Training 2026 Preseason

[Wizard]

Feedback on Shaunny Macs lad?

 

[s_wd6]

Nothing much to add training wise apart from likeing the look of a young bloke with bushy, light hair looking very good. Pace and a good kick, though slight and average height. He as were a couple of others were wearing orange bibs. In desperation to find out who he was I asked Brett Retichi ( media guy). He said that he was one of our NGA kids though he didn’t know his name.

Omac Jr?

Sounds like Lucas Robinson, great signs

 

[Taylor]

Lucas Robinson wouldn't look average height unless he was rubbing shoulders with Voss and Treacy.

 

[Big Animal]

Ollie's not the only kid wearing orange in those photos with a sports famous relative. Surprised the media isn't making a fuss of it.

 

[BettercallSaul]

I have discovered It was actually Ollie McManus.

"Next Generation Academy youngsters Oliver McManus, Lucas Robinson, Finlay Yeo and Josh Nathan joined the senior squad for training and threw themselves into every aspect of the session. The Dockers have been giving their Academy kids the chance to spend time with the club this summer in a bid to enhance their development."

Obviously Robinson is well known by now, and Father-Son Ollie McManus will be an overager heading into 2026. Regarding Yeo and Nathan, a guide as to where they sit. Part of the WA summer squad.

An update which should now make it clear who isn't PSA in 2026 and therefore available for colts full time. (Fingers crossed)

Parents and fans can correct. It's a team effort here.

A few overagers added as well. I think they will play colts. (?)

Are you referring to Yeo?

Christopher Scerri (Northern Bullants)
Small Forward | 177cm | 06/07/2003

Scerri rose from local Under 19 footy at Strathmore to become the Northern Bullants’ best first year player in 2025. The speedy small forward had signed on for Richmond VFL after the Bullants’ state league departure, but is now showing his wares out west with Fremantle. The Dockers had Scerri complete pre-draft testing and medicals, after he helped took the EDFL flag back at Strathmore. The competitive 22-year-old averaged 12.4 touches and kicked five goals in 18 VFL games this year. His speed and dare have caught the eye while training with the Dockers.

 

[anchor man]

People talking about Scerri being short have to remember that Deadly Dudley id short in comparison to Scerri
Deadly is only 168 compared to 177.

Dudley is tiny - what is the point you’re trying to make…That Scerri is tall if compared to the smallest bloke on an afl list?

Some saying that Scerri is tiny. Very small and I am just pointing out he is tall in comparison to Dudley.

 

[Docker82]

177cm is in the normal range among small players really. Most lists have 4-5 players around that height or slightly less.

Dudley is genuinely the smallest player on an AFL list currently.

 

[Randomizor]

So wait a minute, we have both the smallest player and tallest player on our list currently? It’s like collecting a set

social media team really needs to grab a photo of them together.

Quick, somebody work out the median height for AFL players and see if we have the exact middle point as well!

 

[Suma Says]

They did. Unfortunately it was poorly cropped

189cm. Hayden Young

I swear we had this before with Sandi and Ballas. A few shorter AFL players around now though.

Like Ballas getting carried off by Sandi.

? Only going off photos but I haven’t seen a kid look like an AFL player at his age since Tom was dominating neafl at 16-17

Floor? If his ceiling is Tom Green we should be stoked. His floor is any larger slower inside mid trying to get a game in modern AFL (Robertson, Erasmus, Brodie etc etc). I should put an asterisk for the Brodie comparison in that he is far far better defensively.

Yeah floor is definitely that Brodie type but I’m hoping there’s no ceiling that’s why I went with Green They remind me of each other so much at the same age although Lucas looks a lot fitter at this stage which is only a good thing
