Yeah I know it's still 2025 but the discussions have already begun.
Jasper Chellappah has three WA boys in his too early top 10, with Lucas Robinson at 7.

Welcome to the club Tylar
As a 27 year old he adds some maturity albeit inexperienced at AFL level (35 games) due to a combination of a late start to his career (drafted as a rookie by Richmond in 2022 as a 24 year old) and an ACL injury in 2024
Found a more offensive edge to his game post...
...life and legacy—from his early days with The Easybeats to producing for AC/DC and crafting iconic hits. It also marks his first public reflection on longtime collaborator George Young. Together, the single and podcast reintroduce Vanda as not just a producer, but a powerful artist with a message.
North Melbourne, West Coast and the Western Bulldogs are chasing Tylar Young from Richmond to bolster their defensive stocks, according to Jon Ralph. Out of contract but not a free agent so would require a trade.
Thats right peasants, Shaun Mannagh has been voted best young player by the coaches.
Amazing feat for a 28 year old.
Come in here and pass on your congratulations to the young fella.
...the Western Bulldogs, at Etihad Stadium.
Tightly contested all afternoon, Melbourne very nearly found themselves in a winning position—until a young man in his first season managed to kick a spectacular goal to win the game for the Bulldogs. The goal was so celebrated that it later went on...
Last night's game whilst disappointing and very winnable showed us the reality of supporting a young team which for better or worse we are.
A young team cannot win without one of the two things below happening if they're playing a mature side having a red hot crack.
1. Every senior player (for...
Anyone figured out this Dutch Minty blind item yet? All the guesses I can come up with don’t quite fit (either haven’t been with their partner that long/not hosting an event that big etc)
Been a while since we've seen something like McQualter just allowing unspeakable things to happen to Sandy Brock.
It doesn't always end badly. Young Matthew Scarlett in 1998 was left to handle Matthew Lloyd and gave up 6 big ones. But Geelong won that one in a final round upset.
Tim McGrath...
Who do you think it is and why? Or how would you rank them?
Under-24s only, so it's between:
Jacob van Rooyen
Jed Walter
Shannon Neale
Calsher Dear
Sam Darcy
Logan McDonald
Aaron Cadman
Riley Thilthorpe
Jamarra Ugle-Hagan
Nate Caddy
Harrison Jones
Josh Treacy
Harry Armstrong
Mitch Georgiades
The opposite of the OLD thread.
Clearly.
Folk in FB groups recalling memories and happenings of suburbs from days gone by.
EG talking about former businesses and the then just built homes.
I'm doing some research into VFL/AFL players who died young.
I didn't feature several players from pre 1940 when, sometimes players even died during their playing career, or not long after.
Please share your stories and memories.
We have a bit of a young midfield group, and a number of them will make it at AFL, and others won't. I'm using 150 games by the end of their career as the pass mark.
It doesn't have to mean that they play the 150 games with us, but throughout their career total.
Found this finding staggering. Usually young people are less conservative then older people (for numerous economic and cultural reasons). And this is still true of females. However, this poll asking australians whether they would support trump or not finds that not only do young men not support...

Sure, Cripps has won x2 Brownlow Medal's. He's a 4 time All Australian. And that's all great. But I wasn't necessarily wrong...
So Blues have told Young (along with Kennnedy) that he can go look elsewhere ... contracted until end of 2026
Acquired from Dogs for a 3rd rounder at the end of 2021 and now played 3 seasons with the Blues
What's the story Blues fans?
Who do you have waiting in the wings as key defensive...
