Love your work DPS. I read everything you write. You are very accurate and fair with your appraisal of the kids in NAB League.

Serong has a terrific vertical leap and is easily a better athlete than both Ainsworth and Higgins. I don’t remember Ainsworth having a very good top age year. He spent time injured and time suspended and Power were very ordinary that year. He was trying to play mid to show recruiters that he...
Bottom aged at 15s carnival at Gippy Power they had gps trackers attached and he was second in the carnival only to Duursma for distance covered, metres per minute and average speed. AFL fitness guru put up the data at the coaches’ meeting on the final day. I think it is perception only, that he...
Number 6 in marks.
Ridley, Battle, Duursma, Rotham, Stack & then Walsh.
Not to split hairs. He is the clear leader at this stage.

These stats are highly over rated. One defender kicks safe sideways kicks hitting easy uncontested players and another goes for slicing attacking kicks because that is his role. They mean very little.

Thomas will be considered more as he moves into the midfield. He is definitely one of the best in this draft class. Playing mainly forward, he is not getting the opportunity to show his all round ability. It is a bit easier for the boys strolling around the midfield without an opponent to rack...
Flanders is a power athlete. He is spending more time in the middle to show his range of skills. He likes 1v1 contests in the forward half. He rarely gets beaten. Should kick more goals than he does with his strength and speed. I don’t think Gippsland Power isolate him enough. Defenders always...
Sam Fletcher was a highly rated junior. All Australian Under 15s, AFL Academy Level 1 without playing a game in the Under 16 National Champs. Injured for much of his bottom aged year of TAC Cup. Injured again this year but came back late in the year to play an important role in Stingrays...
Greetings KM. Do you know how the draft nights will work this year? What is the difference between being a rookie and being on the main list? Is it just money?

Next season the boys from NT, QLD, Tas & NSW will get more exposure due to the revamped TAC Cup. I’m not sure what it will be called. The Northern AFL clubs’ academies will be in it. They won’t be playing against men, but will be playing against the best kids in the land apart from SA and WA...
Oakleigh"s top age 'stars' were very disappointing. Collier Dawkins had numbers but went went missing when it counted. Ross couldn't get going, Ayton~Delaney tried hard but has little

He looks like he has not been at his best all year. He's one who would have to be selected on potential. I would pick him late.

Very few decent tall defenders in this year's crop. It makes it difficult to judge the forwards fairly and accurately.

Seen Matty Rowell since he played bottom age Vic 12s. He is a star. Bottom aged Vic 15s kicked 5 in the grand final. Robbed of best player in the 15s (top age) national carnival. Clear stand out. He is tracking as well a any kid I have ever seen. He must start in the middle. If he was not at...
Bit harsh. The kid has been injured and can't get on the park. In his last game he had 20 or nearly, to half time before leaving the ground yet again. Last year as a bottom ager he regularly had 30+.
