It's laughable tbh, Daniel Wells was better at the same age.

The way they are hyping him, you'd think he was single digits for the brownlow.................


O'Meara is considerably better. Them basing it on his NEAFL form is ridiculous, EFL and VAFA Div 1 sides would annihilate alot of the sides in that competition, and he had the advantage of playing in a side of AFL footballers in it.

What would be our expectations be if the North reserves were playing in the EFL with McDonald in the side?........

You would think it will take Martin sometime to get use to the extra physicality of the Afl and the lack of space/time.

Did Martin ever play senior WAFL?

Putting talent aside for a sec the kid has the desire that we all crave for our players to have.
Yep, it is no wonder he has a permanent smile on his face. It shouldn't be understated either how important that is. To put in the effort required to be an elite player in this league you have to absolutely LOVE your job. Just look at Boomer. He has said time and time again, if he ever stops loving the game, he'll retire immediately.

l read somewhere that Luke will be one of 3 draftees that Emma Quale will be writing about through the year, at the end of the year at some point at least so another quality read still to come.

It really is another bullshit award with asshats judging it.

With ppl like Bartlett and Healy judging it.

Anyone from GC or GWS will be your best bet.
All AFL awards are useless, filed alongside the TV Week Logies. AFLPA MVP probably the only one with merit.
