Would be an amazing pick up by the sounds of things, like what I've heard of him
He's a 2021 player

#22 Richard Bartlett
Worked well at stoppages and was one of Western Australia’s best across four quarters. He uses his shoulders and hips well to evade tackles and get out of trouble in tight spaces. He looks dangerous whenever he is near the ball and he had a textbook forward stoppage goal, finding a clear path and reading the tap perfectly 30 metres out to snap around his body and add a much needed West Australian goal in the third term.

#22 Richard Bartlett (East Fremantle)
One of WA’s more productive forwards despite not finding the goals, Bartlett really impressed with his use by hand – sweeping up spilled balls at half-forward and flicking out to teammates on the move. Does not have a huge frame, but his physicality in the contest was a key part of his style of play, allowing him to position best at the drop of the ball. Bartlett’s highlight for the game was an assist to Matthew Johnson, finding him by hand from a forward 50 stoppage. Also rotated through the midfield in the early stages, but found a home forward of centre.
Strong, skillful mid-forward who works well at stoppages and with the AFL academy this year, a lot to work with
He is a great kid and comes from a great family. Haven't seen much of his footy so can't comment on that much, I see him and his parents around the basketball courts mainly. They do a lot for the indigenous in Geraldton.
Fremantle Dockers want Geraldton-based East Fremantle colt Richard Bartlett in Next Generation Academy

Fremantle have applied for Geraldton-based East Fremantle colt Richard Bartlett to be part of their Next Generation Academy.
The 17-year-old Indigenous talent, from Chapman Valley in the Mid West, will join Sharks colts captain Keanu Haddow and teammates Brandon and Chris Walker in the Dockers’ NGA if it gets ticked off by the AFL.
The AFL’s NGA rule changes, which are likely to take effect this year, mean Indigenous talent will be zoned to either Fremantle or West Coast, depending on where they’re located in the State, with the Mid West part of Dockers’ territory.
Bartlett, an exciting midfielder/half-forward who is part of the State Talent Academy, has played two colts games for the Sharks, with coach Adrian Ricciardello hopeful he will play at least another few by season’s end.
He lined up in the Great Northern Football League seniors last weekend but will be available for WAFL colts duties against West Perth at Joondalup’s Provident Financial Oval on August 22.
Next Generation Academies will continue this year but could be reduced - or scrapped altogether - from next season.
The 18 AFL clubs have mixed opinions whether to push forward with the program, with some - including Fremantle who have four NGA graduates on their list - getting more out of it than others.
The Dockers added three NGA products to their squad last year with top-10 pick Liam Henry joining Category-B rookie additions Leno Thomas and Isaiah Butters.
Second-year player Jason Carter, also from the Kimberley zone, became the first NGA graduate to make his AFL debut last season.
Several more are in the mix to get picked up this year including the Walker twins, Haddow and Claremont colts premiership speedster Joel Western.
It means South Fremantle Jesse Motlop, son of former Port Adelaide/North Melbourne forward Daniel, and fellow 2021 draft hopeful, multi-talented Peel and Trinity College ruck Josh Draper, could be lost by the Dockers if the program is cut from next year.
Kobe Farmer is also part of the program but would still qualify for Fremantle under the father-son rule, likewise with Melbourne because his dad Jeff played 100-plus games for both clubs.
West Coast’s best NGA prospect for next year is Trinity skipper and East Perth colt Ethan Regan, who topped WA’s goal-kicking at last year’s national under-16s carnival.
The Eagles have had two NGA draftees in their history, livewire forward Jarrod Cameron, who has played 11 games across the past two seasons, and former player Tarir Bayok.
East Freo gun Chris Walker will miss this morning’s colts clash against Perth at New Choice Homes Park, streamed live and exclusive on thewest.com.au from 9.30am, with concussion and neck issues from round one, but is expected to return after the bye.
Ruckman Tom Muskarovsky is out with an ankle injury, with Cooper Reeves his replacement.
The Sharks (1-2) are coming off their first win of the season, a hard-fought 11-point result over East Perth at Leederville Oval.
The Demons (1-1) had the bye last round after going down to the Royals the previous weekend.

Let's make hay while we can. This was the same thought I had coming into a match at Optus I think in late 2018 where the curtain raiser was the WCE academy v the Freo one and we were up by like 130 points (I.e. this won't last long).

What does this mean exactly? How is this a rule change from the current situation?
Zurgblade mentions him back in 2018 as NGA and is pretty knowladgeable about undarage footy in WA.

I know we have one for the 2015-17 years which I created but it became too cluttered so this thread will be for this year only. Games are already underway to determine who'll take their places per representative sides. Taj Schofield, Riley Thilthorpe, Zach Dumesny and Corey Durdin are names to...www.bigfooty.com
I've never heard of him though.
How is Lachlan McManus tracking?

I’m addition to what others have said, the exchange for WA teams having access to every indigenous kid in the state, we can only grab from 40 onwards. Can’t match a bid inside the top 40.
I haven’t seen confirmation of that rule anywhere.

Yeah it’s not confirmed, the same as having access to all WA indigenous talent instead of just regional areas isn’t confirmed
If my understanding about victorian afl community mentality is right they won't scrap it completely instead they will make the regional NGA similar to metro NGA with matching bid outside pick 40. By that way they will get good talent which they will be losing if they scrap completely. They may lift the range from pick 40 to 25 for regional NGA as there is possibility that SA and WA teams may lose interest in NGA and withdraw from the programme if they realise that they will get only 40 pick onwards.but I may be wrong....

PSA footy: Hamish Wardell-Johnson, son of inaugural Fremantle Docker Leigh, to debut for Wesley College
Jordan McArdleThe West Australian
Fri, 7 August 2020 10:33PMComments
Wesley College will blood the son of an inaugural Fremantle Docker for their Alcock Cup clash against Trinity College on Saturday morning.
Hamish Wardell-Johnson, the son of Leigh who played 11 games in Freo’s debut season in the AFL back in 1995, will get a taste of first XVIII action in the battle of the cellar dwellers at Wesley.
Wardell-Johnson will don the No.31 jersey, the same number his dad wore at the Dockers.
The 16-year-old, who is aligned with South Fremantle where he played one WAFL futures game this year, is in his first season at Wesley after crossing from Somerville Baptist College.
He has battled a quad issue this season but got through his comeback game in the seconds last week.
Wardell-Johnson, who is also a gun cricketer, is one of two confirmed debutants for the home side, with Tim Wildy also named for his first game.
There have been several sons of guns line up in the PSA footy competition this season including Jesse Motlop (son of Daniel), Taj Woewodin (son of Shane), Jackson Merillo (son of Jamie) at Aquinas, Edward Allan (son of Ben) at Scotch and Rhett Bazzo (son of Steve) at Guildford.
Both Wesley and Trinity have done it tough this year and are yet to get off the mark, with 0-5 records and several triple-figure thrashings between them.
Saturday’s clash to go a long way to deciding the dreaded wooden spoon.
Trinity will also have a first-gamer in Preston Campbell, but captain and West Coast Next Generation Academy talent Ethan Regan is still sidelined with an ankle injury.

Which teams have benefited most from NGA, academies the most? Probably the AFL's pets in Northern
Eastern states clubs of Victoria.
I really don't see how NGA is giving Freo a massive boost, yet we are helping kids future prospects, life lessons.
We paid exactly what Henry was worth, and if it wasn't him we still had the same pick to use on another.
Yet we are developing grassroots footy and increasing the depth of the draft.
Clubs have scouts Aus wide, it's not like you can hide talent any more.
