Alvarez would be a good Cat B prospect for us - but we still don't know if Cat B will exist in 2021. I'm not sure why his name isn't being mentioned alongside CWalker and Haddow at least?
Claremont have some great prospects outside of Western wth both Kalin Lane (ruck) who works really well with Joel, Alvarez on the wing, and Van Rooyen (one of the best forwards for next year's draft and is quite close with Western as they also play school footy together). Western was once again BOG in the game on the weekend. Colin Young's son is putting together some good games for Claremont as well.
Anyone heard anything about Dallas McAdam lately?

Chris reckons his twin is a better player and who is also more likely to nominate for the draft.
Yeah Brandon is going inside the first 2 rounds. Chris is tracking to be a rookie at best.

Swan Districts 10.12 (72) d Peel Thunder 8.8 (56)
A pair of draft fancies impressed as Swan Districts ended their season drought.
Big-bodied midfielder Zane Trew made a successful return from injury, with dashing half-back Ty Sears also producing a huge performance in the Swans’ hard-fought 16-point win over Peel at Steel Blue Oval.
Trew, who missed a couple of games with concussion, amassed a team-high 28 touches, laid four tackles and kicked a goal.
Sears was also prominent with 23 touches, eight marks and seven inside 50s.
Draft hopefuls Jack Carroll, Ty Sears and Logan Young impressed for their respective colts sides at the weekend.
Up forward, Josh Middleton (4.2) and Luke Taylor (3.1), the younger brother of GWS Giant Sam, combined for seven goals.
Northern Territory speedster Joseph Salmon played his best game at colts level, with Cian Ehlers and Alec Clark also important.
It was the Swans’ first win in any grade after coming close in the colts against South Fremantle last round before getting overrun in the final term.
Bodie Kitchingman (20 disposals and eight marks) continued his hot form for Peel, with draft hopeful Isiah Winder (28 and five inside 50s) and David Yaccob (29) also finding plenty of it.
Adam Davey, Ethan Donaghy and Dominic Dravitzki also battled hard for the Thunder.
East Fremantle 12.6 (78) d West Perth 8.7 (55)
East Fremantle ended West Perth’s undefeated start to the season with a gutsy 23-point win at Joondalup’s Provident Financial Oval.
The talent-laden Sharks produced their best performance of 2020 to move into the top-four on percentage with a 2-3 record.
A trio of promising youngsters who started training with East Freo’s seniors last week were among the best - Jack Carroll, Finn Gorringe and Brandon Walker.
Carroll (26 disposals and a goal) and Gorringe (17 and six marks) were the stars of the show against a Falcons midfield missing Callum Johnson, who earned a promotion to the reserves.
Fellow draft prospect Walker (23 and nine marks) was at his smooth-moving best off half-back as he closes in on a league berth, while defender Jack Williams made a surprise four-goal cameo up forward.
Jed Hagan, a 15-year-old who isn’t eligible to be drafted until 2022, was lively with 20 disposals, seven marks, four tackles and a goal, with captain Keanu Haddow important down back and fellow Fremantle NGA squad member Chris Walker making a successful return from concussion.
For West Perth, skipper Heath Chapman and 16-year-old Kane Bevanwere outstanding in defence - combining for 19 marks.
Darcy Dixon stood up in in-form forward Corey Rundle’s absence with three goals and ruckman Michael Mallard, Tommy Taylor-Shreeve and Cooper Blackburn (two goals) also did some good things.
Subiaco 14.8 (92) d East Perth 10.7 (67)
Subiaco survived a late scare from co-tenants East Perth to record their fourth win of 2020 and go a step closer to cementing their finals spot.
Lachlan Henderson edged out his namesake Lachlan Vanirsen for best-afield honours with an dominant display at centre-half back.
Henderson, who has been a senior emergency a couple of times already, will be playing league footy by season’s end if he keeps playing performing so well.
The Lions’ back six were so composed all match and Henderson had a lot to do with it, combining nicely with his younger brother Campbell Henderson, Jaxon McGowan and Blake Morris before his concussion.
Morris is expected to miss this weekend after his nasty head knock in the second half.
With star midfielder Matt Johnson missing with a knee issue and Jed Kemp a bit sore in the second half, Vanirsen spent increased time in the centre and made the most of it.
He had easily the most disposals and marks for the Lions with 26 and eight, with the majority of his 23 kicks hitting targets.
Silky-skilled talent Tyler Brockman - the nephew of former Docker/Sun Greg Broughton - was moved into the midfield in the third term by coach Chayce Creedy to great effect, winning plenty of clearances.
Up forward, the goals were shared between promising debutant Sam Broughton, Sandon Page, Jaxon Bilchuris (three goals apiece), Ezekiel Bolton and Cameron Dean (two each).
Page took his season tally to 16 from four matches, second behind Falcons forward Rundle (20 from five), after starting the year in the reserves.
Recruit Jai Jackson got a promotion to the reserves, where he will likely stay for the rest of the season unless he gets a league debut.
Well-built midfielder Josh Hubbard was East Perth’s best with 27 possessions, 11 marks and two goals, with first-gamer Kaden Harbour (three goals), Jake Littleton, Tomas Druzianich, Luke Lombardi and Jason Kissack also decent.
Claremont 11.10 (76) d Perth 4.12 (36)
Reigning premiers Claremont moved to the top of the colts ladder with a comfortable 40-point win over Perth at Revo Fitness Stadium.
Fremantle Next Generation Academy speedster Joel Western was terrific in his return from a minor leg injury, booting three goals to go with 24 touches, eight marks and five inside 50s.
Western played a mix of forward and midfield in his first appearance since round two.
Logan Guelfi, the younger brother of Essendon’s Matt, just gets better every week across half-forward, while Logan Young’s draft stocks also keep rising with a 27-possession, 12-tackle performance.
Zac Mainwaring, the son for late West Coast great Chris, enjoyed his best game at colts level with 24 disposals, eight marks, six inside 50s, four tackles and a goal.
Alex Pearce, from the North Albany footy factory which has produced the Jeremy and Mitch McGovern, Darcy Cameron and Marley Williams, was another stand-out for the Tigers.
Kieran Gowdie chimed in with three majors and bottom-ager Jacob van Rooyen two, while Jack Avery was reliable as ever down back.
The colts competition’s premier ball winner Conor McPartland did what he does best, racking up a game-high 31 touches and a whopping 14 tackles to easily the Demons’ best.
The tough midfielder is enjoying a fine debut season at Perth after crossing from East Fremantle in search of more opportunities, averaging more than 33 possessions and 7.5 tackles.
Deklyn Grocott’s terrific form continued with 21 touches, seven tackles and five marks, with Tony Musa, Jack Evans, Toby Henry and ruckman Jaiden Hunter also tried hard in a losing cause.
Perth’s best two colts-aged players - Logan McDonald and Nathan O’Driscoll - featured in the league side’s important win over Claremont.
O’Driscoll kicked the match-sealing goal on debut, going from colts to league via the reserves in the space of a fortnight.

PSA footy: Aquinas still alive after 85-point thrashing of defending champs Hale
Jordan McArdleThe West Australian
Aquinas officially ended Hale School’s Alcock Cup defence while keeping their own hopes alive, thrashing the PSA powerhouse by 85 points at Craig Oval this afternoon.
The visitors (7-2) equalled ladder leaders Scotch’s (7-1) win tally with the dominant 17.9 (111) to 4.2 (26) result, setting up an exciting finish to the competition.
REWATCH AQUINAS’ WIN OVER HALE IN THE WINDOW ABOVE
The Quinten Lynch-coached side were dominant from start to finish, setting up the triumph with a five-goals-to-one second quarter.
The pressure, work-rate and attack on the contest were all impressive features of Aquinas’ game, resulting in the ball getting locked into their forward 50 for most of the match.
“I thought our pressure around the footy was outstanding, the boys showed a real want to tackle hard and were fierce around the contest,” Lynch said.
The win might have come at a cost with important midfielder Jackson Merillo sustaining an ankle injury which could end his season.
Jesse Motlop was once against the star of the show in attack with a game-high five majors, taking his season tally to a competition-high 40.
He had plenty of help up forward with Jack Norrish (four), Lachlan Turley (three) and Sam Grattidge (two) also among the multiple goal-kickers.

Michael Sellwood deserves a lot of credit for his link-up forward role, presenting well and providing silver services to his deeper teammates.
Captain Taj Woewodin continued his strong campaign with another stand-out performance, rebounding from half-back and using the ball so well by foot.
Speedster Corey Warner was prominent on the inside and outside, with Sam Collins also finding plenty of it.
Harry Cole played a lone hand up forward for Hale, booting three of his school’s four majors and making the most of the limited forward supply.
The margin would have been triple figures if it wasn’t for skipper Lawson Humphries’ poise and class down back.
The silky-skilled talent continually got in the right spots and hit targets heading out of danger.
Menno Inverarity battled hard in a midfield that sorely missed the physical presence of Mitch Barron, with ruckman Bryce McDonald’s tapwork read well by the opposition.
Aquinas have the bye on Saturday and will nervously be awaiting the result of the Scotch versus Wesley clash, with Lynch undecided whether to release his players for colts footy yet.
Their final match of the season is against Christ Church at home on September 5.
Scotch can take the cup outright by winning both of their remaining games against Wesley and Guildford.

Purple Jesus
not jess
I only care about Kobe Farmer. Can't wait to see him running around in purple. Will complete the puzzle imo.

As the rules stand today, if Motlop is a top 5 pick do we actually have access to him given he is a metro NGA talent?
Wouldn't be in our NGA if we didn't have access. He won't be a top 5 pick. Need to see him at Colts and then hopefully for WA rather than just PSA before the hype train goes too far.

Thats not my point.
Isn't there a quirk in the rules as it relates to the metro kids in that we only have limited access? I.e. if they are bid on from pick 40+....
None of that has been confirmed yet (unless they just haven't announced it publicly). I'm not sure how Jesse is in our NGA but I don't think the AFL would allow him to be in the NGA unless they agreed we had access to him first.
For instance Richard Bartlett wasn't in our NGA until the AFL signed off on him confirming we had access.
I could be wrong (because I've yet to see anything official) but this is my read of how it works.
edit - from back in June
Daniel Motlop made a name for himself as a dangerous forward at Port Adelaide and North Melbourne, but the Dockers get first dibs on his teenage son Jesse.
The budding Aquinas College and South Fremantle forward, who was part of the State 16s squad last year, joined Fremantle’s Next Generation Academy this year.

It's possible Jesse's mother lives outside the metro area but Jesse attends Aquinas as a border. That would qualify him as a regional NGA player but afford him all the benefits of a metropolitan education.
They've been living here since Jesse was at least as young as six and his dad was playing with Port Adelaide.

I have heard that Jesse Motlop is more likely to enter the draft than opt in to be picked up by Freo. The Motlop's aren't originally from WA/Perth and have nothing holding them hear, the family are happy to move where ever Jesse gets drafted too.
Pfft, I'm already on him for the Coleman in 2022.
You'd get good odds. Drinks are on you when it happens.
Look forward seeing you at my local sports club.
