Not quite right. They are not the top 10. Just 10 prospects to keep an eye on and alphabetically listed. As the headline clearly states.

Here are 10 prospects (in alphabetical order) to watch for next year that will capture plenty of attention throughout 2023.

If he was going out with a girl from Frankston, she'd be his Frangalas.

If he was going out with a girl from Frankston, she'd be his Frangalas.

And when he hits it raw he's Frangalas.

I think Harley Reid must have moved into my neighbourhood. RMC surveillance van has been parked around the corner last couple of weeks.

I prefer to think he and eDPS are doing shifts inside the van with a bank of computers and a long-lens camera.

 

[RedmanWasHere]

As it's 2023 in the OP's home state, it's Harley Reid time.

Well, it is time for those who want to tank to get him.

Anyone know if the Sandy boys squad has been released anywhere?

 

[Yoda_]

cut and paste the same request for the last decade"who are the best big bodied midfielders available this years draft?"

 

[pushintheback]

does anyone know what AFL clubs the academy players are training at. From memory it usually happens in Jan/Feb.

Usually the Vic academy kids train with the AFL club tied to their team. Oakleigh kids at Collingwood, Sandringham kids at St Kilda, Jets kids at Essendon (I think). NGA kids will train with their club of course, same with Father Sons.

My guess in WA is that most WAFL clubs are aligned with one AFL team or the other, so kids probably train at the AFL club their WAFL club is aligned to.

 

[I drive a truck]

Cooper Simpson (Stingrays) training with Dees and Archer Reid (Power) training with Hawks I am told.

We had Dursma and Watson last year.

 

[Mutineer]

Ashton Moir training with the Crows.

 

[Mutineer]

Worth mentioning that 3 of SA's top prospects are also members of the Crows Academy Ashton Moir, Kane McAuliffe and Ben Ridgway as well as several other prospects, the interesting one Eli Redman.

Crows Academies squads selected

Talented footballers from all over the state have been included in the Crows Academies

The Saints still found ways to ensure their advantage was impregnable and most of them were down to young gun Eli Redman, who had a day out.

The younger brother Essendon star Mason Redman showed he is more than capable of making a name for himself.

Redman generated plenty of electricity on the wing and used his speed to catch the Roos on the backfoot and create countless entries.

He also produced a special moment for the highlight reel when instead of passing off to a teammate, the Under 18 kept running, took a long shot at goal and judged the wing perfectly by placing the ball outside the right point post before it swung back through the middle.

It was a moment of brilliance that lit up a quiet third term before the Saints went on another charge with a tailwind.

Thank you.

If he has his brother's craziness, watch out.

 

[Mutineer]

Best get Mason's autograph on a contract pronto or the Crows will come calling

 

[RUNVS]

Before bids and possible priority picks Sydney will have pick 18 so we won't have too much to get excited about in the first round.

 

[Jen2310]

No doubt pies will get some chargers boys. Its just the way.
I'll keep an eye out.
