4 sons.

I think Cleary's talking about his youngest one (or 2.)

This makes me happy as a Haileyburian.

First pre-season games in the TAC start this Sunday with Calder vs Bendigo and Sandringham vs Dandenong. I’ll be going to the latter since it will be closer for me to get too.

Not expecting many if any of the really good players to play but should still get to see how some kids have come along size wise.

[Red Black and Blue]

Interesting that he has Hill that high, I'd agree but certainly most leaning towards King or even Walsh over him.

It’s pretty tight at this early stage for the 1st round so those claims are a little suprising for me personally but I can still see why a lot of recruiters would have Hill that high

Sounds like we will be targetting a big body midfielder/classy mid with our first round pick this year if i read between the lines regards Dodoro

Or we offer Ollie Wines a shitload and go back2back in 2019

That's pretty crazy, Do you agree with that? Rayner slips to 4ish if the under agers were eligible?

I would have taken Fogarty over Rayner and Fogarty went pick 12. Not sure I can add much to this I can’t really decide who I would take out of my 2 favs from last and this years in Fogarty and King

I think Dodoro would've take Fogarty as well, and we could've at 11.

I’m not puting too much into the results but thought I’d make a list of players who impressed me in the first pre-season games for Sandringham vs Dandenong. Also I’m only noting players who played better than I expected.

This covers both games including 2019 draft hopefuls

Sandringham
2019
Louis Butler
Tyson Milne
Jackson Cowden
Tyson Murray
William Mackay
Corey Watts

2018
Alastair Richards
Liam Stocker
Cam Dickie
James Rendell

Jeremy Burton
Cody Weightman
Jarryd Barker
Jack Toner
Kyle Hindle
Matt Johnson

2018
Daniel Frampton
Matthew Cumming
Braden Nelmes
Lachlan McDonnell
Bailey Schmidt
Lachlan Stenning

Aaron Darling was also very impressive in his first game back which I’ve mentioned. I’ll be watching Calder vs Eastern and Murray vs Dandenong next week. Hopefully Mason Fletcher gets a run

Is Daniel Frampton related to Port's ruckman?

I don’t think so, the Port Frampton played in WA

Fair enough. Just don't think it's a very common name. They could be cousins haha

 

[RedmanWasHere]

I think Frampton is a reasonably common English surname but having said that, I don't know any others with it other than Peter, Billy and Billy's younger brother John.

Anyone worth keeping an eye on at the Knights yet D_P_S? My new place is right near Preston oval so am pondering catching a few games.

My main 3 from last year are
Tom McKenzie
Braedyn Gillard
Harrison Grace

Gillard dominated last year he has a ready made body for a mid and can go forward and kick goals

McKenzie played half back but I think he will get more midfield time, he played in the all stars game so is highly rated

Grace has a lot of potential he is a nice size and moves well, looks to be growing and I’m intrigued to see how he progresses this year because he could surprise

 

[eDPS]

Tom Lewis also another good performer, he really impressed me in the 17s All-Stars game last year, tough midfielder who played with Houlahan and Zerk last year with Sturt

 

[eDPS]

Tylar Watts accurately listed as a surprise packet, has a lot of development in him and I really liked his attitude to the contest last year for a taller player.

Saw them playing last weekend. Geez there were a lot of kids who looked good and some solid units out there. Many didn't look like kids as it were.
