I’ve tracked a few as the games gone on, trying to do so for the Crows NGA players as well but they have struggled compared to the West Adelaide boys. I’ll have a mini review for each player once the game is finished
and are they eligible nga players? I know they’ve played for port in an nga game but sometimes they do while not eligible..
for instance hunter carter is in our academy and as far as I’m aware not eligible for us to draft (despite his dad playing over 170 games for port. Yet again go * your self AFL)

Thx
I’ve switched over to Norwood vs South Adelaide for the 2nd half which is pretty much all Port. I’ll still put some details up for the first game but feel I got enough out of the first half to cover the standouts.
NGA players from West Adelaide, Norwood and South Adelaide
Was brought to my attention earlier that despite playing in the NGA squads it won’t mean they all will be NGA prospects but here is a small rundown on each player that where listed
West Adelaide
Kobe Ryan
Disposals 36
Goals 1.4
Classy tallish wingman who moves well and covers the ground well, took a fanastic mark one handed going back with the flight, oozes talent but kicking can be iffy
Fraser Bone
Disposals 6
Goals 0.1
Bone took a fantastic pack mark early in the game and showed good athleticism, don’t have his hit out numbers but did well in the ruck, went forward at times but didn’t do a whole lot
Charbel Ouiess
Disposals 8
Goals 1.0
The athletic Full Forward kicked the first goal of the game showing good speed and ground level and although flying for marks didnt really take any, tried a bit too much to do the freaky stuff but certainly has some talent
Jameson Whitbourne
Disposals 14
Goals 1.0
Busy wingman who can go in hard and is a good decision maker, lack of pace might be an issue
Norwood
Riley Verrall
Disposals 25
Goals 1.0
Clearances 7
Big bodied and explosive inside mid who looked impressive, not the most silky skilled but certainly a good size already and smart around stoppages
Max Kelly
Disposals 24
Goals 0.1
Clearances 5
Busy and creative midfielder who can push forward, looks composed and gets around the ground well
Taj Rahui
Disposals 21
Goals 2.1
Clearances 5
Had a stronger first half which I missed but from what I did see he moves well in the midfield and was clean around the ball. Medium sized mid
South Adelaide
Jaiden Major
Disposals 33
Clearances 8
Great stoppage craft in the midfield and got around the ground well so not just a pure taller inside type, is tall and has a bit of size about him but it wasn’t his size that was the main attribute at stoppages it was more his timing and clean hands.

thanks. Appreciate the input. feel free to continue to stop by anytime, love the updates.
did you catch much of Montgomery? He was number 6 for north Adelaide. I saw him do a nice chip pass on his left but only caught a bit of the game.
do you have any heights (or rough guesses of any of these boys?)
it’s really hard to tell their heights without a reference point.
Rahui looked quite small. He looked quick tho. Verrall looked huge out there. He’s going to fill out.
Archie Richardson (15) 16d 1g and Snelling and will Verrall are all in our NGA as well. I quite liked what I saw of Archie.
magor looked a real footballer.
Yeah I don’t have access to the height and weights and many may have to wait until the 16s champs are on.
Rahui looked small compared to the likes of Verrall but he is certainly medium size for that age especially for a mid.
I didn’t see much of Montgomery but noticed his smart positioning around stoppages as a wingman and was on the move a lot which I liked

Can someone please give me an idea of how this NGA thingy works, do we have the opportunity to call dibs on certain players and if so how many and when do we have to call the dibs (if that's the case).

do you have any idea of who of our Next Gen academy is actually available to us or how to find that info?
all I can find is this

Thanks mate. Looking forward to finding out we have none of them available to us for some random loophole reason.
Rankine and Milera would have been in our team if we had the same rules the Victorian teams do, and I’m unsure why lukosius the son of a Lithuanian wasn’t available to us. I mean sure his Dad played sanfl but that hasn’t ruled out plenty of similar examples around the league.
was Luko born in Lithuania?
IIRC if you've been born overseas or both of your parents have, you qualify for NGA.
I think the rules differ between the amount of opportunities usually offered to people of their background.
Borlaise qualifies for the crows because he was born overseas.

Nope. From the link in my last post to the resources thread in the Draft and Trading Board.
Qualified NGA Players include Indigenous players, players who were born in Africa, Asia or a Culturally and Linguistically Diverse (CALD) country, and players who have a biological parent who was born in either Africa, Asia or a CALD country.

Guess Luko just isn't as culturally or linguistically diverse enough to qualify. At least Borlaise clearly is.
Yeah Hunter Carter looks like a likely type
yep.
his dad played 170 games for port and isn’t eligible by the way.
if the Victorian teams had the same father son rules as us, Gary Ablett would have only just snuck in, Hawkins wouldn’t have come close
Daniher wouldnt have come remotely close for Essendon.
I suspect that 90% of father sons wouldn’t have been eligible.
