Excuse my ignorance, but who is the ruck coach? (the big guy in the video)

Duke Marshall-Orr (Coffs Breakers/Northern Beaches) - Melbourne Grammar/St Kilda City https://aflnorthcoast.com.au/2024/12/14/swans-academy-selects-our-talented-juniors/?fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAaY4Avnd_x0XWN6wTDRdl-xciofWL4m32G4sZ19XD098ec5ltqh3U5KNDqg_aem_hSNqehrfy6oqXk5BCX75IQ

do you have any of the 2027 Swans academy kids names? They have a few guns boarding at Melbourne Grammar who can really play

Further to this, I think Finn will end up as the 2nd/back up ruck for Oakleigh this season...not bad for a bottom-ager!

Angus and JT are also at Balwyn...played U/14s this year to moderate/limited success. Tritt and Johnny both played up in the U/15s (Hawthorn/Carey and Balwyn/Scotch). Both are excellent prospects. I really like Finn, 195cm and covers the ground really well. Needs to keep working hard on...

a few more from Metro: Thomas Tritton - Hawthorn Citz Finn O'Callaghan - Ashburton Johnny Miller - Balwyn

They will all get through most likely.

I think some of the more advanced kids are already through, so they wanted to see some of the others with extra game time. Jack, Luke, Ryder etc all very solid. Cooper was ok, didn’t see those trademark runs though. Ted had a few possessions, but generally quiet. He still needs more time (along...

True. To be fair, a lot of the better kids had cut time…including Jack, Luke D, Ryder Brown and a few others.

Jen2310 Eli kicked 4 at FF and looked strong and energetic despite the conditions. Is starting to get a fair bit of arrogance (in a good way) about him.

:thumbsu: Even had Ash Close excited

A really strong hitout today in trying conditions. Anyone want to guess who impressed the most?

Gary is part of the Eddie Betts Foundation...very skillful and elusive. Caulfield GS/Ashburton

Yes it is.

Balwyn/Scotch

Bottom ager (u/15 playing in U/16s in 2025)with a bullet left foot and a leap like Tony Modra

Nice Jen…that cover pic is one of my boys Johnny Miller. He will be some player

I finally have the list for Oakleigh. Will edit and post tomorrow 👍

How many XXIII's you reckon you've done?

Too many “hill sprints” at Oakleigh training on Wednesday night 🤣

Update here Redman...apparently training at Eastern Ranges AFootballParent can confirm?

Sorry if that came across wrong. I was not trying to be rude.👍

It’s not really. Spending time in an age group across different comps/formats give you a good indication of who’s matured early. We look at parents, look at shoe size, look at shoulder span, look at running style or the way they cover the ground….plenty of tells. Even a late birthday makes a...

Correct...still so much development to go for a lot of these boys.

train for 5 months...play 2 games. Ridiculous. At least the kids will be fit for school/club

And, you need to be playing in the state of your Academy…not spending 3 years boarding in Melbourne and playing for a CtL club
