Bumped #1 Draft pick in about 6 or 7 years

On the front page there is a story about a kid named Touk Miller. Seriously, this kid can do anything. Far and away the best young player I've seen.

I suspect in the years to come we'll hear a lot about him.

mate hes about 11 are u aware of the development he'll go through before the draft so many kids tear up junior footy but dont get anywhere. and he could get an on going injury which ends his future.

Jack Silvagni Already getting tagged at U-11 level.

Jack Silvagni Already getting tagged at U-11 level.

Hello Touk

 

[WALL-e]

Andrew Jarman's son is made to kick with his left foot in his league and has to come off once he's kicked 10.....he comes off a lot.

McLeods boy is also tearin up the old U10's lol

 

[-VC-]

This thread is really dumb.

haha id like to see an under 11 who could actually tag. under age tagging is a joke it hardly effects the player getting tagged.

I assume the kid will probably head to Maribyrnong College (says he's from Maribyrnong Park FC) for high school.

Maribyrnong College is the first public school in Victoria which the government has turned into an American styled "Special Sport School" were kids have to qualify for their sport and they intergrate training into their weekly school routine, where they actually have proper specialist coaches dedicated to the kids in the sports program, not just PE teachers.

I know a kid at the school in the swimming program, they've got kids with national contracts in the squad. Apparently there's a few kids in junior national soccer teams and there's a heap of kids there who play footy. It'll be interesting to see if they can start to give the kids who aren't quite so privilege and can't afford to go to private schools the same training opportunities

The program has only been going for about 2 years, but this could mean that in a few years the Jets and Cannons TAC sides could be advantaged by having players go through this system in a similar way that the private schools players assist the Eastern suburbs based teams.

Yeh, praying for the F/S rule to still be around when he comes in

But yeh, it's true, they make him kick with his left and come off after 10 goals.

Exactly. It's just like one with Rugby scrum.

Any chance he could earn an early call up? Lets say... this weekend?

So are these kids the future players for Sydney Swans? I mean they've got the gameplan executed already.

 

[Kaladin Stormblessed]

Luckily for him Milburn will be retired when he is old enough to make his debut.

Lucky for Milburn you mean. Jack would've repaid the thug with some interest

How do the private school players help the eastern suburbs teams? They have to play school footy and can rarely play U18's.

Anyone doing a first round phantom draft for 2014?

 

[Macca_]

This is a massive bump, but this is what Touk Miller is up to these days:
- He's 15 years old and playing seniors
- He polled 2nd in the U16's Div 2 League B&F as a bottom age player
- He represented Victoria in the School Sport Championships
- He was selected in the All-Australian side
- He made the Calder Cannons U15's Dick Reynold's Squad
- He plays U15 rep for EDFL

This kid is an absolute freak

This Kids Sounds like a Bloody Beauty.

What kind of player is he?

 

[Hipster Doofus]

Sounds good, but i hope he isn't a kid who dominates when he's 16 and gives it away for other things by the time he turns 18

 

[The Gtrain]

my 16 month old son loves running around with his "My first footy" foam ball, should play a key role in 2027 draft, bookmark it.
i also make him eat his dinner with both hands, awesome skills on both sides.

 

[Enviable Tradition]

It is a shame that kids get tagged at under 11's level. I know this is one of the reasons one of Russel Eberts kids quit footy. He was getting tagged from a very young age because of his dad's name.

 

[Gazza_11]

Heard that Jack Viney just smashes his tags.

I think you mean Darren's son Ben. Andrew's son player for North's under 18s and is eligible this year but its doubtful that he'll be picked up.
