I don't want to get peoples hopes up too much, so I'll say he isn't in my top 50 for next year Kobe Williams, but he is on my radar of around top 100-odd for next year, so he would need to show improvement to get drafted, just so you know...

Do we have any Father sons that your excited about coming through then Davo-27 even if they are under 16 or younger now.

Both Shane and Olivia has stated publicly if any of there boys make it at AFL, they feel it will be Ben Crawford.

Charlie doesn’t seem into footy as much as his dad and turned 18 earlier this year.

Twin are not footy fans and are into anime and comicons via a radio interview with Crawf.

Well there's Kobe Williams who could be draft worthy in 2025, there's Cooper Hodge who could be draft worthy in 2026, we will have to wait and see how they go handling the pressure of their draft year, I have not seen or heard of any others on the radar yet.
 
Jordan Lewis’s Boys…. Jordan said Hawks fans could be very excited if his boys decided to take up AFL. Appears they already love footy and does skills work.
Jordan was a lovely kick so no doubt the boys will be also. Not like Finn Maginess' dad who by all accounts (Dermie) was not a great kick.
 
What about Ned Maginness? Any updates on him?
He played 3 games for Sandy Dragons and was their best player in all 3 games. BOG against Eastern, his last game for Sandy. Played one game for Box Hill and since then has played at Old Scotch. Been in the best players in 4 of his 8 games. Not sure of what he is doing back at Scotch, unless it is to minimise the likelihood of an early bid for him.

For anyone who was not there.

Interesting that JB said "The gentleman, James Hird" instead of "Future disgraced drug cheat, James Hird"
 
Port confirming what we suspected, officially won't be nominating Ky Burgoyne. Will be interesting to see where he decides to play next year.


AFL Draft 2024: Port Adelaide won’t nominate Rome Burgoyne, Louie Montgomery, Ky Burgoyne and Oliver Francou as father-sons in the national draft

Port Adelaide has four players available under the father-son rule in this year’s draft – but will any of the famous names land at the club? Get the latest from Alberton.

Port Adelaide will not nominate any of its four father-son candidates for next week’s national draft but a Next Generation Academy prospect could find his way onto the Power’s list.

With the player pool considered to be one of the strongest in years, the Power has given up automatic access to Woodville-West Torrens halfback Rome Burgoyne (Peter), North Adelaide utility Louie Montgomery (Brett) and West Adelaide defender Ky Burgoyne (Shaun) – all sons of 2004 premiership players.

Roosters midfielder Oliver Francou’s dad, Josh, was runner-up in the Brownlow Medal at Port Adelaide in 2002.

Rome – the brother of Power wingman Jase Burgoyne – is the highest rated of the four and it is understood a couple of other clubs have shown interest in him ahead of the draft.

The Power can still select any of the four with its picks, if they are still available, but cannot match any selection from rival clubs.

Port has already announced Francou will play for its SANFL side in 2025 if he is not picked up by another club next week.

After playing 11 games for North Adelaide’s Under 18 in 2024, averaging 24.2 disposals. 6.4 clearances and 4.9 tackles per game, Francou said he was excited about the prospect of having a crack for the Magpies in the SANFL.

“I’m really excited to play for the same club my dad had an AFL career at,” Francou told Port’s website.

“If the draft doesn’t go my way this year, I want to give myself the best chance to develop in a SANFL system at an AFL club.

“I hope I can contribute to the club well, and I can’t wait to get started.”

While the Power has not nominated any of its four father-son prospects, Next Generation Academy member Benny Barrett could find his way to Alberton next week.

If the South Adelaide prospect’s name is not called during the national draft the Power can automatically add him as a rookie.

The 174cm left-footer, of Papua New Guinean heritage, has been touted as Port’s best academy prospect this year.

Impressing in the Panthers’ reserves and under-18s this year with his x-factor, Barrett is viewed as a potential small forward at AFL level.

He has also played through the midfield and won the best-and-fairest for the SANFL under-16s in 2022.

Adelaide has nominated Tyler Welsh, son of ex-Crows forward Scott Welsh.

The Power has picks No. 13, 29, 36 and 50 while the Crows have No. 4 and 64.
 
He played 3 games for Sandy Dragons and was their best player in all 3 games. BOG against Eastern, his last game for Sandy. Played one game for Box Hill and since then has played at Old Scotch. Been in the best players in 4 of his 8 games. Not sure of what he is doing back at Scotch, unless it is to minimise the likelihood of an early bid for him.
Ned played as an “over ager” for Sandy in the June games they played when their list was at its weakest due to APS/AGS and National Champs.

Once the list became “thicker”, and they brought back their gun players, he was not required again.

Neither Ned or Ky will make an AFL list in 2025 because there are 100+ more suitable players available to be drafted in the next 2 weeks.

They should both end up on a SANFL / VFL list next year.

Assuming that they nominate for the draft and aren't selected. If they improve dramatically at state level and are AFL prospects I assume that father son rights don't apply?

They should be aiming to lift there games, mid season draft should be the their goal.

I believe so, which is why Ned didn't nominate last year when he had even less chance of a Father Son selection.
 
Amazing how many father/sons are going to miss in this years draft....including Ky and Ned


This year’s AFL Draft is also littered with famous names.

Who is your club eligible to select come November?

THE 2024 CROP​

– with Chris Cavanagh

Levi Ashcroft (Brisbane Lions)​

Some believe the Victorian could be the best of the bunch in this year’s draft class. The son of three-time Brisbane premiership player Marcus and the younger brother of 2022 No.2 draft pick Will, Levi can play midfield or forward roles, has clean hands, makes good decisions and can hit the scoreboard.

Tyler Welsh (Adelaide)​

A promising 191cm key forward, Welsh announced himself in an under-18 national championships game against Vic Country last year as he booted five goals. He has great marking hands, nice speed and is generally a good kick at goal. His father Scott played for North Melbourne, Adelaide and the Western Bulldogs but Tyler is only eligible as a father-son for the Crows.

Ben Camporeale (Carlton)​

A classy midfielder who wins his own ball and makes good decisions, the right-footer won the best-on-ground medal in the under-17 Futures game on AFL Grand Final day last year. He is the son of 1995 Blues premiership player Scott and is considered to sit slightly ahead of his twin brother Lucas.

Lucas Camporeale (Carlton)​

A left-footed wingman or half-back who was prominent like his brother in the under-17 Futures game last year, Lucas has nice composure and good skills. The Glenelg product is also eligible to join the Blues as a father-son, given his father Scott played 233 AFL games for the club.

Elwood Peckett (St Kilda)​

A high half-forward or inside midfielder, Peckett has started the season strongly with the Dandenong Stingrays in the Coates Talent League. He possesses good athletic traits and has some breakaway power. Elwood is the son of Justin Peckett, who played 252 games for the Saints and finished second in the club’s best-and-fairest in 1994.

River Stevens (North Melbourne)​

The son of two-time Kangaroos premiership player and former captain Anthony, Stevens is a 176cm small forward who snagged three goals from 15 disposals for the Geelong Falcons in round 2 of the Coates Talent League. He works hard on the lead and has good finishing skills with ball in hand.

Noah Yze (Melbourne)​

He is the son of Richmond coach Adem, but Noah could soon find himself at rival club Melbourne where his father played 271 games. The Oakleigh Chargers product plays in a similar way to his dad as a mid-sized lead-up marking forward and stands 190cm tall.

Ky Burgoyne (Hawthorn/Port Adelaide)​

The son of Shaun ‘Silk’ Burgoyne, Ky is father-son eligible for both Hawthorn and the Port Adelaide given his dad played well over 100 games for both clubs. He is a competitive defender who reads the play well. He also has speed to burn, having finished second in the 20m sprint during pre-season testing in South Australia with a time of 2.88 seconds.

Rome Burgoyne (Port Adelaide)​

The son of 270-game Power champion and 2004 premiership player Peter, Rome is also the younger brother of current Port Adelaide wingman Jase. He’s a 182cm rebounding defender who is clean with his disposal and regularly makes good decisions.

Louie Montgomery (Port Adelaide)​

A versatile 184cm player who can be used in defence, through the midfield or forward, Montgomery is quite athletic, reads the play well and can win his own footy. His father Brett played for both the Western Bulldogs and Port Adelaide, but Louie is only father-son eligible for the Power.

Oliver Francou (Port Adelaide)​

A midfielder from North Adelaide, Francou possesses good endurance and is hard at the footy. He is the son of 156-game Power champion Josh, who was a three-time Showdown Medal winner and was an All-Australian in 2002.

Isaac Barry (Sydney)​

A 180cm prospect from the Oakleigh Chargers, Barry managed just one Coates Talent League game last year due to injury but returned as a 19-year-old this season. He is the son of Sydney’s 2005 premiership hero, Leo.

Ned Maginness (Hawthorn)​

The son of two-time Hawks premiership player Scott and the younger brother of current Hawthorn midfielder Finn, Ned returned to the Sandringham Dragons as a 19-year-old this year after being overlooked in last year’s draft. He’s a 194cm big-bodied inside midfielder or running wingman.

Alfie Wojcinski (Geelong)​

A 181cm midfielder or half-back who is part of the Geelong Falcons program, Alfie is the son of three-time Geelong premiership player David.

Alex Alessio (Essendon)​

A 199cm developing ruckman or key forward, Alessio is still relatively raw but is coming along with his game at the Calder Cannons. He is the son of 2000 Essendon premiership player Steven.

Noah Caracella (Essendon)​

A high forward who reads the game well, the 188cm Caracella is playing for the Geelong Falcons this year. He is the son of former Essendon, Brisbane Lions and Collingwood midfielder Blake, but is only father-son eligible for the Bombers where his dad is the current VFL coach.

Boston Everitt (St Kilda)​

A 183cm forward, Everitt is linked up with the Gold Coast Suns Academy as well as St Kilda. He is the son of former St Kilda, Hawthorn and Sydney ruckman Peter ‘Spida’ Everitt, but is only father-son eligible for the Saints.
