If we do get Kobe Williams as a F/S, we will have to celebrate his first goal with the shotgun!

For those interested -

He would have fit in well with our small forwards today.

Silk's youngest Nixie had her ninth birthday today- second photo in his post online was of her with the Wiz

Would love a father-daughter recruit down the pipeline!

 

[Davo-27]

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.

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.

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 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.

For those interested -

the shotgun at 1:40 has aged well. Very, very good player. Absolutely instrumental in our 08 flag campaign

 

[The Seaword]

The Dew and Williams goal in the 2008 grand final is the greatest goal I've seen.

I still think as he was lying on the ground after he kicked it he took a sniper position and fired a shot! Look at the replay.

 

[CliffMcTainshaw]

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.

It's not looking good for him.

For anyone who was not there.

Interesting that JB said "The gentleman, James Hird" instead of "Future disgraced drug cheat, James Hird"

 

[caseman2]

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

Hand size anyone?

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.
