Some of the team boards have a dedicated father son thread, where the first post is a sticky where every child is listed with their birthday and their draft year.

Another excellent performance and one of Metro's best on the day. This was a typical Lev game, as he outworked his opponents and ran himself into the ground to make contest after contest, finding a stack of footy n the process. His disposal was neat and creative as always, and when he was presented with an opportunity to hit the scoreboard late he made no mistake.

Has he got some growing to do ? Seems a more rangy type than Will.

Stopped growing at 15. Been the same height on every team sheet and official CTL measurement day since.

He’s also got a stockier build than Will.

A bit of chat how good we hope they can be if they ever decide to play footy is always going to happen, but keep it as the kid of player x is going to be awesome

And following their performance once they are in academies is fair enough.

But adults posting names and birthdays of kids they have no link to, that's verging on stalking. And adults stalking kids is ugly.

Makes me uncomfortable.

I would delete "verging on". It's creepy. And in these days where identity theft is an issue, you could argue it maybe opens up other issues.

(in the way he plays) in that video. Skilful, always in the right places to get the ball and composed with the ball. If he can get to that level of player for us what a great asset to the club he'll be.

I know I have a habit of offending and here I’m genuinely trying to be sensitive but surely if indigenous players qualify for NGA they’ve got to have at least 50% heritage if that’s what you call it. I mean some of the people that are claiming to be indigenous (and I don’t mean solely in relation to AFL) is a bit sus. No jokes we had an applicant for a job where I work and the guy looked Irish with red hair and he claimed indigenous status with citing like 5%.

Outside of AFL, but does anyone know at what point one can claim indigenous heritage?

I agree with you totally. My daughter qualified for a private school with both her primary school grades and her sporting performance. A girl that had been in ever class with her through Primary School missed out in both categories but her mother, a teacher at the primary school, decided to say they were indigenous and qualify that way. So a red headed, freckle faces, white as a ghost girl with parents the same were accepted as private schools in Qld had to have 3% indigenous pupils. I absolutely support pathways for indigenous kids especially those that want to improve themselves from a cultural background lacking professional support but I recognise there is some activities within the system that turns others against the process.

In order to be eligible for schemes, grants etc aimed at indigenous participation, you need to have a letter of confirmation from a registered indigenous community organisation.

Having worked alongside such an organisation in the past on such a scheme, I can tell you they're not handed out willy-nilly. They are VERY protective and won't provide these letters unless the family is already known in the local indigenous community.

Mistakes would happen occasionally, but it's a much more effective way of determining someone's indigenous status than grading the colour of their skin, or the presence of freckles.

How do people rate Levi's top age draft year compared to Will's? I remember Will was phenomenal in that year and undisputedly the number 1 player over the year. Think he got like a 54 disposal game at one time too. Is Levi a full time mid? Seems to be getting a few more goals than Will from memory?

I believe they are similar, play a very similar game style at Sandringham. Levi doesn’t look as polished as Will, but has played with more grunt and looks more natural in the forward half.

FYI Tom Gillett named on the bench in the Allies squad for their final U18 champs game. Will be interesting to see how he goes.

Looks like an early Sunday game at BHA.

Gallop in by the sounds of it too.

Put together some good games at the lower level from what I saw. Hope he takes his chance and has a good game

Gallop, Lloyd and Morris would be a good group of developing KPFs.

I have only seen scant vision of Ty Gallop but he appears to like the physical crash and bash side of the game.

 

[Crusha]

Ty Gallop ...strong marking and a couple of goals so far today ..... Allies v Vic Ctry (HT).

Do you like the look of him Crusha? I quite liked the couple of minute package I have seen.. although haven't seen him even rated by any Phantom Drafters.

My boy is back!

Liam Hude an x academy boy getting some pretty good reviews on the QAFL board(played a few VFL games for us earlier in the season) for his game over the weekend, still only 19.

Was he the one that kicked the match winner in one of our early games this year?

Think it might have been at the end of that 6th quarter we played against Gold Coast?

Quick give him a cricket scholarship in England

Fantastic finish coming up in the allies vic country game. Annabelle just kicked a goal to level it up at 76 apiece. With 10 mins to go.

And just as I type the allies have taken the lead!

Annable and Uwland both look like Top 10 selections in 2025 for Lions & Suns respectively.

Suns also have Murray and Addinsall in that year who look the goods and Lions will have Bridge and a later value pick maybe in Geesu

Southern states might have a meltdown.

Lions also have Jack Harrison while GWS has Ryder Corrigan and Sydney have Noah Chamberlain, Lachlan Carmichael and Max King.
