Gold Coast Suns Academy: Zebedee Farmer

Jeff Farmer's son? Didn't know the Farmer family was living on the Gold Coast these days. So he would be F/S eligible for Melbourne, Freo and academy eligible for the Suns?

The Wiz lives in or around Carrum nowadays.

Good games.

Eli Kravic was quite good with 3 goals, could have been 4. How is his kid only 15. He's big and strong. Moves well, pressure is good. Moves up the ground, and in the ruck. Also plays at FF. Good contested mark on him.
Brancatisano good runner, as we know he is an elite athlete. Kicked a good goal from 50.
Jiang looks like a good small mid, wearing the helmet too.
DeValle was playing on the wing I think, looked okay for a 14 year old.

Nice summary Jen.

On a side note - Luke is a Jan baby - he's actually almost 16...one of the oldest in this year group.

Luke moves well from what I see. You're right, he's definitely 15 not 14 and born in January. It's Jiang that's 14 (born in 2010) But looks to be a winger, but also played at centre bounce.
Jiang and Cooper also played midfield as well. I plan on putting together some footage of them sometime today. But I've gathered this for Eli, who really stands out with his size.



How's this kid 15?
Once he gets to CTL next year, he'll be a key forward for sure.

In regards to Cooper. That kid has pace, you wouldn't want to give him a yard of space out there. Can run 100m in 11 seconds going by his athletic awards.


Not connected to the pies, but I liked the look of Lual. Moves really well off half back with his athleticism.

Brancatisano, Jiang, De Valle

Does anyone know if every kid who plays in this game belongs to an AFL clubs NGA?

In the Boomerangs v The World game?
Not everyone, there are a few split between the sides. But would be plenty not linked I think.
Pies did have 5 NGA in the World Team


But the Kickstart v All Nations game was definitely NGA prospects

 

[Kedron lions]

lucky for kids in this draft the pool goes out by 50 more picks usually

 

[GC2015]

So who are the standouts to look out for in this draft class? I found the All-Australian team from this year, but I have no idea which ones are considered the best prospects.
