Melvic Pambai? 2025 class. Any good?

Pioneers. 25 class. Heard he’s good?

Hi Melvic.

 

[GoTigers2015]

Melvic Pambai? 2025 class. Any good?

Played 2 CTL games last season, so maybe a chance to get drafted.

Edit not picked in the Bendigo Pioneers 2025 squad



Russell Clark (2026), Zaydyn Lockwood (top ager) have been picked along with Cody Walker (likely to nominate Carlton)

Reckon there will be a change when GC start being a genuine contender.

until then the AFL will want to feed their new borns with extra players for cheap.

2025 The new rules will reduce the discount for matching bids from 20% to 10%.

Suns will need to give up more valuable picks to match bids.

Swans days of gaming the COLA has ended.
The brouhaha about the Suns 4 top picks coupla of years ago has already seen change.
A huge chunk of the millions the AFL spend on the Suns is the academy. U13 now I think. AFL Football is booming in the SEQ area. Suns come down to N NSW for clinics. Doing a good job with soccer mums who know rugby is for brutes.
Game day attendance at Metricon is steady. With no finals.

If Rioli is the missing ingredient, could be making the finals for the first time.
