Did I hear that we are going to be given the Northern Territory as our Academy zone, or is that just something I dreamt up?
It was something in the media a few weeks ago.

Whether it is true or not is another thing entirely.

Also it appeared that it was the NT excluding Darwin.

Giving us the NT as an NGA is a nonsense.

We had all of Tassie which is an hour flight and we were unable to manage it properly. What do we really think the outcome is going to be? NT is like 25 times the size of Tassie and further away with a population half the size. Of which is you exclude Darwin you exclude 50% of that population. So where does that lands us 25% the population of tassie to draw on but over vast distances that would be hard and expensive to cover.

If offered it, the pragmatic answer is to say no. If the NGA is something we need to fund we would be much much better off funnelling any funds we would have spent on the NT into the small slice of Melbourne we have. THe ROI would be significantly more.

Caroline Wilson has declared the AFL teams who currently have academy zones across the Northern Territory, will have a "bomb" dropped on them, after it was revealed that North Melbourne are ready to take over.

9News Melbourne chief football reporter Tom Morris revealed that North Melbourne is preparing to raid the Northern Territory to receive first pick on all their pathway players coming through the ranks.

Stranger still when you consider the OP of the future father sons thread has an incredibly detailed list of all potential Father Son selections not just the cherry picked ones posted here.

Can't find any info on any NGA prospects and the whole purpose of me posting this is to get more info on future prospects so if you do let me know so I can add them?
 
forget the prospects, if you could find out if we actually have a zone that would be great.
City of Melbourne (Kensington, Flemington, North Melbourne, Parkville, Carlton, West Melbourne, Docklands).

Whole of Tasmania.

When Tasmania come in you will lose Tasmania and talk of getting all of NT.

And we had to fight tooth and nail to get Sanders listed as part of our NGA even thou by self admission we’d been fairly influential in his pathway.

Mambourin, Eynesbury, Cocoroc, i have only lived in Melbourne all my life, where in the hell are they ?
They're in the west/southwest. Eynesbury is the only one that currently has a population, they're all pretty much planned suburbs in anticipation of booming population. Cocoroc in particular reported 0 residents at the 2021 census, so hardly a footy factory.

Actually Cocoroc is a town that disappeared rather than a planned suburb. It is located on the sewerage farm and used to be a thriving town housing workers on the farm and their families. In the first half of the 20th century it had its own schools, shops and footy teams but the town disappeared as the farm became less labour intensive. We won't get any footballers from there in my life time but the bird life is fantastic
