... don't think it's been changed
why would we not tell him to refuse to play for the SANFL side
Not sure we'd be game to go there

Seems beneficial to all involved for him to play for our SANFL side next year

Maybe not for WWT.Thanks.

Extra 5k for a player that was never playing more than a year with them

I was thinking more if Tyler looks to possibly make a difference to WWT's 2024 campaign, even if only for 1 season, which is also good for us if it turns out that way.Extra 5k for a player that was never playing more than a year with them

Assuming that being at SANFL level all year is beneficial to him.Thanks.

It might actually be better for him to play for the eagles and have access to their U18, reserves and league teams for his development.
As mentioned above I have little knowledge on this stuff and appears to be fairly uncharted territory for us and Port? So if he was to be eligible for our SANFL side he then loses ability to play at any other level?
It would certainly be an interesting debate on what is more beneficial- basically being AFL listed a year early with potential to have access to game plans, reviews, fitness & nutrition staff etc vs is he ready to play a whole year at that level
Understand their are complexities with people supporting SANFL clubs as well as the crows but I'm solely looking at it from crows point of view as I don't follow ant SANFL team other than ours.
Just posing a question to get some info and discussion

Welsh will be playing U18's Nationals for SA next year if fit regardless of anything else.
It should solely be the lads choice where he plays next year, personally I would hope he stays with the Eagles for his development whilst training with our boys from time to time.

That's it. It's Tyler's and his family's decision.
There will be no WWT senior selection purely designed to scupper any '24 AFC ambitions Welsh may have.
WWT and Welsh would have already agreed on what's the plan, or would be having these discussions very soon.
If he plays league this year it's because he intends on playing for WWT next year, not because WWT are doing anything untoward.
People forget Peter Daicos kept Nick away from scrutiny and let him his enjoy football until his draft year
How did he do that?
He left him out of TAC until his draft year .. just let him play school footy
Don't know the veracity of that. A floggingwood supporting mate told me
Having watched him this year I'm not sure playing league is the right decision for 2023.

The Eagles are never scared to give young players a go at senior level. Weckert from the SA U18 already given some exposure.
Sure but he struggled in reserves a fortnight ago. Don't think he's quite ready.

I suspect at the end of the season he will get a go. When Godden was coach at the Eagles, he brought Luko in for the finals. Luko was an under ager at the time. Sheedy is a similar coach.
There is the scenario where he doesn't play league this year and still stays at WWT next year.
If he played for us in '24 he would effectively be a top up player. He won't be a full-time AFL listed player. People can forget this Burgess talk.
I have no idea what our top up players schedules look like, do they train with the club?
I don't know but surely they train with the club at least once a week.
Absolutely he may opt to play for WWT.
Can they play u18 for sanfl club and for the crows?

You have to remember he is a WWT player not an AFC player. Last season I think Burgoyne played 3 matches for the Magpies as an orientation process. I think the power had to pay a fare for this as well.
Does sound like a pretty decent result for all concerned, so probably unlikely.
Brad Crouch comes to mind. Memory is failing me, pretty sure we got access to him early.
He trained at the club for that year, then farmed out to an SANFL club to play some matches. If we had a reserves team he would have played for them.
The distinction between the two is Crouch was allowed to be drafted early. Welsh will not be a contracted AFC player next year.
Has Welsh confirmed he will come to us via Father Son? The players get a say don't they?
Someone mentioned his tiktok account is tylerwelsh119 so would seem he is a fan at least
