AFLW 2024 - Round 10 - Chat, game threads, injury lists, team lineups and more.
Playing predominantly as a key defender with some stints in the ruck, Mraz had a solid game in round 2 of the talent league showcasing his exciting combination of size and athleticism.
Stick your silly ideas , young players need qty around them or go NOWHERENot sure what the quality of the draft is like this year but I think the club needs to load up.
Was a great game Saturday and a break out game for a few players inc MRJ, Dow - also liked the look of sonsie & brown - great games by Vlas and Rioli - BUT given our current situation 1-3 and with long term injuries to key players I think its time to bite the bullet and start to think about the 24/25 drafts and look to 2026+ ie play the kids.
Goes without saying we need to phase out some of the older guys - Grimes, prestia, kmac and picket while keeping some leadership - vlas and nank and martin just for the aura.
I feel baker is a good chance to go and if he does go I think we double down by shopping around Short and - I hate to say it - Bolton and/or Taranto - who both have massive trade value. If we trade out 3 of these and with our current 2024/25 picks - along with our current group of solid youngsters - this could set us up for good success from 2026+. If we dont I feel we will middle out - or worse, become the next West Coast.
We need some real quality in the 18-22 bracket to go with our current solid young crop in this bracket to succeed. We need generational players (like Martin) along with top draft picks to get players like Cotch, Prestia, Lynch, JHF, Harley Reid, Sheezel, Bont, Rowell, King to build the next premiership side.
Was an abrupt decision by norf to cull him , not really big enough to be big cohuna ,,,tbo I’d love to think there’s better optionsWhat will we do at the MSD?
Lachlan Hosie is the best forward not in the AFL ... big game player ... kicked four snags in the state game on the weekend ... 6 last year for Glenelg in the SANFL grand final ... and multiple SANFL goal kicking winner.
Just having turned 27 he is the same age as Marlion was when we took him ... and was taken by North in the same MSD draft in 2019 ... kicked 20 in ten games in VFL and 2 on debut as a 22 year old but delisted after the first year of COVID.
A medium forward at 6FT 2 (190cm) and at the height of his powers he is capable of playing immediately ... at worst he takes us to a VFL premiership this year ... at best he could kick 30 a season in the AFL for a couple of years.
Bauer is a backman ... Kosi is a backman ... Miller is a backman ... Balta is a backman and Fawcett has faarked his back
You are not going to find a gun KPF in the MSD but we could add an actual natural forward who is ready to play now when the only true marking forward on our list is again out for the season
Season just started had 13p 7 marks 1G yesterday , ordinary last week , I’m sure we’d be looking at him , I’d take mutaz unless someone very good pops upMaybe we just take that bloke who lost out to Lefau
You ain't finding a Big Cheese in the MSD, that talent gets swallowed up in the National Draft.Was an abrupt decision by norf to cull him , not really big enough to be big cohuna ,,,tbo I’d love to think there’s better options

Sure ... but let's not go a country footballer like Bradtke again ... It ain't the 1960s ... Hosie has the runs on the board ... the most prolific goal scorer in elite level football outside the AFL in his absolute prime in ripping condition and with red hot form (leading goal scorer and the difference maker with 4 goals in the VFL SANFL State match)From what I’ve seen over the years, we usually go best available . I won’t be surprised if we don’t go needs in this year’s MSD ie KPF, if there isn’t one we rate.
New head recruiter calling the shots, so maybe he will have a rabbit up his sleeve.
Look’s good.Sure ... but let's not go a country footballer like Bradtke again ... It ain't the 1960s ... Hosie has the runs on the board ... the most prolific goal scorer in elite level football outside the VFL in his absolute prime in ripping condition and with red hot form (leading goal scorer with 4 goals in the VFL SANFL State match) over the last 2 years ... watch his highlights ... on the lead ... hangars ... pack marks ... and crumbing

#11 Lucas McInerney
Wing | 180cm | 28/02/2006
Stats: 22 disposals, 7 marks, 6 rebound 50s
One of the most talented natural wingers in this year’s draft, McInerney showcased his outside ability on plenty of occasions throughout the game. He is hard for the ball and runs with great width to counter attack forward. Again, in a tough game he played well above most on the ground and has a great connection with Johnson. Very vocal around the ground and helps the defence set up transitional play. There were a few kicks that hampered his efficiency, but it wasn’t an issue when he accumulates the ball like he does. Elite running, tough, fast by hand out of a stoppage and has the ability to create space wide to get the team forward.
given our lack of wingmen could be a handy selection, from https://central.rookieme.com/afl/2024/04/03/scouting-notes-2024-coates-talent-league-round-2/

"In the same game, recent AFL Academy inclusion Jack Whitlock snared three majors and clunked eight marks to be among Murray’s best as a ruck-forward."
depends what picks we have, I don't envision we'd use our first two picks on him, but maybe a thirdDon't think you start a rebuild with wingman though. Gun all round mids and talls surely.
I can't see Noah C being at the club next year.3 Noah's in the one team
Could we??

Jagga may only be small, but he's prolific when it comes to winning contested footy. His 10 clearances in this game were instrumental in helping Oakleigh secure a close win against Tasmania.
