At least PRE will get Evo Jnr under the poster-son rule.

hehe. Hoping to get him into the Oakleigh Chargers u/15s next year. A couple of his older mates got picked up this year.

Is Daicos' son bigger then everyone or just better? When a kid is the same size but miles better, fair chance he will get a shot at the big time.

nah not bigger, he is average size for a 13 year old but can already kick 45m both feet. That puts ahead of shank and nahas already.

Heads up that the SANFL website has a live stream of SA vs NT tomorrow at 1pm for anyone interested.

A few players to keep an eye on:

NT:

11. Louis Egger - Gibson Turner's mate whose been playing for Coburg.

4. Sam Autio - Utility/Forward with similar build to Troy Taylor.

14. Anthony Tipungwuti - Creative little small forward. Overager who missed draft last year.

6. Dom Barry - Lightning quick with elite skills.


SA:

2. Ben Kennedy - highly skilled small midfielder/forward.

40. Brodie Grundy - doubt we'd take a ruckman but considering NT's tallest player is about 190cm it will be interesting to see what kind of HO numbers he gets. :hihi

25. Troy Menzel - Daniel's brother. Kicked 9 last week as a medium forward.

7. Sam Mayes - another medium forward who can play as a midfielder.

22. Jimmy Toupmas - Gun midfielder.

Looks like SA may have a hand on the title this year.

Are they the best outfit this year phantom

I'll tell you in July.

My gut-feel is that we haven't seen the best Vic Metro & Country teams yet.

Do these games against Div 2 sides even count?

SA seemed to be the only Div 1 side that put in a full team.

Menzel carving up NT. 3 goals at 1/4 time. Really hope we are looking at Dom Barry from NT. quick, skillful left-footer. SA are looking like another 100 point win on the cards here.

Indeed, a very likely type.

Has 4 now. Good overhead mark. Wouldnt mind seeing him in the middle at some stage though.

Willy Rioli makes kicking goals look like childs play, silky type.

Looks good doesn't he. Tipungwuti could be special if he got fit.

Rioli is next draft is he not?

Tipungwuti has the tools & I agree about the fitness, just needs to keep building a tank so he can keep moving.
I think Rioli is next draft.

Good come back by the thunder & game worth watching.

He's definitely something we lack. Amazing how close it was in the end. Thought it was going to be a drubbing. Great effort thunder.

As for spook: I believe they will put it up as a replay too on sanf site. l
