Congrats to the kid but how did he qualify as rookie B considering he finished as an academy player three years ago

Just glad they didn't bend the rules to keep him. His below average career stats indicate he is not a senior list player and many former fringe players and academy prospects would wish they had even 10 percent of his opportunities. However Port is elevating McEntee so we can't throw stones

This ìs a big moment for the AFL , they just rejected Adelaide request for James Borlase to remain a rookie for an extra year so if they make an exemption for Oea that is blatant favouritism, he needs to be elevated to the senior list or delisted. The Suns could always get a talented kid like...

He should never have played before Evans or Fantasia in the first place

Mcentee poor skills under pressure killed any chance of us kicking some goals in the last quarter. His goal kicking record is abysmal at AFL and SaNFl level , it's an insult to all those gun state league players he is out there and they aren't

Here Here me out , the AFL own the Power which means they get a position at the selection table. Are they the ones selecting duds like McEntee who at best a bloody ordinary SANFL player. If he went to Elizabeth high instead of Mercedes College he never would have been on the list

What a farce this competition has become in the last couple of years, one of those kids was dropped as he couldn't cope with playing against men yet we have a 19 year old playing in a bottom side finishing top 10 in the Magarey and not getting a mention. The system is fully broken when you hear...

The woman's game was great three years ago when all women were at a certain standard now due to Gils greed there are girls out there that are so far below the required standard it's not funny. It's really quite sad, the pub I was at turned the channel over to the NRL as everyone was commenting...

They have completed destroyed the game by going to 18 teams, they would have being better by doing it by city like the big bash , also need to.play on rugby league grounds. Some of the players would struggle to get a kick in under 13 Boys as they have diluted the product so much

You seem to know your stuff, AFL is becoming a business with quotas , if there is a private school bias it will affect the northern states as the Private schools up there won't be offering Aussie Rule scholarships

Would be a joke if him , K Ryan and D'aloia aren't picked up, they would walk into the best 22 of most of the teams that missed finals

So if a kid came from a housing commission place (state school) and another from an upmarket housing estate (private school) which kid would they go for . Once upon a time the main consideration was how well you played football

To be fair , I have heard in latter draft picks those considered to be from good familys get preference, hopefully that is not discriminatory against for those players that came from single parent households

What's the character test entail?

Mate the AFL is now Coca Cola it's a business not a sport and run like a government department there are quota requirements everywhere

Agree but there is a big issue about the integrity of the competition if there was head office interference to avoid low crowds I have seen teams run themselves into the ground trying to secured a home final , makes you wonder if a team will ever work in West Sydney

Especially how the Giants now play at the MCG instead of Marvel the Saints Home ground. Would be interesting to hear the runners messages in that last quarter , would be furious if I had money on a 40 point plus Giants win. If there is any manipulation there is going to be a situation soon where...

Anyone else notice the Giants werent in a hurry to score those two goals in the last 10 minutes to secured a home final despite Curnow and Kemp put on ice for Carlton. Maybe the last Giants Stadium St Kilda crowd of 7500 came into calculations and they didn't want a repeat

What's the bet, the loser has to play the following Friday night against one of the AFL love childs with a 6 day break. On Roo and Ditts they just said the fixture wasn't even announced till they got a concussion update of a Melbourne player, that's borderline corrupt

What's the story with Carter Michael, looked ok in his game last year, constantly saying TBC

Watched the game and thought Cook looked good, Newchurch is the worry , did some flash things but seems to dislike physical contact, actually heard some of his teammates yelling at him earlier in the season for shirking a contest. Reckon O'Loughlin may be a better bet as your rookie b

Saw Ashton Moir on the weekend , looks a million dollars but only got 4 possies including a goal that was a bit of a cheapie but his team thrashed the opposition so he wasn't really required , what's happened to Will Patton didn't play at any level for past few weeks

Congrats on him and Rogers having a go at the seniors (will benefit them long term) there is strong suspicion especially in the southern states that draft prospects are being told not to play state league to avoid the possibilty of getting low stats which will harm their brand and draft tanking...

He has his faults but definitely think the club has stamped his papers after he asked for that trade last year

When we have our full team on the park it makes him look better as we are winning and he is given the ball when we have injuries and are losing he is exposed

Mcentees sanfl is bloody ordinary, can name three sanfl small forwards better than him Wilkinson, Gore and Hone

His former Sturt teammate and state small forward Josh Hone is twice the player, amazing how some get to play AFL and others dont

Wait till he gets up there and find out he has to play certain players to satisfy head office

I actually feel sorry for Oea , the AFL want him to succeed more than any other player in the comp and will promote him when he does anything like the goal today. Yes he showed speed but it was a brilliant handball from Holman that put him into space and the GWS defender did not leave his man in...

Oea is the Gary Ablett of PNG footy , however to survive in the AFL at that size you need to be solid like Prestia or super skilled like Caleb Daniel, you might sneak a goal here or there but your opponent may kill your in the contest. At the moment after 12 games he is averaging 8 possession...
