I got to see Salopek a few weeks ago, I wasn’t sure if he was FS as I didn’t know the old man was down in Victoria. Seems a really good leader, decent size and mobility aswell but very skinny so isn’t just dominating due to size.

Rodan is fairly solid but is fairly powerful as a forward/mid

Rodan a Reyner type?

Yep that would be a decent comparison, perhaps a tad more agile and doesn’t have the brute strength yet ( which will come once he develops)

Steven Salopek's from Narre Warren originally and played for the Dandenong Stingrays in 2002.

Gil looks a very promising type. Intercept KPDs are worth there weight in gold, so it wouldn’t surprise me to see him rated in the Top 20 in the 2025 draft.

I’ve got high hopes for Xavier Walsh who is a competitive beast, so if both can come on, that’s a very enviable key defensive pairing for the years ahead.

Makes sense, Louis plays for Beaconsfield

Ky Burgoyne dropped after 2 games, was allowed to play 4.

Dropped or managed??

"Ky Burgoyne has also been omitted after a two-game stint with permission from his parent club West Adelaide and the SANFL."

Not surprising, he's a rookie pick at best
