And Gippsland will take on Sandringham, which get the job done over Oakleigh by 17 points in its prelim. Jack Dalton had 24 disposals, StK NGA Kye Fincher continued his strong form and halfback Bennett Martin also very good. #AFLDraft

Sandringham Dragons prospect Rory Wright has been a revelation since going to halfback. Led Sandringham into its fourth consecutive grand final today with 30 disposals and 10 marks to continue a rich late-season vein of form. Has drawn comparisons to Luke Hodge. #AFLDraft

Grand final bound Eastern Ranges have eight players invited to the boys AFL combines. Five of those didn’t play Vic Metro. Two were playing high level basketball last year. Another two now look like going in the first round. The boys program has done so much right this year.

First ever senior flag in the history of the club, established in 1977. And of course it was back-to-back league-medalist Joel Hillis who took out best afield honours for the Dean Kent-coached Panthers. A brilliant story of a battling club coming good.

Adelaide choking on Friday saved the AFL the embarrassment of Izak Rankine playing a grand final. But the league will jump from a PR mishap to a PR catastrophe if Geelong win on Friday - especially if Bailey Smith, who should have been suspended, plays a starring role.

Tom Blamires takes out the Fothergill-Round-Mitchell Medal for most promising young talent in the VFL. One to track in November. Frankston coach Jackson Kornberg last month: “He's starting to realise he can match it with the better players in the VFL.” zerohanger.com/incredible-ris…

Brodie Atkins takes out the Morrish Medal. People around Gippsland Power joke you can basically write down Atkins’ stats pre-game - 20+ disposals, 5+ tackles, 5+ clearances. Unbelievable consistency as a two-way midfielder. #AFLDraft 🎥: Maddie Green

This is a landmark moment for the league and sport in Australia more broadly. Live watch alongs are the next frontier in Australian sport, having succeeded overseas but never really being explored domestically. Aussie sport valuing modern content is well overdue. #AFL

Key matchups, the storylines propelling success and words from both clubs… Sandringham will be gunning for its fourth straight flag. Eastern Ranges have unveiled a host of bolters and a first premiership since 2013 would top the season off. #AFLDraft zerohanger.com/afl-draft-key-…

Coates League Grand Final today at Ikon Park. Bounce of the ball at 1pm. Plenty of players for the future; plenty of storylines. zerohanger.com/afl-draft-key-…

Xavier Taylor best afield in Eastern Ranges premiership with 25 disposals and 15 marks. If there’s something that’s been question about Taylor it’s his kicking efficiency and that was the standout of his game today. A brilliant finish to his junior career. #AFLDraft

And here’s one to note - Sully Robey has played the last two games with a cracked collarbone - sustained against Calder in Wildcard Round. Kye Fincher has also toughed it out - has played the last two months of the year with cracked ribs. Two of the big recent #AFLDraft risers.

Six goals for Cody Curtin in Claremont’s 55-point WAFL Colts premiership. The haul lifts the AFL Academy member to 39 goals at Colts level for 2025. The 200cm spearhead can play either end and viewed as a mid-late pickup in this year’s draft. #AFLDraft

West Coast-tied prospect Charlie Banfield was unbelievable with 28 disposals and two goals. The big-bodied midfielder was an imposing presence all day and has a knack of finding the footy. Younger brother Harper (20 disposals, five tackles) also had his moments. #AFLDraft

Three huge gets for emerging Eastern League Premier club, Berwick: Luke, Matt and Tom Nelson. Luke played in the club’s 2015 premiership & Matt + Tom have vivid memories of the celebrations. Wickers 5-13 in 2025 but a percentage of 82 a better reflection of where they’re at.
