NAB League Player Focus: Zane Duursma (Gippsland Power)
THE ‘Z’ in the Duursma family alphabet, Zane Duursma is the latest of the clan making his way through the elite talent pathway. Having cut his teeth across a range of roles in 2021, the Gippsland Power product projects enormous upside with his range of skills and athletic base. He broke into the Power’s Under […]
2022 SANFLW Player Focus: Keeley Kustermann
ONE of two top-age AFLW Academy members from South Australia, Keeley Kustermann is a well-balanced talent out of West Adelaide. After a solid AFL Women’s Under 18 Championships playing off half-back and rotating through the midfield, Kustermann was back to her onball role for Westies where she racked up a game-high 26 touches in the […]
WAFLW Player Focus: Jess Roper (West Perth)
PLAYING in defence in the West Australian Football League (WAFL) Women’s newest side has its challenges, but West Perth top-ager Jess Roper has been building quite the form of late.

SANFL Player Focus: Nick Sadler (Sturt)
PLAYING across all three SANFL grades this season, Sturt prospect Nick Sadler is one of South Australia’s most promising midfielders.

SANFL Player Focus: Isaac Keeler (North Adelaide)
ADELAIDE Crows fans will be cursing the revised Next Generation Academy (NGA) bidding rules, given the club’s ties to North Adelaide tall Isaac Keeler in this year’s AFL Draft.

AFL Sydney Player Focus: Ella Morris (Pennant Hills Demons)
THOUGH the result was not what the Pennant Hills Demons may have wanted – going down to Inner West Magpies by 11 goals in a Round 3 Anzac Day clash – there were a number of young shining lights who stepped up for the red and blue. One of them is Sydney Swans-aligned midfielder Ella […]
VFLW Player Focus: Renee Tierney (Essendon)
ESSENDON VFLW is one of the teams to beat this VFLW season, and that is largely thanks to the many inclusions the Bombers have this season. One of them is Renee Tierney, who after graduating from Geelong Falcons’ NAB League Girls program, crossed from Geelong’s VFLW side, joined Essendon this season and looks right at […]
WAFL Player Focus: Kane Bevan (West Perth)

NAB League Player Focus: Max Ramsden (Sandringham Dragons)
THE SANDRINGHAM Dragons have made a habit of producing a slew of key position talents, and Max Ramsden is the latest prospect off Sandy’s ‘big boy’ production line. The 19-year-old has put his hand up as a mid-season draft candidate, having come into the NAB League system this year after impressing throughout the 2021 APS […]
WAFLW Player Focus: Jaide Britton (Peel Thunder)
AFTER a consistent 2022 West Australian Football League (WAFL) Women’s season with reigning premiers Peel Thunder, winger Jaide Britton produced the best game of her League career with an eye-catching 25-disposal performance in the win over West Perth.
