Very.
Playing regular TAC as a 16yo is basically an indication that the powers that be believe (at this stage) you will be drafted very early indeed.
Of course thus is just the training squad, so Max has to make the full squad, then get a game, then establish himself in the side before we get to that point.
Couple of our NGA academy kids in the squad as well.
Some other names from the 18s that are tied to us via the Next Gen Academy
Xavier Saly
Kyle Baker
Cody Brand
Lachlan Johnson (Bris F/S)
What about TIPUAMANTUMIRRI … Tiwi?
There are also a bunch of other kids, who based on their surnames may be eligible for our NGA; A Tipuamantumirri among them.
Also shoutout to Cairan Wrigglesworth for having the greatest surname. Ever.
Which one?
There is Tipuamantumirri families in Victoria and Tiwi.
Hmm, your English expression has degraded since your move to the backwoods.

Des Tipuamantumirri
Isn’t that doctor evils cat?
Ah, been in vic a while I think
As long as his residential address is in our zone he should still qualify as an Indigenous academy player. If he is good enough.
He plays for Flemington though which is on the border of ours and Norfs zone.
Dodoro has arrived & paul connors / Dorazio
No Kurtis Barnard in the Cannons training squad i just noticed, which is disappointing. Not sure what happened, he was looking promising for a while there.
Apologies if already mentioned but can anyone explain why is ex fc player Mil “the cranium” Hanna’s son eligible to us via jha?
He has bits of Dean Wallis in his DNA.
(Don’t think he’s his son though)
For those too young, Deano cleaned him up beautifully in the '93 GF. On you tube if you’re interested.
