First-round draft prospect Clancy Snell is confident he can take on the game's top key forwards after a dominant under-18 season.
The Gippsland product isn't the first athlete in his family, related to Aussie Olympic basketballer, Belinda Snell. @owenleonard_#9News
The Pies are on track to significantly jumpstart its struggling AFLW program with two huge contract extensions, @RileyBev reports.

Final draft order now through - a maximum of 80 picks available across next Thursday and Friday night.
Expected to be around 65 live picks used.

"Someone who changed the way key forwards play."
An #AFLDraft bolter and combine record-breaker who's attracting lots of first-round interest.
@bjwaterworth reports on the Magpies' interest in Sam Gayfer, who's as competitive as they come 👇

@CrispyyyPies I heard a rumour today that a play for port's pick 7 is in the works. If true, it would happen to happen early on draft night due to the bid
Decent draft tidbit from @JontyRalphsmith: Vic Metro defender Kai Parker is eligible for a Cat B spot through his Indigenous heritage.
Pies among clubs queuing up for Parker. A bargain if overlooked at the National Draft, which is still a big if.

Preseason training starts Nov 23rd for 1-4 years, but because the turf reconstruction and its not quite ready yet, the pies will be training off site, closed to the public. At least for the first week.
They wont be able to get back on olympic park until January it seems like.
VFL: good get for Frankston, with ex-Magpie Matt Scharenberg joining the club as a development coach. The 31-year-old has moved into the area and taken up a role with the Dolphins, who sounded him out as a potential recruit three years ago.
@COLLLFC1_ he's bottom of the pack for me too. Would prefer we try to move up a bit. Otherwise look to Malady
I'm in the view, x factor forwards are harder to find than defenders.
I think GC is rumoured to take Stead, if not I could see them going for Snell.
Reason being is the interstate factor. Their last vic metro draftees? Rowell and Anderson. Clubs like the suns have to draft specifically when it comes to the go home factor, which is why they target those from the country
But bradley would be a good fit given they need to prepare for who takes over for collins.
Code Sports phantom draft:
Rivals believe Saints will take Gayfer. And pies will turn their attention to Bradley.
Also Gus Kennedy a chance for our 2nd pick
