As we worked our way through the Top 25 player countdown on the night, the influential role the TAC Cup competition has had on producing elite AFL footballers became evident. A host of TAC Cup players in attendance – including North Rebels Morrish Medallist Hugh McCluggage – will hope to emulate the careers of these players when they join the ranks of the AFL later this year at the various draft s.

2nd SEMI FINAL Williamstown vs Sandringham Saturday September 10, 11.40am, North Port Oval Winner to play: Casey Scorpions The Seagulls were in fine defensive form when they last met Sandringham in Round 17, keeping the Zebras to a score of 1.14 to three-quarter time before prevailing by 24 points. Williamstown midfielders Willie Wheeler and Michael Gibbons were typically prolific that day, but they felt the heat of Collingwood’s tackling pressure in their Qualifying Final last week. Similarly, the hallmark of Sandringham’s Elimination Final victory was an ability to force Port Melbourne into crucial errors, with Myke Cook (24 disposals, 10 tackles) and Kade Answerth (17, 11) a big presence in the clinches. The Seagulls will want ruckman Nick Meese to win his battle with Billy Longer and provide silver service to those at his feet, then have them move the ball quickly to a versatile forward line boasting goalkickers Ayce Cordy, Sam Dunell and Leigh Masters. But reliable Zebras defenders Tom Simpkin, and Elliot Le Grice are just as capable of winning the ball in the air and dishing off to speedy Essendon’s Aaron Heppell runners such as Eli Templeton and Jack Sinclair – and if that occurs, the reigning premiers will have their 1st SEMI FINAL defensive credentials truly tested. Footscray vs Essendon Sunday September 11, 2.40pm, North Port Oval Winner to play: Collingwood Footscray’s VFL-listed talent was exposed against Casey’s hardened bodies in their Qualifying Final, with just eight AFL-listed Bulldogs taking the field. Senior leaders Jordan Russell and Anthony Barry did what they could, but the younger generation were found out late in the game. Essendon, meanwhile, had a mix of AFL and VFL Bombers contribute to their thrilling victory over Geelong. James Polkinghorne (22 disposals, four goals) and (53 hitouts) were inspirational, while the emergence of Aaron Heppell (28 disposals, 13 clearances) and Nash Holmes (three goals) continued apace. Footscray ruckman Will Minson faces the task of curbing Jamar’s influence, while a Mitch Honeychurch-led midfield must stand up as it did in a 19-point win against Essendon in Round 7. Another concern will be who the Bulldogs target up forward – if their under-sized attack featuring , Nick Jamieson and Jordan Staley can’t win the aerial battle, Bombers defenders such as James Ferry and Josh Freezer will sweep the ball back out. Footscray faces a challenge to reverse Essendon’s win in last year’s Semi Final, but it’s now common knowledge the Bulldogs will never lie down.

BRIANNA DAVEY (St Kilda): Davey moved into the midfield this season, showing an ability to brush aside tackles and use her booming boot to push her side forward. MOANA HOPE (St Kilda): Will a 104-goal season for the game’s best forward be enough to attract the eye of the umpires in 2016?

1st SEMI FINAL Dandenong Stingrays vs Sandringham Dragons Sunday September 11, 11.30am, IKON Park Winner to play: Geelong Falcons Minor premier Dandenong will have to bounce back from a humbling Qualifying Final loss to Murray against a team flush with in-form top-end talent. The Bushrangers beat the Stingrays up at contests and denied them the ball, with only Tom Glen (24 disposals, nine clearances) and Myles Poholke (23 disposals) off ering much resistance in the middle. Sandringham’s first-choice on-ball division will be a force to contend with too, comprising national representatives Corey Lyons (31 disposals last week), Andrew McGrath (29, seven clearances), Tim Taranto (27, eight) and (16 tackles, 10 clearances). The contest could come down to how well Dandenong tall defenders Oscar Clavarino and Mason De Wit can control Dragons twin towers Hayden McLean and Isaac Morrisby and provide chances for the likes of Bailey Morrish and Reece Piper to run the ball back out of Sandringham’s forward line. If the Stingrays can give last week’s six-goal hero Josh Battle or dynamic forward Dan Toby Wooller of the Allsop – a star when his team defeated the Dragons Oakleigh Chargers by eight points in Round 14 – enough chances to hit the scoreboard, anything is possible. 2nd SEMI FINAL North Ballarat Rebels vs Oakleigh Chargers Sunday September 11, 2.15pm, IKON Park Winner to play: Murray Bushrangers Alarm bells will be ringing for North Ballarat ahead of a date with the TAC Cup’s September specialists, despite recording a 39-point win against the Chargers in Round 6. Oakleigh won last year’s premiership from sixth position and you wouldn’t tip against them being able to do it again based on last week’s demolition of Calder. The Rebels, meanwhile, lost captain Jarrod Berry (kidney damage) and Jacob Wheelahan (broken wrist) to serious injuries in their Qualifying Final loss to Geelong, but the positive is key playmakers Willem Drew (24 disposals, 12 clearances last week) and Morrish Medallist Hugh McCluggage (20 disposals, two goals) are in form. They’ll need to be to counter the Chargers, who had Lachlan Walker (25 disposals, eight inside-50s last week) and Jack Higgins (23 disposals, three goals) lead a deep division of midfield contributors against the Cannons.
