Then hopefully only players that go are ones who arent good enough at that club , but at least they had there chance.
If you were good enough and had choice im sure you would have liked to have played for doggies first.
I know when i was a kid i would have been devastated not to play for dogs.
I was zoned to Geelong and did a pre-season there in 83-84. If they had have picked me up I would be now posting on a Geelong forum somewhere (assuming I had sobered up from last September).

For the chance to have played VFL footy I would have gone anywhere and pledged my allegence to anyone.


They actually changed their theme song while I was there.

"Come on the Cats
Come on the Cats
Let's show the world the way to play the game
For we are Geelong
We'll show them we belong
The greatest team to ever play the game
