    Was anyone else as happy as I was to hear that Chris and Rebecca Judd's second baby is a girl?
    I thought I was wrong once but I was mistaken.

      I was thinking that hopefully it's twin boys.
      I should leave it alone but you're not right

          Jake and his girlfriend? Then it's probably best to wait until she's had the baby at least.
          They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

                Cordy and Foster

                Will they be picked up and what will we give up? Is Foster destined for Rookie list?

                  Interesting questions BAD. Both have had fine years and Foster has surprised me by I think winning the TAC goal kicking...although I am not 100% but read something about it recently.

                    I saw Fossie and his son at one of the VFL matches during the year. He's a bloody big kid Fossie Jnr!

                        Foster is talked down a bit by some due to the fact that he's an overaged player in that comp... However, let's put that into perspective, he's 7 weeks over age... That's nothing.

                        In racing terms, we have as good an understanding of this colt's bloodlines as anyone in the world. His father was a late bloomer and his father was also a star. (Robbed of two more years by a disgraceful Paul Dear foot trip/kick which broke his leg... But that's another discussion..)

                        We're in a position where the son of a former champion of the club is the dominant goal kicker of the TAC Cup, is a 6ft 4 and a half inch power forward and is available to us under Father/Son. It's a no-brainer. At the very least, he'll develop into a handy KP backman who can handle opposition monsters. We have to take Foster. If the kid was aligned to Collingwood or something, we'd be looking on in envy. Grab him!

                        We also should take Cordy, btw. Hopefully one or the other with a late pick.

                          You are correct about Foster, kicked 6 in the final round to take out the goal kicking. He also kicked another 6 in the qualifying final on the weekend.

                              If he is anything like his old man he would be striking fear into the opposition.

                                In the last H&A game, Peter Wright kicked 4 alongside Fossie. You know, we are half a chance to get Wright with pick 5/6 and Fossie under F/S. Suddenly you've then got two quality young KPF's to watch develop through the Footscray VFL side and the WB side over the next couple of years as the senior midfielders continue to come of age.

                                If we don't get Wright, we could go for Durdin. Same net result. Then we have two more years of development and a genuinely well structured young list taking shape. The last thing I want to see is panic whereby we start getting over priced mid 20's speculative duds..
