Re: Does Darcy Get Drafted?

If he plays at Footscray next season is there an option for Darcy to be a father-son next season or is it only in their first draft ?

I thought we could still father-son next year.
I'm pretty sure West Coast had Brennan as a mature Father-Son some years back.

Shame. I like to think that we would give a leg up to father-sons even if it is just on a rookie list. There is something about a kid following in Dad's footsteps and playing for the club his dad represented. He may not be as talented as other people, but he probably bleeds RWB - nostalgic view of the world

I like your view but we can't afford to think like that anymore. Every spot on the list is a premium. We can't even afford to have list cloggers anymore or the team is going backwards.

I love the romance of our past players kids playing for us, but we have our list at a stage sentiment can only count if the kids fill a gap, is an out and out gun or is on par with those that are available at our selection.
