AFAIK this hasn't been mentioned (probably because it has absolutely no relevance to anything), but can it be that on our list there are 7 (at least!) players who have a brother on an AFL list?
Isn't that an extremely large number? Has there ever been a team even close?

Essendon with Maddens and Danihers?
No wonder Tony Santic is getting on board, if we're recruiting based on bloodlines.

I think it's three Clokes, one Shaw, a Lonie, A Rocca and a Wakelin, equals 7.
We have two Burgoynes, two Corneses, a DeLuca, a Lonie and a Wakelin,equals 7.
Does two pairs beat three of a kind?

You also have a Motlop, brother of Shannon at Melbourne....and three of a kind beats two pair by the way
And Lower if you include his rookie listed brother.

Sounds right. I guess Lower doesn't count (yet).

Well I get to stand in the corner with you because I didn't pick up on Motlop and Lower. (I reckon Lower should count because he is on an AFL list).
So that's nine! Holy Toledo thats around 20% of our list!

Michael and Anthony Stevens
Nick and Danny Stevens
Josh and Matthew Carr
