Thank Goodness for the Father-Son Rule

[nolsey77]

Thank Goodness that the Father son rule is still in vogue in the AFL, we have been Lucky with the quality of palyers that have been selected by Geelong
David Clarke jr
Gary Ablett jr

Matty Scarlett

And hopefully Marc Woolnough

But I heard on the Coodabeens that another two Sons of former Geelong Players Terry Callan and Rod Blake are playing with the Falcons and plus the brother of current player might make the grade one day. Plus the future looks BRIGHT.:D

David Boltons son is playing for the Falcons.Does he qualify ?

[nolsey77]

David Bolton 1984-85 28 games misses out by 22 games wonder if they count under 19's and reserves games. Sydney have first Dibs on him.

But I still think the Future is looking "BRIGHT" JUB dont you?

[JUBJUB]

Geez Bolton only played 28 games for us.I thought he played a lot more.

Isn't Bright about 21 ?

[nolsey77]

Michael BRIGHT
Number 51
DOB:09/11/82 = 19 and 5 months
Height :181

Recruited From East Fremantle

nolsey77,

It's really exciting when the son of a former player comes through the ranks and plays for the same team as his dad. There was so much excitement around for Gary Ablett Jnr. when he made his debut and lets hope his brother (who is apparently a forward) makes it as well... how awesome would that be... 2 Abletts!! :):):)

The father-son rule has been kind to Geelong, but the obvious question I have is what happened with Ben Cousins??

Go Cats!! :)

You guys might get my brother one day.

He is 16, in the Falcons development squad and playing seniors for the Geelong Amateurs. He is a midfielder who is lightning quick, really strong and has good skills. That might sound biased, but that was the write up last year when he played.

But yeah, he is definately in with a chance one day. Too bad I will dis-own him if Geelong picks him up!! :D ;)

[nolsey77]

Your Brother isnt Doug Wade jnr is it cos we need a few forwards??:D

CowboyFromHell, are you saying that your younger bro is a chance to be drafted or he/you are the son of a former GFC player and he may be taken father.

CowboyFromHell you may be the saviour, get a game with modewarre with you know whos son and bang your off with cats.

Cos in the next few years

posibilities may be
Bright
N. Ablett
Callan
Blake
Turner

Am I close

Sorry mate, I didn't specify. My brother is not the son of a famous Geelong footballer, he is merely a great young player who is with the Falcons and will therefore be looked at closely by the Cats in the future.

So, I am sorry if I got you confused.

Plus, Levi Turner is the WORST footballer I have ever seen and I am hurt you would even mention him in the post! :( ;) I used to play footy with him at Ammos, and I was twice as good as him and I am not playing anymore.

Anyway, I just thought I would mention it to you guys.
