Yeah but atleast it might make them realise how unfair it is to the rest of the comp and change it finally

and Port have not benefitted from any go home factor recently at all.

Also 11 of the best 22 U16 AFL team are Academy members, including 5 Gold Coast Suns. Those are impressive numbers.

Yeah we got one of the future best for sure and I’m stoked but we haven’t benefited much before they bar our inaugural year with Wanganeen. Nothing compared to Vic clubs

That’s mostly because of having different divisions.

Imagine if it was Brisbanes Academy producing 3 top 10 picks this year while they sit top 3 and potentially win a premiership!

Then they’d only be allowed to match a bid on one of them inside the first round (or maybe top 20 - not sure of the precise rule).

Dumbest take in this thread so far.

No, one.

A club is limited to matching two top 20 picks if they finish 5-8, and one if they finish top 4.

Plus Brisbane and Sydney have had huge names go to their clubs through FA
First Round F/S’s
And Academy players that are top end
When have they had go home factors lately?

Sort of sounds like Cats 2022. Bring in 3 former top 17 picks and a top 7 draft pick....and not lose a depth player..
Good management

It’s being fortunate due to playing under different rules, ALL clubs had the opportunity Geelong took advantage of.

Not the northern clubs with all the first rounders returning Home.. No t all clubs have the chance to prioritise home grown talent through the draft or trade. If your list can be made up of 50 percent home grown...chances are you lessen the odds of losing players .

Show me one club from the Northern states who have had 2 players in their prime ' returning home' in a one or two year period..let alone at all

They can’t return home because none of them get to leave.

Edit Beams went home, Neale chose Brisbane, Daniher chose Brisbane, Dunkley chose Brisbane, Lyon, Gunston, McKenna

Probably more there than most Vic clubs in terms of recruiting high quality players.

Yeah so do you agree Brisbane and Sydney should not be aloud to have access to top academy prospects? Like the rest of the AFL?
I get GC and GWS having access while they are building a club still but there should be a time where they don’t get access aswell

Here's another example. 11 of Melbourne's list are non Victorian. So that's 25 percent .Of which if the stats are right , they should worry about losing 1.
So 75 percent never left or returned.

Players that have chosen Melbourne.
May , Lever , Tomlinson, Dunstan , Shache, Melksham Langdon, Hunter.
Do you want an example of list make-ups of Northern states and what players have left and returned. ? It makes for interesting reading.

No not until draftable players from northern states are even close to the rest of the country. Or some retention solution and cost of living solution.

 

[Vindicater]

Just make it that they can only match the first one.
