It just seems like the Bulldogs continually get free hits when it comes to father son or academy selections, where a club like Carlton get nothing.. This cant just be luck and must be doing something different..
On the Dogs list they have Zaine Cordy
, Lachy Hunter, Tom Libreatore, Mitch Wallis, Rylee West as father son selections and are about to add Sam Darcy, the #3 rated player in the draft.. on top of this they got Jamara Ugle Hagen as an academy selection.. Basically 1/3 of their list is built from 'free hit' players.
The only other club I can think of that comes close is Collingwood with Moore, Brown x2, Kelly, & Daicos x 2. The pies have always produced strong offspring with the Clokes & Shaws making up key parts of there succesful teams in 2010. Geelong had GAJ, Nathan Ablett, Scarlett and Tom Hawkins
.. 14 All Australians amongst these.
Compared to Carton who have Jack Silvagni
and that is it, and the only others we have had in the past are Ben Silvagni who didnt play a game, Pat Kerr
who played 2 and then nothing until you go back to Jarrad Waite
& Lance Whitnal
I am not saying I want the rule to go, but it just seems strange the significant advantage it does give some clubs whilst others completely miss out.
On the Dogs list they have Zaine Cordy
