Father son all time team

[Lingsface]

Just an interesting topic for the off season a bit of fun.
To qualify your father had to of played AFL or a wafl sanfl vfl in the pre afl era.

D Fletcher M Scarlett St Silvagni
A Rance C Cornes A Macintosh
B Cousins J Kennedy M Richardson
L Whitnall J Brown T Mitchell
J Daniher T Hawkins H Bunton jnr

L Darcy G Ablett J Watson

T Liberatore N Daicos H Shaw J Bowden

I’m sure I’m missing a lot but what an impressive team! Would have to be a chance to beat the team of non father sons.

 

[Dogflogger]

i wonder if these cheap players had any effect on getting their teams grand final wins.

Very impressive team. Maybe I would find a spot for Travis Cloke, ahead of Whitnall.

 

[M Malice]

I am gobsmacked.... where is Will Ashcroft?

 

[kane249]

Matthew Lloyd to replace Joe Daniher
Marc Murphy a bit stiff as well

Cheap like top draft picks?

Seriously how does anyone whinge about the system when the primary part of it is based around rewarding shitness

Is the only criteria that their old man played footy? Or that they were taken under the F/S rule?

I ask because there are blokes like Rance and Bunton who weren't F/S for either the Eagles or the Dogs where his dad played.

Also you've named 5 full backs in your back 6....... Not sure that's going to make for a balanced side.

I'd do mine as follows if we're talking about blokes actually taken F/S:

FB: J Bowden - M Scarlett - S Silvani
HB: H Shaw - D Fletcher - N Daicos (calling it early because the back flankers aren't great)
C: B Cousins - T Mitchell - J Kennedy
HF: M Richardson - T Cloke - J Waite
FF: N Davis - J Brown - T Hawkins
Fol: L Darcy - G Ablett - J Watson
Bench: McKintosh, Ebert, Daniher, Viney

Dunno, I used to lie awake at night wondering the same thing but about priority draft picks and high draft picks.

It really is amazing that in a sport where grass roots development is almost NEVER rewarded - and ironically the 4 clubs who do it the most are causing everyone else to lose their mind - that fans can be so vocal about one strand of player drafting that comes down to complete fortune…… and ignore the fact that the entire basis of player drafting that the whole comp is based around, comes down to a combination of luck, and simply. Being. F***en. s**t.

Couldn't fit Marc Murphy but Ebert makes it?

 

[Sky]

Where is Ron Barassi Jr? Without him that rule never existed

Sorry. Happened more than 20 years ago. Irrelevant AFABFIC.

Just that their fathers played top level football at the time they could.

I only used the players listed in the Wiki article for players 'drafted to the AFL under the father son rule' which didn't apply to Murphy did it.


I would definitely fit him in.
Same with SOS.

Ron Barassi Jr - arguably the most important person in the history of AFL. Even without the fact that the rule was literally written for him, he would be the first picked, best player and would captain-coach that side.

And Watson has no business being in there. Without the good stuff he was barely AFL standard.

 

[Lingsface]

I think Pavlich would qualify as well.

 

[blueboy25]

Plus Bryce Gibbs

the good news is that you can do a straight swap of Watson for Hird as per the OPs rules.

I was so surprised when I found out this thread was made by a cats supporter Catsfooty.com is getting boring.
