Ineligible for F/S but fathers played AFL.

[Bulldog Joe]

ex-Bulldogs
Along with Sam and Ben Ried. We thought we'd get both until the AFL changed the rules from 50 to 100 games (his dad Bruce played 86 games for the Bulldogs)
The Talia Brothers are grandsons of 1954 Premiership player Harvey Stevens

There have been quite a few sons of Bulldog Players not eligible for Father /Son

Mentions have been made of Georgiades/De Koning brothers/Alex Rance but Dan Hannebery also fits with his Dad having played 32 games.

Plenty of Bulldog Heritage still going around with
Liberatore, West and Darcy on our list and probably add another this year.
Also have Darcy McPherson at the Suns as well as Cordy and Phillipou at St Kilda, Georgiades at Port and the De Koning boys

Xavier O'Halloran at GWS is also the grandson of Footscray Premiership Player (1954) Ron McCarthy
The Talia brothers were grandsons of Footscray Premiership Player Harvey Stevens.

We must have something in our program

Warren T‘s father played 19 games for Collingwood in the early 70s. Now he is in his early 70s.

He was 19cm shorter than his son. Woz would have been taller than his father at about the time he turned 12.

I think Tredrea was actually pretty small until he was 16/17. He played as a wing in the juniors which is why his skills were so good up the field.

Interesting.

IIRC this is similar to what happened with 2022 #1 ND selection Aaron Cadman.
