Link to bright shiny new map

Was just mucking around a bit today and came up with this. Mods, I think this is probably the best place for it. Feel free to move if you think it belong elsewhere, or is just plain shit.

Love it. But then I have a real map fetish.

Love it TFB!

Merrett seems to be missing... didn't fully evaluate every player but noticed he wasn't there.

Had a fight with the rusty fist, but he's in there now. Quality proof-reading Jorgo!

Brilliant with the Lions share coming from Victoria.

Very interesting...I noticed Jordan Lisle had no mention of where he is from so......Scoresby/Rowville

I may have screwed up there, but its one of our newbies.....SOMEONE comes from that area..

...will have to put my Sherlock Holmes hat on and do some investigating

Could be a past player MM.

I'd like to embed the map into the OP, but I don't think it's doable in vbulletin.

Reckon the club might like it Belgo. An interesting off-season triva thing.

If you had more time, you could format the pop-up with HTML. But I'm not huge on coding, even the lightweight stuff

It's interesting that the listed junior club through the AFL isn't necessarily correct. Banfield's junior club is listed as Swan Districts, but after a little digging I found it was Upper Swan. Not that it matter in the grand scheme of things.

Great stuff, very interesting.

If you can show he played footy there, I'd be happy to move his marker there!

Updated for 2011 national draftees.

 

[tancas]

Haha I like this which leads me to believe that we might be a little footy obsessed.

Updated to reflect Rookie Draft

Good to see some representation north of Maroochydore!

TFB, I'm not sure how convenient this is, but what are your thoughts on posting updates in a new post rather than updating the opening post? That way we can follow the trend over time.

Elloit Yeo's junior club changed from Booroogoon to Attadale (as per Brisbane Lions Official Website).
