What in the actual f*** !?! So Darryl 'Daisy' Borlase's son is tied to the crows and is a potential top 10 pick next year. How the hell is this even able to happen ?!?
But that doesnt stop him from still being a father/son! Surely as in the case of players who have played 100 games for two different clubs, the first club's father/son rights are not discarded in the process, giving the second club sole rights? Instead, the the son is allowed to choose which club he wishes to go with.1. The Victorian teams bitch to the AFL about the northern teams having academies.
2. The AFL gives all the clubs "Next Generation Academies" which are designed to promote football for players from backgrounds which aren't traditionally well represented at AFL level.
3. Naturally, this is used by the clubs primarily to recruit players who have grown up living and breathing footy who just happen to qualify for whatever reason.
4. 4x Port Adelaide premiership player and 246 gamer Daisy Borlase works in the agriculture industry after his career and spends a short time living in the Egypt, where his son James is born.
5. James lives in a zone which is tied to the Crows and qualifies because he was born in Egypt, despite moving over as a young child and living and breathing footy his entire life.
Not totally across it, so someone can correct it, but I reckon Daisy needed to play like 300 games to qualify his son, or some BS like that.But that doesnt stop him from still being a father/son!

We should be picketing AFL house until they include Port in this, and allow the lad to nominate one of the two clubs
Why would Koch and Keith fight for Port to have Father-Son selections simply be 100 games for Port (whether Magpies, Power or a combination), with no rights to anyone else from other SANFL clubs, as symbolic of our 150th meant to be a celebration of our history? I mean we can have a bastardised logo with Teal instead!Not totally across it, so someone can correct it, but I reckon Daisy needed to play like 300 games to qualify his son, or some BS like that.
200 games between certain dates (?why) so that not even Russell Ebert's son qualified under the rule. The unfairest rule implemented since the holocaust.Not totally across it, so someone can correct it, but I reckon Daisy needed to play like 300 games to qualify his son, or some BS like that.
Would be nice, but it's kind of too late now. Borlase and co are the tail end of Magpies that would become eligible.As part of our 150 year stuff, we should be lobbying the AFL to bring Port into line with the rest of the VFL clubs and have only ex Magpie/ Power as F/S and to bring the games back down to 100.
How incompetent and negligent did the previous club custodians have to be to not run a couple sums just to QC and, oh I dunno, make sure thatcat least the greatest and most decorated player in our club's history was eligible?200 games between certain dates (?why) so that not even Russell Ebert's son qualified under the rule.

Trent Burgoyne, son of Port Adelaide premiership star Peter Burgoyne, looms as mystery prospect ahead of AFL draft
He was in the middle of Port Adelaideās premiership celebrations on the MCG after his dad starred on grand final day.
But Trent Burgoyne ā the son of Power flag winner Peter Burgoyne and nephew of Hawthorn champion Shaun Burgoyne ā is looming as a mystery prospect ahead of next monthās AFL national draft.
The Power have access to Trent, 18, as a father/son selection and they are understood to be very keen on the smooth-moving wingman/half-forward from Woodville-West Torrens.
A quandary for other clubs who weigh up a potential bid for him is they do not have a lot to judge him on this year. In fact, Trent played just one half of football this past season due to issues with his left hamstring. He has torn that hamstring four times in about 12 months, including twice in 2019, missing the Eaglesā under-18 premiership this year and last.
There has been some scepticism from rival recruiters about whether Port might have asked Trent, who is a member of its father/son academy, to sit on the sidelines during the back half of 2019, so he could fly under the radar.
Trent was on show for scouts on Saturday when he was one of 24 players testing at the SA draft combine at Prince Alfred College.

What a load of ******* bullshit. I canāt believe they printed that s**t.
trent was viewed as a sub 177cm small forward rookie pick years back when he was injured and not getting on the park.
Like port would ask a guy viewed as a rookie pick to sit out the better part of two years
the reporter that suggested this ought to be humiliated, sacked and ostracised such is the poor judgment and sheer stupidity of such a suggestion.
Iāll wager that no genuine recruiter has ever suggested such and if I met this so called reporter would love to challenge him on this.
Itās behind a paywall so I canāt see what numbskull put his name to that crap.
What a w***er
He and Ted Walker share some DNA with Tutankhamen or something like that.What in the actual f*** !?! So Darryl 'Daisy' Borlase's son is tied to the crows and is a potential top 10 pick next year. How the hell is this even able to happen ?!?
We just need to nominate Trent as a potential father-son pick and we'll likely auto draft him as a rookie when the national draft concludes. Worst case scenario we match a late bid on him and he goes to our senior list for two years on a small salary.LOL what a load of bullshit, he's not that good to hide , campaigners
I don't know if that's possible. If NGA is anything like the northern academies then James would only have the choice if he was eligible as a father-son selection for another club (Nick Blakey and Bailey Scott are recent examples of this). Having said that, we always knew James was ineligible for us as a father-son selection so we haven't lost anything here. Just feels like we have because he'll likely become a Crow.Is NGA the same as father son? Could James just not nominate his NGA status at the draft?

Special mention to Zane Fiacchi (father George played 236 SANFL games for us between 1985-1997) who may be father-son eligible for us in 2022. George must have fulfilled the 200 SANFL game quota prior to us joining the AFL in 1997 so that would mean his son Zane is eligible for father-son status with us, right?
We didnt hide him. But i believe he was told to sit out the second half of the year
