Leave the father son alone... Academy I don't give a s**t... It's a rort anyways.

Article regarding our Father/Son's and NGA
Sons of Premiership stars get a glimpse into AFL life
Gil Wakelin, Rome Burgoyne, Louie Montgomery and Ky Burgoyne have spent some time at Alberton this week.www.portadelaidefc.com.au
"Gil Wakelin, Rome Burgoyne, Louie Montgomery and Ky Burgoyne have spent some time at Alberton this week."
"Tom and Charlie Wilson - the sons of another 2004 premiership player Michael Wilson – are also in their draft year and have recently joined the NGA program, though weren’t at Alberton this week."
Happy to wait another 2-3 years to see what we can get out of it.Father son and academy picks are and have always been a total rort and distortion of an already shaky system of equalisation. It's long overdue that clubs are forced to pay the actual price of these players.
Surely the AFL will give an understand of that in the near term.When will these possible changes be implemented or is it just a bit of spit balling at the moment?
Has another son in the Eagles U14. Good kid and a good young player. Brian will be the first one to tell you just how good as well...
Benny Barrett is a 99% certainty for us to draft. We have no Cat B's at the moment, but we're clearly keen on filling our AFL list up as much as we can through that avenue when an option arises and based on his form, in the top 2 possession winners for South U18's every week, you'd expect he is a prime candidate. Only risk would be if someone wants to take him early but we don't see him at that level. Looking forward to watching his U18 carnival though.
The article also seems to indicate Gill Wakelin is draftable this year??? This clashes with all the prior conversations around him.
Additionally interesting to hear the Wilson's are out there. Has there been any other info on them? Where do they play at the moment?
And only 50 game qualification. That's how Ben Cousins was eligible for Geelong, Heath James for Sth Melb/Sydney, Jono Brown for Fitzroy/Brisbane...while SA and WA clubs needed 7463 state league gamesWasn’t so long ago a couple of vfl teams only had to give up their last picks to get a father/son… Geelong and I think hawks.
Geebungs father son fatty porkins and Ablett jnr rort plus the hawfs plethora of free draft picks becoming generational talents and "dynasty" big vicco teams... Makes you wanna puke.
