yeah understand what you're saying, and it couldn't be another shade lighter - but i just think it stands out and is really distinctive and i love it ....
Hope he's got the same amount of campaigner tho.

There’s a great article on the AFL website about the draft and leading up to the draft from a parents perspective. It’s written by Hugo’s father.
It’s interesting and I think there’s probably a few people on here that might find it interesting.

Great read! Would love to get one from the clubs perspective even though it will never happen. Especially from clubs who interview the same kid multiple times and don't pick them.

Was Sean, himself, a draftee or a zone selection?

Oh cool
Terrific story ,
I like a man who can recall one off Simpsons characters from 25 years ago!
My brain has a disturbing amount of this sort of information in it. Episodes that I haven’t even watched for 10-15 years

Yeah I cringed, Dods must be on the spectrum I think.
This was the best part of that interview though:
"They play his highlights vision on the screen behind him while he’s talking (he ignores it to focus on his interview, whilst I crane my neck to watch the good bits). They ask why his national championships campaign wasn't great. Why he doesn't get over 20 touches very often. Then two questions I'll remember his answer to...
Are you going to be an ok AFL player, a good player or a great player?
“I’ll be a great player,” he states confidently.
How great? What will they say about you in this draft in five years' time?
“They’ll look back and say I should have been a top-10 pick."
Wow. He surprises even his dad with this response. They acknowledge it with a smile. Great!"
Now just because Hugo has the balls to say it doesn't mean it will be...... But good on him for sizing up the situation and responding with equilibrium! I'm not hearing too many Bomber fans shouting 'Go Dodoro you good thing' in the Recruitment Stakes!
