It could but it won'tWell - IF Zones come in. Could that Change then?
That is a better zoneOn the Draft Board. A person said we could get Aligned to the Oakleigh Chargers
It could but it won't
There's a lot of things to be said for the old zoning system. Clubs were invested in the country. Where I live now used to be Collingwood's zone while just North (Horsham) was Essendon. Carlton used to have Bendigo (and didn't they get some players from there Ashman, Keogh, Armstrong, Kennedy) What I liked about the system was that the clubs really put time and effort in to zone development. Now there is token input at best.
The power clubs seemed to do very well and Geelong weren't so good. I think this was testimony to development and systems (and probably some dodgy cash deals) rather than natural talent. Geelong at this time were a basket case of a club.
I've never liked the draft....I think its structured and cozy.
Still 70% are VicsThen I guess Murray Bushrangers would just go to GWS then as the Team that Get’s Stuck with Them would have a Very UnFair Deal

Hopefully zones are never brought inBut other Teams would have 100% of the TAC Cup Players to work it not just 70%
AGree ... still think Clubs should be allocated a country zone or leagues to developThe Draft makes it Fairer as Teams just don’t have a Good Zone and Milk it.
Hawthorn had that as they had ton of Private Schools around them
Hopefully zones are never brought in

I dare say there be Rules to Stop That
NO NO NO NO NO NO NO
ZONING KILLED VFL FOOTY FOR 25 YEARS, KILLED 2 CLUBS, PUT 4 MORE TO THE WALL, AND NARROWED FLAGS TO ONLY 4 CLUBS TIL WE JUMPED UP AND SNAGGED 90. IT WAS THE BIGGEST RORT EVER IMPOSED ON FOOTY - BIGGER THAN THE CURRENT DRUG SAGA. DO NOT LET IT HAPPEN EVER AGAIN.
#NOTOZONING
The AFL will make it sure lot Different as still have a Draft and Teams want Players then goes to the Bidding System.
Lot different to the old Zone’s System
dont make me say NO NO NO NO NO again
Won't happen - once they all sober up they'll see it as the stupid idea it is.

I know that I live in the heart of the old Collingwood zone but they are talking about aligning AFL clubs with TAC cup clubs not going back to the old zones so Carlton would get the Knights
GWS already have a zone, where do you think their academy kids come from?Then I guess Murray Bushrangers would just go to GWS then as the Team that Get’s Stuck with Them would have a Very UnFair Deal
It's a pointless discussion because this won't happen (despite it having my full support) on top of the most logical TAC club to align Collingwood to is the Knight's and Carlton's is the Pioneer's.
