Time to start tracking the twins.

Perhaps live links embedded in the thread to Jeff's x, instagram, tiktok, facebook, whatever?

Should more than satisfy the need 😉

When can we expect them to be rolling off the draft conveyer belt?

Have heard one of the twins is an absolute gun, potential even better then Kalani.

If they are any good, the AFL will probably restrict access to the father sons rule than let us have the next Ascrofts.

Conversely, it could be pretty cool to have a contemporary version of the Feby twins in the red and blue.

It's fascinating how many different opportunities the AFL has to feed our MFCSS.

Yeah, agreed, but I think there's actually quite some realisim to my thinking as well.

We all saw what happened with Jamarra Ugle-Hagan, then us loosing Mac Andrew to GC.

Already Ross Lyon and others are calling out that the academies and FS are not serving the equalisation measures in the AFL well (which to a certain extent I think is true). I do foresee huge pressure to roll the FS concessions back at some point in the future.

Oh, I'm inclined to think MFCSS is very soundly based! 😄

From looking at an old 'potential father son' article on the Melbourne website, the White twins should both be 14 now. If they both want to go down that road, they'll be drafted in 2029.

I think its Tahj. There was a mention in another thread where someone relayed Kalani's comment of "Watch out for Tahj".

I remember listening to a podcast a while ago where Jeff said he had kept Tahj and Kai out of the GC academy when they were younger to let them just enjoy their footy. If Tahj is any good, no doubt we'll be fighting GC to get him.

This one?

I hope so.

sadly, i think the father-son will be killed off by the time they are eligible

my mfcss tells me that this means that they will be elite

By the time they're ready, father son rule will be unfortunately scrapped imo.

Yeah 100%. There will a new twin exclusion clause introduced when the media picks up on their potential to then be reversed one year later.

Nah, I'd take the inland route and avoid the toll roads.

Or they'll give access but no discount

I hear it now bypasses GOOnDiWINdi.

Something about a new direction...

Any chance they're both 2 metres tall already?

this is fine. this is what it should be. no discount for FS or for academy players. first access yes but no discount.

with the change of rules, it sounds like if they are both highly rated in their draft year we are going to need LOTS of points to secure them

Are they 3 to 4 years away?

Trade future picks and senior players.
