“Oliver Green, son of club legend and current president Brad Green, Oliver was a clear standout during the carnival games. He was an explosion of excitement and energy and had the ability to break open the match. With clean skills as a developing inside-mid, he’s one to keep on the radar in the not-so-distant future”

Too soon for another Oliver

Time heals all wounds. Fast forward 2 decades to F/S Oliver Oliver.

Great to see some F/Ss coming through

How many years away from draft year? Is he a genuine chance?

Not to rain on the parade but the AFL will change father/son rules and Oilver will end up at Collingwood.

Thanks Trigon, I was actually being facetious but realised tone doesn't really come through. We have some excition father son prospects with Kalani White, Noah Yze and Oliver Green. Who else am I missing? Are the Robbo or Neita kids coming through?

Tex Travis Johnstone's son is another, plus Kalani's twin brothers and Davey's son. I remember seeing vision of Matty Whelan's son playing as power forward - not sure how if he's another potential one.

It’s okay, I got the vibe. Robbo’s kid was also mentioned in the carnival notes.

Marley Davey is a year or two behind them.

Apologies Tex is Robbo's son, Travis' son is Tigga. Then there are the other Brown boys sons of Nathan.

There’s a host of f/s coming through Kalani, Robbo’s boy Tex, Travis Johnstone’s boy Tigga, Brads boy Oliver, Anthony zmcDonalds boy, Peter Walsh’s boy, Aaron Davey’s son Marley?, Matty Whelans boy mentioned above plus the younger White’s. Let’s hope that a few of these youngsters take after their dads.😁👍

Doesnt he need to go to Manchester United first?

That's definitely some raining. Thanks for that.

Yeah the AFL will surely ruin this run of F/S. I dont think any of them are banging the door down for a top 10 selection but early days i suppose.

Next years draft?

I think he’s a few years away, possibly 2028.

Pretty sure I read that the massive power forward thought to be Matty Whelan's son was another Matty Whelan. Haha

Think 2035

All the sons playing for the Dees

Sounds like a Blues Brothers film : they’re putting the band back together!

The afl were just going to get rid of the discounts weren't they? Which is fair enough if you ask me.

I actually like the look of Oliver Greeves.
