since when could you sign up 17 year olds?

was thinking that when I read the first post.

Perhaps it's like horses and they have different birthdays in the Northern hemisphere compared to the Southern

    Well Lions and Saints each sign an Irish boy with big raps.

    Original Team that started the Irish experiment has none on its list.

    Just saying.

    Hopefully these two don’t become stars of the AFL.

    Why is this so?

    They let them train in green jumpers and celebrate St. Patrick’s day.

    Seriously though have the Saints played a lot of Irish boys?

    Yes I wasn’t aware of the Irish connection, I would have thought Swans, Blues and Cats, maybe Saints have a closer affinity with the Paddy Wagon🤪

    I mean I suppose it wouldn’t be a shock if he went to St Kilda considering that’s where half the Irish start off at when they come out here( myself included). Be a shame though as it sounds like he has a lot of potential.

    Redleg and I are wondering why this is so. 😃

    Local soccer club (State League 1SE) for that area is St Kilda Celts.

    For decades we have had a Macdonald on our list some years some years 2, one was a captain. The lone surviver is Tmac who is likely to only have 2026 left. Get the boy!

    saints played an irish guy this year Liam O'Connell, and also have Eammon Armstrong on their list

    the article i read said he was joining mid 2026 after final exams, so its probably a birthday between now and them and this is just an official commitment, cat b rookies can be recruited whenever so he can probably be listed now at lodgement to join in june or whenever

    st kilda is also referred to s county kilda by expats as the area of melbourne as a huge irish community and presence

    Sorry for all the confusion, folks. I was making a light hearted reference to the extreme religiosity of traditional Ireland. At least Demonstone was on the wavelength.

    A lot of silly comments posted here.

    The Club should be completely embarrassed that it had 2 champion Irish players 40 years ago & has mostly ignored Irish recruits since who have gone on to success at other Clubs.

    Another pathetic tale of fail from MFC administration.

    I would have thought it’s the players responsibility/choice to tell their clubs?

    • AFLW REPORT: Adelaide

      Last week’s bitter disappointment turned into player-led resolve as Captain Kate Hore marched her team onto a pristine Princes Park under perfect skies.
      The #DeeArmy banner said Bring The Heat and the Demons delivered a fierce, high-quality contest and ultimately outworked and outpaced the gallant Adelaide Crows to win by 11 points.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Adelaide

      Noffy, Hatchy and Randy lead Adelaide’s finals-hardened flock to IKON Park for a blockbuster semi-final against Kate Hore and Hanksy’s mighty Demons.  Adelaide has dropped four of its past five matches at this ground — let’s hope that trend holds.  But don’t expect charity — Doc Clarke brings an experienced, battle-worthy murder of Crows.
