I know someone who plays with him at local level. He was shocked when Ted was given a scholarship. Not even the most promising player in the team. I doubt anything will come of Ted.
BF has plenty of well informed people regarding draftees. Especially at this time of year, some of them really know potential draftees.
Certainly more knowledgeable than most of the posters here in that regard.
I too unfortunately have a Collingwood partner. I try to be supportive, but I really struggle. She will never switch, but I'm adamant that should we ever have kids, they will be demons!
