And if his Dutch Dad was born overseas as well?

Yes, I was thinking of the players on the list, but 70000 is a better number.

Maybe I could duct tape one of uncle’s old wine casks and sell it for millions.

Another great post.

I suppose if we sign him to Casey, we can sort of hold him if another club tries to take him first.

Well I did get into music.

I don't follow what you said. If there are no list spots, what is the relevance of a player getting injured? If you have a LTI, they can be replaced by someone on the rookie list. I don't believe you can go and just put someone on your list, if you have a LTI, whenever you want to. Do you mean our senior list is full, but we can Category B rookie him?

He will make 44 friends at the Dees instantly, when he joins them as a Demon player.

I knew I should have gone into banana art.

Well we don’t want to accuse Uncle of being a tight ar-e, but I think the maid has noticed some of her fags missing from time to time.

Just voted in the MFC Election. I was shocked Uncle Bitter wasn’t a candidate. I could just imagine the meetings at the manor.

Don't think it's payback, as the rules are there for every team. It's whether he fits the criteria or not.

All the Carlton players in the light blue M and M jumper some years ago looked pretty rank.

I have just quickly scanned the AFL rules and I think he may possibly qualify as an over age NGA or Academy Player or former Academy Player or even by decision of the AFL General Counsel on discretionary grounds looking at all the circumstances. I guess we will know in the near future. Don't quote me on the above, as it was a mere quick scan of some of the Rules on Rookies.

That seems to go against what Ghostwriter was saying. If you are correct and he is only on the Casey list and he plays well, we can say goodbye to him, as he will go before our pick. There must be more to this if Richo is doing the paperwork and not the Casey footy admin.

Ray and his late wife were very close friends of my son in law’s mother.

Well that is good news then, as JT would know the eligibility criteria and it is probably only a matter of if we want to list him. If we haven’t got anyone better in mind, then hopefully we take him and give him his chance with us.

Did JT tell you that?

We are rebuilding while we still are competing for finals. Exciting times ahead hopefully.

Was it announced somewhere as a possible Category B spot, or just that he is training? Turns 23 in January so still young.

No lets all have an argument about it. 😉 Whatever, he is taller than Bowey and Spargo.

That is good news. He was very impressive in the Casey game I saw, doing some pretty amazing things. Looks the type who could improve in an AFL system.

Especially since the AFL failed to act on it at the time and then outlawed the act later and secondly as it was the AFL who put Gus out of the game, on their direction.

I agree with most of the post except that I believe Maynard never intended to knock Gus out. I believe his intent was to make him earn it and wear one, but it went horribly wrong. I think it is just wrong to think that the intention was to knock Gus out and end his career. Believe me I am as angry as all of us at the circumstances and yes he should have got 6 weeks, but we know what the AFL is all about.

Agree. Let him be and hopefully star in our next flag.
