Tairon Ah-Mu - No access for Dees NGA Talent
also, we know that gc17 and gw$ have a limit in terms of how many nga kids they can have - 4 if they don't make finals, 2 if they do does the same apply for clubs with access to both f/s and nga selections? as such, would we be limited to 2 if when we make finals in 2025? i expect it's more rules-on-the-run from the afl

Tairon Ah-Mu - No access for Dees NGA Talent
the mfcss in me says there's no chance they backdate it, particularly if the kid is expected to be a top 10 selection as a key position forward anyway, our draft targets at the end of 2025 are clearly kalani white and toby sinnema; ah-mu who?

in theory that's true in reality, we all know it's far, far from it

Tairon Ah-Mu - No access for Dees NGA Talent
clubs should have ZERO claim on the nga 'zones' imo it's not as bad as the bad old days when clubs would move players across the street in order to change their zones, but it's not far off imagine how the pear feel about darryl borlase's kid - his dad was a legend of the club at sanfl level, but because his son was born in egypt while his dad was working for the wheat board (i think it was), he was 'zoned' to the crom ridiculous situation that makes the ah-mu is-he-isn't-he (which was only the case here, not at the club, it would seem) situation pale by comparison

PRESEASON TRAINING: Wednesday 5th February 2025
langford and chaplin, i assume, in lieu of langdon and chapman! very encouraging, particular the howes and turner comments as they're the sort of players we need to be assuming regular key roles at either end

Kozzy Homesick & Wants to Leave?
players who left and went to different clubs - houston was telling everyone he was going to the baggers, and tippett was telling everyone he was going to the bears players who were under contract, stayed, and played in premierships - papley was telling everyone he was going to the baggers, as was ryan o'keefe

Kozzy Homesick & Wants to Leave?
cos he's under contract til the end of 2027 and loves the club, he just doesn't love living in melbourne

Kayo is 4K in 2024
if you ask some former disney employees, it was meant to launch about two years ago, but got pushed back significantly due to resource strain last i heard they were aiming for nfl 25/26 season launch, but i don't think they'll make that timeline at this point in time
