Papley (Crouchy..+ 10%)
Heeney (we wish)
Sam Reid (Our perfect King foil)

Geelong https://www.draftguru.com.au/lists/2022/geelong
Mitch Duncan (Ross is the Kingswood, Duncan is the Premier)
Tyson Stengyl (Higgo, Butts, eat your heart out)
Tom Atkins (I want Bytel to be this)

From Sydney I'd have at our club Number 1, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 11, 13, 14, 17, 21, 22, 26 etc....

You get the picture. Both have good depth too. The Swans VFL team finished 4th this year and the Cats team VFL squad was in finals last year

Father/sons and academy players make a big difference in a very even competition.

Geelong also very lucky to get players who will play for less than they would if they lived in a big city.

Under 31 seems very arbitrary. Especially when Duncan is 31 and Reid would be before next season.

But as stated above, De Konning is the correct answer. His dad played a practice match with us but we didn’t sign him. Bloody Richo, or was it Ross Lyon?

31 because..

a) they wont come over on a contract at 32,33 etc. (unless a ruckman)
b) Geelong have so many dinasours, Sydney have Buddy etc.


You're quite brilliant Shane, yeah..terrific!
