You used to be able to. Have they changed that rule? Would be ridiculous if they did. Mind you, the whole concept of a super goal is bloody ridiculous, IMO.
If you get a 50 now, you can elect to take it to the paint and get 9 or take the full 50 and get 6

+ 1.
Swans are blatant cheats.

But the AFL have created a monster with GWS - 27 top 20 draft picks!!!

In 2-3 years noone apart from maybe the Gold Coast will get within 10 goals of them.

It's making our flag vision look very shaky.
The AFL were so determined to not have another Brisbane Bears repeat they have over corrected to make an even bigger blunder.

Surely they will not be able to hold onto them all under the salary cap.

If they held on to half of those top 20 picks they'd still be a force.

That's another worry.
Sure some will walk and fa themselves, but many will get traded for more picks to keep building the list

Who is going to 2016-2019 gf games between gc and gws. Should be a riot

Gws will probably pay them all around 300K .

The afl will make them Western sydney cultural ambassadors and pay them 500k !
Why would they leave !
