It sounded like this year and next year

Yep, no players going to do that

Ah yes.

Interesting that the club gave Dodson a Cat B option at the start of the year. Would have required him not to play footy at all this year.

Smart move - like what Collingwood did with their cat b college basketballer

Yep, no players going to do that

He very nearly did

I would do it if I had a promising basketball career and a us college offer

Rucks don’t play for years anyway

He should have gone to College, enjoyed the experience and then he would have been Cat B eligible and could pick his club.
Stupid decision in my book.
I wonder if his previous knee injury scared him a bit?

Yeah convince him to go to college while he builds his body up then recruit him straight into the list when he’s more physically ready to impact- win/win.

Shame he didnt go for it
