We can ruin him there too, make him compete for scraps in a forward line full of seasoned KPF dudsCan’t ruin him in the AFL when he is in the VFL all season.
Same.I'd just started attaching myself emotionally to that monster Polynesian kid, damn
Or If the AFL like Red and Blue Balling us as far as NGAs are concerned ..Wouldn't surprise me if he was always ineligible and we didn't check the rules properly.

Look I am trying to process my anger in healthier ways.And ignore function too many shit puns
This makes no sense.Or ineligible after this years rule changes, the ones that would have made Mac Andrew eligible to us.
This makes no sense.
If Ah Mu is picked up in the top 40 and the AFL had not have changed the rules then he wouldn't have been eligible for us anyway.How so? You don’t even know what they changed to ascertain that it isn’t what has made Ah-Mu ineligible.
How then do we get Ah Mu?If Ah Mu is picked up in the top 40 and the AFL had not have changed the rules then he wouldn't have been eligible for us anyway.
He doesn't and never has met draft eligible criteria. That's under the rules. Been in the program but not qualified for draft access. Not a recent development.
If he's not eligible for priority selection he just becomes any other player in the draft.How then do we get Ah Mu?
Would love to know what the actual criteria is.
From the website:Would love to know what the actual criteria is.
Port are trying to get access to a kid because his dad went on Ancestry.com a couple of months ago.
That still doesn't explain why he would get included in the academy but not eligible for priority access. It seems arbitrary.From the website:
The program is targeted at Multicultural and Indigenous communities who may not have as much opportunity to be involved in football programs, or who have limited understanding of the game and how it is played.
Being of Samoan heritage, I would have though Ah-Mu would qualify. I cant recall many other Samoans making the grade.
The academy is supposedly open for all kids between 11-18 but those are the qualifications to be able to qualify as an NGA talent.That still doesn't explain why he would get included in the academy but not eligible for priority access. It seems arbitrary.
So, if he's an NGA player, as described in the AFL.com.au article, why Don't the Dees get priority access to him?The academy is supposedly open for all kids between 11-18 but those are the qualifications to be able to qualify as an NGA talent.
What had been reported is he's not an NGA player, he's just been training with the academy kids. I have no idea why he's not an NGA player though.So, if he's an NGA player, as described in the AFL.com.au article, why Don't the Dees get priority access to him?
Interesting.I mentioned this a few weeks ago and got laughed at. I heard we have a 2 year deal on the table with another couple of clubs also interested. Supposedly he's not happy with Brendon Goddard. He's happy looking around. Hopefully our offer isn't too good to refuse. Doubt he'll cost us anything though. Probably better than the tall depth we currently have in the F50. Pretty obvious with all the sh** going on at the club right now, we're not landing a big fish. I think Membrey has 1 year left with Saints but they haven't offered anything beyond that.
