He could do a Joel Selwood and step straight into a premiership team.
it doesnt say anywhere WHY he was wearing the melbourne jumper... just a thought, maybe he wants to play for us? at least at this stage
Wouldn't it be great to get one top player under the father son rule. Apart from Chris Jonhnson who was the last player we picked up under the fs rule. I can't recall any top player coming through that way. What about the grandfather - grandson rule? Didn't we do great with Cordner junior. Big, strong, athletic - couldn't catch a cold! Those were the days
I didn't say otherwise, I just stated that he doesn't have to accept the father/son rule if he doesn't wish to play at Melbourne.

Joel Selwood's first year was '07...
Think he was saying Joel was drafted in '06 when Cats missed the finals
Barassi jr
omit, he was the first one, we made sure this rule was gonna happen, he was a damned near certainty of being a player. Otherwise he would have been drafted by carlton, ironic isnt it lol

You are aware they won a flag in '07?
I would say he came into a good team who'd had a bad year.
2 years ago Jack Viney played under 16's for South Australia.
From memory there were 1 or 2 players in the squad that were playing a year above their age, but Jack was the only player who was 2 years above his age for any state.
He regularly featured in the bests - he is a budding star.
Dont know much about young Grinter though - where is he playing and what type of player is he?

I reckon we might be able to find room on our list 
We already love him!
But seriously - I thought he played with SA with another 2 years to play?
Anyway - what else do you know about him, and do you have any reports on how he went in the tournament?
2012 I believe, so still quite a bit of time until he becomes a Demon.
Probably a the best result for us though, we'll get a gun player for under his draft worth and he's protected.
Also he'll be coming into a team that's had 2, 3 and 4 years development which means he'll be able to slot in and go about his own business and get a bit of protection.
Jack was named BOG last week for the North Adelaide reserves
