You are right the qualification criteria is not aligned to the intent and spirit of the rule. All I would add is to remove the discount make the clubs pay market value there is enough advantage simply being able to match the bid. Flags also key awards like Brownlow Coleman B&F should also be considered.It actually makes sense.
It's ridiculous that all clubs care for is Premierships and once you win one you're part of the clubs history forever, but you have to play 100 games for your kid to follow in your footsteps.
While some player who never amounted to much at all, who plays 100 games at a club that achieves nothing, has their kid able to walk into the AFL club of their choice.
