More Magpies than Power, but Ollie is wearing a Power top not a Magpie one.

Interesting statement by Josh at the end. “You don’t get there by accident” and then something about Ken I didn’t quite catch.

How much did the club pay Josh to say that statement. Jeezus

KH BS aside.
I hope the lad does well.
The Port Magpies are anally dry screwed by Sanful’s restrictions season after season, so we need all the quality depth we can get.

Lol yep. Father of son desperately hoping to earn a crack doesn't blast the coach. Huge surprise.

I think we will take Rome not in the MSD but as a F/S in 2025 or 2026.

As I wrote in another thread: Why pick him up in 2024 when he would be behind Bergman, Farrell, Jones, DBJ, Sinn, his brother, Burton, Williams, Evans and Atkins for a half back role when we can nominate him in 2025 or 2026 in a weakened draft?

This way we still get to develop him and get him used to our systems and he only takes up a AFL list space when he is a chance to play. In other words, we are simply “storing a nut for the winter” that is three upcoming, compromised drafts.

Is this possible? I thought once a father-son had been overlooked in their first eligible draft, they can no longer be nominated as a father-son in subsequent drafts?

Geoff Parker in his 2024 draft press conference talked about Rome Burgoyne and Lou Montgomery and said they are both still tied to Port as father-sons and we may draft them this year.

 

[RussellEbertHandball]

I know rules change over 20+ years ago, but Brett Ebert was ignored by 16 clubs in 2001 draft, then we nominated him for father-son in 2002 draft.

A son of an eligible father should always be able to be nominated by the father's club, if they believe he is good enough and will pay the appropriate price, as not everyone progresses at the same speed, and there are plenty of examples of 21, 23 even 26 year olds being drafted for the first time.

Francou knows all about finishing up high on the ladder and then not getting the job done when it matters most.

 

[SonOfKek]

We haven't got there

And that's the glaring issue with this squad. "Getting there" means they're getting paid the big bucks to play, they're going to be treated like celebrities and live the life.

Victorian clubs will actively push players like that out of their system and into the VFL or foist them onto whatever room temperature IQ midwits (Chris Davies) who is willing to risk it all for no reward.

Welcome Oscar Graham Hartlett. Its bit early but he looks like he'll fit nicely into the midfield in 2034.

10 year old midfielders are the future

2043 F/S

Oops. Should have been 2044.

 

[RangaInTeal]

Welcome Oscar Graham Hartlett. Its bit early but he looks like he'll fit nicely into the midfield in 2034.

Hopefully his hamstrings develop a bit better than daddies, actually the Hartlett Genes struggled with leg development, didn’t Adam have horrible Hamstrings throughout his career also? Hopefully Mum was a Gymnast?

 

[TeeKray]

This thread can get a little weird and creepy at times, there should be an embargo on talking about anyone who is under about 15 and/or anyone who has never actually picked up a football in their life.

 

[JimmyBC]

Ken's coaching tenure will be old enough to be drafted soon
