Not sure if anyone else watching Suns vs Dogs, Atkins kicks goal, umpire standing right on line calls touched and the camera is a blur so called umpire call. Didn't realise the cameras were still that poor across country
 
Bulldogs have basically cheated by getting Jamarra Ugle.

This is why I'm hating what this sport has become. Run by muppets.
Bulldogs arguable a top 2 side already has been gifted a number 1 draft pick pretty much.

This academy crap has basically killed this game.
Expecting Bulldogs to be top 4 for the next 5 years. How can they no with the list they have now.

Relax. One day people will be bitching about us getting an unfair advantage because other clubs can't get a "fair crack" at a player we'll have the inside running on.

Cody Weightman the most unlikeable player in the AFL. Fair effort for someone who has played about 15 games.

It'll be gone before we get to take advantage.

The Bulldpgs are about to score a 203 cm F/S pick in Sam Darcy fwd /ruck who kicked 6 goals for Vic Metro very highly rated as a Top 5 pick ..

Perhaps a tad harsh to say they have cheated - just got lucky in the academy lottery and played by the rules given to them at the time. Given a similar situation, we would have expected our own club to have done the same.

The situation that led to a top 3 prospect like Ugle-Hagan being paid for with a host of lower picks (29, 33, 41, 42, 52, 54) through the academy system won't be able to happen again under the change that bids in the first round cannot be matched from this years' draft onwards - but the damage is already done.


The other unmentionable area is of course father/son prospects, which remain untouched from the changes to academies.

This year we may see Nick Daicos and Sam Darcy as the first two selections, paid for with lesser picks that don't equate to their worth.

Father/son has been kind to the Bulldogs; Darcy will become the sixth current player on their list from that source, joining Wallis, Hunter, Liberatore, West and Cordy.
 
The rules have changed haven't they? IIRC academy players can be picked by any team with pick 1-15 or so?

For NGA players:
  • In 2021 no bids can be matched on the top 20 selections.
  • From 2022 no bids can be matched on the top 40 selections.

For Father/son prospects:
  • All bids can be matched regardless of selection.

Ruined before we get a chance.
