You do realise very few rookies get to the team they support as a kid?

Yea but most teams leave them alone if they are not commited. You Have to be one of those teams that have had success or have really nice backhand incentives to turn them around.
As a South African born AFL fan meself I can tell you there's a difference between true blue Aussie AFL supporters and us. You'ze Aussies cite the performance of our team in your medical history, your tax statements and your kids 21st birthday parties.
He'll come round.
He'll come round.
Haselby and Steven Hill were WCE supporters.....they turned out ok.

Just heard Nadia Mitsopoulos say she is interviewing Neil on ABC 720 after 10am news this morning
You must have one of the worst cases of football PTSD I've ever seen. Literally no good player in our history has ever requested a trade to West Coast, and we have drafted literally hundreds of West Coast supporters

Love that the kid is across Clark winning two of the four time trials earlier this week - he might have been a West Coast fan (which, for mine, means absolutely nothing to most players when they make it to the big leagues) but he was tuned into the detail of Freo's news before getting picked up.

Potentially... we've drafted 234 players in our history. We are currently running at 50% West Aussies.
So probably not hundreds of Eagle's fans.
The point stands though, professionals play where they are picked and played and we don't trade players between the clubs in the men's league

I don’t think they’d be rusted on WC supporters anyway.
new to the country, would have followed the majority from their circles (church, work etc) in order to fit in.
Kid and his mates look stoked.

To paraphrase Robert Muldoon, if a player ever moved from the Dockers to the Eagles, it would immediately increase the IQ of both teams
O'Driscoll was a Freo fan, so that's one out of 234!
O'Driscoll and Steven Dodd are the only two I can think of for sure.
