I'm beginning to feel that the game and modern sports has moved past F/S. It is a great storyline and is sweet for the family but in terms of integrity in the competition it's a bit of a farce.
Of course the Vic clubs are going to have way more opportunity to get F/S selections, and further to that the scenario described is a big reason why it shouldn't be in a modern sport. A major point of the draft is equalisation but you're undermining it the instant you allow a team to take someone who they have no right taking just because their Dad played for them 20 years ago.
I'm in favour of either scrapping it or making teams pay much more for the selections. You shouldn't get a top 5 talent because you forfeit a few picks in the 40s, that's a joke.
I don't get this idea, please explain how Vic teams have way more opportunity to get a F/S?
Apart from GWS & Gold Coast, every other team has been in the competition over 25 years now. Getting to 100 games takes usually what? 5 to 6 seasons?
How do Vic sides get more opportunities to F/S picks these days?
