^^No. Just means we would have to give up a higher pick if another team offers something. It wouldn't be a father-son rule if any team could take him.
Well done boys!

Danniher or however it's spelt had the option of two clubs. He than chose Essendon.

At this point, all clubs sit together and discuss when they would chose Danniher. He was touted as a No.1 pick in the 2012 national draft. If not at least top 5.

This being the case, the teams that would have selected him would say we would use our round one pick for him. Essendon are obliged at this point to use round 1. If Essendon said no, we want to use R2, then he's back on the market.

If he was to go round 6 or 7 Essendon then could wait for R6 or 7 to grab him.

I'll take your word for it.

Where does he play exactly?

Geelong have done well out of FS as well. We had Jamie Turner as well as Trav and Heater. OK Oborne and Brayden Shaw were duds but Rhys Shaw was useful.

He's not eligible to be drafted until 2014. He's only 16.

We are pretty much sure to recruit Craig Stewart's son this year however.

The problem with these father-sons is that they are all key position players. We have a big hole in the midfield, with none of the current crop of our juniors looking like they will be stars.

I think we will have to trade out one or two of our young key position players to bring in some quality young midfielders.

He must be taller than they say in the article as peter was a 6 foot 6 ruckman. unless his dad is standing in a pot hole for the photo.

Yeah I'm aware he's too young to be drafted for some time, was simply reading between the lines and suggesting Darcey to Pies is just about a done deal.
And as they say a quality big men are hard to find so in the worst case scenario we'll have some bargaining chips in years to come.

PS. don't forget Elijah Edwards who despite his lack of size is being groomed to play in the guts.

Nothing better than seeing the new generations of Collingwood families. I hope this happens.
