Heard him speak on Saturday at a lunch, riveting bloke to listen too. It's no coincidence that Geelong are top of the table since he's been CEO. ;)
I like the idea, it would mean a more even distribution of talent in state leagues and possibly make teams like the Power and Crows reserves redundant,

That would be great. Could be going into a grand final and lose 4 players to another club.

Team bus could get hit by lightning on the way to the game too!
Better to go into a grand final than lose a prelim because 2 AFL reserves are in the GF also! ;)

What sort of bus are they driving out at the Roosters, Wedgie? One that doesn't take rubber tyres?

Or did they leave the bus at Elizabeth Oval overnight?

What a star in the making.

Usually I have a giggle to myself when the AFL media suggest that we have a "super draft" coming up, but wow, look what's been served up to us already this sesaon.
