Either you are really bloody thick or purposely missing the point. I'll try
to explain this just once more. Very simply. Read carefully.

The Father/son rules applies to ALL the AFL clubs. For those WA & SA clubs
without the VFL history, the AFL recognises their local leagues. For example
if a Bob Smith played for Swan Districts & accumulated over 100 games,
either West Coast or Freo can claim his son under the F/S rule. The Swans
can claim the ex South Melb. players' sons. The Brions can clain the ex
Fitzoy players' sons. In SA & WA, it is up to the son to choose which club.
Just like David Cloke played for both Richmond and Collingwood and Jason
Cloke could have gone to either Richmond or Collingwood. In fact initially,
he wanted to go to Richmond but they did not want him, and Collingwood did.
However that is another subject.

The $concessions ONLY apply to a few interstate clubs, not all the AFL
clubs. THAT is not equitable. The Brions had an extra $700,000 this year to
spend on its players. All the Victorian clubs did not. So YOU tell me how
that is a fair system dude? One that leads an interstate club with a
$concession card to win three flags in a row, and they probably will end up
with quite a few more over the next few years. Now unless you are a Brions
fan, HOW can you support a unfair system like that which will prevent YOUR
club from winning a flag for years dude? I just cant understand that line of
thinking at all.

So much for the other Victorian club fans hanging shit on Collingwood's loss
but we did much better than them all season & was clearly the best Vic team
in the Comp. This unfair system affects their clubs as well! Such brainy
supporters............they should ALL now support the Brions if they enjoyed
their win over us so much!! Such passionless supporters! Thankfully, we
don't have them at Collingwood dudes.
