Mother Son Rule
It might’ve been on here before but is it right that an AFLW player could have a gun of a son and he becomes eligible under the Mother-Son rule in the future? Yes, I know I sound desperate, looking for anything, any little leg up, any little advantage, any bit of luck...... it's because I'm now officially desperate ! We've had no luck with the father-son maybe one of our current AFLW players could give our future generations something to smile about. If it helps this club become great then bring it on. The pessimistic long term supporter inside of me says .... they'll change the rules.

Re: Mother Son Rule
If it is anything like the current father son rule, 100 games is quite a feat in the AFLW, seeing their season is much shorter. Only a handful of players have made 50 games so far.
The current father daughter rule is 1 game. Saints nabbed a player Caitlin Mathews after her father played 1 game for the mens side.

Re: Mother Son Rule
Good point. Due to their season being shorter they should reduce the amount of games to be eligible. I'm sure if there was a Mrs Daicos or Mrs Silvagni the rules would change.

Re: Mother Son Rule

Similar size & player to Andreas unless he has a huge growth spurt.
Haven’t seen much of Elwood so no comment.
Little Frankie Peckett for AFLW - future gun
Rooey’s boys should be huge, their mum has to be 5.11 to 6.0ft.
What are the ages & of Lenny & Dal’s boys?
Imagine 2030’s line up with multiple Dal Santo’s, Hayes’ & Reiwoldts
There's only one rule in the jungle! When the LYON's hungry, he eats!

Hunter Hayes turning 9 in December, Jacob is 6 & no.3 due next month..Reiwoldt’s & Dal Santo boys not sure.
I think Joey Montagna has a couple of kids also!
You’re right about Kath Reiwoldt, she’s about 6 foot.
I’ve heard Leowe & Peckett have 9 boys between them!!

Re: Mother Son Rule
No doubt once Rooy's boy's are eligible for father son selection the AFL will change the rulesSaintmike65 wrote: ↑Wed 31 Aug 2022 8:37am Surely we can finally snare some decent father/ sons…Boston Everett & Elwood Peckett sound promising..Lenny, Rooey, Dal all have multiple sons…fingers crossed

Re: Mother Son Rule
LOL - just when we get some absolute crackers coming through as Father/Mother-Son rules the AFL will adjust the rules so you cannot match if they are taken in the top 100!
