Father/Son Possibility For St Kilda in 2010

[SaintBot]

this is an interesting case i believe


A player who is on a scholarship at an elite Melbourne school, Melbourne Grammar (the same on that Tom Hawkins and Xavier Ellis came from) is a 15 turning 16 year old who is built like a tank, but runs like...a runner, he is an aboriginal from up north



Steve May is rated the 2nd best player in the country for his age


While there are still many facts that im not sure of this could be very interesting


May lives in Victoria and his fulltime guardians (in vic or full time, not sure of facts yet) are our very own Xavier and Raphael Clarke


May, may have a father who is living fine in NT and pehaps May lives there during holidays/weekends

but say Steve no longer has a father and Xavier/Raph were his full time legal guardians would he be elligible to join St Kilda under the F/S rule?

is there a rule stating your father must be biological?

not saying this will happen, looks very unlikely but im sure one day there may be a case like this




if for anything at all most of you will have learnt the name Steve May as one to listen out for in the next few years and that Xavier/Raph are gaining parental skills

very much doubt it, can you imagine if it was allowed Buckley would have 60 adopted kids all aged 18.

I think he may be the son of Paul T May.

It's a Father/Son rule, not a Guardian/Son rule. Would be a farce if we did get him.

I was thinking that if this form of cheating was a possibility there would be 100's of adopted Kernahans, Bradleys etc running around !!
