Every player should be selected on their merits or otherwise, not because they are 'Bob's brother', or 'Kev's Son' or whatever hahaha.
The love in should Warner v2 get selected on here will make the love in about Gould on social media (on the basis of a few sightings in SANFL) look tame

Very Tasmanian.
Can you see it TB- Rowie gets the ball in the centre and with a beautiful kick finds King (doesn’t matter which one) on a quick lead who takes the mark on his chest- giving no chance for the defender and kicks the goal from 40 meters on a slight angle………….. magic!
its the trade thread isn't it ,

Love you TB!
Just get King in- doesn’t matter which one- I have faith in you! Next thing, you will appreciate what JR brings to the table.
Starting with tomorrow i hope , wont be holding my breath
The Goodes brothers
The Swans alone are littered with examples to the contrary
Anthony Stevens (North champion) was followed by our very own Gary Stevens and then Michael
Shane Crawford (Hawthorn Brownlow medalist) was followed by our own Justin Crawford
Barry Mitchell (yup, Tom’s father) had a younger brother Trevor who only ever played reserves for us
Micky O’Loughlin had a younger brother who only played a little bit with the Crows and ressies with us
Andy Otten 109 games with the Crows. Younger brother Max manager reserves games with us.
Ted Richards. Xav Richards
Kieran Jack. Brandon “28” Jack
Neil Cordy (235 games) was the eldest was followed by Neil (124 games) and youngest Graeme (27 games)
Daniel (dual premiership player) and younger brother Darren (1 game) Bradshaw

Dawson is a critical signing and dwarfs Parker in our ability to challenge for a flag IMO.
Dawson then daylight in terms of priorities.
And the jury is still out but I predict that Nathan Jones’ career will be more decorated than his younger sibling Zac
Get where your coming from, but I'm not so convinced. Only because if Parker was to leave, we have a huge 'gap' in that sort of 'elder statesmen' role in the team once Kennedy does hang up the boots. I think Parker is hugely important in that respect - he is a real leader at the footy club.
But Dawson has a great mixture of skills and is critically important too.
I still reckon we will comfortably keep both, and that Hewett's likely to be the big name that may go (Stephens may go too, but he is far from anything in terms of a proven quality afl player yet).
