When does father-son bidding begin? It has to be before the trade period.

I saw that there is a Montgomery, a small defender in SA.

Wonder if it's Ken Montgomery's grandson?

Although, Ken was a bit taller than this boy.

But which day? I was thinking trade period starts today.
Aren't the F/S nominations finalised first thing on the first morning of trade period? Usually just a few kids up for grabs n everyone already knows the rough pecking order. Nominations would all be done in the first half hour of trade day.

Re: father sons- father sons 2011 2012 2013

Jack Viney has warned Melbourne that if they don't pick him he won't return to the club at any stage.

http://www.heraldsun.com.au/afl/jack-viney-says-melbourne-will-only-get-one-chance-to-secure-him-and-he-will-make-them-pay-if-they-dont/story-e6frf9io-1226487764727

Hopefully gets picked up before pick 9. Adds a touch more value to our pick #9 as opposed to Melbourne getting him with their 2nd rounder.

Here's hoping one of GWS or GC place a bid for him.

Hard on some of those Dads .
Steve Wallis was an excellent player for the dogs, Ray Shaw was a Collingwood captain and fine player and as already mentioned John Murphy was a gun at Fitzroy, not far off his son.

But the point is largely correct. Joel Bowden was a much better player than his Dad as was Richo as 2 Tiger examples. John Scarlett was a good player but not in the same class as Matthew.

Ray Shaw was a decent player but being captain of Collingwood doesn't mean much I mean look at their current captain.
