Yes - the academy is doing well - a strong grassroots now has somewhere to go to get developed. Well done Suns and AFL on this front.

This is promising as the two local teams will eventually become less and less reliant on the interstate recruiting, having more home grown talent to consider.
Bring back the Bears.

Gold Coast could pick 5 locals this draft….but will need to delist a few to fit them in.
There are lies, damn lies and then there are ratings.

So you have a few extra players in another state of one country lol..
Hardly impressive. Maybe start boasting when you can recruit players from Fiji, England, New Zealand, Samoa, Tonga, Papua New Guinea.

Still a sport that continuously fails to gain any traction in overseas markets :lol:

Only NRL fans seem to care that Australian Rules Football is not an international sport.

It is called Australian for a reason…it is Australian.
Personally I prefer it that way…we don’t lose our best to overseas….like is going to happen more to both codes of rugby soon.
And hardly impressive!, just the Suns have used 12 local players this year…add the lions and wow…now the Storm…..arguably the most successful (on the table) NRL club in recent times…..local players this year…..0.

The Melbourne storm still can’t attract any interest from locals from Victoria after 30 years

Again you have little idea about anything
