Another Father/Son At Geelong
It might as well be called "The Tom Hawkins Rule", the new AFL system of bidding for father/son players. But Geelong should be able to draft another player even with the new rule as their choice, Adam Donohue, isn't attracting attention from many other teams.
Collingwood should also be able to get their player, Jaxson Barham, with their final pick of the AFL draft. Darcy Daniher's move to Essendon should be a bit more eventful, and Essendon will probably need to use a fourth or even third round pick to secure him.
