<p style='color: #424242;][span style='letter-spacing: 0px;]An ORFFL curio for you all; only 2 players have spent 3 years at an ORFFL Club (and are going into their 4th) while having played less than 20 AFL games. Want to guess who those 2 lucky folk are?
<p style='color: #424242;]
<p style='color: #424242;][span style='letter-spacing: 0px;]SPOILER ALERT
<p style='color: #424242;]
<p style='color: #424242;][span style='letter-spacing: 0px;]Matthew Buntine TLP (21yo, ORFFL Career avg. 62.44, 16 games)
<p style='color: #424242;][span style='letter-spacing: 0px;]Daniel Menzel HDH (23yo, ORFFL Career avg. 0.00, 0 games)
<p style='color: #424242;]
<p style='color: #424242;][span style='letter-spacing: 0px;]Before I proceed with some mild condemnation it behooves me to point out that generally I'm in favour of giving 3 year contracts to recruits under 21 years of age. Any number of those 51 weeks could be spent in the lower leagues, suffering from injury or sent to a remedial school to learn how run defensively. You suffer these absences in the hope that by the end of this 3 year contract that they'd have shown something in the preceding years on your list to suggest that by the end of their next 3 year contract they'd be firmly established in your sides B15. Warranting the investment of both a presumably early draft pick and the 3 years they've spent on your list doing probably not much.
<p style='color: #424242;]
<p style='color: #424242;][span style='letter-spacing: 0px;]So let's cut to the chase and get out the blowtorch and pliers; I don't think Buntine has shown that he'll be in GWS B22 in 3 years, and thus if he's not playing, he won't be making any ORFFL sides B15.

<p style='color: #424242;][span style='letter-spacing: 0px;]And similarly thusly, Daniel Menzel. Nup.
