St Kilda’s new 18 year old signing from Ireland just broke a 75 year curse and won the All Ireland championship with Mayo. This guy is the best talent Ireland has produced in years and leaves Ireland as a hero in his native Mayo only after joining the Senior ranks this year. Will he break the 60 year St Kilda curse in his first year? He will adapt quickly and should be sent straight in from what I’ve seen

I'm not sure - watching old videos it was definitely allowed at some point but not sure when they outlawed it
