TSG, was thinking of players not returning back to the SANFL.
Had some real quality players come to the SANFL in the past couple of years...Batsanis, Cachia, Brad Fisher, Joel Tippet, Collier, Eddy (not that he played his best footy here),Currie just to name a few.
How do you know this years crop of ex AFL players won't be any good except for you beloved Tuck who gets by on name only to be fair? We have no idea how our ex AFL guys will do - Gordon will be a very handy midfield addition and watch out re Archer - he is a big unit and a like for like replacement for Alleway - who incidentially was a former AFL listed player when he signed for North in 2006 but prior to him actually playing would not have been tagged as "quality ex AFL"!
You mentioned Currie who spent 5 years on the Swans list and never played an AFL League game. He turned out to be a real gain for North and hopefully goes on to a good AFL career but you could hardly call him quality prior to start of 2012. As for most of the others you mentioned (as quoted) none of them came with "quality" as a tag re being ex AFL.
I can't believe you allowed yourself to post that rubbish yet include your own teams recruit on name only?
Piss weak SANFL and the CLOWNS who run it.
