If everything is true and the INS so far for the Dogs are Lawton, Collier, O'Brien and Nason plus Dutschke and Nash to return very early into the season im over the moon, very impressive.


How many of the ins are proven at the level?


They don't have to be proven, they have to prove themselves, hence Centrals, and to a lesser extent, the Eagles successes over the last decade

Exactly, dont think you can be overly confident until you see them on the park at SANFL level.

A 192 cm monster? He's more of a running/third tall defender isn't he?

You probably can't be confident. Centrals supporters can. But I give you credit for trying to make a negative statement about us, you'll possibly be correct one day.

Yeah, not every recruit will make it, and we don't know until the footy gets under way. But those that do are invaluable with the attitude they bring, ie football doesn't owe them anything. Unlike some recruits off AFL lists.

Like 8 other clubs at this stage of the off-season I guess. The fact the dogs have dutschke nash sibenaler to come back
is scary enough for me. Yet alone recruits like Collier Lawton Nason ???
Eagles with shirley and eddy the only real threat to them at this stage.

I'd back the maggies for top five but it does depend on availability of some afl players(Surjan/Ebert).
Maric/Lokan are huge losses for us . Beard is a gem though.

He takes offence very easily Dutchy.

Just heard from the horse's mouth, O'Brien HAS signed with Centrals!! ;) :D of course, he's not been tried at SANFL level, so I won't get TOO excited just yet.

Good pick ups by the Dogs there, they seem to have covered the losses as well as they could.

On paper they fill some needs, hopefully these are more astute pickups and we can roll on to another shot at a flag.

How much does Jackson O'Brien look like ex reserve doggy Matt Foldesby.

Collier is one ugly bastard, fit right in at the beff!

Yeah, I was thinking that myself, but I also think he looks a little like Central skipper Paul Thomas as well.

Not sure, last I heard he had gone back to WA. No idea if it was for good or to get ready to move back to SA or what. The club haven't announced anything.
