who is backwell playing for?

[Rooster_cracker]

was told by a glenelg mate today that he's going to sign with north next week.

[am Bays]

Been mentioned elsewhere but I am totally confused on why the new club has to pay a transfer fee for a player that was sacked from his club last season

Agree. Ridiculous situation.

So you're happy to repay the transfer money for Randell Jolly and Patty Carpenter from the early 90s when told they weren't required at the Eagles???

[on the rails]

North are swimming in $$$ so if the coach wants the player then give him the $$$ and pay the transfer fee - it is all swings and round-abouts in any case, happens to all clubs.

Would you like it indexed for inflation and add GST too?

Ok, so we will wait for the SANFL to retrospectively change the rules for a near 20 year ago transaction.

Exactly, The Bays know North want him and will pay the $$$, isnt it just business?

Laird's comments are pretty interesting to say the least, seeing CD actually spoke with him

that's correct dutchy but central wouldn't be doing their job if they didn't talk to every available quality player....the more interesting comment was from mick godden seeing money for the transfer fee was their only problem in obtaining brets signature

You are right, I guess Brett ringing asking if the club was interested in his services does constitute 'CD speaking with him' doesn't it?

It's the same "speaking with" that Sturt did.

Reading Roy's comments, I can picture him holding his nose and making a flushing action.
If he plays at all he would be a certainty for the Advertiser Team of the Year.

James Sellar gave it a good nudge in September

[GWW]

As did Michael Wilson in the AFL finals series a few years ago too.

[stampy]

be as funny as you like, his shoulder that has been reconned is ******

[am Bays]

Mouse looked pretty fit yesterday flying up Chalk Hill Rd on the Amy Gillet rd 90 kms into the bastard....

[topsywaldron]

So I'm guessing you're in the 'Backwell let us down' camp rather than the opposing 'he's a deadset legend who's been shafted by the club' then.

How many hilarious arguments will there be amongst those two sets of Glenelg supporters when he plays against you for the first time?

And North of all the teams...
