SA Footy

Trying to settle an arguement. Wonder if it has ever been discussed or could even be tracked. But is there any records that keep track of which club has recruited the most players from other SANFL clubs. For example my mate always gives me a hard time about how many players the Bays have taken from South over the years.

We did discuss the particular pair of clubs that have "traded" players; but not this. I have only got a list of players and the clubs they played for, and not necessarily in the order they played for. So that unfortunately is a problem to find out that.

Heres one (two) for you Spelly

- Who has played the most games for a club that they have been traded to?
- Who has played the most games before being traded?

here is a couple that might qualify for your second point Brod

Rick Davies had played 317 games for Sturt before moving to South Adelaide
Graham Cornes had played 312 games for Glenelg before also moving across to South Adelaide

as for the first point
John Paynter played 246 games for Sturt after leaving Glenelg
Robert Enright played 225 games for West Torrens after leaving Port
Chris Threadgold played 223 games for Sturt after leaving North
Kim Klomp played 210 games for North after leaving Sturt
Peter Meuret played 206 games for West after leaving Woodville
Bruce Winter played 178 games for Norwood after leaving Sturt

Just to point out that Davies was actually sacked by Sturt before he went to South.

Milan Faletic from West torrens to Port Adelaide I wonder how many games he played for each?

I've got Faletic as 151 games and 133 goals for Torrens and 78 games and 110 goals for Port.
