What's happening around BLG,

Let's get some discussion going?

Pre-seasons?
Recruiting?
Coaching?

Fire away!

How's Barossa District's going to back-up this year?
Do they lose many players?
How does the import rule effect them?

Dogwatcher,

What exactly is the import rule?

I'm not sure mate.
It's based on population and also positions on the ladder.
Obviously the higher you finish the less you have.
So for a club like BD which has relied heavily on imports in the past, a premiership could mean they lose an import or two....

Thanks for that,

I have heard various rumours about The Donnybrooks and South picking up ex SANFL and ressie players,

Simon Johnson the wooden spooner from GGFC is taking up the a grade at angaston.......

Big call from Angaston.

Willaston are always spending money. Hasn't paid off for a while though has it???

Where's Craig Cotter playing these days?

Cotter was at Willaston in '06. Lee Coghill, ex-Pooraka captain will be out there in '07 as well.

Heard South had picked up a couple of decent key position players from the Yorke Peninsula but wouldn't know who or from what clubs.

I thought Cotter was doing triathlon now? A big loss for the donnies,

A very big call from angaston, Jonno had done better at birdwood though....Amatuers not his game!

willaston lost cotter but have kept the baker boys and got back the two mclean boys chris and mick and may get brooks if he doesnt make it at sturt. they will be the team to watch. kapunda picked up ricky olaughlin and will be around the mark also. barossa lost a couple of players going back to town and picked up a couple of younger ones.freeling lost cornialius and byrlee.

predicted table 1 willaston
2 kapunda
3 freeling
4 barossa
5 gawler south
6 nuriootpa
7 tanunda
8 gawler central
9 angaston

Where's Byerlee gone now?

Cant beleive that table has turned upside down since 2002 whwn i was at Freeling. Except Freeling were rock bottom.

am led to believ byerlee is interstate and freeling have lost stacey aswell

craig cotter has gone to rostrevor old schols.

from what i have heard

few ex centrals players there

I wonder if Trinity OS tried to get him there? Probly too quality for Div 7.
Who are the Doggies boys at Rossies?

who are the Baker's playing at Willaston?

Brenton Daniel is there again this year, and I think he and Cotter are good mates...

I heard Newberry from west and south(I think) has signed with tanunda for this year.

Retired. Has been for a few years now, although has helped out with bits & pieces around club over the years. Style of play took its toll.

On Nuri, Nat Salter has left & is coaching at BSR in Mid Murray (where he comes from) has taken a couple with him by all accounts - wont post names until its official though (2 that I know of, another 1 or two possibles)
