It isn't worth another club using 3 points up to get him nowadays. He was very good 3 or 4 years ago, not now. Is way too big now, always had been big but is ridiculous now to consider him.

Craig Young from Torrens Valley back to Crystal Brook in 2012. According to one of LHPerry's fuel truck drivers unloding down at Port Wakefield

Pretty sure he's signed with Hamley Bridge if you read your local papers SP!!!

Doesn't Young work for Gary? If so he won't be going anywhere unless he's had a change in employment.

From the Plains Producer:

“BRING the Bombers back.”
That is the season defining statement from newly appointed Hamley Bridge Football Club A grade coach, Ash ‘Red’ Barnett.
While only a month has passed since the end of the 2011 season, no other sentence will hold more weight for the Hamley Bridge lads in 2012 than those words.
“Our big push is we want to get players who have played footy at Hamley Bridge and moved to other clubs in nearby leagues, back to the club,” Barnett said.
“We want all the Bombers out there, back, playing for us.
“There are some good kids out there, playing for other clubs and they’ve left for a reason, so hopefully we can a reason to come back.”
Barnett, who used to own the Hamley Bridge Hotel, played for the Bombers in the 2004 premiership and also 2005, when they lost the grand final.
Hamley Bridge will become the fifth club he has coached, having previously led Goolwa, Kingston, Tantanoola and Callington, while he also held assistant coaching roles in country Victoria and New South Wales.
He said the community drew him back to the club.
“They’re a great bunch of people,” Barnett said.
“The old cliché of a good family club is a bit short but it is actually true.
“The social atmosphere and junior structure, and they’re really good people around the club, so I think it’s about time we had a bit more success again.”
Based in Gawler, Barnett said he would start with list management.
“We’ll have a look over the next few months at what sort of players we need and we’ll go after them,” he said.
“We’ll make the tough calls in the next couple of months with who stays and who goes.”
While Dylan Lockwood and Shane Catterall are confirmed outs for the Bombers, the club has already signed former player, Craig Young, a Plains Producer medallist from 2005.
Young has previously been playing at Hills Central club, Torrens Valley, competing in three or four grand finals.
He also played in Hamley’s flag in 2004.
Barnett said Young has an impeccable sense of timing when he arrives at a new club.
“Craig coming back is a big bonus,” he said.
“Hopefully this is Hamley’s right place, right time.”
As for the player-led revolt leading to the sacking of the previously reappointed Rian Nelson, Barnett was confident the club has moved on.
“The decision was made, the club has run with it and pushed the process through to where we’re at now,” he said.
“The main problem would have been communication by the sound of it, which can be the backbone of a lot of problems in business and sport.”
Barnett’s response is relatively simple.
“The open door policy is the best thing,” he said.
“We’re going to have good support structures off of the field as well.
“It’s a new page though, it’s a new chapter, so we just move on from that.”
It’s been a long time between drinks for the Bombers in recent seasons.
“There are people involved there that want some success,” Barnett said.
“They’re sick of hearing excuses and stories, they want to actually get on with the job.
“There’s some great people out there and it’s a great place to be but the main reason we’re there is to play football.”
The new coach has embraced the challenge of guiding the club to a top four spot in 2012.
“You coach to be successful but the club has probably only won a handful of games in the last few years, that’s just not acceptable,” Barnett said.
“We want to be moving up the ladder and we’re going to have a crack at it early on.
“We’re not going to lay down, we’re going to play a brand of football that gets us up and around finals straight away.”

So Young concreted at Hamley Bombers - where does that leave Dogga?

Rumour has it, Dogga's changed his mobile number in the off-season.
IMO, they should send him to auction.

Do you mean Hayden Warren?- Doubt he would leave unless the posse went too! Very doubtful on the three Centrals boys to leave also. Not sure if he meets the "seriously good SGL forward" criteria but my guess is Todd Kernahan is the player you are alluding to Sky Pilot.

Lee Schmit and Brodie Cox are players that fit this category. May as well put in Darren Shillabeer, Ray Stapleton, Ashley Grantham, Shannon Page, Jarred Reid, Matthew MCGuinness, Steve Wildman, Justin Duffy, John MCKenna and you will have all bases covered. If you put enough names forward you will eventually get one right.

Text Just in Ray Hayes is to be appointed as player coach at West Augusta 2012. Dave Grainger and Russel Ebert are coming with him in the package deal worth $2000 a game. Hang on that ones from 1980's recycled! Sorry
