River Murray Football League talk

[Monopoly Man]

If they maintain their current recruits they will each minus -1 point each. Think they currently have 7 or 8 recruits. So should gain 7 or 8 points to fit Clayton and Sheedy in. If they are struggling for points they may just have to play a junior or two. IMO, Healthy for the competition bringing a couple Magary Medalists into the comp and taking it up to the MB sides. The RMFL has always been proactive in attracting high profile players such as McLeod in an effort to build it into the strongest league in SA.

Pretty sure Clayton has been on Manning list and will be hardly any points

clayton will be four points regardless of him being on our list, he has to get cleared from port will be 4 points

How many points is Hally now? Must be 0 been around a few years now.

Still worth 1 point, but I know there was a discussion at headquarters in making him 0 points due to his exemplary service to the RMFL with such things as the inter league assistant coach this year amongst other things etc...... Hally says jump and Dallwood says how hight, so shouldnt be a problem.

Can confirm Todd Boughen has signed at Mannum. Always been a handy player coming off half back with very tidy disposal and will be a valuable inclusion for the Roos.

good news if true, will certainly be a great inclusion for us

Big Jim Lyon from jervois off to the kntfl.

Big Jim Lyon from jervois off to the kntfl.

Kingston??

[From The Outer]

Lyon is just a plodder. Will have minimal impact in that league.

[grasshopper22]

Either way it's a loss for jervois as he's a 0 pointer and to replace him it will take points, he's a good honest footballer always as dip and has been loyal to jervois over the yrs

[The Duke]

Grasshopper, the APFL thread suggests The "Parndana Pie Eater" could be on the move from the Bears? Any chance.

He will be at the bears in 2013 duke

Heard today that three players from Ironbank (HFL) are all going to the RMFL next year they are Gareth Williams, Scott Wendelborn and Chris Clements not sure of the club anyone else heard anything, three top players.

[Caramels]

I don't think there is any substance to this, it sure is silly season!
Any news from any other clubs on the recruiting front?

From what ive heard the bears have local lad Ben Gibbs back from Kingston,

Benbow back to Meningie from SAAFL club Gaza

I think it's a credit to the club, these lads wanting to return after a yr away, 0 points also

If it's a credit to the club, why did he leave in the first place? Surely Meningie would pay him more than Gaza so you can't use money as an excuse. Maybe he didn't like something at Gaza!

To have a crack at div 1 I would imagine, he'd spent many yrs at the club before he left, and u say it's not a credit to the club? I'm sure there are plenty of other clubs out there that would like his services, but he wanted to come back to the bears,. Which can only be a good thing.

I believe these bots have been a shopping spree. They contacted Mannum by all reports. Though the Roos are well out of points.

yep they are shopping themselves around the RMFL, supposedly not happy with the new coach at Ironbank, no room for them at Mannum though seem like handy players though

[From The Outer]

Did the same at Imperials even though we only have three points. Settled on Myponga because they could afford the very steep financial package these three were demanding. The money clubs are prepared to pay for good solid footballers is unbelievable. Some may argue that Wendleborn is a State country player but he will find it really tough on the small often waterlogged Myponga oval.

What are the Barras brothers - Trent and Josh like?

think josh has missed the last two seasons with knee injurys, but when he was playing, very handy player, found himself in ramblers best most weeks

That explains, asked a few blokes at the club today and they hadn't heard of them.
Out of curiosity Bazza, you said they contacted the roos, what was the price on their heads?
