Southern Football League

I have heard another player walking out on M/Vale - Carpenter.... I can only see his playhq stats but seemed to played a fair bit of A grade. Also on the grapevine Shoes are struggling with numbers on the track with a few lads all moving on... On a positive hearing plenty at H-Valley, Cove, Ironbank and Christies that will be on the charge to catch the top 3 but I still feel a fair way to go for these teams to catch Porties, Flaggies and Reynella.

I've heard the outs outweigh the ins for the Shoes. Has Carpenter retired, he'd be mid 30's.

Valleys will challenge Porties, I think, for 3rd spot. They had a good team last year and have added quite a few handy types for the midfield. Cove will get off the bottom and look to push for 5th spot with Ironbank. Reckon there will be daylight between the top 8, and the Emus and the Sharks scrapping it out for the spoon. the league looks as competitive as it has for a long time.

yeah Vikings beat Porties last year and the ins that people have mentioned are SANFL players. Vikings and Cove to be the big improvers this year if preseason counts. Wineflies a mystery, many outs but no ins that I seen. Premiers will have new players but they haven't announced any.

[Happytowatchlocal]

rumor is that Nobes is playing in the SFL this season

Pretty sure he signed for 2 new cars and a boat at Willunga...

just down the road then

Shoes pick up a former Glenelg junior, Dusty Inglis, a big bodied mid. Should be very handy for them.

Hope he hangs around, 5th side in 2 seasons

Looks like he doesn't hang around if the season looks like it's going to be a bust before the transfer period ends

[Happytowatchlocal]

Dont see many playing historys like that.

[wenchbarwer]

Slightly concerning viewing on the socials, I've seen Christies, Aldinga & Morphett Vale advertising for senior players.

I'm hoping it's to shore up numbers so clubs can have a C grade team, but given most people would expect the Sharks and Emus to fight it out for the spoon, it's not a great look.

[UpThere]

Christies have had great numbers throughout preseason with new recruits not advertised yet.

[Happytowatchlocal]

Any rumors on the Wineflies? Huge retirements and no annoncements for ins. Strange for the premiers to not reload after beating the Falcons.

I think most clubs would still be pretty happy to have a list like Reynella.... Happy Valley apparently flying at the moment and Porties quite and likewise Christies Beach but did hear they got a ruckman who is pretty handy.

Christies did? They certainly needed one, ran pretty undersized last year.

Winies will still be up the top of the ladder if Borholm & Semple are their only outs, even if rumours around Sam Whitbread not playing are true. They have great depth and great juniors, they'll be fine.

[Happytowatchlocal]

Only things ive heard and its a bit old is Borholm, Semple Whitbread out the Souths players they got in towards the end of last year are back at Souths. Thats 6 out of their GF winning team. The reserves looked solid last year but not world beaters. Not saying the Wineflies will be terrible but not recruiting after winning the flag is unsual.

Any news from trial games?

Christies utilising the new lights vs Reynella in round 2 for a night game

That is not good news for the Emus...

Flaggies lost by about a goal to McLaren Vale, poor kicking for goal cost them. There was about 8 or so regular A graders out for FH, I would assume the same for McLaren?

Thats not good for the Emus,... Reynella played Henley and got done comfortably. Cove v Ramblers apparently a decent hit out with a goal in it. I did hear from last week H-Valley did pump Victor but no idea if Victor was missing a heap but got told Valley's ball movement was very good.
