What coin?

Not sure yet.
LDU, Sheezel, Zurhaar, Xerri, Larkey - all signed on long term. I expect Wardlaw to extend as well. The “mass exodus” predicted by some…
Only one bloke bailed…


1.3m per year I just heard. Decent.


Any war chest left?

Dylan Stephens looking like a bust. Was it 4 years @ $500K ?
Had a disappointing career so far for a top ten pick

At first I thought this was a joke.

Then I clicked on the link and realised it was true

Then i read the first listed ‘benefit of membership’ and concluded its a scam

It’s a great promotion, effectively -$21 for 3 games, and if a few renew next year then there’s a lasting benefit.. Plus a good way to inflate membership numbers like every other club seemingly does.

I was at Glenelg last week for a juniors game and saw a sign that SANFL ticketing was $22. Surely that's not right?

in that case, I'll more than likely be going to the local club, where it's free. what a joke - $22 is ridiculous.

We have still got plenty of issues, defence (across the whole ground) is the main one, we can get the ball, we can score, we can't defend.

Corr, Logue, McDonald don’t get a game anywhere else.
Captaincy issues too, I don’t rate Simpkin.

Its no secret our back 7 are our weakness, but our mids don't help them one bit either.

I was staggered that we went with the King/Corr match up, Chom plays his beast footy when he is the deepest defender and was the perfect match up for King imo

We've putted on this green before but I must say they have a very favourable draw, can see 5 genuine losses and another 4-5 50/50's.

I'd love to see them do well and I think Hardwick has been the missing piece.

Big call on Matty Rowell, he's an absolute tackling machine, my early money is on Caleb Serong.
