Have added Walton to the Flaggy list. Is there any missed? I'm hearing Dakota Sterzl is quitting South and is heading to the Vikings. I'm also hearing another couple of big names are on their way out of Noarlunga as well. Another rumour is Flaggy grabbing a 3rd McCormick.


Will not be at South. Not entirely his decision.

I dont believe Mundy and McIvor are outs for the saints. Also might have gotten Daniel Lee back from Willunga which would do wonders for experience in the forward line.

Brutal list of outs for the Shoes...

Agreed on the recruiting though, matches between the top 4 teams will be as good as any getting around

With the outs for 2 clubs, I can see this turning into a 8 team comp in 2026. I hope I am wrong but my money is on the SFL board planning a crisis meeting very soon.

Ironbank's biggest problem is their lack of junior teams, if you can't fill a full program on Saturday, what are you bringing to the league? They seem naturally suited to the Hills Country division, they're miles off being competitive in the SFL, and the gap to the top teams has got way bigger this off season.

Noarlunga are just in a whole world of hurt, especially if news of the new coach calling it quits before a ball is kicked in anger. Would they entertain a merger? They've been going hard on socials about club culture and history, but is it a case of too little, too late?

Shows what happens when you take your eye off the ball with juniors, in a lot of respects juniors is the heartbeat of a footy club.

Im sure in quite a few clubs they hardly get a mention in committee meetings, its all about senior success.
