also andy from kilburn you have gone a bit quiet on here any handy recruits or lose of any key players.
I believe Andy's boys have lost their state ruckman 2 greenacres.
How many others have followed Danny Ryan up the hill from the chicks?
Said pretty much all I had to say earlier. It might be dispersed through this, the div 5 and Barossa threads.
Wrighty is the state ruckman you are talking about and he has gone to Greenacres with about a dozen blokes. This is pretty old news. I'm dissapointed, but understand why they have gone. Most are good players who don't deserve the stigma attached to being part of our side last year. They have played in successful sides before that. Apparently Nth. Adel's plan is to turn Greenacres into a kind of thirds like Pt Districts.
Polkinghorne, Brodhurst and a couple others from Barossa have come onboard along with a heap I haven't met. I don't think anyone doubts Ocker's ability to recruit so I'm confident we'll do well. However, I will feel better after a couple of wins, was a lean year just gone.
