Riverland Football Chatter

[The Slug]

As I said, got to love the silly season.You seem to know more than me DW.

Woolford is the cousin of a senior North player.
Spent some time with North Adelaide.
Will be in the Riverland over summer.
Panthers are hoping to convince him to play. Whether it's likely or not...

[Dogwatcher]

But yes, I do love the silly season.

[the reflex]

silly is ok, absolute made up crapola is another thing. And there is a bit on this page.

[Dogwatcher]

Enlighten us Reflex....

[the reflex]

not falling for that old chesnut.... but in the current economic climate what club up here, if they were being responsible, would fork out $900 clams a game to anyone other than a proven SANFL league player??? Even then hard to justify.

[Dogwatcher]

But yes, I do wonder how clubs that might in the past have considered spending a bit of money will be situated this season.

I also understand Nathan Tape has undergone an ankle reconstruction

Heard from a member of the Renmark board that Ex is to coach Waikerie.

I think Barmera has spoken to the Tanunda boys, but they are pretty happy where they are. I don't think $900 a game is any where near what anyone would pay around here (at the moment), perhaps excluding Waikerie.

I find that hard to believe as he took 5 wickets playing cricket for Waikerie/Ramco B grade on the weekend.

[Dogwatcher]

On crutches?

ankle reco isnt that big of a deal. 8 ish weeks recovery. crutches are only 2-3 days. looking into it now on personal experience.

I went on the footy trip two days after a knee reconstruction. That was no big deal either, until I got home and sobered up and realised how much I had ****** my leg up. I probably should have taken my crutches with me.

Kennedy was best on ground in the barrossa grand final and was leading goal kicker,so he can play.Did hear the same rumor, apparently $900 a game and Greenwood`s name was used too.Kennedy has also been linked with a SANFL club,so I`d say it`s all bullshit.Got to love the silly season though.

ive heard its alot more than the 900 being thrown around in here. i also hear its not the only big $ recruit bmfc will be signing in 09.

You would have thought they'd learnt their lesson after the Lester Ross era of ridiculous spending for no cigar. They have some very good kids playing at that club and that is who they should be focusing on. A one year quick fix on high paid players is not going to fix a long term problem. To those that think it hasn't been a long term problem, just look at the fact that they have not won a flag for a very long time. Longer than any other RFL club as a matter of fact.
