Not at all. Danny Thomasson was a quality HBF/Wingman player with good speed and good skills.
Did he leave because he was up and down from the As to Bs and got sick of that and Pongy approached him??
Would be great to have Danno back around the club!

Granted 2 are the same person.
What reasons are they allowed to give to 'refuse' clearances.
They'd have to be 'good' reasons and not just 'spiteful' I'd imagine.
And how does the player 'stand' ... does this mean that they cannot play for anyone until cleared??
That they have to keep 're-applying' to be cleared??
Sorry 500 questions, just interested

My understanding is a players clearance can only be refused if the player is in a contract period, in country football it's more than likely not worth the paper it's written on or the most common reason a player is not financial (has not payed subs from previous years)
Once refused by a club twice it goes to a tribunal, clubs have a certain time period to respond to a clearance also.

Willunga held onto Scott Mcmahon as long as possible!!!! But the powers that be forced us to clear him!
The strange thing is that Cox requested a clearance to Para Hills on 20/1 and then to Kersbrook on 24/1 and both were refused on the 28th!!! Was this to get the 2 refusals out of the way early??

Encounter Bay did pay a sum of money to Seaton in 08.
I guess when its a round 7 move in 08, and the club is just pleased to have you onboard, subs were not even mentioned.
But if you leave that club it then comes back to bite you.... ( pay subs people)
Having said that, refusing a clearance hardly makes that player consider returning..
Tricky one, time will tell.

Especially those leaving Willunga to chase an 'easier' game. Surely Hoppo will have to register under his new surname when his family dis-owns him.

The main concerns came from the bays who are whinging like bitches because they cant replenish their player stocks. They voted in the point system so put up with it. Maybe the culture needs to be changed down there. Could having one of the biggest pests in GSFL history as a coach have something to do with players staying away? As for Cox, what did Bays expect? 847 clubs in 3 years and now people are suprised he is going. Not a bloke you would want anyway. Most 'normal' people realise that local clubs are not piggy banks and would volunteer to pay subs which has always been a standard thing.
