Glenelg has thrown a lifeline to former North Adelaide captain Clint Alleway, signing the strong-marking forward to a one-year contract.

Alleway, who spent last year travelling overseas, is keen to revive the SANFL career he began with the Roosters in 2006.

The 32-year-old has returned to Adelaide in good shape for pre-season training and will provide plenty of experience for the Bays after tallying 129 matches and 209 goals since transferring from VFL club Box Hill.

The veteran spearhead, who measures in at 191cm and 100kg, will also soak up one of the opposition’s best defenders which will free up the likes of new signing Josh Scott and fellow Tiger
forwards James Hinge, Ethan Gill and James Lawton.

A two-time State representative for the SANFL, Alleway joins fellow recruits Sam Lonergan (Essendon/Richmond), Aaron Joseph (Carlton), Pat McCarthy (Carlton), and Nathan Stark (Melbourne) in what will be a new-look Bays outfit next season.

BEN BACK FOR THE BLOODS

By ZAC MILBANK | Twitter @zacmilbank

West Adelaide has lured Ben Fisher back to City Mazda Stadium after the consistent defender spent last year playing in country Victoria.

Fisher, 28, will add considerable experience to the Bloods’ backline having chalked up 101 league matches before appearing for Walpeup Underbool in 2013.

‘’It is great having Ben back to help bolster our defence,’’ West football services manager Andrew Marks said of Fisher, 182cm and 75kg.

‘’His tackling and aggression around the ball will certainly be appreciated in season 2014. Ben is training really well and hasn’t missed a beat.’’

Former Glenelg ruckman Michael Bennett has also decided to have another crack at SANFL level after spending the past few years playing at country level.

‘’Michael certainly adds depth to our rucks and will certainly appreciate having Mark Mickan’s guidance as coach,’’ Marks said.

Magarey Medallist James Ezard, who has been burning up the track with some impressive time trials, has also extended his contract with the Bloods.

‘’After such an injury plagued season in 2013, Jimmy is looking for a change of fortune and is hopeful of producing another great year for the Bloods,’’ Marks said.

These additions come on the back of West securing former Brisbane Lion Richard Newell and former Central District pair Andrew Hayes and Justin Hardy before Christmas.

I also wanted to update everyone on how I see the pre-season so far, and how we are placed for the 2014 season.
In the past we have tried not to include the AFL players in our planning for the upcoming seasons, as we never know if we were going to have them or not. However, having a Lewis Johnston, Nathan Blee or Daniel Stewart come back each week has always been much appreciated. I guess they are the main three AFL players we will miss from 2013, as other AFL players such as Andrew Moore and our own Matthew Wright have been regular AFL players with their clubs over recent years, hence we haven’t seen much of them here at Prospect. In addition, regulars from our League team last year who will not be with us in 2014 for a variety of reasons include Jake Keller, Kriston Thompson, Nathan Gordon, Tom Langford and Tim Delvins.
I am very pleased to say that the new players coming into our group have been most impressive and I am very excited about the season ahead. Rhys O’Keefe is a strong bodied midfielder who will add enormous grunt and talent to our midfield and half back line. He is a brute who can kick the ball 60metres, tackle hard and big enough to also play on key position players. Jesse O’Brien is a tallish midfielder/forward (186cm) who has terrific pace and very good lateral movement from tight situations. He is an excellent kick and will be a difficult match up when on a wing or across half forward. Luke Mitchell is a big forward who can get on a quick lead, or out body his opponent. He gives us the opportunity to have him up the ground as he is fit and has a great work rate, or play deeper where he can use his body and smarts closer to goals. Alan Obst has been most impressive. Alan is as fit as he’s ever been, his body is sound and his work rate across half forward will be really important. For a forward, Alan defends strongly, tackles hard and will ensure our smaller players walk a little taller as he has a strong presence. We are just starting to see Alex Barns, Tom Sandercock and Corey Grove emerge during the summer too. All are over 196cms, and very athletic. All three have been in rehab for much of the pre-season, and are now joining the main group training and look very exciting. Tom is an outstanding athlete, his vertical jump is unbelievable and his running capability for a big player is awesome. Corey is a key forward, and he will be important in our key position strength also. Alex is a 198cm forward/ruckman who is highly rated by the coaches, so we can’t wait for him to come through the summer ready to go. All three will play important roles for the Roosters in 2014 and beyond.
Other players we have brought into the group who have impressed include Ryan Blundell, Addison Burns, Darren Shillabeer, Heath Caldwell, Matthew Willson. Ken McGregor invited Ryan to the Magpies last season from Ainslie after Ken played with him the previous season in Canberra. He is a midfielder who is tough and fit and we all look forward to watching his development through the season. Darren is a former junior Rooster who is returning after a few very strong seasons in the country. He has been outstanding on the track so far as a key position forward, and don’t be surprised if he bobs up early in the season in the main game. Addison joins us from Division One side Goodwood Saints, and as an ex basketballer has shown outstanding athleticism.
One of the real pleasing things for me is the visible development and improvement of our younger players. There is no doubt you will see the likes of Campbell Combe, Michael McMahon, Stephen Tahana, Liam Jacka and Oleg Markov making their mark during the season at some stage.
Of our current players, it is great to see players like Todd Miles, George Thring, Cohen Thiele, James Craig, Matty Campbell, Leigh Ryswyk, Will Dalwood, Jay Shannon, Chad O’Sullivan, Joe Anderson and Nick Amato and others all having solid preseasons.

PORT ADELAIDE has finalised its 2014 SANFL playing group with the addition of Angus Bruggemann, Sam Gordon, Zac Hawkins and Nathan Krakouer to the Magpies senior list.

Given his trial form, I'm a little surprised that Raikiwasa Jnr wasn't given a go.
