Doc you would have to be happy with your clubs siginings.

Not unexpectedly, Chris Jansen has stated that one of his key reasons for choosing Norwood over Central was the location of Norwood Oval - not easy to attract people to Elizabeth nowadays unfortunately.

True, from the western suburbs its basically the same time to get to norwood as elizabeth oval.

Doc you would have to be happy with your clubs siginings.

In the main, yes. Not a fan of the FIFO model for Keegan Brooksby.

Has been heartening to have players approach the club (still chasing an AFL spot) as opposed to having to entice players for money only. Sure we have lost several of them, like Knoll, Skinner and Highmore, but we appear to be a club that players see as their best chance to play at AFL level.

The absolute no dickheads policy has also been a significant factor in retaining players as well. The significant investment in our juniors has proven to not only just produce good players, but better individuals as well.

Like Centrals, bordering the strongest country leagues makes it very hard to retain players who don't see reward for effort.

Many see South sliding this year. I remain quietly confident that we can win enough games (by a point) to play finals.

Get on the Train............................ again!
Do South Adelaide have a bus or 'train' direct from Flinders University to Noarlunga Oval during the season for all their recruits?

They all get a car.

You do realise that they've also lost about 10 A graders.

I reckon you have touched most of the reasons why South seem to be recruiting better than Centrals over the last few years. Also a high performing team is likely to help the young recruit develop faster (e.g. if you are a forward you will get better delivery and more forward entries than a team on the bottom of the ladder) and will probably play finals footy giving the player more exposure.

Surely distance from CBD isn't a factor given Elizabeth would be about the same distance as Noarlunga?

[Mr Fuller]

Will Trent Burgoyne be returning to the Eagles after being delisted by the Power?

I heard his brother on the radio a few weeks ago saying he wasn't sure where Trent would end up.

[Dutchy]

Noarlunga would be harder to get to these days now the Northern expressway is in place.

[TDJ44]

Noarlunga would be harder to get to these days now the Northern expressway is in place.

It's just an excuse we use because of our poor recruiting.

It's a huge factor!
I just had a phone call from Kris Grant, we need to find a house/houses for some recruits but they want to live near the beach, or no further north than Mawson Lakes.
