retirements and upcoming signings

[DOC]

Abe Davis finally listed as an out for Sturt.

[DOC]

Zac Milbank tweeted today that Norwood will be signing 3 promising players from opposition clubs.

Actually from 2 opposition clubs.

Luke Bogle from South is one, 3 weeks ago I would have said Partington and Hosie the other two.

I wouldn't consider Partington and Hosie as "promising" players.

Staying at the Bay anyway.

Neither would I. Should have worded it more betterer.

I know Partington has signed 3 weeks ago hence my comment. Thought Hosie had not though.

Sturt appeared to have improved their recruiting results, after a few quiet campaigns since 2016. Of course, recruiting will need to be judged in the rear view mirror, but on paper at least this off season has been a better one. Gives them a much better shot at genuinely contending again, not stuck mid table

We're late to the party but we're adding some talent. How that plays out is anyone's guess as we speak.

So what’s going on with bays coach ??

Is he sacked

[StrayDog]

I can confirm that Jamie Coff has returned to the CDFC.

Was he Far?

[azza1719]

Bit surprised by Coff returning to Centrals. Attitude and faking injuries to avoid training has been an issue in the past, hopefully all that stuff is behind him and he has a good crack at it this time around

I'm surprised they even bothered bringing him back, he's miles off it

[MatteeG]

Some really good ins for the Eags.

DBR is a solid unit.

[southernbulldog]
