INS & OUTS 2026

[beef]

Sturt defender Zac Becker will take up training with North Melbourne from Monday as he bids for an SSP list spot.

22-year old came second in Sturt’s B&F in last year’s premiership winning season.

191cm who can play on talls and smalls and has a booming boot.



Another blow for the league

Is he not meant to try out? It's a feeder comp and young blokes are chasing their dreams, how dare they

Totally missing the point. Nobody suggested he shouldnt try out.

As mentioned 100 times in this thread its the timing of the try out as Sturt have no chance to replace the player.

Please Try and keep up!!!

100% - with the Eagles getting raided and now Sturt I think it's about time that the SANFL grow a pair and approach the AFL. At the very least they could hopefully get the AFL to agree to better compensation for the clubs but also seek to implement their own policies which might in some way assist the club. Sturt are lucky that they can probably absorb Becker's loss (if he goes) but a team with a poorer list get smashed with the season start not too far away.

Who are the Crows getting to replace the injured Keane?

Whilst i understand your point, you are ok that Central announce 6 new players over this week? Not much difference as their clubs will find it hard to find recruitss also.

It’s how it is.

[southernbulldog]

Wondering whether the 2 lads allegedly from Sandringham are still coming

So you believe these players only started training with centrals this week do u ?

Are u really sure you understand the point being made

[CENTURION]

Someone from their reserves side, that's why you have one.

[DOC]

Flynn Perez (Sturt) training with Hawthorn for a list spot. I think they have 2 spots available

Looks like he will get signed by Hawthorn.

[tnt]

AFL clubs now have until March 2 to sign SSP players ( just been extended from 20th Feb).

Because 6 months isn't enough time to sort out their list and they need another two weeks.

[pmackk]

Just you wait soon enough AFL clubs will be able to pick players whenever they like throughout the year.

[Bluedemon]

AFL aren't too bothered about the local leagues, they are happy to even see some country clubs fold, AFL only care for the $$

Agreed. Its more the people that receive a good wage to run the comp that frustrates the fans IMHO!!!

They just roll over and have now resorted to making up possible threats to justify it.

ie afl clubs possible move to vfl or the change of recruiting rules for the draft in sa.

Yeah, it is, no different to the SANFL clubs sniffing around local teams during the season, trying to entice players out to cover injuries etc.

[sib]

Now that Soldo is out Port better not come sniffing out Harry Boyd like Crows did with McAndrew last year.

Harry won’t be going to Port.
Soldo probably wasn’t going to get a game barring Injuries so zero chance Harry goes to Port just to play SANFL

It’s totally different
1) sanfl don’t have the right to deny the transfer of an afl listed player like a local team does
2) players don’t get a pay increase to join sanfl clubs over local clubs like they do when joining afl clubs. We’ve seen delisted afl players Murphy,McHenry,burgess,smith etc…all join ammo clubs after afl careers due to more money and less commitment
3) if a local player joins a sanfl club and isnt selected and or not liking the sanfl environment they can go back to junior club before June 30 cut off. Which we see every year


Please stop pretending you understand the SANFL clubs plight. It’s very condescending.
