You can knock them but Hargaraves has come and stayed, Leys came and stayed, Sherwood has come and stayed. South always seem to go for the great players Cubido, Tuckey, King but not what you would call the best characters.
either that or South are good at p!sing off players so they don't stay
Central have done the same with their recruitng lately. No flash (in the pan) players but blokes who have stayed and become "club" players. Players like Hay, Hopwood, Bello, Scoullar and the Gowans' have given great service to the club.
