Why don't you go through the ins and outs and list what you think they are worth?
Cachia is probably the only one who I'm not sure on and reckon he would be on a bit but Fuller was offered good money by 2 VFL sides but chose to come home, Kirwan and Wilson also returning for a fraction they could get elsewhere and in Wilson and Fullers case they would be aiming to get back on a AFL list and believe they can play their best footy back home. Lost a fair bit of quality in the offseason and for some of the players coming in money isn't the only factor. LJ is one who could earn a fair bit more elsewhere but due to several other factors have decided he wants to play at Norwood. Obviously this all depends on an agreement being reached over the transfer


Cut the bullshit, You will rort the cap again and probably win another flag. Just wish my club would do the same thing.

We will be under the cap but obviously there are plenty of ways around it with employment etc. Every club has being using third parties and sponsors "donations" for years. North are a very rich club with well to do members and sponsors I'm sure they can find ways to attract new players [emoji6]

Salary cap is irrelevant when it does not apply to two clubs. Scrap it.

Could a player be tempted into a return back to his original SANFL club?

Some say the deal can't be done, but I've heard a whisper that Lee Robson might come back to Torrens. You heard it first here.

A player, who has previously played with a certain club but left for more opportunities, is looking at the possibility of moving back to his original club, for more opportunities, ahead of season 2016...

I gathered that was the case. Was just winding you up mate. Seems to be a classic case of the grass isn't always greener..

Yes, I know and I don't mind ;)

Yes, exactly. This player would be a good get for his original club, should it eventuate, and he would certainly get more opportunities...

The Norwood Football Club is excited to announce today that we have agreed to terms with the North Adelaide Football Club for the transfer of Lewis Johnston.
Lewis is a high level key position forward who offers flexibility to our football club, with the knowledge he is more than capable of moving into our midfield or down back which may become important with the restrictions on rotations in 2016.
Johnston, originally from Port Pirie in country South Australia, was drafted to the Sydney Swans with pick 12 in the 2008 National draft after being named in the U18 All Australian team in the same year.
Lewis spent both the 2013 and 2014 seasons on the Adelaide Crows Senior list playing 8 matches, before returning to North Adelaide.
2015 was a frustrating year for Lewis, breaking his ankle in Round 2 against Port Adelaide at Alberton and not returning for the remainder of the season.
One of the best kicks of a football in the SANFL competition, Lewis is working for KeyInvest Lending Services situated next to Coopers Stadium on the Parade, and this proximity will assist Lewis in his preparation for season 2016.
At 24, Johnston along with former North teammate Luke Mitchell, will add much needed class and forward presence after the departure of Michael Newton and Liam Davis.
We welcome Lewis to the Norwood Football Club and wish all our supporters, members and Norwood family, a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

Andrew Ainger asked if he could come back but we said no. Pity. There are no night games for us next year.

Got to laugh at the Norwood press release re mentioning Luke Mitchell - he was all class for 1 game over 2 seasons. His "alleged" off field "shit" surely would have concerned Norwoods recruiters if they had done any due diligence considering anyone close to the SANFL knew exactly what he and the other key departures at Prospect got up to. However a big portion of the blame for alleged off field stuff, poor rehab etc. etc. Is the clubs fault as much as the players given it occurred over two seasons!
