Not sure on exact numbers but the Gowans played a heap of Grand Finals before coming to Centrals. Am sure they played in a senior grand final every year of their playing life except 2012

Any significant player or coach movements for next season?

Mallala: Scott Hahn - retired

United: Cam Faulkner - returning to Kadina

Hamley: Herberle appointed A grade coach.



I'm sure there must be others.

Local talent coming up to watch out for:
Seccafien & Gameau
Appleby
Coombe
Wedding
Arbon

No pressure on these young lads, but I reckon there are two SANFL and one AFL player in this lot. :D

Lets be honest those good enough at 28 years old have probably already represented the league in previous years anyway.

Can definately agree with the age class, I think that's only fair.


Up for discussion tonight - someone must be reading this stuff. Onya SA Footy :D

This is the worst part about what is now the meat market of country footy! Some clubs were recruiting while they/others were still in finals campaigns!
The problem is, witht he points system in place, the demand for good players (with low points) is rdiculous, and if your club isn't out there trying to recruit you will be left behind.

Im not a big fan of it, but theres nothing you can do about it, and its only going to get worse unfortunately!

Yeah, HBFC took it to the pre-AGM, along with a motion to allow 21 players in the reserves teams during the regular season, if your club has them.
Mallala also floated the possibility of a twilight ANZAC Day match against United, Balaklava another side looking to do something similar with HWE.
Full report in tomorrow's edition but I'll have to expand on the Mallala ANZAC idea for next week. Interesting concept.

It'll be voted on by the clubs at the AGM on the 11th as a by-law change . Majority rules.
