They were competitive late in the season with a couple of wins. Another year into their young locals & the 3-4 big recruits they're getting should see them up there.
Apart from Hahndorf it was actually a close season.
Onkas will make up ground quickly with their reported in's.
It's also rumoured a couple of the big names from Hahndorf are fielding offers so this could bring them slightly back to the pack if true. If we lose the best mid and FF in the comp as rumoured, then it’s game on 2020.
I have heard this as well. Matsen is as good as gone to Mypolonga in the RMFL and Hourigan is headed across the freeway to Nairne with his younger brother.
Honestly though, I dont know that it will matter much if they do lose two or three. From what I have been told, a number of players playing in Victoria were going to make a come back this year, but were told not to bother as there were no spots for them. Hate to say it, Hahndorf will be a powerhouse for some time to come. Cant rely on them slipping for sides to beat them, clubs will have to cash and compete with them toe to toe.
