I'm more curious about this being a particular "Port" phenomena.
It seems the number of blokes who have done time at Rosewater/Port Districts/Portland/North Haven far exceeds the number of blokes who have done time at Unley/Mitcham/Scotch, or Mitchell Park/Colonel Light Gardens/Kenilworth, or PNU/Walkerville/Hectorville.
Anyone care to theorise why?
Is it really a Port phenomena? Does it not happen in other areas? Flinders Park/Woody South/Henley/Lockleys or TTG/Hope Valley/Golden Grove/ Modbury or Salisbury/Salisbury West/Salisbury North/Brahma Lodge or Eastern Park/Elizabeth/Central United/Smithfield

Agree with a lot of the stuff you bought up, but lets face it, coaches will spruik about training etc, but its happened for years now and always will continue to happen unless your club is in an extraordinary position to be able to leave top calibre players out due to lack of training.. Which generally wont be the case in the lower divisions..
I see your point about non sustainable environments with players chasing the coin with no loyalty, but find it odd that you throw Rosewater in that category. Yes, the player payments are probably excessive for div 5, but what sets them apart from the other 4 clubs you mentioned is that they have worked hard to build up the junior sides to have 5 i believe now, if not 6, where the other 4 clubs dont have juniors, so will rely on 'floaters' to stick around, and when they dont, they go under.. 17 players out of the side from 2013 prelim, how many of them have left to go to other clubs? I think you'll find very few if any have moved on to another club, simply have moved down the grades or retired from the game..

We have juniors mate. Only 3 sides (I think) and there is a lot of hard work that does goes in to them.

it annoys the hell out of me that the "actual" best players aren't named on fox sporting pulse or in the paper. Makes it hard for supporters interstate or from another league to follow who is actually playing well. If it is to bluff opposition coaches then its a joke. Opposition coaches would have done their homework and would know who the consistently good players are before they are put in the paper. If they don't, hang up the clipboard coaches.

I think part of the reason is (when I coached our Agrade) we get asked straight after the game when really well with me any way I don't pick them until I have sat down with the magnet board and my assistant and go through it then. Most names are given off the cuff without much thought. IMO

From Rosewater mate, throw a blanket over Hugh Johnson-Schroeder, Daniel Reardon and Scott Jacobsen (not to get confused with his brother Shaun) and daylight to the rest.. If Matt Kooyman could get his off field issues right he could be anything as well

Going by the names in the paper not to many people would know who the best players are at any club. Woody South's Best would be: Sumner, the Economou family and Clark.

That is only the result of the deadline to enter the information by 6pm or what ever it is.

Are you going to ask Shaun or Scott "the sauce" Jacobsen?
