Our recruits play for the atmosphere, facilities and mateship - with a few incentives thrown in.
Lucky Jesse Aish is an Echunga junior, lindsay is a friend of the coach and Carey has his best mate who already played at Echunga.
Pretty well the rest of the team are Hills dwellers and closely associated to the town.
We are actually quite moderate when it comes to "looking after" players - particularly compared to other Central clubs.

I would think we are more like half of that.
Comparing to Uraidla, Lobey, Mt Barker, Ironbank - and now TV to name a few.
As I mentioned before we are quite lucky that the players who we do look after are not mercenaries and are playing for the right reasons.
if we hadn't gone into Central we would have lost quite a few to Central clubs for the level of footy played and they were offering a lot more money than us.
The guys have a point to prove that we are competitive with a relatively unchanged side from Country.
They were also sick of flogging sides by 100 points and playing some weeks against teams a long way away.

Legs Man wrote:WOW Cracka - that is really left field - but like seeing different concepts.
Bridgey should be South though and Mount Barker North.
Littlehampton should be North also and Hahndorf South.
Dont know whether any of us want to play Strath or The Creek - but good to see you have outed Blackwood.

Let's not kid ourselves fellas, no one has a clue what other clubs are paying their players so why float rumours that are completely off the mark?

Gotta agree with this, but it'll still get a run every year.
At the risk of sounding like 'incentivising' is the ONLY way to go, when it comes to HFL rep honours, what if the clubs with players that bothered to don the HFL jumper got $200 (or whatever). That's THE CLUB gets that. Otherwise, really, is there much drive for clubs putting up their best players with the risk of injury for zero premiership points?

Lol you blokes got me, I'm burnt and all upset. Off back to the tigers I go; I must've the Midas touch too because we're travelling quite nicely at the minute just like my old boys in your league.

Ironbank and Torrens Valley certainly are one of those sides, but Lobey? Think you have got your mail there wrong Legs. I went through their side that played Blackwood on the weekend and there was 16 players who have played Junior footy for the club, no way are they forking out the dollars compared to others running around. They even tried to lure Jesse Aish but was out done by $$$ to your club. Keep digging pal, you'll strike gold eventually.

Shouldn't someone in your position at a footy club being Echunga, be barking up on forums like this? Also how close were you blokes to getting Chad Osullivan? Just fell $hort?
