You can just about set your clock to Webber signing at EP or Smithfield this time every year haha.

Reckon he’s had more signing announcements than goals kicked over the last 5yrs.

Sadly when you wonder why none of the Northern clubs seem to be able to climb the Divs, this is part of the reason - it’s a giant merry go round with players going from A to B to C to A to B to C.

Guessing McIver’s will be next on the clearance list?

Couldn't agree more with your assessment on the said clubs and players. Absolutely pathetic by the clubs to continue recycling the same old players. No doubt the clubs will say they aren't paying them but we all know that bs. How about try building something sustainable through either a decent junior program or a decent culture. Both may take longer to establish but both won't leave when the money dries up.

It’s all well and good to tell the world how good you’ll be with some signings, however even at D5 level if you have stuff all A grade depth or no immediate junior system in place to support you then recent history suggests it’s going to catch with you at some stage. The last 3 years in this div all A Grade Grand Finalists have a reserves team that has finished the minors in the top 4 or played in a reserves GF. Prior to that you have had Glenunga who had an elite junior program ready to explode - That compensated their rubbish B grade at the time. You need to build a sustainable base that’s going to hang around.

Top end D5 can produce a some what decent standard of footy and for years has been the start of many quick charges up the divisions.
Can you bring a man to his feet when defeat is on repeat?

I guess it comes down to how important you consider the division you play in.

Do all clubs think their exsistence is to strive to be a div 1 club or are some clubs happy being a lower division yo yo club if they snag a few flags along the journey.

The recruit from your nearest rival model has proven for the last twenty years its not a sustainable success model but hey if a fair few players grab that elusive premiership medal than can we really critisise.
That’s the other hard part, are your really good junior products going to hang around if they don’t see you recruiting the best players available.

Who knows the answer

Does the merry go round happen as much with the southern clubs?

At the end of the day if you don’t think clubs try and recruit players from further away instead of just from our area well you are clueless.. but it’s the same result either way! You get someone from a div 1-2 club to come across, they help you win a flag (if your lucky enough) and then they leave straight away anyway.. I guarantee you the goal at EP right now is to not just have a strong A grade, we’ve added the right people on the committee and chased a coach that we thought could help us build the club through every grade.. We haven’t lost anyone from our A grade last year, we have signed a bunch of players to improve on that squad which then means players will drop down and help the reserves get better and we’ve also signed a bunch other players plus a decent bunch of youth which hasn’t been announced yet to hopefully help us sustain a high level for the next 4-5 years

Things don’t just change over night let me tell you, and after the last few years at EP it’s going to take some work but I can assure you we are on the right path and the goal isn’t to just win a flag this year and then fall away!

1 committee member left, things are already 100x better around the place since the playing group come to that decision.. not a single player has left compared to the 20 that we’re going to if he was still there
