Who is Craig Allen



A little "frog look a like" wingman from Kilburn. He might even struggle to get a kick out there.

If he would struggle out there Aceman why did you guys pay him to play at Gepps a few years ago? A lad with Div 1 experience should go alright surely?

Ha ha ha ha, you idiot Aceman!

Having said that, Gepps probably would throw money at someone who can't get a kick!

Came to Gepps with his mate D Francis because he didn't like Gary Peach, was on a base payment($50 I reckon) and played the majority of the season in the B grade 'cause he struggled to get a kick. A hard ball and him are not the best of mates!

Young Froggy will go ok with the bombers.


Any news on the coaching front at the clubs?

there are young locals not signed?? :shock: checkside I would think that most locals wouldnt need a signature to confirm they are playing down the road at their local club...surely, we're not in the AFL.....yet!

Wouldnt every player have to sign a registration form to play for the club, locals might not be signing onto contracts for money to play, but still would have to sign on to play for their local club

I wouldn't put too much of your hard earned on that!
It's too easy now to go down the road a few K's for a game, I'd be getting everyone you wanted, signed up "post haste".
Don't rely on gut feel especially nowadays as loyalty in a lot of cases has moved on to another planet.

Any rumours circulating yet about Robertstown joining the APFL? Heard it's an option if merger talks with Eudunda don't work out!

Very well. They would be easily be Hamley's best 2 players. Good luck trying to recruit them. Those 2 bleed black and red.
If you don't like it, change it. If you don't want to change it, it can't be that bad!

as said previous tommy & justin are hamleys best 2 players & their future.
if they lost them i would think that a few other locals would lose interest.

not sure on that one lazurus.
a couple of others from hamley definately went there for a few years.
but had a feeling that he stayed at hamley during that time.

Thanks for the info fella's, sounds as though they go ok. McMillan was the only person I could think of that has come over to the BL&G lately.
Was having the convo with work mate who knows them and we were arguing whether they were good enough to cut it in the BL&G.

I wouldn't put either of these two blokes in the same catergory as McMillian, both are far better players and certainly on a more consistent level. Schahinger in my opinion (and will cause a little controversy) is the best big man playing at the moment in the APFL, Ruck work is excellent and a good tap ruck at that, plus he does more than all other ruckmen around the ground, probably more a midfielder role but needed to in the bombers outfit. Would be interesting to see him in a good side. I saw the BLG grand Final and he would gobble up the Angaston rucks and he would have a good hit out with Wells from Tanunda.
Tom Smith seriously can play and is an extremely smart football with exceptional skills and doesn't mind putting his body on the line. Has had to carry the Bombers midfield for the past few years but similar to Schahinger in a good side where he wasn't so heavily relied on he would be quality. The question would they make it in the BLG, Yes and yes - my opinion only and it probably not worth much at this stage of my life.
