''First round is probably the only chance of both Menzels being fit as well''

Just remember the Menzel's came to the Eagles for a reason and the reason was not money - there isn't any.
Most Eagles supporters were very surprised and we are not pinning any high expectations on them.

[DOC]

Not quite.

Money for playing per game, perhaps not.

Sign on fee Yes.

Jobs (coaching) yes.

As soon as the salary cap was dropped it was inevitable that the old way of paying would be back.

Same goes for Gibbs at South.

Brown paper bags?

[DOC]

Bigger sign on fees and jobs.

We have a ownership stake in a brown paper bag company.

[stan]

In fact Cibo at Norwood is just a front for all the brown paper bag related activities. I mean come on, nobody actually drinks that piss water coffee.

Menzels were undercut by the dogs and if they were after money could have played country football. It doesn't take much to see they were disenchanted after Andrews got the ass. I wish Sturt was in a position to have offered them something.

If they were after money, they could play for the Eagles. Has it been mentioned as yet what jobs theyve got?

Here we go again, sour is getting very sour.

Coaching.

Andrews had primed them for roles within the club that were (A) already currently filled and (B) not his responsibility to offer.
Hence their disenchantment with Andrews being dismissed.
We lost two because coach was sacked. Would have lost many more if coach remained.

Why shouldn't we be sour? Do you expect us to be happy and shout Hallelujah?
Perhaps you'd like to take some more of our best players.

Are we to receive transfer fees? Or do the Eagles get them for nothing?

[bulldogproud]

The reason we have the Barossa as our country zone is so that we can utilise as many sour grapes as we want.... and we will continue to. Us Doggies know how to utilise or 'cry' sour grapes better than anyone.

Looks like Templeton is coming back...…………..what's that his third spell with the club now.

Really not sure about the club continuously bringing back previous players that were 'serviceable' prior. Pretties up our recruiting numbers this year to a total of 6 players now with 3 of them being returning planners. Definitely hoping we recruit a few more because on 'paper' the outs look greater than the ins by a mile. Yeah yeah I know games aren't played on paper but its hardly enough to make the fans come back in the hoards.

Is any other club bringing players as regularly as the Dogs.....I know it worked for North with the Campbell brothers.

In recent times the Dogs have had

-James Boyd (3 stints at the club)
-Ben Nason (4579 stints at the club...………...is my fav though and one of the best blokes you will ever meet)
-Jacob Templeton (2-3 stints)
-Sam Hannah (2 stints)
-John Butcher (2 stints)

Screams of lazy recruiting in my opinion especially when considering only Boyd and Butcher have had extended periods of elite SANFL performance. The rest have been serviceable at best all spending time in and out of the league side.

It's not lazy recruiting, I think it's creating depth.
Don't fret though, The Club is doing EVERYTHING it can to secure some "A" Grade recruits.

We would definitely want to snag a few because elite talent is the issue not depth. Especially given how the ressies have performed in recent years.

At present the ins/outs is very ugly even before you take into account a lot of other clubs seemed to have improved their squads.

Surely by now we have secured some pending AFL draft.

THIS.... has been our issue for 5 seasons.
