Tambling a good chance to be recruit of the year. Very good player at SANFL and was hoping West would sneak him away from Sturt. Did he win a b & f already there?

Aaron-JosephThe Glenelg Football Club is excited to announce the signing of former Carlton midfielder Aaron Joseph.
Joseph, 180cm and 78kg, played 73 AFL matches for the Blues between 2009 and 2013 after originally being recruited from Tassie Mariners in the TAC Cup.
The 24-year-old will add valuable experience to the Tigers’ on-ball division, which has already been bolstered by the signing of former Essendon and Richmond midfielder Sam Lonergan.
‘’I’m really looking forward to challenging myself in the SANFL with such a proud club,’’ said Joseph, who has inked a two-year contract.
‘’Glenelg has a young playing list so it will be exciting to join Sam in playing a mentoring role with so many talented juniors.’’
Joseph is the Tigers’ fourth significant signing this off-season with Patrick McCarthy (Carlton) and Nathan Stark (Melbourne) also returning to the club after being delisted by AFL teams this year.
“Aaron played at Carlton with Nick Stevens, and Nick couldn’t speak highly enough of Aaron as a person and as a footballer as his style will suit the SANFL,’’ Glenelg chief executive Steve Moore said.
‘’We can’t wait for Aaron to join us and add that grunt and experience our list needs.”
More player signings are expected to be announced in the coming weeks.
Great pick up. 4 blokes with afl experience recruited now, 2 of which returning to us. Nice to see more expected too.
I declare the Glenelg Football Club winner of the pre pre season cup.
You beauty, haven't lost one of those grand finals yet!

Who is that?
Former Golden Grove F.C. player who won a college scholarship to play Basketball in the U.S.. On his return to Australia, the Adelaide Crows were looking to rookie list him. Debuted for CDFC in 2011 (Round 11 vs. Glenelg) and scored a Powerade Star Search nomination in his first game.

Jacob has played 35 games at league level for Central District. Apparently can play forward or back. Maybe some dogs supporters could shed further light.

Mmmm develop our own players is what we're best at. We've just had another 4 players drafted to AFL level. Recently been recognised at a national level for our junior development programme.
But some still believe developing our own is something we don't do, or don't do well.

Handy reserves player.
Can play forward or back with about the same usefulness.
