That's a good burst of recruiting Pierri has been a very good player at Pascoe Vale. Where do guys think this will put them? Could they run top 3?

Bridgy, P/H and Serp are starting from a long way ahead with much more settled core group of players. It will take time for this group to gel and they should be aiming at finals to start with. Considering 4 of the key recruits are from the EDFL wont have a pre-season to get to know blokes and depending on the draw may drop a few games early which hurts top 3 chances.

Newbridge may not lose the 20 + recruits that Birchy expected, Not sure what Marong has picked up and I'm sure Calivil will be having a crack under Andy Freemantle.

A lot of water to run under the bridge yet! Finals would be a good start after the last 2 years.

Jarred Postle, Ben Jones and Chris Belz the latest casualties from Newbridge I hear. Good to see Miti recruiting hard.

Don't know where you learnt to count DC01 you muppet but I think it's maybe time to go back to Sesame Street alongside your mate the 'Count Von Count' and he might be able to teach you a thing or two?
 
Is Withers Melbourne based or Darwin for next football Season? That's a really big outlay for the flights and for what it would take to get him all the way out the middle of nowhere.

is this 100%? looks like its the 2nd vic club he has signed with this year, the other being Longwood in the KDFL

100% signed sealed delivered. Didn't sign with longwood. I'm hearing that the hill will name some more recruits very shortly with an emphasis on hard but midfielders and silky skilled runners.
Looks like it will be the same three at the pointy end again?
 
(quote="Claude Critchley, post: 31096404, member: 128216"]Lucas Matthews being one of those signings???..[/quote]



Negative on that one mate he is heading back to koondrook Barham.

He might be signed but I'm not sure many people understand that these contracts are only as good as the money behind them. I would doubt that there is a club outside the AFL who could afford to actually enforce a contract.

I think your a fair way off there woody. I have seen first hand these contracts go to Vcfl level and stand up.
I don't know withers but its a bit of a statement your making by publicly claiming he won't stay true to his word. I have heard a bit about him but nothing to suggest he is tarred with that brush. We will find out come clearance time.

Hammond played at Cohuna last year tough hard at it mid. Bradley played at golden square can find the footy and uses it very well. Will both have a big impact in lvfl one would expect. Sounds like pyramids Fwds will get much better service in 2014. Only losses I've heard about are Dwyer and hill.
I have also heard parry leaving bridgey can anyone confirm on deny?

Not having a go at Linc at all, just the contract system. Seems that everyone is "signed" nowadays. Yes, the VCFL can refuse clearances and registration of a contracted player at another club.

You love going on about these contracts and possibly your only half right. I actually think it's the Club's who buckle who take an attitude of well he doesn't want to play with us so let him go. There has been a few cases where guys have had to sit out or honour their contracts.
