TOPIC:

And worrying also that Ansey, Clarke, Yorkshire, Kelley, Dean, Gillard, Fletcher, Firns and Riddoch have drifted away to the ammos or country. That's not good for the WAFL....at least Riddoch found a home at WP

If Reid Polak struggled to get a game at Perth how in hell is he gonna get a game at Subi?....I'm all for shooting for the stars....but seriously?....but hey if the fella does well...than better than doing not so well elsewhere I guess.....

Same with Le Fanu, who's gone to the Monts.

As for Parry, he's been away from Swans since 2013.

To describe that as poaching is a mighty stretch BeasleyHutton

I wasn't directly referring to Parry LH as you say he has been playing in the SW for the last few seasons but definitely all of the other boys have been poached by your mob.
Nelson for example was still on Swans list and was a required player last year no doubt "someone" must have got in his ear and all of the other boys Polak, Litherland, Powell, Matera, Menegola, Adamson et al were poached from their original WAFL club.
You guys are obviously quite content with continually recruiting out of zone players year after year, not that you really need to I have gone over your success over the last 30 years or so before, and all you are doing with this is topping up an already strong list at the expense of the struggling clubs, thus making the WAFL as uneven as possible and it has gone on for far too long now that most opposition supporters have walked away from the WAFL too actually care now....but a few of us will keep punching on!

Nelson might have been required...but clearly he didn't want to play for Swans otherwise he would not have left for the ammos.

Matera and Sokol, I will concede. I'm guessing our footy manager has old friends at south.

And as for blokes like adamson, well, as we all know EP and PT players are always looking for a new home.

Not sure about Powell. He played 2 league games at CL last year.

At the same time there are plenty of former Subi players at other clubs....Jacky, Delbridge, Campbell, Coe, Mozhaev, at WP alone....Hampson and Krakouer at EF....Jacobs and Keast at Perth. That's footy

good luck trying to talk common sense with a $wan$29m supporter LH.

You guys are obviously comfortable with the whole situation re continual out of zone recruits.
Well I hope you enjoy playing WAFL against yourselves very soon because the comp will be as dead as a dodo by 2020 and the likes of Tugboat will have their wish.

Both me and BC mentioned that we weren't comfortable with the Polak situation. By all accounts, he wasn't at the ammos.

But we'll wait and find out the facts....maybe he knew he wasn't in the main frame at Perth....I don't know

Even with exciting youngster Woodley gone to greener pastures, I find it hard to believe that Polak will oust the likes of D Clarke, Ryan, Halligan, Vermeersch, Nelson, Sokol, but perth let him go...not sure why

That must have been the reason when Robbo did all his pre-season training and Swans. At the end of the pre-season he must have realised that he wasn't good enough to make our league team and as a consequence he moved to a club with a weaker league squad to ensure that he would be selected in Subi's league team.

Mate, fair dinkum...what's that got to do with the Polak situation. A kid with 7 league games to his name
