Yep spot on Falconstrike and Leedy.. Are you going to the game on Tuesday.. I will be at the Function. I will be the guy in the WP shirt
If you read my post on the other Krakouer topic on this thread.. Nah not the WAFL Topic on this webpage

I suggested that we get over it an move on... Not much we can do about it now.
Hopefully if we win the game tomorrow night we will at a minimum pick up $40,000 as runners up. That will more than cover what Krakouer and Spencer have cost us and the Club would of also learnt a good lesson.

Says the club that has been poaching for years, Bunton, Neesham, Melrose and the list goes on and on - all clubs do it

In saying that I was coy about the Krak deal, like getting a well aged racehorse after he's broken down, not many of them get back to there best form ever again, Krak case in point there. WP should have looked after there own, very disappointed to lose Stockley, with Kepler forced out to Peel

amazing to think SD top four goal scorers this year aren't even home grown SD players....yep look within MO, totally agree mate.....look within every other club, bar your bloody own!!

Bunton; really Kirbs? Grasping at straws. For the record which WAFL club do you support. I will be interested to see whether that WAFL club has recruited anyne from outside their zone.

Do u want my list in ascending or descending order 42? Didn't kirbs say "all clubs do it" 42?....... why do u SD boys get so protective and antsy when an opposition fan points out the obvious in regards to the SDFC. Just funny to think you boys love to back slap and brag how SDFC always promote from within yet the likes Cary,Geappen,Jukes and Davis are all recruits........fair play to your nous in recruiting tho....top shelf stuff........just think how even higher you would be if someone down SD way could count a bit better....Twomey,Hilda, Kraks and Roachie.......EP wouldn't stand a chance me thinks?

What don't you understand when I wrote "All clubs do it"

And if you read more than the first line you would know who I support

And it cannot be deemed poaching when a Club does not rate a player eg; Skender, who then goes to another Club and becomes a very good player - this happens a lot too

to further clarify - there is nothing wrong with recruiting, WP getting
Adams and Potente was very smart work, however Krak and Spencer was not smart work and was always going to be a waste of money.

Always a risk. Back in the day Neesham & Melrose were great pick ups for Swans, where you namesake was a waste of time for Old Easts

Would make a good topic Makers & Breakers who transfered clubs in there career. There would be some great ones , and some real busts.
