TOPIC:

9 non zone players across the three grades on Saturday how does that compare to other clubs. I think of those that have left Astro most are kidding themselves or their parents are that they are league players. Had to laugh at Brooksies old man who used to post like Astro that his son should be playing league. But there he is still playing reserves even at Perth. A few players had to be moved on last year for off field reasons of the kind EP doesn't need anymore. Fathers living vicariously through their sons I suppose.

Name the 9 please LB.

How much time do you think I have you can do it. How does that stack up with Swans for instance, this was a low week for AFL talent for us I should also admit.

Actually Razza, in 2008 East Perth finished 8th, not 9th. Claremont finished 9th.

You are right, Tiger of Old. Perth beat East perth in the last game of the year and Claremont beat South to move off the bottom.

My apologies. I looked at the wrong Football Budget.

And players have not departed the g7 to play in the country for better money or other g7 clubs for opportunities.I think a few swannies went to $ubiaco for better opportunities.

Surely you are not talking about Twomey and Robinson Chaddy?

Didn't go to $ubi for the $$money but the opportunity.The opportunity to play in a grand final.
