Looks like Harley Bennell going to have another crack at WAFL this year with Peel Thunder according to the West today.

That's good to see. I think Harley has matured a lot. Fingers crossed those calves hold up.

Any idea which club is going to provide him this lifeline?.....perhaps SF or Cl.

Been training at Peelmantle since Christmas so looks like he'll be playing with them, rather see him go to a lower finishing club than a Subi, SF, CL or Joondy.

If he can stay on the paddock he is a fantastic player and would be in the top 10 players at WAFL level. Always remember the day down at Rushton when he was on 50% playing time from Freo and blitzed us (Subi), played half a game and had 24 touches and 4 goals, it was a pleasure to watch. Unfortunately that was the game where he severely injured his calf in a collision with Subi's Scotty Hancock who did an ACL that ended his career.
 

I understand that Matt Young has pulled the pin at East Perth

Any idea where he’s heading Grump?

Nope, I only know that he has pulled the pin, he was at one stage rumored to be going to perth last year but a WAFL rule and lack of something put paid to that!

 

Young kicked 5 for EP v EF last year from memory.....

Including three goals in the last quarter, Freez, with his fifth for the day putting EP back in front deep into time-on.
From memory, it was Jono Marsh who kicked the winner for EF a minute later. 
On his day, Matt Young is a very good footballer, particularly around goals.
I didn't think he had a great 2021 season, but hopefully Young isn't lost to EP.

Yes, the WAFL rule and "a lack of something"
Do you mean the transfer fee and no other club is interested in paying it to secure him? Which means he ends up back at AMRFC?
