Brett Farmer was the most disappointing out of those 4 he only lasted 2 games in which he did little before shooting off. Allen & Simms had injury problems whilst Vasoli was over 30 & past his best footy.

I know this is a WAFL thread but cannot help myself Bennet Copping!

Travis Gaspar.

For Subi Adam Campbell has already been mentioned by also big Brant "Gas" Chambers never fired a shot either. Not really a new recruit I guess as he started with Subi then went to SA before coming back...but Subi did bring him back specifically to play for us so is worthy of a mention here.

Made me think of Ryan Herring as well.

hay did that bloke play juniors at wilson park, rivervale?

I couldn't tell you in honesty Robba - it's possible

Probably a bit harsh in my putting him up actually , Christ the hype & expectancy must have damned near crushed the bloke when I think of it

Great overhead mark & deadly kick at goal , a hulk of a fella after doing some big gym stuff in our rooms

Guernsey number 28 or 29 at EP I think & 18 at South

My records have Paul Arnold as coming from East Perth/Highgate so he could well of played there at Rivervale as its not far from.

David Wirrpanda & Kane Pettifer deserve a mention Grump!

Can't remember his name but a bloke that wore number 27 for swans, started at Subi, never fired a shot at the Ducks. Could have played in a few ressies premierships if he had gone back to Subi.
