Been very quiet on the new signings front...I notice that Nathan Thompson has signed for Werribee and Peverill has gone to Collingwood...and apart from a couple of local players going to different clubs it's very quiet...the drafts have been and gone...it was announced here that Grima has signed for Port but I don't think that has been put on the Port website...is everyone heading off to Adelaide in search of the big bucks?

That's all I heard

Just logged into my e-mail and a media release was there confirming Thompson's signing. This is great for our football club and should help to fill the void left by Podsiadly moving to Geelong. I never really spoke to him all that much this year when he was a North Melbourne listed player, so I am looking to forward to getting to know him this year.

Great work by Werribee, Thompson is a genuine bloke who will help raise the profile of the VFL! Good luck to him.

I did read that Dylan Joyce and Xavier Gotch had signed with Willi: good for them if it is accurate. These 2 guys were the roving division of Vic Metro this year, and Vic Metro did win the Carnival. Otherwise, not a lot to offer.

Yeah confirmed. Read something on bigfooty about it. Good to see that he's on the Box Hill list

I'm pretty happy with the Yze signing. Whilst I'm not a huge fan of him as a player, he's the first big name in a long while. Guys like Hunter, Kenna, Ball, Morrell and Shore have all had experience on AFL lists, but Yze is the first who really has lengthy experience and a bit of talent, especially at VFL level.

I still hope we can add one or two more senior players.
