IF has some interesting VFL news, some signings include:
Werribee - Salim Hassan (Port), James Allan (Geelong), Jake Furfaro (Brisbane), Chad O'Sullivan (Subiaco), Travis Ronaldson (Centrals) whilst they have lost Rhys Carter to basketball.
Williamstown - Dean Benson (Collingwood), Murray Boyd (Carlton), [b]Ben Clifton and Paul Shelton (Hawthorn)[/b]
Bullants - Ricky Mott has left, to be replaced by Justin Crow (Collingwood). Nathan O'Donoghue (Tasmania U18) and Mungara Brown (Bendigo) have also signed.
Leigh Carlson will only play half the season for Coburg, and Michael Ablett has quit Frankston.
Andy Collins has said James Ivory, James Cook and Andrew Buckenara are players to watch.
To qualify, Mick Ablett has actually quit Australia!
My Bendigo Footy website got a mention in the UP YOURS esction with Jim Main in this edition of Inside Footy!
Geez, there's a few names I think very highly of there. They've done exceptionally well with their recruiting at Chirnside Park. Ronaldson was a Gippsland boy in his TAC Cup days, and has been a bit of a nomad since having played in Tasmania and Sth Australia. Gives the Bees a bit of height.
Furfaro was an All Australian U18 and Harrison medallist for QLD in the 2003 U18 Championships.
O'Sullivan and Allan are short in height but both are exciting little footballers.
And at Coburg, the Leigh Carlson situation is interesting, Coburg have a low Sunday fixture so he won't get many games. And they'll also be on the look out for a new captain. That decision will be interesting.
What's the story there?
