this is disappointing. thought suckers was a terrific addition even though he suffered from injury. as for ferg, a big loss. must ask where he is off to, if he hasn't left already.

kid working for us at the moment has been asked to try out:

Justin White (Macleod) - A smooth mover and very difficult player to find a match-up for. An exceptional mark for his size, White will out-mark small defenders, but will also out-run bigger bodied opponents. Possesses a lovely left-foot kick.

great kid! (for a carlscum fan!!)

How old is this "kid"? Does he go by the nickname 'Scooter"?
Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

Well I see what Bucks and the Coaching staff do.

I know it is good move to start Young KPP down back but he is better Prospect up Forward

That's him!

Two guys drew for 1st in the best and fairest, Justin was a clear second to them. He needs work on his fitness (I keep telling him to bring his runners for lunchtime training!) though I think is carded him off filling his head with the image of an old chook jumping up and down behind the fence wearing his number and yelling 'JUSTIN JUSTIN"!

You seen him play? I think he's around 24.

His Dad played CHB in 1976, before moving to FF in 1977, into the ruck in 1979 and eventually to the wing at Melbourne (although he was still officially ruck there).

A lot of disgruntled VFL players are being targeted by cashed up local football and amateur clubs. Jobs and $$ is a good incentive.

Been a good player for Port Melbourne.

I thought he might get another chance at AFL level a few years ago.
