Yes, Westies have been a bit of a dumping ground for ex-Hawks recently. Riley Milne and Trav Tuck have also spent time there.

Dal Willsmore stepping away from the SANFL to head back to the family farm



Dallas Willsmore has made the hard decision not to play SANFL football next year and head back to the family farm to assist there in 2021. It was a tough decision for him but family always comes first and we respect his decision and wish him all the best.
 
Wow.. I clicked on a thread.. Read it..

And it was positive.. Without diatribe about governments, persecution, Kennet's penis or AFL bias against Hawthorn.

I think I'm going to lie down.

Thought I'd buck the trend :p

Former rookie Luke Surman transferring from Norwood to Port Adelaide in the SANFL. Talk that Port are looking at him to potentially pick him up in the mid season draft.

Surman, meanwhile, was on Hawthorn’s list in 2017 before he walked away from an AFL career, returned to SA and joined Norwood.

The 23-year-old lined up in five league matches and six reserves games with the Redlegs this year.

“Luke was a good one because we are looking for a key forward who can ruck a little bit, at SANFL level that’s probably something we need,” Grim said.

“ I think he sees it as maybe another (AFL) opportunity if he can do the right thing in an elite environment around some elite players who might help his game go to the next level.

“With us having the ability to list players mid-season … we do like to do it and not disrupt other SANFL clubs too much, it’d be good to have somebody close by who we already know about.”

Out of interest, why there?

Would he have a tie to the club somehow? Match payments?

Future coaching roll?

Talk about a blast from the past - any of you old enough to reminder dashing halfback David Polkinghorne who owned what can only describe as a "unique" kicking style

Chris Langford which is also more common knowledge however.

Wish Box Hill made an offer to Mathew Walker
Reckon it would be pretty hard to stay on at Box Hill running around with your former teammates knowing/thinking you weren't good enough. Better to move on and change the scenery. All the best to him.
