Old Scholars Thread

[Cotchy9]

On OHA, whispers around that Meagher is not playing this year and Bradford is back at Sorell. Still, back to back winners, so agreed, you cannot write them off!

Meagher would be a huge loss. Has a hell of a leap on him. Gave the midfield silver service a lot last year

I heard last week that he could be playing at Claremont.

Richmond picked up anything? Could be an even worse season if not due to the pick ups from other teams.

Heard Trey Butler-Smith, who played senior footy for a time in Gilmour's first year at Hobart, has gone to Richmond after having a year off footy last year.

DOSA appear to have picked up a few younger experienced types. Pretty quiet at Hutchins, Uni and OHA?

Hutchins picked up Marcus Davies. Crickets at OHA

 

[Gersman]

I see SVC have poached ex Mont and Glenorchyl's Michael Badcock and Ryan Barrow from Hobart.

In the past there has been a season preview in the mercury with all the in/outs. Hopefully one again this year as clearances are not longer public

It will be in the paper in the next few weeks when the OS comp starts up.

Uni- Lost a fair bit of quality.
Richmond- Don’t seem to have gained anyone of note. Another real long year ahead.
Hutchins- Gained quality but depth unsure of.
DOSA- Gained a heap but young. Got some height in which will be a point of difference.
OHA- Heard they’ve lost more then they’ve gained.
St Virgils- Gained a lot and should win unless get horrific injury toll.

St Virgils couldn't get one bloke to turn up for a photo?

St Virgils couldn't get one bloke to turn up for a photo?

I heard they all wanted a $200 appearance fee

St Virgil’s flag to lose based on yesterdays result

They didn't have a lot to beat on Saturday to be fair.

Standen pulled the pin I’m hearing? Not sure where Langford was either

Not sure about Standen but OHA had 8 senior debutants and over half the side out with covid (including Langford)

Did well to field two teams if that's the case. Who were the other 10 that were missing?

 

[footy11]

I'm hearing DOSA smashed by Covid, Hutchins by 66pts
Uni by a similar margin against Richmond.

I'm hearing that was one of DOSA's biggest crowds for years on Thursday night, and got the chocolates in the 1s over the Beans by just over a goal.

Yep was talking to Speedy the other day and he’s done.
Ships have also lost Whish Wilson, Hill and Meagher.

Meagher a massive out, was huge for them last year

yeah they had a few there and no one missing with Covid . Poor kicking from us didn't help.

This week.
Hutchins by 44 over the ships
Saints by 20 goals over Richmond
Uni by 1pt over the Chooks

 

[Gersman]

Ships seem to have lost a lot. Premiership defence in tatters sitting second last, only Richmond keeping them off the bottom.
OVA looking good so far, Chooks and Beans close by.
