      The edge is not the limit, It's just the starting point...

        Donohue is one of the most loyal clubmen in the game, he's been offered bucketloads by most clubs in the comp. But he plays for the love of the game and the love of his club. You watch the youngsters comin through at the dragons, they look up to everything he does. He is one of those blokes that brings team spirit to a club which pekay and pace were referring to before...

        As for Dougmore, good luck to him at the eagles. He has a lot of natural talent but he's no team player

          Good luck to Duggy at ECE. Chasing a Flag.. I'll give him 10 weeks, he dosnt like training,dosnt like Garners game plan (remembering he was one of those team leaders that voted him out of Crows). And when they start kicking it to someone else and not him, the head will go down and of he will go...Great cricketer should stick to that!!

            i ask the question how does a club recruit better or higher quality players to the club if results on the ground show the club in the way it does.
            Not sure on actual figures but say the club has had 8 wins in 4 years, without getting the cheque book out can everyone tell me how they would even attempt to get players to their club in same situation.....
            you cant because your not in it..
            yet at every chance possible people take the chance to rubbish a club who are only trying to get competetive... They have a great venue better than alot of others around sydney but what happens if a club is forced to fold because they are forced to pay such high prices for middle tier players. Maybe big kev should go and coach the dockers not penno or campbelltown and then he can revive the club...

              R u for real chook.
              Weren't you the 1 who was flown back & forth at great cost to Balmain?

              Thats right your the same player who left St.G for ECE only to chase more at the blues then sell yourself to Balmain.

              They surely paid too much for this middle tier player

              P.S. Maybe they shouldn't recruit players like you & then they may turn it around. Thanks for the loyalty.

                at cost too who???? u take 2 days off work a week and see who it costs? Also not sure if you have short memory but went to east coast and campbelltown with garns. this is about a club not anything else or personal attacks if you would like personal attacks your quite welcome to come visit in darwin and voice your opinion face to face other wise lay there and get walked over like a good doormat.

                    Can't blame them for trying. After several years with not a lot of success it would be a challenge - but there may be someone in Victoria who fancies the opportunity of trying to restore the on-field fortunes of a state league club. You never know who's out there unless you try things like that.

                      Cant believe they are doing it now.

                      How is it that ECe can get Jarjoura & charlston with 2 other 06 players back from Queensland then they sign Dugmore & then top it off with Coles from Uni but Balmain are still going with no-one? Was it really the old coach or the people in charge? You only have to look at who they recruited like rooster too know they are in trouble.

                          I have to back the Chook up here, he did follow Garns to east coast and us. He was only paid his market value by us and was a very committed club man while he was there. If Balmain were stupid enough to pay him large and fly him down thats not his fault, probably says more about them then him

                              I cant see jarjoura heading back to ece after the prelim final of 08.

                              Who is charlston?

                              Who is "2 others" and are they reserve or senior players?

                              Has dugmore and coles been confirmed

                              Is the above heresay or fact. Can we get someone credible from ECE to perhaps confirm this scuttlebut.

                              What other clubs have landed players?

                              I can confirm we are struggling early doors but there is a long time to go
