Balmain does need to focus on the players more and offer a more player friendly enviroment i believe that this year they are putting players first with more functions and team building events.Other than the stated transient stars there are some great blokes who love there footy win or loss (LOSSES AT THE MOMENT).These are the guys at the sports club having a steak and beer after training and games who make this club and great place.Success will come eventually(god if your up there did you read that cheers).Comment

The clearances won't be up till closer to the season. Clubs tend to play their cards close to their chest with player signings - and with the @@@@ they cop when they do announce a big name or expensive signing you can't blame them for that.

I've got to say, coming from a club that doesn't pay players I find it difficult to fathom.
Unless everyone's getting a slice which would cost a small fortune, how do you keep people happy when as Ken says, his money is going into someone else's pocket.
Surely word must get around about who's getting what which can't be helpful.
Genuine expenses are fine and perhaps with a gun player you might waive fees. My understanding is that Penno have a payment scheme based on 3-2-1 points as voted by the players each week. Seem to remember B-O-G being a reasonable sum ($300 - 400). Enough to provide some additional cash for your top performers but not enough to cause divisions.
Sydney Uni cop a lot of flak for scholarship money but this is another avenue of paying players (e.g. Egan) that probably does not cause too much jealousy.
The reality is that most players play in Sydney for the love of it. I still think a good community set up like Penno and St George is better and more successful long term than the boom-bust clubs like Wests and Balmain. ECE may have the best of both worlds by having the community set up and financial clout but it needs to be managed carefully.Comment

My mail is the Dockers have recruited strongly from Victoria. There may also be an agreement with the Swans to be announced soon about surplus players going round with the Dockers.
Recruiting from outside Sydney AFL is smart. As more quality players join, they will start to attract Sydney AFL players.
Where are the swans going to get these surplus players to give to the dockers ???? They (the swans ) struggled to get enough listed players on the park last year in the actfl and were topping up with rams and local actfl players....Comment
