    Then again, Nor-West might have him wrapped up.
    He'll be out a little later in the season to give a few tips but won't be playing. He's family friends with one of the junior fathers. Why would he want to play any grade in sydney when his last game was the pinnacle of Footy?

      Nick would fit in well because with his skills he wouldn't have to work very hard. Suit him perfectly. In having that shot I acknowledge loving his play and his skills and especially that goal. I was in the pocket right in front of him. It was awesome.

        Word in the garden is that Tom Harley "will play a few games" this year.

            Tara,

            It appears that Balmains supposed numbers must like training and not playing, as they turned up to Monarch with about 18 seniors for a 6 qtr trial on Saturday and had to use the 12 u18s players that were there to make up numbers and then had to pull out of the u18s trial that was scheduled for after this game.

            Leaving Campbelltowns u18s having to play a 12 a side scratch match, maybe they were out spending their match payments in lieu of receiving them.

            For those interested,an understrength blues side won by approx 12 goals,against a less than enthusiastic Balmain side,seems nothing has changed.

                No longer just a rumour according to the clearances list

                    new team song too:
                    Cheer cheer the purple and white,honour the name by day and by night, lift that noble anchor high, shake down the thunder from the sky,whether the odds be great or small, dockers will go in and buy over all, while her loyal sons are marching on to victory.

                      Did anyone see Davis and the other ex swans play in the trial game last week? As in did they carve it up?

                        Good luck to them. Wish we could afford it.

                          No, none of them played.

                            Is this the same Nick Davis? Why does he need a VFL/TAC Cup clearance when he hasnt played VFL or Tac Cup for many years.

                              Probably the same reason that a guy who played and is registered with the Dogs against us today is also still registered with us - the system has glitches.

                              Or more probably it was the last league he was registered with and they hadnt taken him from their list.
