2012 season and recruiting

[First Round Pic]

St George to Balmain Bowen, Sean
Balmain to Southern Power Turner, Daniel

Looks like a couple of "Fringies" undecided about their playing future, gee boys, good luck........persistence & hard work will get you a run in the one's at your home club with people that believe in you, leaving to seek a run in the one's elsewhere will ultimately get you a run in a divisional club. Good choice guys, better choice than going to play next to "kick it to me" Hally though.

In what way was Turner a "Fringie" after playing 16 first grade games and was apart of their Grand Final side? An incredible get for the Power in my opinion

Get me a team of Fringies like Turner. Two years at U18 Nationals, Swans Reserves, never played anything other than Premier League firsts since 16, invited for pre season with Port Melbourne, clubs leading goal kicker in the VFA, selected in Sydney rep squad last season and arguably one of Dockers best players 'till hamstring injury. etc etc. No wonder Sydney football struggles!!!

The Power are delighted that DT has decided to continue his career closer to home. I have played with him at Balmain and now the Power and couldn't say a bad word about him on or off the field.

Note that Balmain have a number of inward clearances pending.

Josh Cass is a name that stands out, was a terrific young player at Nor-West and will be a big loss for them, hopefully does well at the Dockers.

A few recruits from WA and Tassie as well.
