SANFL FOOTBALL Changing of the guard at South AS THE SANFL season draws closer, SHAUN HOLLIS and ANDREW FAULKNER ask all nine clubs for their ins and outs - then offer predictions as to where your team will be at the end of the minor round. SOUTH ADELAIDE In: Ryan Fitzgerald (Adelaide, key forward), Gerrard Bennett (Sydney, defender), Justin Berry (Carlton, wingman), Michael Handby (Adelaide/Glenelg, defender), Michael Davis (Carlton, onballer), Rod Tregenza (Kangaroos, forward), Mark Bradley (Bendigo Diggers, ruckman/forward), Aiden Parker (Subiaco, Crows rookie list, fullback), Jason Torney (Richmond to Adelaide, defender), Ricky Clark (Narre Warren, midfielder), Aaron Roche (Gaza, key forward). Out: Ian Perrie (North Adelaide), Merv Kartinyeri (Tailem Bend), Jaxon Crabb (Claremont, Port Power delisted), Allan Murray (St Kilda, Port Power delisted), Derek Murray (North Albury, Port Power delisted). Shaun Hollis: ''After a major about-face from last season's policy of recruiting within the area, coach Greg Anderson has landed a few gun recruits from across Australia. Look out for Tregenza, who starred for the VFL in last year's state game, and Bradley, who finished third in the 2002 Liston Medal - the VFL equivalent of the Magarey. Prediction: middle three.'' Andrew Faulkner: ''Difficult to predict the Panthers' fortunes because of the personnel changes. Bottom three.'' | |
