South Adelaide all things 2021

Link doesn't work?

Good one BW.I thought it might have been a whole year but still good.

I hope South wear black armbands for Ernie Sigley

surely Keegan Brooksby plays for South from next year, apart from the pay packet its been a waste of time for him & may've cost South having a real decent crack at it in the last few years too

no kidding!
Would think there's a pretty good chance of him playing at South next year.

I believe a big name player hasn’t come up & won’t play in the Elimination final

Good professional win over NA. Now beat Norward.

Will play next week v Norwood.

I believe, no that’s not accurate, I know that at least 2 assistant coaches will not be at Noarlunga next year, nothing untoward just a couple going off to do other things, good luck to both of them

Ben Warren one of them?

Both great people and loyal South people.

Will be a loss for the Panthers and the SANFL in general.

All assistant coaches at South gone.Handby coaching Morphett Vale.

Do assistant coaches receive any amount of remuneration. Might be financial or just experience. Best luck to them. Quality will be hard to replace.

They usually get paid but more of an honorarium.

Jarrad Wright signs on as coach until 2024.

Sign of confidence in him.

He's done well.

Ben Warren been successful everywhere he seems to go
Premiership as coach of Norwood
Assistant in ST premierships [ both ?]
Assistant in SA finishing 3rd this year

Not stirring the pots , Ben might be a hard person to replace at Noarlunga ?

Agree. The expectation is there now to go one or two better..

Retirements at South... Cross, Cailotto,Schwarz,Haren,Biemans,Brown & McCreery, Nobes...possible draftees... Horne-Francis, Roberts, Draper and maybe Birt....
8 of those listed played in the prelim Final....
a few vacancies to be filled..

I have to give a plug for Joel Cross
What a brilliant and very loyal career he had at South
He will be missed

Agreed, the Norm Smith curse was broken this year after 57 years, while at Norwood the Ben Warren curse while nowhere near as long as the Norm Smith one (so far) continues to haunt them
