Dreamtime will be good this year. Yarran, Rioli, Edwards and Drummond. I think the Bombers have no indigenous players on the list anymore? How times have changed.
They gave Dempsey another year and just recruited Yestin Eades.
I was sure they delisted Dempsey. He is a spud. Forgot about Yestin. Nevertheless we finally have more than a token indigenous player.
They were threatening to delist him as he was out of contract. Ended up giving him a one year deal.
OER. Calling it as it is since 2004.

No - they gave Dempsey another 1 yr contract after the trade period

Is what the publican said to them, as the bar was in North Queensland...
"Tradition is not the worship of ashes, but the preservation of fire."
