Dean Snedker, Paddy Casey, Ben Garwood??*, Ryan Hughes, Shane Bush, Nathan Tshikuna, Nigel Chikamba, Jesse Akubuine, Matt Slinn, Lorrell Smith**, Ravi, Will Jones, Lewis Johnson***, Diakiesse, Jordan Graham??, Ben Diamond, Furlong, FBT.

*may have left as he was on dual registration with another team.
** Not sure if he left during the season?
*** departed after his loan?

Burge said he’s spoken to all the players.I don’t think all of those will re-sign for us, but there’s no need for panic stations.I have 100% faith Burge will get the players in we need.

Completely agree. There's a decent core of 6 or 7 in there if we can retain them and it seems as ABs pool of contacts is far greater than Peaks' ever was.

And if it's a brand new 11 then bring it on, I'm looking forward to it

Mind you it could be confusing if we had himm and Jordan Graham. The Poppies signings to date not very inspiring they could struggle next season

Seeing what's unfolding down the road at the Ploppies, is an example of how tough it is to survive at National league!
They did extremely well last season (grits teeth), but in the blink of an eye it looks like this coming season is shaping up to be a struggle to survive. Losing big earners off their books and signing players from Corby, St Ives etc. It doesn't bode well.
