Former North Adelaide key forward Liam Verity has joined division one club Golden Grove after a successful period with Modbury during which he booted 267 goals in four seasons.

Verity is a major arrival for the Kookaburras after finishing fifth last season and should help to take their forwardline to another level.

Aaron Marchioro (CBC OC to United)

Tadhg Marchioro (CBC OC to United)

CBC OC’s Marchioro brothers have departed the club to join United in the APFL.

Aaron held down a consistent spot in the A Grade side in division three last season after playing a major part in the Dolphins’ 2023 div four flag.

Both brothers should be a boost for the Tigers as they aim to play finals next season.

The brothers played their junior footy with the Eagles, winning junior and senior colts premierships before leaving for Millicent and winning three senior flags with the Saints.

Kade vice captained Millicent last season, while Frazer finished second in the league goalkicking tally, almost adding to his three leading goalkicker awards.

Magarey Medallist and five-time North Adelaide best and fairest Campbell Combe has returned to hometown club Crystal Brook in the biggest local SA footy move for 2025 so far.

A dominant midfielder who can take a game by the scruff of the neck, Combe will play alongside star brother Will at the Roosters as they aim for an NAFA flag.
