Who did Jack Weston play for?
foster
Donovan Epa is rumoured to be heading to MDU. Multiple premiership ruckman at Seaford.
he is confirmed along with another mate from down that way.
Pretty sure Tarwin are speaking with Jamie Cann, ex VFL player and Melbourne rookie regarding coaching them. He played in the Ellinbank League the past few years kicking 5 goals in premiership this year with Nilma Darnum. Playing coach.
i think you'll find pluggeroo is the president this year, mate.
shattered to see canny go.
Are you Australian? If so, you should probably spell "colour" like that.Wonthaggi Power are showing their true colors trying to poach under 15's and under 18's players from local Alberton Clubs.
It would be interesting to know how they got hold of jnr players details.
Could it be from the school where a Power supporter teach's?
They will stoop to any means for success.
The club's committee should hang its head in shame for supporting such measures with a town of over 8000 the should be able to have enough players without poaching from smaller towns.
P.S. To the spelling police please check and report back
Heard a whisper at the Yarram local that the Lynch twings-Nathan and Brent are returning to their home club. Refused to sign for under $250. I havent seen these blokes play from the juniors, can anyone give me any info on where they have been/are they worth this?
Dont know these two blokes but thought this was a good opportunity to ask the question.
Do blokes that return to their home club demanding good money (not talking about accepting a tank of fuel from the local servo) are they coming for the right reasons? Obviously not doing it for the club, giving their bit back. Is it just easy pickings - The club knows them and they dont need to prove themselves.
Could be a little bit old fashioned perhaps but what about club loyalty - the great feeling about going home and playing with your mates.
What do others think?
I would think you're talking about guys coming from some distance away? If so, it's not just the cost of petrol that's involved. If they're coming from Melbourne, it's a 4 hour journey return trip, which is a lot to take out of a weekend.
The home club would be competing against a club closer to their home where they don't have to make a 4 hour trip and can more easily attend functions etc.
You'd think that they'd come in a fair bit under market price. Perhaps wipe 50% off what they'd get at another Alberton club.
I'm sure they've got mates in the city who they'd like to spend some time with. Playing back home essentially cuts that out altogether and it's a big commitment. Been in the same boat and you know you're going to be close to sick of the travel by the end of the year.
The off months are usually a good indication. If they're there every weekend or not, it's probably a good indicator as to how often they actually like coming home.
A winter weekend in Yarram is a whole lot different to a winter weekend in Melbourne.
The motivation would be tossing up between the desire to come home and play with mates, vs the time taken up. THe cash is just the thing that tips the scales in favour of coming home, not the main motivation.
Yarram have appointed co senior coaches in Jaryd Swift and Chris Bruns.Do Yarram have a senior coach yet?
To the spelling police thanks.
