Train wreck waiting to happen
Click to expand...

Disagree, both Melton sides are already a train wreck. I reckon most people would have thought similar things about Cupido when he signed at Marsh. Fev has shown with every club he has played with since leaving AFL that he has given full commitment and results have followed. What ever they are paying him they will make up in bar sales in the first home game and will no doubt be able to attract other recruits on the back of having Fev. Only issue might be his media commitments getting in the way but as long as Fev can juggle it all then it has to be a positive. The young blokes at the club would already be looking forward to preseason and making sure they are in good shape knowing such a high profile coach is on the way.

About time one of the Melton clubs did something ambitious like this.. For too long all 3 (Melton, South & Centrals) have been a basket case.

Fev played at Deer Park this year who won the 15 GF by the length of the straight bro, don't get all to caught up in Fev helped Deer Park win a flag. I think Shannon Byrnes, Justin Perkins and the likes also had a big bearing on that flag. Not to mention at Yarrawonga they were like a Vic Country outfit also.

He is a good addition to most clubs, however not sure he has the wear with all to build and develop a club that is coming out of the basement.

It will be a train wreck in 2018 or 2019 when none of these blokes are there. The place will be in ruins.

Are Lake Wendouree losing anyone next year? Anyone heard anything. North will lose many I hear.

The place was already in ruins, at least they are trying something. The money they pay him will be returned quickly with increased sponsorship that if they are smart they will hold onto post Fev, they will bring old supporters back to the club, increased bar sales and get a bit of buzz around the place. I havent watched a Ballarat League game for many years, but grew up in Melton when Melton & South were dominant and proud teams and makes me sad seeing them be minnows holding up the ladder whilst teams like Darley and Bacchus Marsh fly past them. At least South have got off there @ss and are doing something productive.

I suppose it is something to get excited about for the next 12 months or so

Well said mate. Big area Melton and maybe Melton Sth have decided to be the one to get a jump start & go forward. This will definitely create a buzz around the area and go on them for going out and recruiting big Fev.

Have heard north are losing a few, as for Lake wendouree it looks like they will hold onto most if not all players from this year. But in saying this it's very very early into post season and anything can happen
 
Having finally broken the drought looks like The Marsh wanna stay up the top for a while and have already signed another couple from O&M comp.Good on em with a good crop of local talent and smart recruiting.

Definitely, they've got a great group of younger players and have recruited well with an eye to continued success.
