Geez tuff luck for Rob :( we ave lost our first two games but in light of the experienced personel that left to earn some good coin I have a great bunch of young blokes working very hard to establish themselves as senior players now some opportunities have presented :thumbsu:

Hopefully I get another go with them next year when chippa becomes my assistant :rolleyes: . . . . . one can only wish

A lot of people up here know of SJ , With the write ups from the local fish and chip wrapper . Also he's ex pres. coaches P.D. so who from there dont know of him . cowbay is only a couple kilks down the road
 
For the competition's sake, I hope Cobras find some more players. The two thrashings we saw today (and the fact they were only able to field 14 players in the reserves) don't bode well...:(

Cobra's are a rabble. Saints are starting to play the footy that does their list justice. Eagle was bog for mine yesterday, with Coatsworth and co starting to gel in the midfield. When they lost to the Cutters they were smashed all over thet ground that day, but mainly in the midfield. Saints have halfa dozen players missing from yesterdays side including their bigger players who all are due back in the next week or 2. Only time will tell if they are a fair dinkum premiership front runner with the Cutters.

Saints will shake the sh.t out the comp this year. Starting appear a two horse race even this early. Dont write Hawks off though still to early. Was disappointed lossing to them yesterday. I really thought this might be the year of the croc but starting to doubt our chances really.:thumbsdown:
 
Rep team

I was reading the footy record on Saturday and was looking at the rep team. Can anyone fill me in why the following players havent been named. Sirra from Centrals, Shaw from Souths, Rattray from Souths, Watt from Saints & Rundle from Hawks. I thought these players were guns and are better than half the players named. Looks too many Centrals & Citys players in. They are the bottom 2 clubs
Maybe the rep coaches, none of which come from the top 3 clubs, should have a look at there squad.

Great to see Ratray get a mention, last couple of years hes been in footy limbo and if anyone could turn him around it would be Sj .

not all players feel they have to play rep footy,some may have injury concerns,others maybe unavailable and the lessor clubs do have good footballers as well you know, as for the top 3 club's coaches, steve daniels is the state coach, so is unavailable, m kennedy is in the sqaud as a player, and norths did'nt win a game last year, so it would be a bit hard to have mcguane in front of dual premiership coach mick purcell ''SURELY''

Yeah the Cobras are a disgrace....and that's both on and off the field. Apparently they started a blue with a few of the Saints boys on Sunday night...obviously can't handle getting smashed every week. Aaron Nesbitt must be running a sh*t show out there if that's what their players do.

What ever the case maybe I think we should all try to support the Cobra's cose if we are not carefull we could loose them and nobody wants that. They have great facilities and I know that the committee works hard. They need 15 players of quality. Perhaps the league need to put a paid position in there to assist. Football Operations Managers jobs will become the norm over the next 5-10 years even at a local level. We can't expect volunteers to put in 30-40hrs of un paid work, week in week out, year in year out. There becomes a stage when burn out occurs and we loose those great people for ever. Consider this for an option. 50k salary for football operations manager and also make them the coach. By doing this we kill two birds with one stone. They can do a lot of the work that committees are expected to perform, ie the day to day administration and paper work, recruit players, set their goals and make it much more professional. Mark these words as the full time positions are already implemented at some clubs at local level across the country and it is certain to come in up here. Food for thought? It would be great to get some feed back from forum users on this topic. I may just be off the mark here, but, somehow I don't think so. Eagerly awaiting replies.:)

Just read the side in the local fish and chip wrapper ,:cool: , Shaw from Souths is in the side :thumbsu:, Rundle is getting a bit long in the tooth ;) and maybe the others have injuries, I didn,t think there were tooo many Centrals and Cobra players , anyway if they are good enough why????? not select them , this side looks really good . I think Mick Purcell would be quite happy , now toooo cut the side down -----best of luck coach !!!!!:D
 
Just heard from a very reliable source, that the Saints have 18 injuries at the mo and are struggling to get replacements, seems that the coach pre season knocked back a few takers and said he had enough numbers, know of one chappy not a happy camper :eek:
 
hay just wanting 2 no how the saints are traviling n how eagle, crisera are going?? and also if the dedini brothers are playing and if there gettin some touches mick got pleanty in the sunraysia and central murry league..
