Clay smith coaching Ballan, anyone else heard this ?

Good get there Bambino.

 

[bombers1983]

Have heard the carter boys from Melton have signed at springbank. Handy pick ups if true.

Co coaching, Will be interesting to see how that goes. Previous history shows he keeps to himself when coaching on the bench and has little communication with his assistants

 

[WB ute]

That a bit of an upset today ??

 

[Borussia Teeth]

Daylesford do the double.

 

[Kilonewton]

Only just thawed out.

First time at a CHFL grand final since 2004. Northern Oval was better when you could back the work ute up the fence and sit in a camp chair, rather than freezing your nads off in a soulless grandstand.
Using the food outlets rather than the North Canteen was also an issue. There was no chat available with the volunteers from Beaufort so my chips came with gravy & cheese. I therefore couldn’t place them in my chips & gravy ranking system. Gravy was of a good quality & quantity, would have been top 10 without the cheese.

Did hear some grumbling that now Buninyong, Learmonth & Bungaree are quality grounds, it should be time to take the Grand Final back to CHFL venues.

You are not wrong about only just thawing out conditions were horrible. Left mid second quarter but Bungaree looked like the nerves got to them in the part I watched and didn't seem like they'd settled at all compared to Daylesford.

 

[Leather Magnet]

Caleb McGrath and Taylor Hall officially confirmed as joint coaches at Waubra.
Mitch Walsh to coach Skipton with Josh Webster as assistant.
Half the clubs in the league have changed coach for next season which is interesting.
Waubra, Ballan, Rokewood Corindhap and Buninyong going with joint coaches which seems a high number of clubs going down that path.

 

[Leather Magnet]

Some interesting player movements early in the off season.
Rokewood Corindhap signing a few. Windmill money proving helpful?
Hepburn losing both Grant boys was unexpected.
Learmonth bringing in some more youth.
Ballarat forum suggesting Adam Toohey leaving Gordon. Any truth to that?
Zack Ryan heading back to the Central Murray league also.
Bungaree topping up through family ties with Geordie Lukich.
Buninyong busy resigning current and former players.
What other signings are generating interest?

 

[Grimmett]

Jackson Carrick leaving Hepburn for South Barwon also.
