What's all the bloody interest in Bulleen Temp anyway. Word on the street is the former coach of a C grade ammo side has just been appointed. C'mon Ugly spill the beans.

Can confirm appointment of David Matthews as coach of Bulleen Templestowe. He had 3 very successful seasons at Ormond & 2 very succesful seasons at Uni Blues before that. Congratulations to Bulleen Temp on their choice.You can expect nothing less than total committment from him.

Big call considering the names who were apparently interviewed.
Nice get. Quality coach and quality individual.
 
This may be out of line (hopefully not) but anyone care to mention those fellas who were pipped by Dave for the coveted B-T senior gig?


the one I spoke to coached A grade very recently. And you would all know his name.

That aside, the decision has been made so its not really appropriate to air any other names. Most of what is posted on this thread would be heresay anyway.

Ants have made a good call.

When will Fitzroy Reds be letting the bigfooty forum know who missed out on its senior coaching job? Doubt anyone who REALLY is in the know at BT will be saying much. Its probably not appropriate as the people who were interviewed will have ties with other clubs. Its fun to speculate though and I have already named a few people who I think would have been sounded out.

Well, if it helps - I missed out on the senior gig. :( :p

Fair enough - it's just a slow couple of months we're in the midst of thus far, and I'd rather talk about other clubs than my own. :D
 
Bad luck Scribe. Maybe next time.

What's all this stuff about a rivalry round?

Thanks - but I didn't actually put in for it. ;)
As for Rivalry Round, I think its a VAFA media beat up designed to cash in on the absence of AFL footy on 10/5. Rivalries within the VAFA abound, but they can often be based on the most tenuous premises.

I personally am looking forward to the return of the Latte Cup between Prahran and Fitzroy. Rather partial to the extract of coffee beans I am.

Here is a rumour... is it true that David Teasdale is going to play for Old Mentone this year???

can anyone confirm this?
 
Why would be great for d1 if Teasdale plays for OM's but would like to see paperwork lodged with VAFA. Other rumours include him playing with Hampton Rovers and Beaumauris.

Any chance of Port Adelaide rookie Nathan Batsanis returning to BT next year?
 
Not sure if it was 1999 but pretty sure we beat them in the final.


Surely u would remember:

C U: "Can anyone from Old Ess confirm if the Leask playing now was the one playing in 1999? How old would he be?"

C U: "Thanks Wonderful. Played against him in a final in 99 (and another guy Podger I think). Top bloke. Was just interested to know if it was the same guy coz I didn't realise he was so young back then. Cheers."

C U: "Last time I played in D1 there were 2 full-forwards (Bomber James from BT and A Rosen from Ajax) who both kicked over 100 goals, and both lined up in the GF opposite each other. Now thats "some very good full forwards"!..
 
Have not been on in a while. Very slow so far boys. Lets start talking about teams and thoughts on next year. New recruits. Not rumours actuall signings.

South Districts have not got a few at this stage. tHere little forward pocket Jack Cronan back and firing after an injury riddled year he is looking for a massive year and expect Dean Phillips to have a big year. Also a chance for a few young Port Colts players to come across but thats in its early stages.

I think the districts will be around the 4 this year.

yeah 99 or 2000, something like that would be right..and your point would be what?

Do you think all of the D1 thread are interested in the fact that about a year ago I asked someone from OE if Leask is still playing? Wow. I must be dealing with a brain surgeon here. Move on pal. please, get over yourself.

Still early, Big Deal...but i tend to agree. The last few seasons have seen teams carrying their momentum through D1 , and playing finals (even getting promoted). SMD definitely have the momentum.

Also, we've seen the relegated teams tending to struggle in D1 (Banyule, Therry, Parade). It will be interesting to see if the Reds can reverse this recent trend.

We'll be doing our best to reverse that trend and are aiming to make the finals. That's about as wild as the statements will get from the BSO, which will make a nice change from some BigFooty posts in 2007 !!
 
I would certainly be hoping our 2008 is more akin to the 2007 experienced by the relegated Hampton Rovers (straight back up), than the hapless Old Paradians (down and down again).
