EDFL Premier Division

[BlueJet]

Word on the street is that Shannon Grant is Greenvale's new coach from next season for two years.

Confirmed

The role of a playing coach would be a tough gig for anyone in the current EDFL Premier League, I would imagine Veszpremi would have to control his on field behaviour a little better if was to even attempt the role of a playing coach.

Carl on the Corner tells me that Sherman has had several interviews with numerous country clubs in an attempt to get a coaching role of his own.

60K that is serious coin for an ex AFL player who has never coached. Must be lots of money in cows!!

Heard on SEN tonight Mal Michael to be assistant at Sunshine. Barney from Bright said he will be joined by Johns, Toy & Mango...

Damian Cupido, who played and coached aboriginal side Rumbalara in the Murray league to a premiership this year, will be on 90k next season. That's almost what Fevola gets at Yarra, 5k a game.

What is the world coming too Hank?? Madness

Unbelievably ridiculous if correct. How can any country/suburban club afford that sort of coin? Tatttslotto win?

Guys, this is like the old theory of economics- supply and demand. Whilst clubs continue to pay $5k sign on & $2k a game, footballers will come and play. You can't knock a player for shopping himself around. The edfl and other leagues have created this monster and have no one else to blame. My club spoke to a player Monday night and he didn't sign with us, said he would think about it. We all knew he was going to club "A" on Tuesday. Sound familiar? Point is, we the clubs have ourselves to blame by agreeing to pay the first sign on, the first to pay a player 1k per game. Will it end? I doubt it. We in local footy follow afl so I will put it out there that in the next couple of years a player coming back from afl will be offered a 5 year contract and I reckon a club like Greenvale under Bruce would be the first to do it.

Houli got a 5 year contract to come to Abers off Coburg's list, so I don't think Bruce will be the first to do it when it's already been done by J.L

AFL Victoria do not recognise contracts longer than 2 seasons. So even if a player signs a 5 year contract and thinks that he is locked in for that long, it's only valid for 2

They haven't got it right for all theses years, gotta tell YA this year will be no different

Seriously they don't recruit good character or quality long term players

Name one for me?????

The sooner they get the internal model right and focus on developing their own the better

Blake, patak, hislops, johns, cubillo, Davis, reimers, as examples

Sorry fellas cant give u the names. Now that I know they are obviously shopping themselves around my club will be making contact with them.

 

[ItsAllAboutMe]

Some serious coin is going to be freed up with the losses at Abers so I would expect some big names to be coming in.

Also seems like Spotswood and Sunshine are going to step up and try to take on Deer Park, good on the WRFL sides, everyone was whinging that Deer Park were ruining the league, but when these clubs get there acts together, find funds and recruit well the whole standard of the comp will rise.

Would Brock McLean be one of the names, Abers junior who is unlikely to be playing AFL and still with plenty to offer.

Other delisted AFL players that would make sense could be Brent Maloney, Campbell Brown, Brett Goodes,

Abers have spoken to David Rodan.

 

[1992edfl2012]

Northern Saints still pretty quiet regarding their coaching situation. Word is that Nat Caruso just wants to play and not be a player coach. Problem is, would any decent coach for prem division not have a job right now already?

You sure?

Houli came to Abers in 09' with Dean Rioli after playing some games in 08' with Keilor Park.

Keilor were into him prior to 09' however he went with Abers.

 

[Prophetic]

Jeez looking at Shannon Grant's CV Greenvale fans would have to be very pleased. Great get. You would no doubt have pretty high hopes bluejet?
