Heard the opposite tbh. They’ll do this year but don’t want it full time next year.

2 disaster coaches for panther. They’d want to get this one right.

Interesting supporters are now posting on Eltham Facebook page asking for answers but no one wants to repply from the club in regards to the Senior Coach departure.

I've watched night games at both Banyule and Eltham this year and Id say both sets of light are not up to standard to night play games. One wasn't any better than the other.

agree - Elthams lights are not good if there is any fog off the creek

Seriously you should write for the Herald Sun. (Click bate specialist)
The coach is not seeking reappointment. Not "the Club has sacked the coach".

Fitzroy Stars Football & Netball Club - PRESS RELEASE: Coaching announcement

The Fitzroy Stars Football & Netball Club regrettably announce that Senior Coach, Hayden Heta will not be pursuing a contract extension for the 2020 season, after a strong 2019 season.

The decision was not made lightly by Mr. Heta, who has a young family and is embarking on a new career. “I have a young family and being ever present with my kids will be my focus moving forward. Football has provided me with countless opportunities over the past 20 years… It’s time to have a rest, take a breath and spend quality time with my family and friends.”

The Fitzroy Stars Football & Netball Club Board wishes to express its deep and sincere appreciation to Mr Heta for his strong commitment and tireless efforts in coaching our players and strengthening the Club. In 12 months of coaching Mr. Heta recruited sixteen new players to the Fitzroy Stars, which has been essential to the Club. As a result, the 2019 season has been a very successful year for the Fitzroy Stars, enabling the Club to challenge the top teams and push for finals.
Despite resigning as coach, Mr Heta will continue to be actively involved in the club moving forward and play a key role in assisting and mentoring players.
“We wish Hayden all the best with his future endeavors, support his decision, and acknowledge his strong commitment to both Football and the Fitzroy Stars. We’re very glad Hayden will continue to be involved in the Club moving forward, to ensure a smooth transition into 2020.” - Simon Minton-Connell (CEO)
The Fitzroy Stars Football & Netball Club will be calling for Expressions of Interest for the role of Senior Coach, in the near future.

Yeah how unprofessional not to reply to random Facebook comments explaining why a coach was sacked.

I agree with what you are saying, but dont spin the usual rubbish of the best interests of the club then go quiet. I understand the whole thing but these days everything is social media so if the club come out and tell the truth there is no issues from anyone. Good luck to next coach I say.

True if they are randoms, but if it's actually recognised club folk then something should be done, afterall why set up a social media platform or take membership/sponsorship dollars if not going to represent?

Or perhaps it's like other levels of our sport, so the narrative can be driven and controlled to suit ha ha!!!

 

[Local Punchline]

Stars by 12 pts
Banyule by 80 pts
Creek by 24 pts
Thommo by 6 pts & confirm finals spot.

Again my mail was he wanted a contract extension which the club refused and the whole thing blew up. If that was the case I see almost no other choice for the club.

Thanks, again though its heresay. But anyway no pressure on the incoming coach, Premierhip or the commitee will get rid of you.

They were in division one when he took the job.... don’t forget the real facts

Fair point, but need to be realistic sometimes. All I'm saying is that if they dont win premiership next year he will be outsed as well. LOL

If people are that concerned then pick up the phone and call the pres for an explanation or go down to a game and ask the question over a beer. No organisation should have to reply to comments on facebook. Its easy running a club while sitting on the couch.

With that list they should be in Div 1. definitely under achieving.

The only coach chris freeman had an influence on was super and that was because he was toxic to that footy club

 

[toxic]

I resent that

 

[MLloyd]

That’s fair enough. what is Chris Freemans official position at Eltham? Board member, sponsor or parent? Why did his kids head to PH if he was influential in Supers departure? Doesnt make a whole lot of sense to axe the coach then nick of too. I think you’ll find we’ve found a problem at Eltham and I’d be looking at influencing his departure.

It actually can be with Counterwise... Stay tuned.

Do we know why Mario Bandera got the sack from Eltham? I still don't.

Google him. Might give you answers

Ah yes I remember now. 'That' incident. A shame as Eltham were going alright, sure not playing consistent footy but better than the present

Probably similar to why he got sacked from Epping or Powelltown (after half a season)

A ex d1 coach can only get a gig at a bottom 3 division 5 VAFA club says all you need to know.

Will be interesting where he ends up next season. I think Old Ivanhoe is his junior team but yeah it is a long way back from Eltham
