Re: Official GVFL thread

Have heard norman will front up again, aloi is unlikely (perhaps going to Greenvale with his brother) and learmonth is gone too, he will be coaching Darley in the Ballarat footy league.

Any feedback about Gary Learmonth?
Play alright? Good coach? Tightarse who won't buy a drink?

Hey Boss Was there ant effort at all to entice Hilton to coach. He has played under some of the best in the game.

Like Geishen & Frawley?

Hilton would make a good coach though.

I doubt it very much considering he stated he didnt have the time to even play footy next year. Coaching takes up far more time then playing head. Im sure we will find a coach soon enough.

In reference to Hilts playing under some of the best in the game, I think not. Frawley and Gieschen were absolute jokes of coaches. You would probably wouldnt learn to much under them.

I was thinking Mathews.

Was he at Brisbane when Matthews took over?

I was thinking Mathews.

Hilton would have had a quick conversation with Leigh at Brisbane airport as Rory was collecting his boarding pass to go back to Melbourne and Leigh waiting at the baggage claim.

But I knew you were thinking of Matthews

97/98. I thought he was, sorry wrong. Northey in those years and merrit took over half way through his 2nd year Mathews took over in 99. Northey might be the pick out of the 3 of them.

So that means he has played under Northery, Merret, Walls, Geischen, Frawley and Wallace. The best one I would say would be Wallace without a doubt.

So my opening comment that he played under some of the best was close . Should of read some of the worst

Have to agree there head.

Northey has the best record of any of those coaches, including Wallace.

Re: Official GVFL thread

Any word on who those Adelaide boys are, or which club there from !?

Speaking to a bloke in Adelaide who said Nathan Bell is coming back to the swans and bringing 4 others.

Re: Official GVFL thread

My info says the tail is attempting to wag the dog. Tends to happen there a bit.

The Mansfield boys were on a their footy trip to Perth and ran into Jock at the Casino at 4pm and said as far as he knew he was still coaching. Although they hadn't been in contact for a fortnight

Interesting news that !? heard a whisper that he had re-signed w his home club of Tantanoola in the mid s/east league (minor league below the WBfl) who he won a flag w this yr and he also won the leagues b&f.He certainly will be a good pick-up & welcome back for the swans if he does come back, he's one of those players that won't take long to step up and re-ajust (spelling) especially knowing that he's played there before.

Who is Nathan Bell? What type of player?

Re: Official GVFL thread

from what i've heard they include Bailey, pemberton, douglas, jake annderson, van reit, reid and colbert

I've heard Bailey will go. Jake Anderson will apparently do a pre season with Hawthorn. Reid and Colbert are supposed to be good mates so will either go or stay together. I've also heard Schottner is looking at coaching options outside the club. Have heard nothing on Van Reit.

Schotty captain of the club, newly inducted life member so Id be surprised on that one Xander

I think he won their b&f the year before the one just gone. Handy tall on-baller type from memory.

I would not at all be surprised if Shotty's first coaching stint turned him off the caper for good.

Interesting. Where did you hear this? Also know that Pilling is definitely gone and the Great Saad Saad might get rookie listed at Essendon. Not looking good for a 3peat if these rumours are true. Can we entice fat back pocket back to confirm/deny these rumours?

Reckon FBP went out on a high and has retired from Big Footy.

What about Luke Jackson, Cameron Ramsay and that man Rattray - will they be back in 2007 not to mention some handy two's players like Dom Russo just itching for a regular berth. What will young O'Keefe do if he dont get back on the Bombers list surely he'd be a chance to head home to Kings Park also???

LATEST: GV star to coach Numurkah

By Steve King
October 31 2006
Shepparton News

Tatura star Linc Wellington will coach Murray Football League club Numurkah next season after the Blues pulled off a major recruiting coup this week.

Wellington, 27, signed with the club on Monday night after a decorated career with the Bulldogs.

"I've been thinking about coaching a fair bit,'' Wellington, who played 96 games with Tatura after making his debut in 2002, including the 2003 Goulburn Valley league premiership, said.

"It was a good offer and I'm pretty excited.''

I know a few blokes down at Kings Park that seem to be in the know - but you all know what 2nd and 3rd hand information is like? Saad would be crazy not to "jump" at a chance form essendon, but if that falls through, why wouldn't he stay at Seymour? They treat him like a God down there dont they?
