Crezza didn’t make a GF, but, still think he was a pretty good coach during my time involved in the O&M. Apologies for not being around since the early 60’s

correct .. Lester was about to go into a world title fight so when his coachs etc saw Ablett belting him with big powefful punches so they pulled the pin ..Nothing quite tops your “Ablett Sr was beating up Lester Ellis so sparring had to be stopped” quote though Stuyd. That was one for the ages

You obviously are not aware of Abletts fighting ability ,, I could tell you some facts about 3 backyard blues Ablett had many years ago ,, frightening ..
But lets leave it alone hey
Theres no early 1960s coaches in my list ,, the earliest is Neville Hogan whom acheived much success in the 1970s
And I did not say Crezza was not a good coach ,, Im just commenting hes no where near th elevel of these guys

That's crazy a legend
I just named of off the top,of my head ,,, I agree Tossol was great as was Martin Cross, Jeff Gieschen and Craig Ednie ,, but imo not quite in the league of the guys I named ,, once again,, its my opinion only

Crossy was very astute
Got the Best out of everyone he had.
Similar to what Broomhead is doing now.
After having time to think more about it yes I woud include Peter Tossol up there ,, and by memory he was a great O & M Coach as well in the VCFL championships

Caruso doesn’t have the resume as some of these other names tossed about, but he was very highly respected as a senior coach, smart, firm, direct, well spoken and could give a spray. Probably unlucky in the end not to quite get there in the O&M ranks, that’s football.
yes mate ,, he was a very good coach imo ,, had great resuts for Benalla ,, and a gun player

Study1, I am curious about your Ablett backyard story? Gaz and I wound up playing table tennis in a garage in Myrtleford, must’ve been 1982, the neighbours wild German Shepherd jumped a 7ft fence and started trying to maul us, long story short, Gaz restrained it, threw the thing on his shoulders and jumped the fence and returned the dog. Vertical leap, never seen anything like it, he was from another planet. He was very reserved, but if you got in his space he’d let you know, we got on well.
I'm picturing Geoff and gaz playing ping pong haha
I'm surprised gazs mustang wasn't in the garage

Ian Wales may recall the night, will be interested if study1 has heard the yarn, we were on push bikes that we picked up from the local. Great night.

He used to throw the Wild Pigs around like they were mice so throwing a German Shepherd over his shoulder would be nothing Laz

I find it strange there hasn’t been anything in the Media confirming Creswell at JFO.
Plenty of talk it’s happening but nothing been announced from the Club
South Cairns into granny probably waiting for that one
