Now this is the silly season so much (most) of what I have heard is unsubstantiated rumour but Rowe has stepped down and the whisper is a that a crew (as in a head coach and a couple of assistants) with links to an EFL club have been approached to take it over. A name mentioned but I won’t post here. Mail is that the rumoured player signings was what got the coaching team interested however I have no knowledge of who they may be or if in fact there is any truth in it. I’m sure others from Carey would know far more then me. And yes the mail is Summers leaving UB but again that was just some scuttlebutt from EP last Sunday.

C’mon surely I’m not the only one who has heard rumours.

Rooster – what of the rumoured retirements at Diary Bell? And anyone from Beaumaris prepared to comment on the Jason Blake rumour?
Not from the Sharks but I believe Jason has indicated he will complete his footy career there. However, that's a year or two away. Same applies to Luke Ball and Old Xavs.

Going to a Premier B team I believe.

What about Gallagher at UB? Got him onboard as a coach, thinking it would only be a matter of time before he pulled the boots on. Guess what? he held firm and didnt play. I am sure he would be looking back in the VFL for some $$$$$$. Thoughts anyone??

Heard the same - from one of the proposed assistants. The prospective coach coached Blackburn two years ago. Not sure it was because of the potential signings. They were under the impression that they didn't have a chance of getting it. Looks like they do.

Seems like we have heard the same mail. No sure if they conducted interviews or even advertised but a Blackburn crew was what I heard also. No idea if it’s on the money or not. Was one of several rumours doing the rounds at EP last Sunday.
 


Maybe I miss heard but I’m sure someone mentioned that Summers was going to play for Swinburne Uni. Now surely that can’t be right. No disrespect but he will fair dinkum take the P155 at that level.

Rumoured retirements at De La? Sorry JJ since seasons end I’m not really in the loop. No doubt like most clubs we will have a few but could not say who.

You've been listening to the same people as me Rooster. I find it hard to believe too. Stranger things have happened I suppose. Several clubs have had a crack at him, St Bedes being one.

While on St Bedes, any truth in the rumour S Lawrence will be there in some capacity or other?

Gold Briza!

And that the year after a St kevin's boy coached the AFL premiership!

Por old xavs...they needed to have some wins this week as they failed to win the seniors, the APS (10 years now), the ressies, the unders....at least they can cling to some old boys playing in a flag!

My reports are further along the bay:rolleyes: Phil and the lads happy at the 'coin', however needs to be careful when he puts his references down:confused: .

Quality coach but needs to be more inclusive of a community club environment:eek:

wow, no post for 24 hours and Briza and Stalker poster within 8 minutes of each other...and they agree....strange;)

Haha, he obviously has some Brian love going, a little odd but better than some other w ankers on this forum.

Look out for him to reappear as soon as I push post.
 
Such a funny post. Carey like many ammos clubs struggle hard to field four teams. Through generous support of sponsors and individuals they manage this. And also manage to pay for a good coach.
Carey do not pay any players, now or ever. Carey do attempt to lure players by offering them opportunities fostered by the growing Carey network. Something all strong clubs do.
 
Andy wasn't going to coach in 2013 as far back as 2011. Lots of family and business stuff on the go. Ripping bloke!
Club loves him. Shame he didn't snatch a flag, but got pretty close against a mighty Collegians outfit. Legend!

Can you tell me the last Xavs coach not to win a flag?

I know Michael Scholly was the last Xavs coach not to make the finals
 
Ex-Saint slams the CV on the committee table at two clubs last week with promise of 2 players - interesting times.

Damned if you do, damned if you don't.

Cheers

DG-Man I have nothing against clubs offering jobs, even if they are getting paid a little more or bending the rules slightly. But I know 3 players personally that had offers made by Carey or sponsors of Carey, one of 1 which ended up playing for Carey that were offered significant amounts of cash, one being over $30k as that was an offer of slightly better than he was getting elsewhere. You can go on and on that they dont pay players because no one from any club is going to come out and say that they do but i happens at a lot of clubs in all grades and it 100% happens at Carey.

If I had a dollar for every time I read a post like this I'd be rich. I know it doesn't happen at Carey. Your numbers are laughable. If only you knew what went on at an Ammos clubs like Carey. The meetings with helpful supporters and sponsors help get the teams on the park. That's it. You show me someone willing to part with even a couple of thousand dollars of their own and ill show you the Easter bunny. It's funny what you can wish to believe or what you choose to think is true.
Name a name of either player or generous sponsor. I need an off season laugh.
 
Didn't the VAFA pump their chest a couple of years ago by appointing a grand investigator to look into all these things?. Either he has very little work to do, is just a window dresser or all clubs have cleared the decks.

As i have said all along, have all A & B Grade players sign a statutory declaration prior to season commencement that they are not playing for financial benefit (and if it is a job related link then they need to declare it) - just like drug testing if they have nothing to hide then all will be happy to make sure it is a level playing field. It may also find out the clubs who may not be doing the right thing by protesting its implementation - just so damn easy its not funny

It will strip all the innuendo and rumor from the situation - or maybe VAFA HO just wish it to continue as it brings better players into the comp.

Cheers
