Totally agree
can’t blame players for wanting to leave at all when they don’t have a coach in place
Especially when they had a coach in place that was respected by the players. And they happily let him leave...

Apparently Brighton President emailed all SFL clubs last week basically saying hands off and that they would not clear any registered or contracted players and that anyone wanting to leave would be forced to sit out season 2022.
he also took aim at I assume Lindisfarne and or New Norfolk as finals sides going around offering heaps of money to their players to leave.
No names mentioned in the email but it’s obvious Lindisfarne are offering big money to Lewis Johnson, talking $400 plus which you would have to wonder how they keep under the salary cap
obviously Blackburn leaving but if you assume they would have told the SFL they spent close to the cap this year how can they justify adding in Green, Havea and Lewis Johnson and remain under the cap( less what they paid Blackburn)
Havea has always shopped himself around in the $350 plus bracket, Green didn’t come cheap and if your offering $400 for SLJ will the SFL have the balls to take a look at them?
Raggers probably not going to the two blues for peanuts either.

forgot him
Yeah absolutely he’d be on a few hundred per game also
if the average Joe can see this why can’t the league

Heard Brady Hayden has gone to NH as well. That’s 4 of their top 5 in the b&f gone? They need to fix this quick, it’s getting very ugly

I honestly can’t see them getting up this year! Players leaving, no coach, president worried more about what other clubs are doing… it’s been a rabble out there since 2013.
Maybe some of the ODFA clubs can use the ground as a training base??
Hayden is a quality talent. He should be playing tsl. This is their problem, all of their talent are leaving.
I honestly don't know why some of these people just don't get it. If you aren't under contract, or owe money or property, they can't be held. Brighton have pulled this shit for years to refuse clearances. The league needs to immediately grant any that Brighton refuses for non legit reasons.
Wayne Lamb to be Brightons coach
I often wondered if he might get a gig there.
He was (a few years back) coaching one of their junior teams in a grand final at North Hobart, one of my friends' son was playing in that team.
Last coached at Senior level in 2000 when he finished up his three year term at Cygnet as playing coach.

That’s the good thing about rumors is they are just that, brighton still remain with out a senior coach with the last two candidates (including lamb) pulling out. Unless a miracle happens they will start preseason with out one ….. hard to see what their options now are, maybe should have just gave webster and daly what they wanted.
Whoever gets it is hardly their preferred choice. Wonder if they actually have anyone keen... the reserves coach might end up having to step up to the plate.
Wonder what their list is like with a few moving on. Will be interesting to see when their training starts.
Sorell and Claremont looking improved which is great. Sorell might be able to crack into the top 5 this year. Haven't heard much out of the TCA. Hobart seem to be pretty quiet.

I’ve noticed they have been recruiting and posting on their Facebook page their new colts players by saying “new addition to the colts team etc…” it’s awesome that the colts coach is actively recruiting, but surely you just put new recruit?? Obviously there is a clear divide at the club… every young player has the aspiration to play senior football
Yeah poorly posted if thats the case. Wouldn't they all be just senior club players?

Do we know if they are any closer of getting a Senior coach? (sorry for sounding like a broken record)
Who would of thought that Claremont would be closer to a flag than Brighton, given how the two sides went last year
