Wayne Petterd played for the Hobart Tigers between 1978-1991 and was a Premiership player at Hobart in 1980 and 1990 and part of the 1980 Winfield Statewide Cup premiership team for the Tigers.
I was there for his last game in the 1991 TFL Elimination Final against the old Burnie Hawks at Devonport Oval which Hobart lost by 44-points.
Played country football for a brief time before taking on the job of coaching Hobart in mid-1993 after Greg Lane resigned.
He spent three & a bit unsuccessful seasons as coach before resigning midway through 1996 after a dreadful loss to Launceston at the TCA Ground.
I think he went to play for or coach Lindisfarne after that for a season, then headed off to Queensland the following year.
I vaguely remember Ricky, he would've only been a kid when his old man was at Hobart but yeah.
Ricky was signed from Broadbeach apparently.
Wayne's daughter and obv Rickys sister is married to Clarence P'ship player Trent Whitelaw... good blood lines there

Most likely, I don't really follow the player movements that much!
The thing that annoys me about the media is that they try and claim them as their own. Like Nick Riewoldt for instance, the media claimed him as a Tasmanian when he played at Southport before he was drafted.
There's a AFL List that will come out, and where it will say clubs, it'll probably show Tas Mariners/North Hobart for Garland
None of this Wynyard junior crap!
Garland Attended Newtown High from Year 7 Onwards. I know because i was his peer support Leader. Has been playing at North Hobart Since U/13? So no he didn't move down to become part of the system and is a legitimate hobartian.
On another note for us Northerners, Luke Crane, former G'Town boy has just won his third successive B and F with the Zilmere Eagles in the QAFL. Eagles were runners up this year as well. Only his size keeping him of an AFL list i reckon.

In some of the old AFL list handbooks, they used to list Paul Hudson as being drafted from Glenorchy!
Even though he never played a game for the Magpies in his life, I think he might've played his very early junior days with them, but played underage football for Hobart then debuted as a 15-year old in the seniors for Hobart at Queenborough in April 1986.
On the other side of the coin, Alatair Lynch originally trialled at Queenstown, was discarded then played for Wynyard before playing TFL with Hobart, and was always listed as being only from Hobart in his prevoius club listing.
Heard a whisper about Goodwin tossing it in last week sometime, my source said it had something to do with the Geappens, not sure what he meant, but anyway...
Geappen,Walker,and Bolton were rumoured to be going to Kingborough prior to signing with North Hobart. I was told this several weeks ago, by aKingborough player.They will now have to look elseware. This should make some clubs nervous. as they will be headhunting a new coach.In some of the old AFL list handbooks, they used to list Paul Hudson as being drafted from Glenorchy!

I would have thought that with the non availability of coaches at this time of year, given that most clubs are in pre-season, would make kingborough nervous more then anyone. Can be very upsetting to a sides training to not have a coach at this time of year. If they don't sign someone before christmas i would be looking for players to jump ship.

Cameron Blight has just quit as Smithton coach in the NTFL and intends to return to Hobart. Being a former Kingston player id like to put my money on him coaching the Tigers.

I just get annoyed with the Advocate dribble from Messrs Tapp and Smith, that's all
Heard a whisper Burnie is again on struggle street player wise with only two players turning up to training on Friday and eight turning up on the Wednesday for there first run. Has anyone heard how other clubs numbers are going?

YES me too but the PREz may be looking for a bigger NAmE
The Examiner reported that a few of the ex Burnie players who went to Penguin are looking at going back. Keogh was an interesting signing though, as he was very unpopular with many at North, and was the reason they had an exodus of players a couple of years ago.
Was that in todays Examiner Big H? I can tell you that Ben Hayes and Travis Brown are definatly not going back. Doubt Jason Ling will go back. Elijah Taylor who has always played with Penguin has allegadly signed with Burnie

i heard hayes has been offered u/19's at penguin and brown is deciding between devonport and launceston. You would have thought that penguin could have learnt from burnies previous mistake and signed bourn back to be coach!!! i do have to agree though that i heard from a source ( dockers player) that only 7 have been at training. im sure things will pick up......... not that i hope they do
