I have just been informed by email that Chris Brown will be the U/18's coach for 2009. He has a proven track record with the junior coaching and of course coached the last U/17's flag.

Congratulations to Chris, I'm sure he will do a good job, the Double Blues have had a strong Underage program for a few years now, well done.

What about the Magoos job now that Stormin Norman is taking over the league ? Will it be Donald Dickie or Barnaby French perhaps ???

Big Phil a name i have heard is Seamus Maloney, the 2002 premiership captain who has been coaching Imperials in the Sunraysia League.

Congratulations.

No appointment yet in the Reserves.

Maybe Frenchy

I always respected Seamus as a player, would give 100% effort for the club and the jumper...

Would be a good appointment, or as sturtpeter would put it.... "appropriate"

Have the assistant coaches been named for the U/18's yet?

the coaches are having a meeting tomorrow night.

can you please post who the assistants will be Barto?

As soon as I know something concrete, sure.

I predict that Sturt's u18's will be in the top 3 next year.

Not a big call, considering they were the U17 premiers this year and should have the same players available in the U18 competition.

Top two my prediction.

Paul Jarvis will coach the Sturt reserves in 2009 after knocking back the U18s position

Good luck to Paul, he'll be a good coach.

That now means that both Glenelg and Sturt's League and Reserves teams will be coached by ex-West Adelaide players.

When you take our drafted players into account, I'd say we've been a bit too generous to other clubs instead of ourselves over the years

That is possibly the greatest news that planet earth has ever heard, this is no doubt the most brilliant appointment since JFK was elected into American presidency.

Truly appropriate

Not detecting any sarcasm here at all and we fully agree.

Paul was a dependable player for us after leaving Westies.

Good luck!

You keep burning 'em, we'll keep taking 'em...

Sorry guys!

Yet to be officially confirmed by the SFC.

Does anyone know what Donald Dickies role is at Sturt,he was an assistant in some capacity there last year wasnt he or was that somewhere else?
