Younger brother of Geelong listed player Daniel, of course recruited last year from Central after playing soming impressive reserves football in 2009 for the Doggies.

Apparently goes alright does young Troy. Well done to him and all the lads selected, good luck in the carnival...

Do we know who the coach is of the side?

Good luck to the boys and great from my view point to see 9 North players in the squad.

Come on Big Phil surely an accomplished media man like yourself knows who the coach is
-A hint is he was a former Doggie junior who then played a bit of League footy

Woohoo, another cousins son playing state footy, hopefully Geelong can snare Troy too! Not suprising to see North dominate the squad.

ANy feedback from North lads on George Hannaford?

I'm assuming Kybybolite isn't a bustling metropolis but it is where Jack Trengove played his footy before moving to Adelaide.
Could be a good story in the future if he makes it in the AFL with him and Jack from a relatively unknown place.

Glenelg's Andrew Bradley (this weeks SANFL Rising Star) also hails from there
Must be some good stuff in the water over that way

Stu McCully hails from Kyby too, also think it was the former stamping ground of John Seebohm.

John Seebohm was from Mount Burr. That is a fair way from Kyby. Stephen Copping was from near Kyby though.

The key word in my post about Seebs was "think".
