Mitch Quinn stepping down as captain/coach after 1 season. Travis Wordsworth to take it over from him. What’s happened there?

PAOC are on the look out for another coach again next season.

Looks like Hooch is continuing to leave a trail of destruction in his wake. This time, though, he's returning to old clubs to do it again. Look out Walkerville, Goodwood and Glenunga.

Just had a look on the PAOC facebook page, doesn't seem like they are too upset with him:

Sam Turner has informed the PAOCCC committee that he will be stepping down as head coach due to health reasons. The committee and the entire PAOCCC community would like to express our deepest gratitude for his unwavering dedication and leadership over the past two seasons.

Sam first took on the role of coach 20 years ago, guiding the club for four seasons and leading us from A2 to A1, where we remained for an incredible 17 years. When we found ourselves back in A2, Sam returned without hesitation, once again steering us straight back to A1—a testament to his coaching expertise and passion. Despite the challenges of this past season, his influence has ensured our continued place in the competition.

Sam’s impact on our club is immeasurable, and his legacy is undeniable. We wish him all the very best and hope to see him, Leanne, Sammy, and James around the club for many years to come.

Not sure you should be slagging him off if his departure is health related either.

Hooch also took Walkerville to an A1 GF, and Goodwood aren't exactly struggling post Hooch's time with them, the club is flying with 5 teams playing in Grand Finals two weekends ago and their A grade winning the A1 flag for the third time on the trot.

Perhaps it's just Glenunga who struggled with what Hooch brought to the table.

Have to back Trader up here. The guy has a very good record pretty much everywhere but Glenunga. Not convinced them not being great is his fault. Maybe if they'd listened to him they'd not have their A Grade finishing 9th in B2.

You'd be a very brave man to question Trader's knowledge or integrity.

Apologies if wrong but did come from a player at the club.

Is that confirmed?

Would be a pretty handy incision to that side with some good young players, especially if they get Clayfield and he firing together.

I wonder if this turns out to be as accurate as PPP's previous post...

If your referring to the Para Hills Comment, no it is not accurate.

Yeah, it was a little dig at PPP over the para hills comment which is clearly wrong.
But with that said, I do believe his mail on Benton is correct, as I too have heard he’ll be at the Reds come October.
