If your talking about there A grade they seem to make the finals every year but never go any higher then 4th or 5th. I read on here their coach this year is Dave Evans??? Shane Lynch had a go last year but again i read not very popular at the club with players or the commitee. Adam Klun is player their again who is a very strong player they also have a bloke by the name of Shaun Smith whos a good player. Not sure if they have alot more in the side, Nick smart has been good over the years but think he may have gone els where not sure if to play footy or chasing other dreams. Lamb seems to kick alot of goals and then they've got the Tanners who are handy when there not screaming the house down. Chris Shee is awesome when hes on but pretty inconsistant. I think the B grade and U/17s suck and U15s are pretty good
Cheers mate, my brother had been playing with Adam Klun a bit before he went to town to play, I think i remember the Tanners, pretty small fellas aren't they?
As for Nick Smart, what a classic, i went to school with that lad.
I remember when we had an u/12 carnival down at Uraidla and we were losing to Gumeracha, some bloke took a mark over Nick and he through the guy down and jumped on his back like he would on a horse. My old man who was umpiring at the time had to send Nick off while trying not to piss himself laughing! Funny times.
