No worries mate
You asked on the new coaches thread about the other RMFL coaches.
Matthew Dent is at Tailem - the club was terribly short of players last year, with a few decent recruits this year it will give a better indication of Denty as a coach. From what i hear, hes held in good regard by the club and players.
Damian Cross at Mypolonga - hes coached in the Mallee league before, and did reasonably well from what i can tell. Played at Ramblers the last year or so, and Mypo is his first coaching stint in the RMFL although i think hes applied for other jobs in the past. Will be interesting to see how he goes at the Tigers.
Tony Fielke at Imps - has a great minor round record, but unfortunately for him and his club they have lost 3 or 4 grand finals under his coaching. Unfortunatley for him he may be (unfairly) judged on that alone.
Anthony Weyland at Ramblers - has done a good effort at Ramblers to an extent, moulding some good juniors with quality recruits. Should have at least played in a grand final in last 2 years, and arguably should have won one. I dont know about internal politics at Ramblers, but who knows if they dont make a g/f this year he could be in trouble??
Sam Mahoney at Jervois - done very well as a player at Jervois last few years, but will be wanting to carve out some coaching success of his own now that Tim Richards has moved on from the club. His player "connections" have been invaluable.
Lee Adams at Mannum - did well last year at Mannum, especially early on in the season, and they did well to defeat Mypo in the Elimination final. Hes well respected within the RMFL.
You may know more than me about Jamie Gibbs at Meningie - although i know hes very well respected within the league. Do you know of any player movements at the Bears, topcat??
