well you couldnt say that Bridgewater has amazing changerooms anyways i reckon the boys would rather get changed on the boundary Or they could set up in the gymnasium that they have there. teams would get half of a basketball court to warm up in which is a hell of alot better than bridgewater FC's rooms,
personally i would rather tackle a bit of wind rather than a Swamp! they should sell boots designated to when people play at bridgewater. they would be the gum boot variety
perhaps if you did that it might even up the scores just a little bit for you and your almighty bridgewater brigade that we hear so much about, but EVERY year the result is the same.

Need a new coach AGAIN i am hearing? What a magnificent football club!

Couple questions -
When was the last time Bridgwater participated in finals footy?
How many A grade coaches have you had in the last 15 years?


hi speccy
honestly i thought you had squirmed away to the slums of the southern thread for good but i should have known a brainless gutless piece of work like yourself would once again rear his ugly head. you impressed us all so much with your great knowledge of the hfl and your "heroic" tipping earlier in the year... please give me a damn spell!!!
as for your couple of question put a damn cork in it there have been many great names on the coaching honour role at towers road over the last 15 years and i am eagerly await the appointment of our next mentor. we have been slightly starved of finals success in recent years but this should make season 2011 extra memorable.
RAIDERS till I DIE!!!

PS still laugh myself to sleep most nights with your embarrassing round 4 tipping effort.


What a cr@p answer, i look forward to Bridgewater providing me with some more serious comic relief next season. At what stage does a club lock itself into the room of mirrors and have a good hard look at itself?

On the ovals - if the rain keeps up play it at Milang, if rain not too high play it at Hahndorf should be fine with no footy on it for a month and is a great spot even if not big.


Don't be surprised if Kersbrook gets it, which is it in good nick. And with Maccelsfield hosting bigger Country Div crowds than the Central Div over the last couple of years, that could be a surprise too.

hi fabio
you clearly do not have the great experience in the business world that i posses because your little cornerstone suggestion would be an absolute logistical nightmare...
not only do you want the grand final sides getting changed on the boundary line or in a school gymnasium hundreds of metres from the oval.... have you stopped to think about the cost involved in setting up canteens, car parking, bar facilities, not to mention trying to find volunteers from the HFL community with no affiliation to the school to provide all these services?
then there is the little matter of the school premises being designated a complete dry zone. so unless you want the crowd sucking on soda water and sipping on hot cocoa you will have to think again... so on behalf of the HFL community i nominate you to be the man to present the premiership side with a nice expensive magnum of non-alcoholic champagne!!! your suggestion makes me sick to the stomach.

also keep your opinions on the BRFC to yourself... not that anyone cares... because after your ridiculous cornerstone suggestion your opinions are about as highly regarded as a stinking heap of faeces. dont even try and compare the RAIDERS with that pack of quinces out at strathalbyn, i can tell you i am releaved you pissed off from the HFL back in the 60's.

Jesus, vaughan. bit testy there, turbo. I would have thought having the next 28-odd Saturdays off would have put you in a better mood, more time to pour into your 'business'. Although, with the Royal Show coming up, will you be busy hosting that game where you have to knock down the pyramid of steel bottles?

V-Man,

A fair and accurate discription of yourself, cheers for the heads up. I thought i knew who you were now you've just confirmed it. Put your hand up to coach the 1's, surely the passion you exude on here would be enough alone to get a couple more wins on the board, pity you'd need a few more than that to make the finals.

P.S. piss off down to country.

ok its alright V dont get too worked up. how bout you have a look at how Strath are doing this year and get back to me. pretty sure they will win GSFL club of the year. and if my memory serves me correctly Strath left the HFL back then cause they were winning EVERY flag imaginable! Bottom line with the grandfinal is that there will NEVER EVER be one held at Bridgewater. Would it be silly to have a Grand Final for hills Central played in a hills Country oval?
Milang springs to mind as a decent alternative option. although a little out of the way, the oval is in good shape has had very little use. plenty of parking, has canteen and bar and also changerooms. or would that be a logistical nightmare V.

3 flags straight and then a 4th...is that forgetting? A bit rough. Not like your mob have finished the job any better than anyone else over the past 10 years. if anything you're often the team 'around the mark'.
As for "older", I'd put my house on your cabbage cutter average being a LOT older than the devs.
I'll have to take your word on never forgetting how to grow a cabbage...is it as easy to remember as the smell of cabbage when driving through Uraidla? :lol:

hi pad
not doubting the success of the roosters. the boffins down strath way have done a resonable job and have great respect for a few of the old heads out that way.
i merely stated i was releaved they pissed off to the GSFL back in the 60's because i dont have to deal with morons like fabio twice a year.
by the looks of the impressive figures you have posted they are on their second biggest premiership drought in history so maybe fabio should concentrate on that rather than masterminding the fixturing of the damn hfl!!!
as for you speccy i will not be putting my hand up for a coaching role. while there is absolutely no doubt my man management and motivational skills may translate over from the business world, passion alone wont win games of football in this day and age. i have been away from the playing side of things for too long (nearly 20 damn years) and we need a master tactician familiar with the modern game.

How do you think the Raiders should go about scouting for their new coach? Aside from money what would draw a suitably qualified master tactician to the Raiders, simple dot points 1-5 will suffice. I think your under selling yourself V-Man, isn't man management 80% of coaching a "successful*" footy team? Best you get to work on my list first then get to tidying up your resume, of course, in between closing a multi-mullion dollar deal!

hi speccy
5 dot points as requested that should draw a suitabley qualified mentor out to THE FORTRESS.
hopefully these points blow your skid mark filled jocks clean off your putrid ass...

1 - Low expectations from a club, community and competition use to seeing Bridgewater fail. The club is so fixed in a losing mentality the coach has the challenge and prospect of building his own successful winning culture from the ground up. Something any budding coach would thrive on.
2 - A young and hungry senior playing group with a lot of potential, who have proven they have the ability to beat sides that are competing in the finals this year.
3 - A relaxed, friendly and laid back country atmosphere not far from the city.
4 - A senior coaching position in a strong and respected competition like the HFL is a big carrot for former AFL and SANFL players, as we have seen in the past with success from the likes of James (Kersbrook), Page (Blackwood) and more recently Sutherland (Uraidla).
5 - A supporter base with passion second to none.

now if you excuse me i have to go and prepare for tonights expected deluge of rain!!! my wife and i will be sleeping in damn wetsuits while i have ordered my son to watch over the livestock in the barn. pray for us. oh and that multi million dollar deal will have to wait for tomorrow!

your good at your combacks V but what i can see is that you have had a lot more practice than most others. 800 odd pages on SA Footy Hills Central and i bet there would be a THESIS worth of your verbal tirades!
as for my thoughts: I'm sure the drought will end this year for Strath Vaughan, and another 5+ years of domination will follow. As for grand final venues I Didn't see any ideas from you accept your outrageous statement about a potential GF to be held at one of the worst ovals Ive seen in SA. enjoy your night you spook.

I think a better question is were you there last night ? You seem to post a lot about the Raiders, almost to the point of being obsessed.

I was there and thought the master plan made sense and the expectations were definitely not ridiculous. As a player, I can't see the problem with a club expecting the best and knowing where it wants to be.
