BL&G Football League

[FrancisGilbertHamley]

Does anyone know if there is a clearance site for the YPFL?

[The Duke]

I see that the Leader is advertising for a Footy journo for the up coming season. Whats happened to Media Mike? I'm sure John Doe who has not been on this site for a while can fill us in.

Skip

Skipper - I know that Media Mike is trying to diversify his skills. Last time I seen him, he was playing Father Christmas in the Angaston street parade. As far as John Doe is concered, you shouldn't speak ill of the dead, may he resting in peace with the 2008 passings of Blockie, Haffey and Stirlo.

[mr oh well]

i think you could nearly put down some people leaving the club because of oconnors lack of interest in many of willastons senior colts at his time there. Yeah he knows alot about football, and was able to teach, but why not teach the whole club instead of his golden boys. I think only 4 senior colts got games in his time at the club, S baker, A Natt, S welk, and L Pratt (not the golden boys)... probably for a total of 10 games for the 3 years? (dont know how long) he was there... looks like it was Tanundas seniors coach’s thoughts and ideas on junior development was probably more club orientated, looking at long term goals…………. Oh well…

Mr
I think you may have forgotton a few others as well
Brooks x 2
Durbridge
Buckley
Frakowski
Deduoni
Trevellan
Green
Carter
McCleans x 2 ( when they had a bye at league )
I am sure there are others also
With only 2 Import spots ever open to him he must have used plenty of the locals
And the U17s went top 2 years when he was there

Shaun Welk, Daniel Hendry. The Carters are x2, Lee Ponton the list goes on and on

[Pinch Hitter]

No arguments here, without his black book occonnor would be in trouble, he didn't really have a hands on approach to coaching..

Not too sure how many under 17's he blooded at barossa when he moved there.

we're talking about 80+ players here potentially.. who cares what the juniors did 8 years ago.

We may as well go back to when willaston had 6 or more players progress to seniors every year in the 80's & 90's and played senior finals every year and grand finals every other.

Not hands on. Tell me more

His art is in recruitment and sales, not of coaching skills and techniques and it has been very successful for him so why would he try anything different.

Coaching skills and techniques?
Name a current coach who does coach skills and techniques?

Players that are playing A-Grade shouldnt need to be coached on their skills!

i watched two games in your league last season and i saw a lot of players [ A grade ] who needed a 'fair bit ' of work on their skills. not top 5 sides admittedly but still A grade sides.

One of (if not the) strongest leagues in the SA country.
So would hate to see you watch two games a year anywhere else.

not arguing about the standard of your league just stating what i observed.

BLG isn't that good. Wouldn't be much better (if at all) than the nearby leagues(APFL, YPFL and NEFL). Hills and Western Border would have it over them.

Come on Shrek!!

Hummocks and Mallala with full sides might be lucky... but would more likely struggle to beat full sides from the bottom of the BL&G table.

And they would get completely, totally and utterly pumped by Tanunda and Barossa and Co.

[UNDERthePACK]

Shrek, Obviously shopped yourself around a little mate to be able to rate all these comps. If you are so well informed on the Barossa league, which club did you play for their. You must of had to have played in this comp to know the standard. I can say from 1st hand that the Barossa league would be heads and Shoulders above APFL and NEFL, yes the top side of both comps would be competative in the BL&G still think that they would be middle of the table at best. Before you bite back, no I didn't shop myself around I played within these other leagues because of work commitments at those times so think I have some sort of idea (mind you it was a few years back that I was at NEFL) - Could be wrong, but not often

Shrek your kidding arn't you.. The BLG comp would smash the APFL AND THE YPFL NEFL.. hands down. Not even an arguement. People need to think about what they say before they say it one thinks!!!!! Also i think you will find the barossa had 15 players in the zone side which is made up of the other leagues minus the YPFL. There is alot of talent running around in the BLG..

(last year BLG was in a new area, which definately DID NOT include APFL or YPFL, & maybe not NEFL)

Sorry your right last year it did previous years it's been with YPFL.
last year i think you will find the BLG had 3/4 of the team in the Zone side!!!
Still the best country league out of the ones i noted previous..

During the footy season the Bunyip is the best paper to get. It has a wide spread sport report that is mainly football but netball last season got a fair write up aswell. The herald is mainly for netballers but that's because Graham Fisher does it!! I for one think the leader is a waste of time buying. For local sport the bunyip is the best paper. In saying that you wouldn't buy it for anything else!!!!!
