Maybe Rowlands needs to have a good hard look at his so called support staff or just look after it himself.
You can't argue with Burridges record and he has got them playing a good brand of footy, not boring at all. Although didn't realise he was Jew Kicker (is that racist) I am going to take the benefit of the doubt here Piccacu and put that down to yor lack of grammatical skill.


It's the difference between being a nazi and a b grader unless of course North Havens 2's are nazi b graders.


I thought i did well only making one spelling error in the whole paragraph, i have never claimed to be a smart man, but i do know what a pelican is. and i did here Josh "Hugo" Hausler played in the B's on the weekend so it was all little from column A a little from Column B ;)


I believe the Jew kicking is left to Aaron Wiles and Andrew Dickenson

Why are people always looking to sack coaches because they don't meet an outsiders expectation. Clearly if a club is improving and growing that's all you would want. The reason I have so much respect for hope valley is the way they just look to improve year after year. Not 1 year wonders but a side that continues to get a little better year after year. They continue to promote their juniors and look after there own.

I think this forum proves that everybody thinks they could be a league coach and they could do it better. I applauds the guys that put there hand up and place their reputation on the line. So instead of coming on here and having a go at a coach maybe you could give him a helping hand.

RANT OVER.

Has anyone on here actually called for the coach to get sacked? Most have shown support for him.

Are they actually improving. In terms of having good numbers to fill 4 teams yes but the A Grades performances dont seem to be improving.

Having a 4th side is a massive improvement. The more sides you have the more likely you are to have strong juniors. This will In turn mean a stronger club. Turn the club back 5 or 6 years ago to know and I say a massive jump.

Adelaide Uni should have the strongest juniors in the league then :)

The club as a whole is probably in a stronger position, but a clubs on field success is measured by its A grade. They are two wins (and a draw) away from equaling last years on field success.

Question then, if the b grade, c grade and d grade all win premierships but the a grade don't make the finals is that a wasted year? I would think that would show a strong club.

It's a good question. You wouldn't say it's a weak club.
I'd probably only trade the 3 other flags for a guarunteed A grade flag (not to finish as an also ran).
Would definitely be a wasted year if the A grade got relegated though.
And I would probably consider this a wasted year for NH A grade (not neccesarily the coaches fault), as I thought they had the talent to at least make finals.

So becuase the D grade is winning games the A Garde coach should use players from the D Grade. Obviously the competitions are worlds apart you spastic :prayer: :prayer: :axe:

If your d grade is winning then you will find 20 odd players that are happy to be around the club. They will then be happy to stay around the club and have a beer and spend some money. This will then feed in to the finances of the club and ensure the club has the $$$$ to spend on a grade players. The more players that are winning games at your clubthe more $$$ that will go in to your club.

At the end of the day a club is now a business.

No Harvey Norman is considered a player, a c grader who was happy to be around the club so he spent some money over the bar ;)

the club is dictated by the A grade so in turn you must measure the success of a club by its A grade, having strong lower grades definately helps the A's as if the B grade team is strong it will put pressure on under performing A graders. At the same time Ive seen many a player that is an excellent B grader but doesnt have quite enough skills/speed/smarts to make it as an A grade player.
Lower grade success is a bonus IMO.
