[carey]

must admit that im a bit jumpy and nervous heading into this week which because of work will be my first on the track this season
as i enter my 38th and last year involved in footy i must admit that my love for the game has never deminished
this being the case,it does not get any easier
as we grow older we like to rember what the game used to be like and how much it has changed
in fact the game has never really changed,just peoples ideas of the game,how it should be played and whats the best course to take to get the best out of your clubs
the actual game is still the same
goals ,points,team work,individual brilliance ,umpires and the one eyed love of your team and club
one thing that has changed the most is the coach,his methods and ideas
this is one of the reasons im leaving the game but as most will tell you,its about 37 years to late
as this season approaches i am really looking forward to the part of the game i love
my team,the opposition,everyone getting the best out of themselves and that bond that all players and coaches have from all clubs,the love of the game

Good luck Deeman, you have a great attitude to the game. And it is a game. Some of us get a bit too serious and some of us understand. You understand. Best wishes.

All the best hope your last season can bring you the ultimate success you've been chasing and deserve.

Pretty sure the oldies at the bowls club would prefer you to stay involved in footy so they dont have to fight a bloke less than half there age for coffee and scones.

nothings changed mate,just getting older slower and must admit not any wiser
missed you down at the club mate
hope to see you soon
your overall genitic and intellictual brilliance has been missed,esp by me

[dee man]

great first week on the track and it brought quickly back the reason i loove this game so much
alot of new faces was good to see but as the campaign gets closer we need to get alot of the players from last year back
its a pity we have lost several more to overseas duty but we do wish them the best in health and safety and that they arrive back like the other lads that toured last year,safe and well
as we venture into this new season the ambitions and hopes of this little club continue to grow and hopefully our season will again successfully achieve the goals we have set out like last season
i would also like to thank the messages of support both the ones on the forum and the PM that i have recieved and in time will answer some of the questions i was asked
footy is back and to some who will not have the same feelings,the deeman is back

good night on the track
with the army boys not back to april it was good to get the local numbers up
several new players training was good and hopefully their drop down divisions will greatly benfit us

Hey dee man. Looking forward to seeing Ovies against Smithfield in a few weeks time. A few important players not there this year but with the new players coming in I think that Ovies should be able to put a competitive team on the park each Saturday. Really looking forward to seeing the Army lads play more games this year and also see the new local lads as well when im in Adelaide.

good to see you around the club mate
the new guys that have been training are coming along nicely at the moment and i was happy to see none of them playing for their old club over the weekend in their trial
as you know,until you got that signiture their not yours but a couple have signed late this week so when we put them through i will be happier

Looking forward to being there when ever my job and travel commitements allow. Will be good in a few weeks time to watch the new players in action. Going on how I played a few weeks ago in the NSW preseason carnival I should be able to squeeze a few more games out of the body if needed this year.

[dee man]

we have had good numbers for us at this stage but always room for more players especially with the amount of army guys we have and their schedules and overseas work
have lost three already for call up to afganastan and about 8 are not due back into adelaide till late aptil early may
a few players training with us signed on thursday night and we have another 4 that will sign this week
that will go along way to helping with the local players
so anyone else who is looking for a kick and catch you are more than welcome down at the cattery

saturdays trial game against smithfield has been confirmed

saturday 24/3/12
cane reserve
2.30pm start time

all welcome
bar and canteen will be open
coffee on tap

[dee man]

looking foward to tody
we had good numbers out during the week which was pleasing
todays squad only has 8 regular players in it from last season so it will be interesting to see how the lads go
with a majority of the boys not in town till late april it looks like our depth might be better than last year but that will be needed since we loose so many of the guys at any one time

[dee man]

good hit out by the lads today against smithfield
a big crowd was treated to a good game of footy
we had 12 new players playing in the blue and white today which was good news for the club
they played well and even tho we will take a few games to get to know each other was a great first up effort
well done to smithfield and i wish them the best for the year

gives you the shits when a struggling little club has a half a dozenguys out training and playing and then some country club comes offers them $300 a game to play for a club that has not won a game since when ever.
$300 a game for c graders...you got to be joking
makes a bloke want to get away from this crap

Had heard callington were offering this money to players, came into my work asking if anyone wanted a game for this money, hilarious could be a long year for them

[Bigshow82]

We have had a bloke put in a clearance to head out to callington also. I have heard he has been offered $350 a game. Looked through last years games list and he only played a handful of A grade games. This is ludicrous for a bloke that played mainly div 7r football.
