COACHES FOR 2011

[BenchedEagle]

We had some good battles though at that time Duncs. I'll never forget that 2nd semi and the brawl at 3/4 time. Can laugh about it now but looking back now I am still amazed the game was allowed to continue

ahh yes. those were the good ol days. seems so long ago now

[unknown source]

back to parkies i believe wants to play c grade cant see him playing any higher

Surely he would at least play 'B' grade out there, i think a couple more of your boys might go back there and have a crack at Division 1.

will soon find out maybe the brahma lodge yo yo will be out

[unknown source]

apparently div1R is unreal and most our side wouldn't make the cut so doubt he will

Trent would definatly play B grade at EP and wouldnt surprise if he got a few A grade games as he will only get better and Dusty likes giving the younger lads a go and most have held their spots when given the chance.

Having played some reserves in Mildura i'd rate that a better standard than div 5 A's (played both last year against the premiers in both comps). So i'd suggest div 1r would be aswell.

Somebody that now's what they are talking about, can't blame a kid for going back to his home club to have a crack at Division 1.

Trent is also still young enough to play U/18s and has mentioned that he may want to play with his mates next season. Hard to beleive he has just turned 17 yet has played the last 2 seasons in seniors and done very well. Could not blame him for going back to EP to have a crack at div 1 and still be able to play U18s with his mtes.

Is joss coaching Smithfield again or is looking at a higher grade to coach.

Joss is going around again for Smithfield.

Totally agree, looking at the team lists and best players for Eastern Park he has given a fair few 16/17 year olds a crack and obviously has paid dividends, PJ and Biggsy are two that spring to mind immediately.

Wouldubelieve I think it would be a tough gig coaching u boys now. Have very good depth but may need a major overhaul.

disapointing year yes, but no overhaul needed!!!!
we have key forwards...
on ballers everywhere
probably one of the best ruckmen in the comp and a promising young ruckmen..
good defence....
we'll pick up more players next season and im very interested to see who they appoint next season...
if i was a coach coming to plympton id be very happy with what we have and what we can get...

Gee WUB thought we had all that this year onballers, forwards, ruckmen,good defenders and we shouldnt have even made finals. So I would love to know why u think we failed this year. IMO there is a massive change in attitude needed in alot of players who I think I stuck in the "its only div 5 footy attitude and just expect they will train half pace and rock up sat and play at there best. Fix attitude and results may well be different obviously SymOnds was not able to do that!

Well black not sure what the fido will be doing next yr prob still trying to get a kick down the kennel mate. As for what I would do one word DISAPLINE and a and a shit load of hard work because clearly what we have been doing over the last few years isnt good enough to take the next step but thats only my opinion which means jack at the end of the day

Without prying too much there fb, you guys don't pay players do you?

Not privvy to that info mate. Why do u ask?

[mighty hounds]

Just something i heard i havent bothered to read the opther posts yet so my apologies if its being repeated. Word mentioned to me was Mitchell out at Fitzroy was heading out to Two Wells either approached or applied. Any truth to this. Punk Rooster would know more i would suggest but its just something i heard. Was G.Phillips that was out there this year or was that Virginia?

Any other news on Coaches for Div 3. There has been a few posts in the SAAFL newsletter and so on for some Div 3 spots?

Mitchell and Fitzroy have parted ways since the end of the season.

Phillips was at Virginia this year, but aparantly Two Wells are looking for a new coach, so the Mitchell rumour may be more of a fit.

I dont think its TW pag. my money is a team a few kms past mallala

Because I know how hard it is to get full commitment from players when they don't get paid, it's not as though you can dock their pay for not training etc. We don't pay anyone and I was under the impression that you guys were in the same boat.

pfc doesn't pay either....

not saying you are wrong because i dont even know what league mildura is in but from what i have heard i thought country footy reserves in general was a pretty low standard? from what ive heard, in the country you will get the guns who are paid big $$$ but then there is a lack of depth.

i know when we had trials against birdwood a few years ago, our Bs would win quite easily and our As would lose quite easily.

Has Mitchell ever coached or played in the country before.

Mitchell played a season with United in about 93 or 94. Was always getting into scraps both on and off the field. He has definately been around a bit and if I were Two Wells I would be very careful if they are indeed talking to him. Not the sort of coach they would be looking for I wouldn't have thought.
