Riverland Football Chatter

Speaking of Sutherland, he might not even be on the Aussie rules scene next season,
instead could be suiting up for gridiron in America.

Nice segue use there SL! Good luck to big Pump, who's nickname stems from being orange, like a pumpkin. Lol

Brad Helbig picked up by Richmond. Hope he makes the most of this oppertunity

[Catdog]

Anyone know who is coaching indy sides this year????

[Dogwatcher]

Wunkar struggling, so I've been told.
They were hopeful former coach John Kindness, a wonderful club man, would do it but he's been linked with Loxton under 18s.

Moorook has apparently had two people talk to them. One who's had involvement at Berri but is asking a bit of cash, while the other is fairly secretive. Not sure how true that is - but that's what I've been told by someone who has been involved at the club over the past few seasons.

I understand Murray Voigt is also heading back to Loxton to help out a youngish coach of a junior side.

Will Moorook Kingston have a club in 2011. I hear they struggled both on and off field last season

[Dogwatcher]

They struggled but there are plenty of people passionate about the club who, if not involved at the moment, will be if it comes to the crunch. Same as every Indy club. They won't let their club fold, just as Brown's Well haven't in the past few years and as Lyrup haven't when things have been tough. Moorook's situation is just part of the Independent cycle.

Who are the RFL brothers who another club approached for a chat? They have had family connections at the club who spoke to them.
Will well travelled Ricky Hunter return to Loxton to play a season? And will this bring Bangers out of retirement?
Will Jason Willshire coach at Brown's Well, or return to Berri, or Loxton North to play?
Can Brett Blackwell convince a couple of talented Swans to try at the Rovers?
Are the Underwood boys returning to Waikerie?

[200 Killer Wasps]

Ricky Hunter has been linked with Moonta on the YP thread.

[Ron Burgundy]

Robert Price coaching Red Cliffs?

Robert Price coaching Red Cliffs?

Be the 20th name I have heard to coach the mighty Tigers. Big proud club when i played there. Looks to be a bit of work ahead of him if true.

[Dogwatcher]

Have heard that one too RB.

Barmera also confident of retaining this season's recruits too.

Riverland ruckman is Red Cliffs Football Club’s new coach

Red Cliffs Football Club’s new coach Robert Price admits he is walking into the great unknown.
A new club, his first stint in a senior coaching role and nearing the end of his playing days.

Price this week committed to taking on a club that failed to register a senior victory last season and who he labelled the “easybeat” of the competition.

However, the long-serving Riverland ruckman/forward who played for Irymple in 1996, yesterday said there was only one direction the club could move in the coming 2011 Sunraysia Football and Netball League season.

Price, who turned 40 yesterday, acknowledged that he faced a huge challenge to drag the club out of the mire of a disastrous 2010 season.

“I’m not going to set my sights too high – it’s just going to depend on what players we do get back,” Price said.

I wonder how he'll go being a coach. Not the most responsible leader known to man...

I think vinnie will go alright,has a very good footy brain and the extra responsibility will make him pull his head in

He's been responsible ever since he stopped hanging out with me

Former Berri coach Grant Russell (In the bushes) has reportedly been pulling a few recruiting strings at Hamilton, signing former number three draft pick and Richmond and St Kilda reject Aaron Fiora.

OS - I'm currently watching some junior cricket being played on the oval of one of your future opponents - Two Wells.
Looks like a nice little oval. You should have fun running from half back on it

[the reflex]

wouldn't he be on the ball in the seconds?
