She's satisfied...

[OnSong]

Firstly, she's 39 or 40.
Secondly, I think they're two different fields of expertise.
She is quite good at bookkeeping.

[OnSong]

1/ If he's 22 one could assume she is of a similar age, so how does one get 15 years admin experience ?

She used to work at Nike.

Next question.
Is she a "cougar" or his mother, that age difference makes interesting material for a movie. Remember Mrs Robinson?

Actually, she doesn't seem like a 40 year old at all in person.
I guess the age difference would define as Cougar, but she doesn't seem to fit the Cougar as per a traditional stalking beast.

just curious, do other sanfl clubs have such overt calls for emplyment help for players?

[OnSong]

If they don't, maybe they should...

[carey]

If they don't, maybe they should...

very good idea.

[OXnFOX]

Good money is on the table I hear.

Gotta wonder what "good money" is these days.

$5000 was paid back in the mid - 2000's @ an Indys club. That was considered good money back then.

What would the best/worst be for the RFL in money terms you think?

At a guess I'd say @ Renmark $10K - $15K

Yet it wouldn't surprise me if Des Kemp was paid this much over 10 years ago.

Have heard Ty Allen has left Berri to be playing/Assisstant coach at Adelaide Lutheran next year.
Great pick up for the Doggies!

[Dogwatcher]

Another one off the Demon Train.
Amazing how the past two premiership teams have disintegrated.
It's true what they say about in the lead up to GFs - "you'll never play with this exact same bunch of blokes again".

Very disappointing for brother Jarrod, who is coaching Murrayville this year.

[Dogwatcher]

Just got a bit of a surprise while reading Kevin Sheedy's book - one Tom Graetz appears in the background of one of the photos.

[boot camp]

I read there is talk of the Millewa league combining into the Sunraysia League B grade comp again - low numbers / junior numbers etc
Is the RFL B Grade and Indies comps going the same way ??? If there is a shake up,
RFL games days could be like this.
Perhaps only having A Grade, U18's (u17;s) under 15's Under 13 playing at the one venue and B Grade / Indies divided into 2 divisions
2 grand finalist of the 2 division playing in Div 1 division the following year.
Just a thought obviously but could become inevitable in the future to keep the Teams in the comp.

[Baron Greenback]

I think you'll find the Independent competition is thriving at the moment.
Paringa, Wunkar, Lyrup, East Murray all to be strong again, plus I hear BSR, Cobby and Ramco will improve again.
The nine-team comp seems to hold a certain appeal to a lot of locals and is coming along in leaps and bounds.
I'd be surprised if any merger would be needed for at least 30 years and even then it's unlikely.

[200 Killer Wasps]

Thats the beauty of not having a B grade.

If you have a week where you only have 14 players available you can have a quick whip around in the pub Friday night and then top up with colts to fill your team.

The downside would be less people through the gate and less $$ coming in but then you have got less to spend it on and not as many volunteers required.

Has Loxton North thrown a wad of cash to get Franks DW? Heard the Panthers were keen to secure his services and have succeeded.
Also, the bigger question, will Berri colts cult hero Callum Trifonoff follow him across to windy hill?

[Dogwatcher]

Not sure about wads of cash.
But he seems very keen to play over at North.
Will Berri let him go?
The lad has plenty of potential - just needs to realise it.

Not sure about young Triff.
He might follow his house-mate.
I certainly won't be putting any pressure on him to head over our way.

The Panthers have recruited well - a couple of locals heading back. Also a player who trained with North Adelaide last season is set to come up as well.
A young fellow to look out for is Jacob Otto, who smashed a 14 year old record in the 12 minute run earlier this month.
Hayden Cook held the record of 7.1 laps in the 12 minutes, Otto took it to 7.6.
Out of interest, Franks finished with 6.6 - a pretty good effort.
The standard is 6 if you wish to play A grade and 6.5 to be a midfielder.

you might find that Loxton was the only side that was struggling to find numbers for B grade each saturday, most of the other sides had good numbers to pick from, also if your B grade plays at another venue the issue of trainers, and if the A grade need to have a late replacement come into effect ??

$450 a game plus $25 a goal is what I have heard & thats for Trifonoff.
