Studley just announced 2 new asst coaches for the bays but didnt know who was leaving. One is Chris Groom, didnt catch the other, nothing on bays website or SL....anyone know?

would hate to lose Rowey or Cavo

Was it someone called Godden, I briefly heard it but didn't really listen as Im used to the Bays doing their hurdy gurdy of coaching every year.

It is Godden. Cavo and Rowe staying on.

Good Afternoon,

In addition to the media release about Michael Godden and Chris Groom, Glenelg Football Club would like to reiterate that Chris Groom will be the new Forward Coach alongside Stephen Rowe Midfield Coach and Peter Caven Defensive coach.

Paul Sandercock, GFC Reserves Coach 2006 was unable to continue in his role due to family commitments and therefore Michael Godden will be taking on the role for 2007.

We wish Paul all the best and welcome Michael and Chris in their new roles at the Glenelg Football Club.

Kind Regards

Cavo as defensive coach?

Can't see the GB's listening too hard when he say's,

"This is how you fill the hole in front of a 17 stone juggernaut and not flinch till you wake up in hospital".

I was thinking the same when I read the quite in the press release that said Groomy "has an eye for talent". Maybe it was he who convinced the Shockers that he was better than McLeod?

Good luck to Michael Godden, absolutely respected at Westies.

Is it now compulsory for a certain quota of Bay coaches to come from the Bloods?
