Reflex - not touching that one.

I think I know who you are. Your nickname would suggest a hard exterior....

[the reflex]

worth a try DW, what about boxing 3 in a trifecta?

[Baron Greenback]

I agree with DW.
It's too hard to rate them unless you've actually played under them.

[the reflex]

3 umpire system struggled at the game I was at sat - over officiating a problem again - umpire making gestures to the crowd an interesting approach to heckling

[Dogwatcher]

So Reflex - what was the purpose behind your coaching question?

[the reflex]

might write a book "coaches that moved me" or "to coach or not to coach" do you think it has any legs?

[Dogwatcher]

Certainly does sound good.
Always more room for footy literature.

How many of those coaches listed have you been involved with?

[the reflex]

I love those leading questions DW your journalistic skills are in good order.

[Baron Greenback]

Speaking of footy literature, Dave Dunhill has just released his new book.
Looks pretty good, just flicking through it.

[Dogwatcher]

too true. too true.

Im a poster from EP and know Shane Kenney really well. Just to give you blokes an update, he has smashed his C1 vertabrae into 3 pieces. Just missed some vital nerves so he will be able to walk but no footy again.. Bloody sad as the boy could play and I know he was loving playing at Renmark..
Very unlucky in one way but very very very lucky in another.

[Baron Greenback]

Thanks Scooby.
It's a bloody tragedy that is.
All that talent gone to waste....
He was playing some fantastic footy too...

[Ron Burgundy]

Thats no good about Kenney, sounded like a quality footballer.

Jake playing A grade, gee north are in strife arent that, but agree with DW damn good bloke....

Was speaking to a couple of footballers from down here in the big smoke and the word is that Scott Lewis will try another year at Glenelg, aparently been told "next year is his big year". likely story i say. it is a bit of the same old story for Scott stuck in the B's constantly in the best three or four players but stuck in the 2's.

There is one mate down here from renmark with SANFL league experience that may be playing back renmark in a week or two.....and there is pretty strong indications that he will be playing back for renmark permanently in the not so distant future, if not this year, he says next year is a strong chance. That would do Renmarks chance some good eh Barry....

[the wonder elephant]

very sad to here shane kennys story the lad can play lets all hope he can still enjoy a good quality of life . does any one know if he is still in flinders hospital ?

[Mop Up]

Boys! he wasnt at flinders.. still in hospital though... wearing some big ass brace and bored shitless in hospital. wears the brace for 6 weeks... hes going back to lincoln next week for couple months but by all reports will make full recovery.
docs i think have said body will be fine to play footy again.. just whether the head is.. but he is in good spirits and stil has his sense of humour.

[the wonder elephant]

wheres he at then mop boy ? would like to go see him to give my support mate ?

[Dogwatcher]

RB - good to see you back.

Would your SANFL experienced player back to Renmark also share the initials RB?

[Ron Burgundy]

That may be correct. He is just getting over an ankle injury and keen to play back home in the next few weeks

[Baron Greenback]

Yeah had heard that.
Would be a very handy pick-up, especially considering we've lost someone of Shane's quality.

[hazed]

bit quiet in here today.
how's loxton going to go against waikerie catfish? will uren be back or is he still seeing double?
