The SANFL have named their State Team coach... read on!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
From the Advertiser, 23/12/04.
Hart new SA coach
North premiership captain, former league coach and Adelaide rover then assistant coach Darel Hart will lead the SANFL state team against the Big V next year.
State assistant coach to Alastair Clarkson in 2003, Hart will rekindle his coaching passion against Victoria at TEAC Oval in Port Melbourne on May 21.
Clarkson, who led SA in its 60-point belting of WA in Fremantle last year, was contracted to coach SA next year until he was appointed senior coach at Hawthorn in September. The league has stuck to their policy of appointing an experienced coach who was not currently coaching an SANFL club.
Hart played in three successful SA teams (1987, 1990, 1992) against WA in a distinguished 236-game career in the SANFL (Central 47 games, North 189) and 39 AFL appearances with Adelaide. He has been scouting SANFL football for the Crows since his career ended at Prospect six games before the end of the 2003 season.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
He's got quite a job ahead of him... less time to put together a side this time, with only eight rounds of SANFL footy to prepare with.
