In the Eastern Football League in metropolitan Melbourne, Division 3 club Mooroolbark advertised for Expressions of Interest in their senior coaching position in 2007 about six weeks ago, looking for someone to take over from ex-Richmond player Andy Goodwin

Neagle has stated many times that this is his last year as coach, and the way his team is going could go out with a huge bang...

Balranald would nearly be certanties wouldn't they??? They've had some massive wins over some of the other 'contenders'.

Certanties is a strong word the only certainty I have ever seen was a greyhound by the name of Pyrenees Fox. Just like Pyrenees Fox, Balranald fell at the last hurdle last year going in with good form having beaten some of the sides during the year by big margins and Tyntynder in the prelim by over 80 points if i remember correctly. Don't get to ahead of it out there, there are 4 teams capable of winning the flag this year

The odd injury???
He hasn't played for 10 weeks.
Is your rumor as accurate as your assessment on his current progress??
If your not sure on things, rather than make things up, don't say anything!

There maybe a number of clubs in the Western Border FL looking for new coaching appointments for season 2007 !!

Heard it is a club that has pretty strong ties with a lot of players in the SFL. You don't have to be Einstein to work it out, quite a few blokes at this club have played in SFL in the past 5 years give or take a few and a few blokes from the SFL have played with this club in the past couple of seasons

Are they trying to get him because of a reported mass exodus out at Buc land next year, or are the club hoping to keep most of the players with a signing like this? You have your foot in the door there Yaabs

Pretty close to the mark Ringo1.
I also hear that Moama are going to have a new coach next year. By the look of there results this year they would need a change of coach. Non-Playing coaches don't really suit country footy these days unless the club has a heap if coin to play good players.
Most clubs need to attract a gun player by having them as coach.
And maybe Guy Campbell to take over at Echuca untied.

Yes he was at the game on Saturday watching a few of his old Wentworth mates run around Jarrod and Drew Arentz. He came with Arentz boys brother Gareth, how does that mean he is coaching Tooleybuc Manang?? He told me himself he is likely to coach over Albury way, would be a good pick up for any club.

Joel Griffiths is not the man to lead Hay to success. He would be a poor choice, as he is in bred with the same culture that has Hay going no where. Undisiplined.
They need a winner to take the reins.

No idea if there will be a change or not. You did say on 14th July that "Alvey is getting chased pretty hard by Tooleybuc-Manangatang, not Balranald"
Have you heard something definite about any chasing? Either way keeping the current list and set-up and adding any good additions in 2007 can only be good for them.

I'd say Garth Russell would have to be a good chance again. The saints have been moving along nicely so far. Long way to go in the season to be talking about coaches for next year, especially for the teams likely to be playing in finals..

Miceli. Heard he played for the Bullants a few years back. Must be handy at least.
If that the same Miceli that Im thinking of, that's a huge coo for Hay. Auldist, Fitzpatrick and Miceli that would be a preety formiddable attack!. Whats he reason for leaving his beloved grasshoppers?. We're been chasing him for years, the all mighty dollar spoke too much. Good luck to Hay for securing his services:thumbsu:

This must be a practical joke that someone is playing. Pat Miceli coaching. I nearly fell of my chair in laughter and I almost fell off my chair when I read your post HappyDayz. He didnt play any senior games at the bullants.
If its the same Pat Miceli I once knew the its very funny. Pat trained with the bullants over the summer of 99/00 pre season. he got a spot on the list in the 2000 year, mind you anyone in the world could have that year. thats how terrible the bullants were travelling. From memory he played the the opening 4 or 5 games in the reserves only to be dropped and never seen again at the club. He wasnt upto it at all.
But the funniest story of him came when the club was trying to organise the footy trip that year, he walked upto the guys organising the trip and asked "is it ok if my cousin comes on the trip with me?" The organisers just cracked up laughing. Poor bloke felt about 2cm tall.
He had the nickname libba. He was small in height but tried to no avail. If it is him I couldnt see him coaching a team.

Yes Fakey the rumour is true, Calarco and Morris have always been extremely close ever since their days at Euston Colts cricket. It seems that the time is right for Brad to go back and rejoin his former mentor. They have already been on the recruiting trail and have apparently signed a few handy players from neighbouring leagues namely Matt Downing from Robinvale and Mick Malam from arnhem land Kendall Pant from SA amatuers is also a big chance, get on the bombers in 07.

Will be very good for Watsonia if this does happen. Both players will help the young blokes out the club greatly. I wonder if they will try and entice anymore of the players they currently playing with in the GVFL. My sources are they have all but signed, they are just going through final details and will be announced at the club very shortly. Good to see Watsonia on the improve.
I see on the Picola thread that both the Deni Rovers PDFL and the Deni Rams MFL are after new coaches. :thumbsu:
