hey toey here's one for you kade butters signed to coach the saints again...rumor has it they are looking at the upper murray to recuirt....tallangatta mach 2.....I hope its not Scuba McCabe going back there. He's already had a crack at the Saints and struggled. Maybe they need to get old Stephen Lord back at the club:D Seriously though the Toecutter will put the feelers out and find out who they are targeting:cool:

The good word is he will just play at the Spiders MTAG. They reckon are going to leave Howlong after this season.
Would Myles be on the radar for clubs in the TDFL looking for a coach now Ross has given coaching away?

Given that AFL Coaches are quitting and getting sacked faster than Mitta girls lose their virginity to their brothers.
Are there any clubs in our league looking to follow suit?
Are there any whispers of coaches in other Leagues getting the flick?
Who are the most likely candidates for any positions comming up if any?
How many Hodgkins are married to Hodgkins?

Apparently Bone is heading north before next year so KSC will be looking for a new coach - is anyone the heir apparent?
Also, I've heard that Paul Knight had his knee op last week and that Dickins will be coaching the swans this week against the saints - is this a sign of things to come next year?? Will Dickins take over Chiltern?

Rumour has it Packer not going around at Mitta next year. Damian Slater (Current 2's coach Wodonga) to coach next year with Keith Ainsworth as his assistant. Cohen to captain. All three are very good mates

Conway will neck himself if thats the case! He has pinned all hopes and dreams on getting that job. I was told that Conway was promised that job in 2008 if he went there as a player in 2007.

I won't name names because i am not sure if they have signed, but there were three mates watching the game on sat who are keen. They got there early to check out the thirds to see the depth of the club and have another couple of team mates who will join them. They even had their manager with them.:rolleyes:

Come On - this thread is dying. It needs a bit of life. At least tell us which club they're from !
You's were nearly spot on until you mentioned the fact that they're on a truckload of $$$$$, dunno where you got that one from. The name of the player and he's crew won't be named until their signing after the season. Watch this space........

They made need to bring some players with them as departures will include the likes of Jaz Hillary;Liam Clayton and Dan Powell.Couldnt imagine Az Purcell remaining there if Ross doesnt coach and Josh at Albury where Jaz is most likely to head(relations for the illinformed)

Liam Clayton and Dan Powell have already signed for next year (at yack). You are right Jazz Hillary will more than likely move on with work taking him out of the region, not to Albury Footy Club. Hopefully for the yack boys Purcell may stay, they love him out there and his son plays out the too(Juniors). I think his partner plays netball out there aswell. I have heard he may retire.

Coming from there own mouths they were not sure what they were doing next year(Clayton and Powell) and a Hume league club rebuilding are very confident of regaining some old players and i would imagine the former would be high on their list.I think anyone would love to have Purcell at their club as he is clearly the most talented player in the league.Will be an interesting time as it always is.

Not disputing Purcell is a very talented man, but is he the most talented in the league???
Clayton and Powell are obviously great mates, if Clayton returned to Holbrook would his mate follow and play against his former side?

from their OWN mouths hey??? i just spoke to both of them at the Bottom Pub at Yack, and in between mouthfuls both said they will be wearing the Royal Blue and White at Yack next year! Powelly is in love with a local gal and it is in his bests interests to remain at Roo Park.
i can tell you there has been some interest shown in a number of prospective coaches, but Yack have always had the utmost respect for all clubs involved that they do not seal any deal or sign anyone 100% until the footy season is over for all concerned.
As for Aaron, Jerilderie moving to PDFL has put that out of the question, his own words. you heard it here, if Aaron plays anywhere next year, it will be at Yack. Ross, relations and all that aside, he wants to play in a successful side again before he gives it up. he is 29 soon and has played over 300 senior games, so he is not too far off. his partner doesn't play Netball but loves the family atmosphere at YFC and their young bloke is a gun junior footballer. Jazz will more than likely move interstate if he gets the right teaching job, and Nutter is going overseas anyway. he may have a decision to make though, as he booked his flights to leave OZ on 15th September??
bring on the silly season!!
Would Yacks coach be Lillis from Raiders ?
Pretty strong rumours circulating about this for some time now.
Brent lillis was out there on the weekend watching . is their any chance one of the other guys is rod winner ????
but Yack have always had the utmost respect for all clubs involved that they do not seal any deal or sign anyone 100% until the footy season is over for all concerned.

how dare you doubt my integrity! half way through the year is generally prior to 30th June you half wit! Trent was recommended to Yack as a "possible" clearance cut-off recruit. i am sure most district clubs would be doing that every year prior to 30th June when teams like Raiders have been in the positions they have been in. that is, not winning games, well down the ladder, and possible disgruntled players may be enticed to leave.

Sound likes the deal is done MTAG, just waiting for their season to finish. Not sure if thats the way to go as reads like some know who it is already. Maybe come out like the rugby league do and sign anytime.

I dont think yack are doing anything that any other club would not be doing right now. For example, Damien Slater (Wodonga 2's coach) has had strong talks with Tallangatta and Mitta. If clubs were not doing this now they would not be doing there jobs properly!

Can't you read TFS!!!! christ, i said, Yack have not signed and will not sign anyone until that person/s have finished their season, UNLESS that person/s want to. By stating person/s i mean Senior and Reserves coaches and Assistants etc. Although it does look like Marcus Dowling will coach the Reserves again if he wants.
don't worry though, you will be the first to know when i find out! (which is usually last anyway)
Yack got the bye this week, so dont assume if you see players at other grounds that they have signed there for next year. they have all been told to go out and scout for next year!

Whoa up big fella - yes i can read otherwise i wouldnt have replied to your post the first time. Understand what your saying & respect that. Sounds like what all clubs would do - sign em if they want or wait till they ready, i just was saying sounds like you have a coach agreed for next season, just need to dot the i's and cross t's when everyone is ready.

Well benched as you can see by Almost dones obvious yet piss funny reply we at Thurggona have known about the job offer for a number of weeks.(Well before the season ended) and have offered Derek our 100% support if he wishes to travel down that path. From what i understand it is not only a coaching job but a full time job working in the indigenous community down there. At Thurgoona we will never try to hold someone back for making a choice that could benifit there lives (The job) or football weather its a coaching position or to have a crack at a higher level eg.. O&M. So yeah it will be a loss but we have a couple of guys already at the club who are ready to take over his mantle and could really prosper in his absence.:thumbsu:

Lillis is definately coaching Yack heard that directly from the mouth of the current Assistant Coach. So anything else really is hear say.
its no real secret is it? i wonder if the Border Mail are going to report it like Almo's appointment to Howlong??? the TDFL's "worst kept secret".

if Jimmy Harris goes to Mitta after Gecko has signed at Yack, he will be shot as he gets off the plane from Perth. my news is Assistant Coach??
Whats the latest on the Mitta job? It would be a plumb job, would not be hard to attract a coach i reckon.

Who is he? Where is he from GB?
He was introduced to the club at our presentation night last Friday. He spoke very well. I beleive he is from the Melbourne area and has recently moved to North-East Vic.
He will be a non-playing coach.
From what I hear, his playing experience includes stints with St Kilda and Fitzroy in the 70s, along with VFA and other clubs in the Melbourne area. I also hear that he has substantial experience in coaching at VFA and ametures level, and has been the runner for St Kilda.
I get the feeling that he interviewed very well and the club is justifiably quite impressed.

I disagree, I reckon it would be a rotten job to take on, given that you cannot exceed expectations, merely equal them, or fail. I'm not sure many coaches want to be the one to stuff up the great run of flags.

Yes it looks like he's going to bring some new ideas to football in the region, the likes of which we've never seen before. According to Border Mail, he is going to "get the numbers up" and "bring in some fresh ideas" and is "excited by the challenge that lies ahead". Ground breaking. I'm told his major challenge will be to keep his best 3 players at the club as they're all reportedly on the move.
Damien Slater has pulled out of the race for the Mitta, Barny & Tallangatta jobs. Both Barny & Tallangatta thought they had him. I believe there is a power of Barny blokes moving on.

Lets hope he gets afair crack of the whip to do something with the playing group before, sections of the fans and players turn against him, because there boy isnt getting a run

Not unless he wants to be kicked out of home considering his old man is the president of Kiewa. So i would say that is highly unlikely.

Yeah Rowger confirmed in Border Mail today.
Interesting to see another club go down the line of signing a Non-Playing coach. Will Burgess be able to lure any quality blokes to Barny? At the least, he brings a fair bit of knowledge with him I suppose.

Barny signing Burgess as Non-Playing Coach!! WTF???
didnt they tell Hollard they wanted a playing coach???
obvious change of mind there!
cant wait to see Barny Vs Rutherglen during the year, both coaches will race to their huddles on walking frames!!
they might even teach a few boys the STAB pass!

Why Tallangatta who have they picked up that is going to improve them so much this year remembering they are a long way behind already. Yack have picked up a couple but they have lost a lot of quality. Haven't really heard of any major signing nor should we at this stage.

Exactly,Yack have picked up more than they have let on.They have however lost their best 3 players in Purcell;Hillary and Clayton.Be interesting to see if Fraser plays again.Certainly not on the Hillarys xmas card list after playing for himself last year and refusing to man up all year apparently.Also been privvy to some recent conversations in a certain hotel over the last few weeks with former team-amtes from Culcairn and he certainly wouldnt be an option to return there after hearing their thoughts on him.Maybe the new coach may have a differnt opinion but it will be interesting to see if he plays and how he goes.

one would be silly to say " a lot" of quality RHG. yeah Aaron won't be at Yack next year but lets face it, his heart is really not into footy any more. the big fella's words himself. playing Senior footy since he was 15, i don't blame him either.
in terms of "losses", they will "lose" One player out of the top 10 in the B&F, and that is Jazz who is injured and out for god knows how long?
i agree with you on the WHY TALLANGATTA?? query though.
so far only Hansford is going there, and they re-signed a Coach that got them nowhere last year???

So Fraser's still not maning anyone up!!!! Great to see nothing has changed since i left, guess good players still toweling him up then. When has he ever been on a xmas card list, specially Culcairn. He would almost be past it wouldnt he switch?
