Yeah Sonny is going alright out at the Western, has implemented a few new things, ie; training drills, plans etc than what people have been used to over the past few years, so a new coach has injected a bit of enthusiasm into the club (this is no disrespect to Hurls either who did a great job in his time at the helm of the club). Numbers at training before the crissy break were good, a few new faces, wont mention any names at this stage but Tex is the only signing atm that I can confirm!! Training starts back tonite so will be intereseting to see how many show up for the first nite back after the festive period!!
Regardless of the negative feedback that myself and others at the club have received, Sonny is doing a great job so far and the club is extremely happy with his appointment and the feeling around the club has been fantastic!!
As for those who have left the club, I only know of 4 at this stage (including 1 retirement) which include;
Shane Field - Stawell Wa###rs
Ross Panther - Geelong Area
Tim Kenyon - Woop woop where-ever he has gone
Shaun Hurly - Retirement.........................well at this stage!!
