Re: Official GVFL thread

Interested to hear the footy communities opinion on Ky's new coach William's?? whats he like as a bloke, coach and professional ??? is he just out to make a quick buck as a coach for a year or 2 then just piss off or is he at Ky for the long haul to get them back up the ladder!!!

haha, that's funny.

You know, bar his first year or two at Rochy (out of 16 seasons), he refused payment and was the club's number one sponsor through his business. He simply loves coaching, and that's why he's taken this job on.

Away from football, he's a terrific bloke. In football, he's totally professional and very thorough in his research and preparation. Very hard, but also fair on his players. Treats everyone equal, which the better players with an ego can have trouble with at times.

I reckon Ky needs stability and they should be looking at trying to keep Dirty for 3-5 years. Keep hearing of the locals and the young kids coming through and he has already dealt with this at Rochester a few times.
I dont think you will fin a better coach in country vic but his passion and want for players to rise can sometimes make him look like a dill and a little heavy handed with his comments
Once again if KY can hold him for 3-5 years I could almost guarantee finals with a realistic chance to win one.

Agree with MBP. He certainly is not in coaching for money. Has been proved over the last 15 years.

I agree totally with your comments. From what i have heard dirty is doing the job for virtually nothing. The guy has nothing to prove and has taken on a huge job with Ky considering where they are at. I think Ky have done the right thing in appointing him and he has agreed to two years at least at the club. word is the Ky camp couldn't be happier with him and the way he is going about things. would think that finals footy is a way off but he will lay the ground work for this in years to come.

If you go back to October-ish you'll find some fantastic conversation about Dirty Williams. But I did hear during the week he is coaching Ky for free too. I'm not sure whether to believe it though.

Lobb set to play for Roos
Rob Harris


Rochester forward Phil Lobb will return to Bendigo Football League next season with Kangaroo Flat.
Lobb, who kicked a combined 132 goals in the 2005 and 2006 seasons for Eaglehawk, joins a rejuvenated Roos outfit which will be coached by former Colbinabbin coach Darryl Wilson.

Among the Kangaroos' recruits are are former Barooga player Tyrone Downie, who has been played with VFL club Bendigo Bombers and former Shepparton footballer Tim Kelly.

Lobb struggled to make an impact with the Tigers last season after an impressive start, and left the club towards the end of the season to play with the Bombers' reserves.

``We're rapt with Phil because he had committed to us when we hadn't really got our off-field structure in place yet,'' Wilson said.

``He played a reserves game for the Bendigo Bombers last year and kicked six goals and I was impressed with the way he went about it.

``So we approached Phil and he thought he had something to offer Bendigo football again, and he is going to be a great acquisition for us.

``We also think Tyrone Downie will push forward and provide us with another option.''

Meanwhile, Mark Adamson will coach Golden Square in the Bendigo league this year.

Adamson has been appointed non-playing coach after Jeff Brennan took the Bendigo Bombers' general manager position.

Former Bendigo Bombers captain Nick Carter will be a playing assistant to Adamson.

Re: Official GVFL thread

What happend there?
Was told M.Clayton was the only one leaving!
Not good timing to loose players like that this time of the year, will be hard to replace now.....

Well M.Clayton has moved to the Geelong area and will be playing for Grovedale where David Mensch currently plays and coaches. Im not to sure the full reasons behind Hyatt, King and Pascoe for leaving. As for myself its due to work commitments.

Dave williams is perfect for what kyabram want, he is passionate about his football and would be in for he long haul. Any one who has spoken to dirty realises he has a smart football brain and wouldnt take on a challenge he didnt think he could succedd

This is a classic. How long until he throws the towel in at this club. Didn't last too long at Rochy from all reports. Can anyone tell me the truth to whether his last game there was in the reserves?

Re: Official GVFL thread

There's an update on Rochy FC in the local paper up there today. Here's some of the on-field report:

Around 25 to 30 players have been attending training on Monday and Wednesday nights, with the main aims a solid fitness base and attention to detail with ball skills.

Senior coach Daniel Schmidt and assistant coach Clint Whitsed have introduced new enthusiasm to the group and, with new faces at the club, there is an air of excitement over Rochester Recreation Reserve.

New inclusions are Ben Duscher (Balranald), Sam O'Brien (Bendigo Bombers), Brad Collins (Port Melbourne/Numurkah) and Jake Perry (Rushworth), while Steven Rasmussen has returned to the club.

With negotiations closing with two more players, the club is confident of fielding a competitive unit.

I can confirm that the only good source (sauce) to come out of Tat is tomato from Rosella, so reveal your Craig Hutchison.

Singh seeking new home
Tom Biddington


Balraj Singh, the Goulburn Valley Football League's leading goal-kicker in 2006, is eyeing off a return to the region _ he just needs to find a club that wants him.
The 25-year-old kicked 110 goals for Balranald last season, but said the four-hour drive from Melbourne was too much and was keen to ply his trade in the Goulburn-Murray.

``I really enjoyed my time playing for Mooroopna and in the GVFL, which is probably the best country league around,'' Singh said.

``So I'd love to return to the area and play footy for a club in the GVFL or Murray Football League.''

Players capable of kicking 100 goals in a season are rare, with only Benalla's Ricky Symes and Seymour's Saad Saad being able to accomplish the feat in the GVFL in the past four years.

Singh was part of Balranald's team that lost the Central Murray Football League Grand Final to Tooleybuc-Manangatang.

``I went up there with four mates last year, but it's double the distance than Shepparton, and both the GVFL and Murray Football Leagues are a better standard,'' he said.

``It was in the last week I decided I didn't want to go back there this year, so I just want to see if there are any clubs around the region who would be interested in having me.

``Key forwards are difficult to find at times and hopefully there's a club that needs one.

``I work on the wharfs down in Melbourne, so I've been training by myself in the past few weeks, just keeping fit.''

Singh was the first Indian ever to be drafted by an AFL club when he was selected by Adelaide with pick 79 in the 1999 draft.

He played his junior footy with SANFL club West Adelaide.

Went there with his 4 mates named 2, 0, 00 and dollars but you cant forget that really good bloke that looks after him each year named per game.

I heard on the grape vine that he rang Shepp Swans and said he wanted to have a kick this year with them, he then asked how much they would pay him, Shepp Swans replied with $300 because that is their cap. Singh then said surely you can give me more then that! this bloke is the biggest mercenary getting around! He asked then if there would be any other clubs in the area who might want him. Barooga was mentioned but he said they were out of money.

Swans cap is $300!!! What a joke, please dont make laugh to hard.. That is the funniest thing Ive heard. The day the Swans cap is $300 is the day Shane Whitelaw finally plays seniors at Euroa!!

Also, Barooga out of money.. That will be the day.. They have to much money in their bank account and would be more than willing to spend it on Singh.
