I heard he applied for the Balwyn job amongst others.
i heard the same thing mouthpiece speaking.

i also heard that j edgar was another failed applicant.
They should have held off. The rumor about Pat Hawkins getting the "boot" was around prior to this appoint being made.

"Pat Hawkins OS Senior Coach" has a better ring about it I would have thought..
i think they put all their eggs in the hibbo basket and were shell shocked when he declined.

also i am not sure whether other commitments would allow pat to coach solo.

i agree though scotchies should have looked further although there is not a huge amount of coaching talent readily available.

any whispers of any big ins/outs trade whispers??

Coming down from premier, Carey seem to content they will retain most of their list with some possible handy inclusions.

A few murmurs coming from the snakepit that some names are on their way to the cashed up nearby EDFL clubs which could set them back, but only time will tell.

let the silly season begin!

It would seem at least one and maybe another have committed to an EDFL club close to The Pit but am hearing that another EDFL club is also preying on the Snowdog Premier B carcass so there might be more that are taking up the $$$$$ on offer.

Kazuro and Schroeder seem to be gone to the EDFL. More to follow.

Kazuro and Schroder off to Doutta stars and another top liner midfielder off to Strathmore is the word atm, nothing confirmed just yet though.

Probably not the last with some of the outlandish figures that these EDFL clubs are apparently offering
 
Sullivan athletics, Peart EDFL, Hughes twins VFL, Cook travel and Bentick retired are not playing either. I've also heard Simon Caven may play at Strathmore.
They will pick up the coaches son from Old Haileybury and a couple who travelled o/s last year.

geez you'd hope they pick up some!! thats a fair list to make up

They are too well drilled to double drop but you're right, this is a massive gap in talent that they need to plug or they're not coming back up to A Grade anytime in the foreseeable future (or even playing B Grade finals for that matter).

If this is the case....it will make OS's job of finishing top 2 a lot easier. As it is at the moment they (OS) are no certainties either.
New Coach with heap of "probables"..........

So just the one team in Premier A (Xavs), one team in Premier B (Panthers) and one team in Premier C (Bears) - fits perfectly.

Amazed Canada has not been been pumping up the good news coming from Panther land. New recruits committing along with long absentees returning e.g Reid and Rimmington. Several youngsters who had a poor start through long term injury are now a big part of #generationnext and eager for preseason to begin. Some very handy recruits already on board for 2017. Going to be very exciting season. My very very very very early tip is Panthers will be in the 4 come finals time.

Havent heard much mail out of Carey this off season. Looking good. Hoping Rooster can get me back in the fold before round 1. Im right on the bandwagon Carlton.

Correct Penski and this article puts those departures in context. They did not get much out those players last year for a combination of reasons (Kazuro is a PEGS boy I think?). Even Sullivan, who is a star, had limited impact last season due to injury.

While they did get relegated they were in most games and lost quite a few by small margins. Were an 8 -10 goal better side than Carey and if they keep their core will still be a threat in B grade.

Having said that I think most would enjoy a few years free of a trip to the Pit.

Saw Mark Lock and Sam Crocker are playing at Carey next season. Both very handy senior VFL players in a good to very good side for several years.

Wow.

Good gets! Carlton tells us Reid and Rimmington are back, plus I know Ceppi from Vermont is also down there. Perhaps Carltons tip of a finals birth may be accurate.

Agree the Snowdogs outs names look rediculously bad, but input from them was minimal last year and they were a decent team. They are still favourites IMO.

Perhaps Carey, Brighton and Scotch to round it out.

With Scotch choking come finals time.
 
Peart played 9 games and was one of their best players in those matches, that's half a season. Schroder 6 and one of their guns, Boyse a star the year before and Kazuro in their absolute 10 best players.
The point is they will not play one game between the four of them, neither will Sullivan, probably Bentick if what I hear is to believed plus several who want to play VFL. So much for Reilly saying in the local rag two weeks ago no one was leaving.
Let's also remember they struggled to win 5 games in 2016.
