was announced as coach at a club....

Norm Smith Medallist punted from coaching post

The disgraced name has been dumped just days after winning the position.

Massive community and player backlash and their women's team apparently said they were out altogether if he sets foot in the joint.

 

[Bulldogs 2016]

no the footy grapevine. Same as Murdoch signing.

No from the person concerned that is his intention but of course he has to be registered and I dont believe that it will be that simple

 

[BlackGun1]

Yes cannot condone past actions, Was some time ago and Albert has changed his lifestyle and become a solid citizen from all reports. When is enough enough. No future in the passed.

This isnt people being snowflakes. This is a guy who beat a woman within an inch of her life in a public place. If I played football and that guy came to my club I would be leaving

Beenleigh have such a young list too, last thing they need is a dirtbag like that influencing their young group

 

[Six or One]

I see Wynnum have announced a few new signings.

Does anyone know much about the boys they have signed and if they will help them be competitive with the jump up in grade?

 

[BennyFortyEight]

Hearing Caloundra set to loose a few this year, could be the sliders IMO.

Any idea on who those few are?

Confirmed N Spring to Hinterland. Absolute gun.
M Allman & D Dzufer two more. Word is another 4-5 from GF side. Haven’t heard if they’ve signed anyone though so could be a little premature for sliders tag.

Big get for the Blues, was he originally from there? How confirmed is it? Blues social media has been all about re-signings so far, and looks like they have kept quite a few.

Where are the others headed?

Of course can't say too much until you know the whole picture. Though Caloundra have been pretty quiet on social media

That’s 3 very big outs for that team there then. Would be interesting to see who/if they pick anyone up.

He’s originally from Blues and lives close by so makes sense. Can take the signing to the bank, I’m surprised they haven’t announced it yet.

Other two are walking away from footy.

maybe the reason Hinterland asked for more points

 

[StillGotIt]

Plenty of time for announcements, we are still every bit of 5 months until the season. Some clubs haven't even started preseason yet

Did they really ask for more points? You'd think not necessary given the players being retained and also that they haven't exactly struggled on field lately

Yeah they did. They maxed out every week last year and had to leave senior players in the reserves because they couldn't fit. Half their luck. They are in a sweet spot being the only Div 2 club on the Coast. Anyone doesn't want to play QAFL for Noosa wont drive to caloundra but they may drive to Palmwoods

Be amazed if they receive extra points after finishing runners up.Could understanding enquiring for more if you couldn’t win a game or finished at the bottom!And Spring is a great pick up.Been a bloody good player on the coast!We lost a few initially to Nambour but none to my knowledge saw out the journey!Not sure if Danny O’Brien is still involved but if not that would be a reason.Hearing Alik Magin heading out to Nambour also.Will dominate that comp! Only just won the league medal in the Ballarat Football League!If true also a great get.

If thats the case they'll have some quality senior players missing out on games. Lets see how that goes for them.

 

[freddyfudrucker]

Ipswich had extra points after playing in 2 GF’s and a prelim in 3 years.

Imagine adding a thirds team is probably related.

Though probably just reflecting the general population boom across the Coast since covid, the region might end up supporting 3 extra Friday teams with a 4th already knocked back.

 

[StillGotIt]

What is justification for points concessions in general anyway?

You'd imagine difficulty recruiting and retaining players, lack of competitiveness, lack of juniors. Any others?

Think the last one would be the only legit criteria.

Yeah how did that get through?? Weird.

 

[StillGotIt]

As in, that's the only actual one they will give a concession for or it just should be?

 

[the7thranger]

Won't be taking it as fact until it is confirmed. However, if it is true, additional points shouldn't be accepted based on the fact they have a number of 1 point players on their list. In my view, this is just a request to allow higher point players for a side that have already proven their capability. Need to focus on developing jrs now...

 

[smy1305]

I think its the only one that should ever be taken into consideration.

Is anyone able to share a generic/anonymised version of this "Individual Development Plan" that's been mentioned? This type of resource, along with physical conditioning tips/sessions/benchmarks, would be the kind of thing I imagine the AFL/QAFL/Academies should be seeking to distribute widely to engage and empower this junior footy community and help create the rising tide that lifts all boats. Even if they don't have the manpower to properly implement and execute these IDPs with the 20/50/100 players in their squad simply making it available does have value in and of itself...wonder if the people in charge think along those lines...
