Because he is a very skilful player. He said he had wanted to stay on. Now we have a different coach with a different game plan.



Ive noticed a few of you Central folk having a dig at Roy now he has gone. I wouldn't suggest its a coach or coaching issue.

I haven't noticed any digs? Some players have come back that Roy may have not seen them playing much league, as is normal. I think last year we debuted the most amount of players in our history (except 1959). Roy did a great job with the players he had.

I know you are just trolling, but if you knew me you would not ever suggest I would have a dig at Roy. I meant literally exactly what I said, new coach, new game plan. Roy has 7 league premierships plus one reserves premiership as coach, a reserve premiership as a player and a gf as a league player. The new coach has none of that, but he does have a new game plan and he is now the coach.


No not at all. I have read , you probably have too, some comments about players and Roy and a few coming back as he has gone . Can we not comment honestly without being labeled a troll ? Why cant posters open there eyes a bit ?

Exactly. He might be good around the club but let’s be honest, if he’s getting a game in the league side then that side ain’t playing finals.


A fair point Spargo but if we kept going the way we were we weren't getting any closer anyway. I said a while back that Ben would've provided valuable experience in the magoos whilst providing an option if we got a few injuries. He wanted to stay at the club knowing basically this and got punted. Hope he hangs around and provides the Pisani boys and like with a bit of guidance.

At that age some big blokes are just maturing. If he was a mid, then yes I'd agree, however as a big bloke you have more chance of making it at this age than a 'normal' player.

Good on him I say.

Especially seeing as some clubs use basketballers, volleyballers or overseas players to fill the void, I think sometimes it's better to go with 'known' quantities rather than unknowns.

Cannot believe it, not again!!! This is why i cancelled my membership last year and for the first time never attended a South game and as i was about to re-sign my membership for 2020 believing our premiership hopes couldn't be crushed again by the AFL i have also cancelled that. So sad that our competition has become such a farce :( .

So why punish Southies? It's not their fault. They need more support not less.
