Luke Butterworth Redbacks' new bowling coach

Good choice he was a clever bowler whos been in coaching system for a while since retiring. Former Australian batsman to be announced as batting coach.

Woodville's Josh Hoffman will be heading back to Port Adelaide next season. He had a couple disciplinary issues last season and there must be a fair bit of friction still there between him, the club and coach Sam McNally. Pretty surprised Port have taken him back though, talented player but pretty shocking between the ears, particularly off field.

Did someone say he'd hurt his knee playing football?

yep back in April......

One of my mates at Broadview also said Josh Hoffman may be out for a decent period of time with a knee injury sustained playing footy, this is likely to affect his cricket, at least the first half of the season.

I've been hearing Blewett, that might just be because he's in town though.

Greg Blewett a real possibility I think.... needs to stay closer to home a bit more these days to manage his son's golf career

[The Hound]

Believe he was in and out of the HP unit offices earlier this year!

[Tony Clifton]

Could they package up a Redbacks/Strikers role for him?

Looks like some clubs may need to familiarise themselves with the rules regarding recruiting under 18's

Could be some interesting conversations among coaches this weekend, especially all being in the same room . No need to go to the bomb shelter yet H31

The Wharfie$ very active again

Would any club really try and stop (refuse to clear) an under 18 from leaving? Knowing that they can do little to stop it occurring anyway, if the kid is financial.

Yes

[Tony Clifton]

Trying to poach 16 or 17 year olds is a bit off I reckon. It's one thing if they approach another club but being targeted out of the blue? Some kids can get turned by 'the thrill of the chase.' Having someone pump up their tyres, wax lyrical about how good they are, promises of playing in whatever grade. Good for the ego. Perhaps not great for them as a cricketer or as a person though.

Is this referring back to Woodville trying to poach young Josh Hoffman from Bays?
