HFL Division 2 (Country)

[seaess]

kersbrook have lee hughes back, brad lees from tv and a ruckman from amateurs
r james wont play much and they dont have a home oval at this stage
the day nairne do anything will be when they stop being a social club and realise they are a football club
hey Tex you are in the know on alot of things you a club insider or just in the loop?

i think nairne will surprise a lot of people this year.. the attitude has changed at the club seaess. as long as we have some luck with injuries for once.

trouble is raz7 when nairne do get injuries they fall in a heap and whinge rather than battle through.
all clubs get a run of injuries sometime during the year look at TV last year struggled mid year all back for finals

good call. but i do recall nairne pumping TV on their home ground second too last round i think it was. nairnes new players only started too gel together the last 4 or five rounds which was disapointing. but they are all staying for this year along with a handful of new players.
I would tip nairne for a top three finish. Nairne beating TV at end of season may of been the kick in the @ss TV needed to fire them up for finals.

I heard echunga club was told he was applying and would be in their best interests to appoint him
some locals not too happy

Do you know what happened to Greg Robins seaess? Did he go on his own terms? Hope so as he's a good bloke

I overheard Echunga pres telling robbins that they were advertising all positions except a grade and that he would have to reapply
my understanding is Bawden wanted Wyatt in the job

he said he wasn't enjoying it.. fair bit of travel i suppose for a 16 year old with no license. Not sure wether he will go back down next year. I think he will surprise a few people this year at the rams. I think the man child better concentrate on helping us win a premiership in the cricket before he worries too much about footy haha

i really hope your right nairne have really been under achivers since coming back to country be good to have some close games against nairne maybe the top 6 or 7 will be closer than first thought???

Whisper out of Lobethal, is that one of Torrens Valleys more controversial footballers responded to Lobey's SOS call for players in the Sunday Mail a few weeks back. Turns out that one of the TV Godfather favourite sons was looking to betray him and join another club to which his offer was declined. After all what the Godfather has done for him in recent times, imagine the ramifications if he found this out.

i think the country division is really starting too get a hell of a lot stronger, i wonder how long til birdwood drops back down
maybe anotheryear of being pumped every game will be enough for them. then they will come back too the country division and get the same hidings they were getting in central..

Correct me if I'm wrong but weren't Nairne Birdwood's whipping boys - what was it, 3 prelim's in a row??

And then Birdwood left and what did Nairne do??

agreed gimp... i sure dont remember nairne beating birdwood a lot... if ever! considering how badly country div is going, lets be honest here gum, cally both on the verge of folding, blackwood without a side anymore... looks like birdwood we're the smart ones and got into a decent div while they could!

I dont think Gum's are even looking at that, they have been very proactive during the off season has indicated in the courier a few backs. I also believe they are planning some other initatives to be released very soon.

[luvayarn]

how is the great Ash Barnett going, if you listened to him it would be good , but in real footy terms has he managed to recruit anyone yet or is his mighty eagles going to struggle.

[zedman]

spot on rooster about making the right move to div 1 the only mistake you guys made was not having a side good enough to match the move,the top 5 in div 2 would be more competitive up there

[seaess]

anyone got any info on macclesfield..new coach??..players??

Maccy- Shane Mitchell kicked out of previous club for indiscretion not the right man to coach at a struggling club alot of departures the noose is starting to tighten

[zedman]

so the country division has two struggling clubs... fair enough.... but all i was getting at is the top 6 maybe seven teams are definately closing the gap between country and central divisions.
how have birdwood benefited at all from going up except thats they had the asses handed too them every week, and i cant see that changing much this year..

Has Shane Mitchell been kicked out of every club he has coached?

I remember a few years ago when he was coaching O'Sullivans Beach, he king hit a 16 or 17 year old playing in their first or second senior match. IIRC a massive fight broke out and the game was called off!!

Classy bloke, I hope Maccy know what they're in for.
