While i can't speak for what Brighton do, i can confirm this kind of garbage of what is basically kid poaching is very real in the junior leagues. I know it's happened to a number of different clubs, including rosewater and even para hills. Few years back when Fitzroy decided to make some changes from the bottom up, as in right down from U7s onwards to rebuild the base, The club let a number of junior coaches go. Those coaches ended up a specific club, and then the club caught one of them literally in the club car park handing out their card to parents AND kids telling to "come to a better club". Literally in the carpark. Needless to say once he was seen he jumped in the car and out the club before it got nasty.

This was happening with SANFL clubs too, pushing talent that lower clubs had noticed and provided to SANFL development squads, by suggesting they needed to go specifically named higher division clubs to get noticed. Those SANFL clubs had people connected to the "specific" clubs they were telling them to go to. I Know of people who personally have a text chat or a phone call advising they are leaving or can't come back because they got sold bright lights and dubious promises. I even have the proof of it.

I know that the SANFL has worked hard to pressure SANFL clubs not to do it anymore, but you'll always have some people who winning is the be all and end all, at the expense of the clubs trying to build themselves a solid base. Afterthesiren is right, It's pretty disgusting.

This has happened at Ingle Farm - one bloke didn't get re-appointed as a junior coach, cracked the sads, rang all the parents and got them to follow him to another club.

What do you do as the club where he is newly appointed. Do you just let it happen or do you tell him you don't agree with it??

Affirmative. Don't know anything other than the official line of not enough time while raising a young family (and have no reason to disbelieve this).

Shame, given that last year was pretty much a wash I was very impressed with his time

Sorry jo172, I’m not a rumour monger but being involved in Div 1 this year I was impressed with what I saw from Bodey this year, I get that it would have been difficult juggling a family, playing as a top up player for Port and committing full time at the Falcons, but all thru that he still put you in a GF. Kudos to him, great respect to him.

Otis Carthy is number 8 for Brighton. Outstanding marking defender who goes under the radar a bit.

Otis Carthy is a jet. Is a very good kick on both feet. Very surprised he didn’t make it at Glenelg. I had a little bit to do with him at 18’s but Tyson Edwards didn’t rate him and refused to play him. I hope he has another crack at SANFL as I reckon he would go very well at that level.

Heard through the grapevine ROCS are also looking for a new coach?
