I doubt that heavily. after just having spoke to sources at the club, they say he is staying put!
From what ive heard, i doubt any club would be as easy to get a contract at than Marion was in 2010![]()
Hold that thought......maybe Lonsdale 2011

(to go with all the others this year)
Apparently a player failed to show up for A grade game after training &being named Thursday.
Some rumours are gathering momentum that a core group of the last loyal players will be moving on next year.
I'm calling it now that Marion won't field two sides next year.
Surely the people running the club have to be made accountable for the demise of the mfc. You cant have 10 years of bad luck!! A coach can only do so much. With the amount of long term players leaving the club over the years as well as not being able to keep gun recruit paid players the culture must be the main concern. From winning a flag in 2000 to where the club is now it is an absolute disgrace!! Who does the buck stop with????

A few others in doubt.
Take into account the guys who walked this year.
W. Bilney, K. Bilney, T. Lynch, R. Jones, R. Tregonning, Shard
The points system will not allow Marion to cover these guys all A graders.
IF Marion field two sides next year they will be beaten by Aldinga & Hawks.
Sad demise for a once powerful club of the 90s.

Certaintly sounds like ITM is an ex player, who has obviously left the club on a sour note, or is using this to find a reason to their decision to leave, other then the fact they took up Paid contracts at other clubs,when they clearly arent worth it and are too embarrassed to admit it! Year in,year out,players come and go in every team, so Marion are looking forward to some new faces,which will mean a change in attitude to how things operate.
For all those who have left to challenge themselves at a higher level, good luck, and your always welcome back at any time!
For the others well....good luck,hope the money is good, ill be looking in the reserves best players lists on Sundays for your names!
And if ITM is one of those players mentioned above and usually posts under another user name, this is a weak attack at a time where the club is trying to recruit and build from the mess it was last year!

FYI
the assistant coach- wasn't really an assistant, i.e he didn't do anything but hang around, and has a history of bouncing around clubs and not seeing out the year- verdict no loss
tregoninng- average B grade player at brighton coming off the bench for marion asking for money
B Smith- retired therefore always going unless was appointed coach
Bilneys- wes was a class player, but with his brother in toe was more trouble than it was worth
Neary/Undies- came for money left for money but a shame as they held their heads up
Turner- talented but had not put it all together yet and was getting paid on potential. shame he is gone as will become a fine player and is a ripper bloke
Andrews- worst 200 a game since rob leyton- no loss
Flaherty/A knight- peripheral players who wanted money but rarely performed to a high enough standard- see helicopter kings' sunday results remark
D Knight- just an honest player, but in recent times is not playing an honest game
personally the disenchantment some of these players have is the responsibility of the club and the coach. the club would not disagree if it was asked had it made some howling mistakes. its a shame the new coach cant get a chance to stamp his own flavour on it. but perhaps they are scared about actually being coached, given honest constructive feedback, and not being allowed to try and play like millionaires

tony i think is a good player. versatile and athletic. what i heard, and this is 2nd hand so take it at face value, he was a bit disenchanted with the way marion was going. not how he remembered it from a junior. then he had a fall out with the coach and ex told him not to worry playing out the rest of the year
the footy manager told me they were hopeful of him staying now that there was a new coach. have you heard any different

Most of the a grade group from this year (including the ones who have already) have left or are about to including a lot of b graders even. I think their new coach may need to submit a c grade only or sell off the facilities just finished to buy in some cattle.
