tuckey-south adelaide

[gazza]

I posted a note before christmas that Tuckey wanted away from south and was willing to take a 50% wage cut.Now the rumour is South have told him he cannot go and the first thing he does is report us for under the table bungs.Sour grapes or truth.

Old news knew be for xmas , hes playing for southport in 06 and the eagles in 07

[ORDoubleBlues]

Both Gazza. Think you'll find his missus was the one that encouraged him to dob South in as she has got a job transfer to Brisbane, hence him wanting to play for Southport.

Oh, so the dope munster69 is on here as holden78. Stupidnumber1 would be a more appropriate name.

just to give perhaps a different slant on it i would say tuckey is going overseas this year and has no idea whom he is paying for in 2007 and may not be the rat in the ranks either

Care to elaborate on who is Phantom?

If that's the case, that is interesting Phantompanther as one of his South teamates that I spoke to certainly felt that it was Tuckey.

i'm quite open to him perhaps to being the person that has caused this hassle (there have been other hassles lol) i just heard a possible alternative scenario. i could also be wrong on the not playing at all next year but we shall see. it's a pretty good source indeed without saying too much

[phantompanther]

we do owe a couple of people a buck or two , a few might have gripes

[sus]

It was Tuckey!!!

Speaking of South Adelaide, does anyone know who is coaching their reserves team this year. Spoke to a player before christmas and they were yet to appoint anyone leaving things a bit late arn't they...?

Dunno, I had a look on the South website but couldn't find details.
I did find their mission statement though:

“The South Adelaide Football Club, through a focus on Australian Football, provides to people within the Southern Region of Adelaide and beyond, a sporting and cultural experience which reflects the Australian way of life.”

Correct me if I'm wrong but shouldn't it be to win premierships or have they given up on that?
Are they running a charity, a social workers workshop or a football club?

You are joking me - some one please from panther land please tell them to wake up or something-something.

I actually am starting to feel sorry for you

I think i read somewhere that its Darren Mead.

Pieces fit. Wants to go somewhere else, South (within there legal right) so no. His partner is up in brisbane, so he just dobs south in.

I can't believe that.

As a fanatical Bays supporter I know with my club's performance over the past 10 years I am on shaky ground but still here goes:

It has continued to amaze me since Centrals got their shit together in 1992 under Stewart why South couldn't do the same. I see the same key similarities between South and Centrals:

Relatively strong metro league to draw on: BLG and SL (in fact South should do better as Centrals only has a the BLG (1/2 country 1/2 metro where as South have the SFL and GSFL within 1 hrs drive of their home ground)
Similar population demographics - City of Onkaparinga prides itself on being the biggest council in SA hence they charge my old man such high rates for living at Aldinga!!!
combination of mortgage belt and housing trust
Similar Socio economic status - no jokes please
Similar pokie competition

So what have South been doing, if I was a South supporter I would be asking some serious questions of my admin to ask why we at least haven't been making finals as we should at least be doing as well financially as Centrals and that then helps us buy and develop players.

Before I get bombarded by the South supporter(s) YES I do re-acknowledge my club hasn't done well over the past 10 years and I'm not happy about that either. Also I acknowledge Glenelgs mission statement is similar to Souths but the Vision statement is all about being the most successful and professional club in SA - YES I know we aren't there yet!!

OK you SOUTHS supporters let loose the dogs of war, INCOMING!!!!!!

I thought he was their full time football manager?

[qwerty]

who would appoint the reserves coach then, would it be up to the senior coach or the board?

[stan]

On this whole Tuckey thing, I still noticed that he has not been listed as an out on the ins and outs page. By the sounds of things its a sure bet he wont be down at panther land this season.
