Very interesting choice by Gawler Centrals... I guess it remains to be seen how he can inspire his unit to elevate themselves from being the perennial bridesmaid to the bridesmaid...

Also on other recruiting news, the Barossa Bull pups have reportedly signed Josh Berrett from South Clare... big strong full forward with a dead eye kick...

I can assure you that Mick has been approached by the SANFL for that vacant position. His time as a wicket keeper / batsman during SA's most formidable era at both state and district level has opened alot of doors in football circles.
The SANFL could do alot worse then having Mick in charge of this department , the future of SA football would be in safe hands .... even for a old washed champion district cricketer.

Would he have been lured with a hefty pay packet Ed ?

Barossa Districts dont want to follow in Kilburns footsteps and find themselves further in financial trouble.
I was informed on the weekend how Kilburn recruits are being told they need to provide a $300 sponsor and the playing group has to raise 10K after blowing 75K to finish 3rd in Div 3.

Buying premierships in the BL&G can be done , Barossa Districts & Tanunda have shown that in the last 3 years. The Amateur League is a tougher gig, putting all your eggs in the one basket and not even being able to finish 2nd to go up a grade is recipe for disaster.

From what I understand Hafey he has moved into the broader area and Barossa were the first to get to him... I know a couple of other clubs were sniffing around him... no doubt some form of financial remuneration would have been involved...

I can't comment too much on the amateur league side of things hafey, I do understand that kilburn would be disappointed with their season given the calibre of players they had available...

Hafey FYI Kilburn players have been responsible to get there own personal sponsors for years. YThey also have had to raise a certain amouny of money every year via players concerts etc. yes this money goes into the player payment fund. Amaxes me how you come up with the 75K figure though. Pretty close to the place and I know thats not right.

You are a wanker Hafey. Players at Kilburn have always been asked to get a player sponsor. By the way, the player sponsors get looked after very well for their money. It's a great investment, day of booze and food, photo, name on warm up jacket just to name a few of the benifits.

Furthermore, the players have always been asked to raise some money for the club. The player auction and player show cover a lot of this. I'm sure most clubs do this sort of thing anyway, at Kilburn there is just a target set for the player run shows. This was happening when Kilburn won 3 div 1 premierships too. No fnancial trouble at all, just your jealous rumourmongering.

Kicked out of two clubs, what a decorated career!

If the job involves drinking free piss and handing medals to someone then Mick has the skills to do the job.

If the SANFL actually wants something accomplished by the man in the job, perhaps they should look in another direction. You can't even articulate anything you have accomplished in your time in the BLGFA.

The SANFL couldn't do worse. At least a half blind mongoloid would sit there and do nothing, rather than actively undermining the integrity of the SANFL as you would. Your uninformed, uneducated and frankly sometimes ridiculous comments would damage the SANFL. I have no doubt you will be found out during the interviewing process.

They must all be overpaid if they have to bring their own money in, why not only offer what you can afford and leave the players up to playing football. Perhaps you could try a mystery round where no one gets paid, or is that something the club has also done in the past.

I don't know why we are discussing Kilburn on here but I will humour B1 and B2(Hafey and Stirlo).

There is a $ target for the players to reach. It is about supporting the club as a whole, not just raising money for payments. Don't players raise money at other clubs? Don't other clubs have player sponsors?

What a terrible effort at stirring poo from the bananas in pyjamas.

You all must have your own club functioning that perfectly you need to pick the shit out of everyone else.

Stirlo, you are a classic at it, you win the 'Downlow Award' for saying plenty and achieving nought.

Sounds like more waffle coming from the oger. The money is to cover player payments end of story and no that wouldn't work setting a target for our local players to raise money for paid players, they're just not that gullible.

Very well put Gator-Aid.

Perhaps one of Hafey's proposed initiatives could be to ban players raising money for their clubs. What an obscene practice!
