Why didn't they have to produce a list of current registered players of 55 like some other clubs months before. Everybody on here was aware that they where in trouble but the club didn't think so, time will time but this should have been worked out at least a month before. Is this like other clubs buying a flag then falling over the next year as they over payed what they can afford?
1. It's definitely not about money.
2. From what ive heard its the Chairman who's f##ked up big time.
3. Apparently hired his mate cabbage before last years finals and 4. when bamford won the gf he couldn't get rid of him for obvious reasons.
5. Then bamford pulled the pin about a month after presentations because of family reasons. 6. So the Chairman appointed cabbage without advertising and they would have got a couple of good applications after just winning the gf.
7. Now players have heard all this and walked because cabbage wasn't the right fit. Hardly has a good cv plus been out of coaching for a while.
8. They reinstated the b grade coach from last year. Now all the c graders from last year dont get along with b grade coach so they all walked too.
9. Now chairman is blaming everyone else but him.
1. persistent rumours regarding player payments / promises not being met - so maybe money is an issue
2. correct in that whole committee dropped the ball & suppose the buck rests with the chairman
3. incorrect wasn't hired before finals & they are not mates, nor aquaitenances before the appointment, advertised for b grade & cabbage applied & appointed
4. if GF won bamford would be reappointed if lost they were going to advertise
5. family reasons or got wind that players were leaving and opted out of what was going to be a hard year
6. cabbage was appointed as b grade coach then asked if he would take a grade when bamford pulled the pin correct in that the position wasn't advertised but would have to wonder what candidates would be left around November but not to say there weren't any overlooked
7. players had already left in droves before cabbage was appointed
8. believe plan was bamford stays flick b grade coach as not well liked amongst playing group, bamford goes keep b grade coach, bamford bailed, cabbage appointed from b's to a's & b grade coach reinstated as didn't want to potentially upset the apple cart & lose his partner from treasurers position & correct in that c grade players didn't like him & wouldn't play under him & would rather leave
9. correct in that using cabbage as scape goat for his & committees poor decisions and planning
10. what does all this mean...there up the creek without a paddle due to poor business practices and only have themselves to blame!
