Absolute champ and a massive pick up for Ramco if true. Will still tear it up in his mid 40's

Lox Nth at the moment aren't playing as a team, gave away a heap of 50 metres penalty's thru a lack of discipline, but in saying that the young roo's are playing a good brand of footy, everyone played their part on Saturday

2010 was the beginning of the Wooldridge coaching era, might have happened that year. Definitely in '09 it happened regularly - I played in a couple.

I've been reliably informed that during Woolly's tenure, the highest losing margin by North was 78 points. I think in the first year.
So, possibly, the last time it happened was against Loxton in '09 when Pete Smith bagged about 10 and the margin was somewhere closer to 30 goals.
Mac Grummet was the coach, at the time. That match was pretty much the end for the big fella.

What's the go with Willy getting the arse from Paringa? If it's true he got the flick from what i heard, that's piss weak from the swans. If what happened is true, i reckon any other bloke would have done the same thing as Willy. The other bloke is the one who should have got his arse kicked.

Whole situation seems a bit nuts to me, disappointing club & coach couldn't kiss & make up & get back to season at hand.
If you can keep your head when all around you have lost theirs, then you probably haven't understood the seriousness of the situation.

The club needs to get a grip on this Willy situation and steer clear of just paying lip service.
