have heard ex Plympton / Morphie Pks / Edwtwn etc etc player D.Hibberd ass coach Glenelg Ressies 2012 / interesting appt. thoughts ? anyone[/quote]
Shocks the bejesus out of me quite frankly.[/quote]

Correct... Curious as to why so shocked Moe?[/quote]
Only because I thought he was heavily involved with Hackham and their rebuilding process. Nothing sinister VC.[/quote]

Wasn't thinking anything or the sort Moe man.

Not surprised by this - Dent and his Senior Operations Manager are completely unprofessional
This Ops Mgr is a running joke amongst the players.

Dent cant retain current players and his promised recruits must still be stuck in traffic

Committee must have their head in the sand or else they are too proud to say they may a mistake

Would be surprised to see Dent there in 2013


Yet it seems that with the exception of 2 players, that they have retained all from last year and recruited well for 2012. True that they were disappointing last year, but In expect to see Valleys back up in contention next year.

Have heard Chad Norsworthy returning to his home club in the BL&G, Willaston for some big money.
Can anyone confirm this move?

Gee, all a bit quiet on the forum front, all clubs would be nearly back into it or some into it for the first time for the upcoming season. Lets get to the bottom of the juice. Who has confirmed ins/outs? Surely if they are signed you can mention or alternatively if they have left, so spill your guts.

Only really solid intel I have received over the break is now old news, but i'll repeat for the purpose of getting things started -
Wineys -
Bradshaw, Ciampa, Farrier - Keith
McKeough - Ardrossan
Ware - Meningie

5 substantial outs there could see them drop back a peg or 2 or hopefully further. Don't believe the Rigney to RMFL rumour for 1 second. Have Happy Valley lost a heap to Amateurs or wherever else they have been linked to? They have secured a gun midfielder from Lofty though.

Prediction -
Emus
Bombers
$hoe$
Pigs
Cobras
Winey$
Vikings
Divers

We will consider Sugg as a 2nd stringer then, think he may have played a B or C grade game last year so that fits. Furthermore on Reynella there hasn't been much discussion on here about their new coach. Young and not much of a playing history to speak of. Those that have stayed it has been reported that there could be some "respect" issues forming as to what he has been and done, which will only fester, may well be unfair as i have never met or spoken to the bloke but can see how this could form, we all have to start somewhere, but it is certainly out of the norm to appoint this type of "profile", not saying it's right or wrong so we will let the results speak for themselves and judge Reynella on that. This season will be a changing of the guard down at winefly land i believe with them being around the pointy end for a very long time.

Think we should 'consider' that you know very little about the SFL then Speccy...

Sugg played 15 A Grade Games in 2011, was in the best 7 times and was their Captain... 2nd string? I doubt it!

And the C Grade game that you are speaking about was his first game of the year after recovering from injury...

Sugg will be a big loss, but also hear that Squire is back. He'd be worth what 80 goals? Also would allow Dent to put McKenzie back to his best position at full back. Not sure who the Mt Lofty recruit is, sounds interesting. As I said earlier, can't see Valleys being too far off the pace this year. Time will tell.

Oh dear, perhaps i should've put the rolling eye's emoticon after that first line there reppoh, was simply using Sugg as an example against the earlier comment in relation to "no-one of note" has been lost. I am well aware of this guys capabilities and standing at Happy Valley. :oops: :oops:

Trevor Potts didn't have much of a playing record before he started coaching, by no means a pre-requisite.

Speccy if you are well aware of Sugg's capabilities why would you consider him second string?
He is probably not the only player to go with alot of A graders yet to make an appearance at training

However quite a few new faces and Yes Ben Squire coming back which should make some opposition ruckmen nervous
