Word on the street is Lakes signed a new coach last night.
Don't know who but supposedly a big name.

wonder if last name is walker ?
IMHO:
1. Toronto (haven't been there for a while but the ground/atmosphere is good and they need the money)
2. Lake Macquarie (played O/35 Finals there last Friday and the surface was good)
3. Valentine (all a bit old but still very functional)
4. The Gardens (as long as it isn't a night game and the dogs are in their kennels ;-)

Rumour has it Cooks Hill have a new coach for next year.
You have heard right. Cookers have a new assistant and a new coach for 23's as well. I don't know who but Blake has names down that he wants to bring to the club and he has been present at out 17's/19's finals series matches as well. Have spoken to him and the assistant and seems like the club has serious ambitions for 2016 and beyond which is great to see. I'm a firm believer that all New-FM teams should be aiming for success and the ones that are right with the status quo (not naming them but two in particular) really will be left behind if they don't pull the finger out.
Pretty sure it was A'town 19's he coached. I'm only new over the last two years into the Cookers camp so don't know Max but have heard the club's very happy to have him back and it'll certainly be good to have a specialist 23's coach rather than the system we had this year with the captain/coach or whatever they had going (bench was always fairly quiet). Hoping he gives the younger guys a chance in 23's. I know the pitch is getting work done on it and the club seem ambitious so definitely agree that Cooks Hill will be a club to watch in 2016 and beyond. I think there'll be more teams fighting for finals next year than there were this season.
Strong reports that Riley (ranga) is signing from jaffas, waiting for confirmation on player wage demands
Hopefully they can gel and show there full potential....
Just a little rumour I heard floating around
The mystery assistant? Not sure about that apparently it is fairly well known, coached the 22s at stags last year??
Just so this is official:-
Warren has moved on to doing another role in the club, more involved with our Juniors.
I believe Blake and Warren will be working together with Junior programs in the club.
Warren spoke well at the Presentation last night about the future of the club
and we're happy to have him on board.
On that note. It was an honour to be MC with Warren and Joel in the room together.
Anthony Richards coaching lakes
Any word on coaching staff and players for South Cardiff for next year? I haven't read much about their player retention for next year?
let's not behave like dickheads
otherwise you can take the off season off
From reading The Herald 3 have gone to Weston, 2 to Adamstown, 1 to Kahibah assuming there all 1st graders that would be a big blow to there campaign to regain there place in NPL.
Had a coach been confirmed? What happens to the NPL kids now those teams will be disbanded?
Andrew Clark is now head coach, the guy that played for the Mariners and was with the Jets as a trainer for about 5 minutes. Think was 19s coach this year.
I assume would enter teams in A grade. If they are serious about going straight back up it wouldn't make much sense to disband their junior teams for a season and then have to recruit more players for the following year.
