How does what effect me ? I was only saying the comp starts on that weekend and not at the end of march. Thought some people may have wanted to know when the comp kicked offQuote:

Which will only ever be semi professional until the quality improves enough to attract money/sponsors/exposure. To improve id say the season needs to be longer and more training. Pretty sure you'll find that nearly every team is training before Christmas.Quote:

You know ull well that Daniel was not ushered out of Azzurri
He stood up at Presentation Night and announced he was going overseas , but if he could play , either prior to , or on his return , it would be with CCB . 120 WITNESSES .
So to allude that he may not have been wanted is totally incorrect , and you know .
Big difference between going to Greece and going to the Greeks .
If The Pirate signs Scott Smith from Azzurri this week , surely Hamilton should consider a name change to Hamilton Azzurri .
The Whitebridge based club has been a very happy fishing pond for the Pirate , since 2009 .
Perhaos in a year or two when the PPS comes down to 160 , it may have an effect on this type of recruitment .
Aren't Olympic supposed to have all these great junior teams and youth program ?
So why is it then that everytime their is a hole it is filled from a proven performer from outside ?
It is a wonder some young playert or parent has blown up at treat .
Haven't you retired from Azzurri MR TULLQuote:

Obviously there is something amiss at the club for so many players wanting out. Hopefully the new regime can fix up the mess the old regime has left the club in. Especially if Scott Smith leaves. Himself and Goodchild are 2 players i never thought would leave the club but have both walked out in the space of 12 months ?? Why is this Ned ?
Being directly involved at the club, I wont comment on the list above, except two of them are back in 2017, and three others would be welcomed back, our squad is all but full with a couple of spots saved for some certain people, which are high on negotiations and priority, and if you want to hear from the horses mouth we have signed everyone of our top 20 for 2017 bar three, one we wont, one retired and the other I am confident we will KEEP before the end of the week. Something this GO FORWARD club is proud of.... cheersQuote:

Latest Transfer news?
Well apparently the pirate is after Scott smithQuote:

Seems as though he'd like to acquire and reunion the pair. I don't blame him, to be honest i think goody and Scott Smith have been the best striking combination in the league that I've seen. A little bit reminiscent of Cole and York :sparring::sparring:
The Baby Piglet
You are spot on about Smith & Goodchild . Smith has certainly missed playig with Goodchild . And Azzurri will certainly miss Smith if he ends up leaving .
Why coaches follow every trend on TV is beyond me.
One up front , no marking posts on corners . What next ?
What's people's predictions for next season would like to hear some people's opinions on it and why, does anyone think there could be a few surprise teams that didn't perform so well last year that might be a dark horse next season?

Charlestown - 8th to 11th
Lakes - 8th to 11th
Weston - 3rd to 6th
Jets - 1st thinking Jones and Zane will take this comp more serious than previous head coaches and the better youth will stick around as the new head coaches more likely to give them a real chance of progressing to Senior squad.
Charly v Valo Round 1 at Cahill Oval, best play there on the pitch first up I suppose haha
Won't happen. Round 1 will still be in cricket season at the beginning of March - no chance of playing it at Cahill Oval.Quote:

Edgy, will be interesting, as they also may lose 3-4 influential players- they could slide to 4th.
Agree Apollo, Griff would change things for Jaffas, but I have based my selections on what we know now. Will most likely be different selections altogether come season startQuote:
