Norris you must be joking.

Go and have a look at any premiership won by Wests, Parramatta, Balmain and Campbeltown in the last 20 years. Between them they have 7 or 8 flags that were all full of mercenaries.

When the well ran dry and the money ran out, all of the clubs ended up at the bottom within a couple of years and their players were dispersed around the league looking for an earn.


The only exception was when Campbeltown managed to keep the payments up for a couple of years under Bird . When the money ran out so did the players.

Parra sent themselves broke and back to the SFA and the other 3 all have @@@@ cultures and reappear in the finals every now and then after a spending spree.

Long term none of them will ever be any good.

Good to see the Dale Kickett of the SFL last at a club for more than 1 year! Dont know if its just me but KangaCoach seems to be putting a lot of smiley's at the end of his words of wisdom - must be pretty happy with the poaching the club has done. Be interesting to see how he copes with the pressure of early season flag favourites - but he is the supercoach of the comp so im sure he will be fine.......

Can you and your new mate rooboy stop pumping my tyres up with all these comparisons to great players and calling me the super / wonder coach.....going off the accuracy of all your other information I am beginning to believe it.

having watched my roo boys over the last couple of seasons i find it diffuclt to see them change to the Bluebaggers.

All the money they have spent on Withers, Wilson & Moellar, how do they afford new jumpers. (where is the money coming from)

There are the new St.G promiss everything deliver nothing.they don't invest in there young great vision from the blueboys, no wonder Sydney football won't take off!

Expect to see Kanga coach elsewhere next year.

Be sure to come over and say hello next time you are out at Monarch. If you are a bit shy I don't mind meeting you behind the grandstand or in the carpark?

While your down ask the young blokes at Campbelltown how they are enjoying their footy?

Purely for historical accuracy purposes, I can vouch that Parra never went broke and had a pretty good balance sheet up til a few years ago (haven't seen it since). Believe it or not, but it probably was internal politics on how the club should be run was the major cause of the club dropping down to SFA in 1995. And the reason for it continually staying down in SFA was because of a lack of junior program in the area between 1994-2001. The juniors have come along way since but the benefits won't be seen in the senior club for another 7-10 years I reckon.

Re: Rooboy

WHERE IS KANGA COACH NOW. BOYS THE TRUTH IS COMING OUT.

Don't allow Kanga Coach to communicate with anyone in your club. HE IS A FRITZ????

Can you please send me a satchel of the coffee you are consuming. I am not sure whether you would pass a SAFL sanctioned drug test. Firstly you must realise that if this money you speak of on this site is 100% factual you must not post it. This site is strictly non-factual. Secondly I agree with what you say about Hall, overpriced, overpaid and plays like a haemophiliac. The third point regards Withers. I know for a fact he agreed to play with Wests this year. He got up and spoke at B&F night and said how much he loved the club and how we all had to stick together. He should have prefaced his comments by saying we should all stick together unless we can get over $200 a game more at another club. Of course it's a family decision just like Lote Tuquiri will make a decision in consultation with his family regarding his playing future. After he signs for the most money he is of course going to say " I spoke to the family and decided it was in the best interest for my football to go to (Insert Highest Bidder) Club.

Troy, make sure you get the phone list of the comp in NT for Kanga coach.

Soon he won't have any one left in Sydney to raid or call.

I am feeling sorry for the mummy he should be able to pull the wool over many peolpes eyes to get another 5 seasons & 4 clubs out of it!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Woodsey,

Read my original comments please.

fact

1 he is not building he is raiding
2- Ask ST.G, ECE, EASTS, Wests about the money being offered to players.
3- Ask ST.G & ECE of why he walked!!!!
4- The blues are falling into the same football trap as before.
5- Hho did he get private no. of the 25 leading players?
6- How do l know that, he told us in the coaching interview last year.

SAFL need to get back to Level 1 comp not level 2.

You are kidding yourself with this bloke! Put your money into the Kids and build from the bottom up just don't go around pumping average footballers up with money. The MUMMY is not clever he has you & your committe hoodwinked yet again.

I bet if you didn't give him Withers, Lees, Wilson & Moellar he would have walked again sighting not being paid!

trollboy I am no great fan of Campbelltown traditionally but I can see nothing wrong with how they have gonme about rebuilding their club. It seems largely based on re-connecting with the local football community and bringing players back. I am sure that their U18s will improve this year and with Kanga's philosphy of giving the kids a chance all bodes well for the future. I would hardly call it raiding.

Obviously they felt the need for a couple of key signing and with the continued development of the youngsters I see them a real finals contenders.

You are getting a bit dull with your vitriol - are you seriously saying that Kanga did not do do a good job last year with Campbelltown. Obviously you have a axe to grind with Kanga of a non-football nature but your footy arguments are very weak.
