Pekay, just a small correction mate, we never gave him a job at Penrith. He did apply for the coaching job a number of years ago saying that he had played for West Adelaide. Thankfully we did our due dilligence and contacted Westies who told us that they had never heard of him.
It hasn't stopped him from applying for the past three years either.
He lobbed at Parramatta who cheerfully announced his appointment on their website stating that his father had played 200 games for St.Kilda!
It's fair to say I was pretty surprised when I saw that you blokes had taken him on a couple of years ago.
I guess Camden's about the only club he hasn't had a go at.Comment

My apologies DLH, i did think he had a job there, i was aware that he re-applied many times though. Hell, he even had the gall to ask our president if he would consider his application this year!Needless to say, he was given no reply.
For the record, we were happy to take him on in Reserves (even after i knew of his background-i asked 3 mates at Parra for references,3 of their longest serving players,trusted blokes, who said,better to give him the 2s if anything) but he wasn't happy that i had the 1s job, i think he attended 2 or 3 sessions in pre-season, came to our golf day, promised all the sponsors in the world, didn't stick around through trials. Subsequently, we had to find another coach for Round 1.
By the way, to the mods, i don't find any of this slanderous or defaming, if it is, take it all down. Its general info.Comment

I had heard some whispers he wasn't a good choice, but didn't even know he was a consideration until his appointment was announced at presentation night. From the sounds of things, he has a lot of fans around in Sydney footy!!!
Good luck to him at Camden though, he will need it!! Being a magoo's coach is the hardest job in footy. Hughsey as firsts coach was the best move, will work really well particularly with the younger guys. The move should have happened this year....sorry Radar!!Time to play the Game!!!Comment

No need to apologize t-rock. Even I knew it was time to go, as I'm sure you knew it was time to retire rather than embarrass yourself with another year of poor playing performance.Comment

It's alright PK, I didn't listen to him or take any notice when he was the coach, so I definately don't now!!
God help the club he does get involved with....maybe Campbelltown South U10's might give you a shot, hey Radar?Time to play the Game!!!Comment

A bit to advanced for my knowledge T-Rock. Anyone who made u captain (ie me) obviously has no idea what they are doing.Comment

If there is still anyone at the Sharks from the mid-90s period, I believe they could provide an interesting reference as well.Comment

maybe some AFL money can be put into areas of Sydney that aren't north of the Harbour and we could get some better facilities....Carn the Southern Power.....Comment

haha - yeah that name makes me laugh.... Can't remember where he said he was from but we worked out when he couldn't kick or catch that he was full of it.... Reserve grade coach though - he may be capable of that - we will see I guess.Carn the Southern Power.....Comment
