Quite correct. Nick Hosking has returned to Melbourne to start a new business, but his cousin Michael Hosking will be coaching North Shore next year.

yeah he's a great bloke who suffers from white line fever on weekends... but seriously,he will command respect from the boys.we played NSW Fire Brigade in a trial at the start of this year,and he was running the show,and then we played Manly at Weldon and scores were level,then he took a mark outside fifty and banged it home, killing us by a straight kick.completely unrelated to this subject,but had to say it anyway.i wish him all the best.also my mate Diamond, another firie,was interested in getting involved,he spoke to the powers that be,did he get a coaching role Benny?

Leigh is coaching the Lions. Will be interesting to see how they go in PL in 2005.

they have recruited aggressively even to the point of hitting one of my boys up at RAAF Richmond (unless he was talking it up,but he's one of the best in Sydney,all divisions) which would be a fair hike.they drew Wests at Wagener first round,who seem to have brought out the cheque book this summer too.but only time will tell.
