last seasons coach has been re-appointed at AVO.

Well thats good to see. Junior clubs need a primary school nearby in order to enable the club to continually top-up their junior ranks. If ancc are to move to that area, I'd advise them to look very carefully at the new club room design. Councils have a habit of short changeing clubs,especially...

With 2 primary schools and 2 secondary colleges not far away I imagine you guys would be in 7th heaven.

I notice there is a primary school nearby which is important for junior clubs. I wonder if the primary school would be able to service 2 or 3 clubs. A move there could eventually cause the demise of ANCC OR LAVERTON. I wonder how many clubs draw juniors from that primary school? If athletics is...

I'd be surprised if Albion folded. They are an old club and know what it takes to survive. Unfortunately an alleged debt apparently loaned to the club by several members of around allegedly $60,000. as the cricket sections contribution for the erection of new club rooms is a rather large stone...

I didn't think for a moment you were bagging the club. I was questioning your suggestion that 3rd generation Italian Background kids would be pushed into soccer. In most cases Grand Pop would be long gone. Who do you play for? Your right. The junior committee ably Led by Leigh Shellie with...

Sidelinedrinker, Fair suck of the sav. Your talking 3rd generation Italians. We're a multi-racial club. Third generation Aussie Italians are turning to cricket in their droves. A recent study by the university of Popendetta confirms this. We have players(juniors and seniors) from Pakistani...

Your right, when your down from fairly lofty heights, it's a bitter pill to swallow. Still, on the positive side their is only one way from here and that is up. Taxi drivers have a habit of turning up late. A couple of juniors whom have finished their junior careers are not very committed and a...

Way to go Fatman.You have had a purple patch indeed. Well done. You'd go well for Tullamarine, they need a top four bat of your calibre. The going rate for a player of your stature is around $6,000.

Your right Roy. Coundn't have said it better myself. Nth"B" is an excellent level from which to re-build your team. When a side slides as Avo has and gets to the point where it has to recruit 5 or 6 players from with-out in order to be competitive it gets a bit expensive. No club is a YCCC...

You can only go to the well so many times. The last time I looked my wallet had moth holes. Can't see how soccer is a worry. 2xmilo,1x10,1x12,1x14,and 1x16 at the moment. Big improvement from just 6 kids a few years back.

You have my sympathy. A bit hard covering the loss of 4 or 5 players in one season. Still your club would now have a good feel for the competition your up against. Avondale is in much the same boat having taken their eye off the ball some years back in terms of letting their Junior Squad run...

Guru you lost a couple of players from the season before last when you were Runners-up. Who were they and was that because your club decided to move to the V.T.C.A? Had they stayed, do you think they would have made a difference to your position on the ladder this season? What holes in your side...

I'll second that. What in the McGoos or the peggers?

I think he is fair dinkum. He could still do the job but he"s had enough of being sore for 3 or 4 days each week after a game. Still, your a long time retired.

I can understand your frustration. Avondale Heights same municipality has a standing arrangement during summer. Automatic sprinklers last water thursday night then off till Sunday night. Week in week out.

A few seasons back when Albion won the Nth "A" premiership they put in a request not to go up and it was granted. Proved to be a good call. Recently Avondale when runners-up in Nth"A" were granted a request to stay. Also a good call as they are now in Nth "B". Appears V.T.C.A. executive can be...

I'm not bagging the deck. I've even stated it was a plum deck at times. True most batsmen got themselve out through bad application. What I,m bagging is the preparation. Their was no rain around yet water got on the track via apparently the sprinklers. You confirmed that 5 times during the...

If Preece retires as he suggested I think F/U will need to recruit at least 2 top 5 bats to be competitive. Tulla needs a stike bowler and 2 top 4 bats. A.Scott and D. Scott are not ready.
