SPEAR WANTS TO COACH AGAIN

Who knows? MD was the preffered choice, obviously, but with his leaving I guess it's an open book. I'm sure all 3 would be more than suitable candidates.

I knew a Simon Pritchard was involved in the club, coaching his daughter in U10 div2, not sure if it's the same guy anymore, as my sister moved up to 12s, but I assume it is. Although I haven't seen him around the club, infact I haven't seen Simon since my ill-fated SASI days. Can anyone in the club confirm this?

Without Matthews, just gives my boy Webber more opportunities to show his stuff, which he did in the last few weeks of the season. If they can keep that core of 9, then who knows what could happen?

I think the key for Norwood is finding a balanced core group, over the past two years it changed a fair bit, remember Eley was their star at the start of the year and now everyone has forgotten about him. Younie left before the start of last season, and Mellow only had one come back season, and a host of other squad players all have come in and out.

Adding Matthews and Thompson to the squad, coupled with the right attitude, SHOULD allow them to become contenders. I've spoken to Matty D about Sapper, and we were both certain that even if Norwood was his preffered choice, other clubs with more money would be chasing him too!

Matty did the honourable thing, letting the club know so they wouldn't be screwed over come January - and think about what he's done with the team since he came back - taken the clear WORST team into the finals and into a spot where they have the platform to contend finals for a few years, not BUYING a team but trying to develop one with a base of ex-Norwood junior players returning.

Potential Norwood rotation:

Guards: Matthews, Bell, Arnold, Schaftenaar, Webber, Januszke
Forwards: Thompson, Krause, Foster, Lomman

And youngsters to make up the 12: Lampshire, Nitscke and if any of us other U20s bother to go to training and get into shape for next year over Summer.

Can't argue with those names!
