Mesecke did an amazing job over many years, that is just obvious to anyone. Regardless of who takes over (it will probably be someone good) Sturt will continue to get stronger. It is pretty hard for Sturt to do poorly because every other club makes such a mess of it ALL THE TIME.

Cultures, people and systems are embedded and hard to break.

So in 2 weeks Gliddon has made all the last 14 years success happen that is now coming to fruit in the girls program. Really. Like it or not you have to give credit where due. It was mesecke that would manouvere and select talent to give to coaches to train. He would pick players based on his eye for talent he felt could be developed, when others would doubt and his instincts have proven to be right. The teams that won and postiioned well were a direct result of his design over the years preceeding. It doesn't happen overnight. Like it or hate it, that's the truth and time will tell whether the next leader can have the same eye for talent and guts to go against the grain and stick to his or her guns to make those decisions to keep the ball rolling. Like it or hate it, it has worked. Yes there has been issues and yes things in some areas can be done better or differently but to post so much success is not just on a club or coaches alone. Only time will tell and he will have the opportunity to prove his worth at another location soon and we'll see how Sturt fares without his eye, and arrogance often required to be successful. I am not necessarily a fan but credit where credits due.

Highlight of my weekend was the huge 3 by Michael Harris in the u18 boys GF. Have seen some huge game winners on that court in May over the years & that was right up there with the best. Worthy winners & proof that a champion team can beat a team of champions.

Heard a lot of chatter over the weekend about these write ups but not too many contributors to the threads. Now the pressure is off, would love to hear about some of the weekend highlights from around the place.
