    ORFFA Round 8 (AFL Round 10) - Interim coach round

    Interim coach time has arrived early this season, it seems, with certain people resigned to the fact (see what I did there) that their time may be up.

    What are the qualifications to be an interim coach anyway?

    "Here, mate, do you want to fill in and coach an AFL team for a few weeks while we search for someone that might be more qualified to do the job we're asking you to do unexpectedly and in a wholly temporary way?"

    Hmmm.

    Anyway, good luck to our newest interim AFL coach, and good luck this week to our proud band of non-interim coaches here in the ORFFA.


    Birdsville Battlers vs Wagga Wagga Wombats
    Charlies Opening Spelunkers vs Junee Jaguars
    Waikickamoocow Incorrigibles vs Venus Bay Vultures
    Larrikin Lagoon Lefties vs Nareewillock Nuffers
    Iron Knob Codpieces vs Cradle Mountain Devils
    Shark Bay Tigersharks vs Mount Beauty Uglies
    Wineglass Bay Packers vs Lovely Banks Lilacs
    Gundagai Grasshoppers vs Gariwerd Cockatoos

    I’m just an interim coach of the Cockies, but we haven’t yet been able to find anyone better to take on the job full time. We shall continue our search.

    It's the good looks that holds everyone back mate. There's been several strong candidates over the years, and most would manage the team better but just aren't as good looking. Its a high bar but we'll keep searching for the right person. I'm happy to keep doing the job in the meantime

    I think it's the first time this season that we're taking an unchanged lineup into the next game.
    We've shuffled some players around, and have some new emergencies (very happy to give both O'Driscoll and Ratugolea a chance to play as emergencies for the first time in a while), but otherwise go in unchanged after our good win last week.

    DEF: Jake Bowey, Kane Farrell, Blake Hardwick, Riley Bice (Changkuoth Jiath)
    MID: Max Holmes, Noah Anderson, Willem Drew, Sam Durham (Nathan O'Driscoll)
    RUCK: Sam Draper
    FWD: Touk Miller, Justin McInerney, Kade Chandler, Koltyn Tholstrup (Francis Evans)
    INT: Lachlan McAndrew, Isaac Quaynor (Esava Ratugolea)
