    All the bestClaye Beams with your recovery after season ending knee surgery. Feel for ya there coach. Can honestly say that our fitness and conditioning group had no indication that Mr Beams had any pre-existing injury prior to us sending him 'packing'

    the Clay Beams out is sad P'Raptor. Be philosophical and concentrate on the outcomes you can influence.
    Did our deal in the trade period include not playing the transferees against their former teams?
    BTW, can you expend on point three in this wish list of yours please? There is a point to this question that might amuse the masses. 'Things to do: Fish, shoot, camp, sit on porch. Feed the dog.'

    Powlett Plains have just scooped a new sponsor for Season 2013 and will proudly wear their logo for both home and away games. /Portals/0/User%20Images/Wild%20Turkey.jpg

    Round 7 this season is a tribute/welcome to the new coaches we've got this year.
    Larrikan Lagoon and Wagga Wagga get to play each other that round.

    There is now a new team, as the Far Kew Frogs have relocated and become the Lovely Banks Lilacs.

    Turns out that you are hosting the Lilacs at Powlett Plains in Round 7, so hopefully you can work out some sort of welcome for them in keeping with the theme of the round :) I don't make the enemy welcome ;)

[span style='font-family: 'Courier New';]Kane Cornes, a stellar performer this season (number 16 ranked midfielder in average points) and member of the leadership group, has agreed to a one year extension that will see him play on in 2014. [span style='font-family: 'Courier New';]http://www.afl.com.au/news/2013-07-23... [span style='font-family: 'Courier New';]Further to that, developing ruck Max Gawn has agreed to a 2 year extension at Powlett. The 208cm 21 year old has had a solid season, highlighted by scores of 97, 92, 92, 88 and there is much more growth to come for the big man.

    TOTAL = 1313
    Powlett's investment into veteran players has paid off so far with a first week finals win. Powlett were off to a great start on Friday night when captain and vice captain Hodge and Ball scored well, ably supported by O'Brien and Grundy, and good form continued throughout the weekend. Un-named player Melskham (120) and Tuck (88 in a quarter and 9 mins) pushed their case. Adam Goodes is a hopeful inclusion next week, if not Smedts or Krakouer. With a number of midfielders in good form, it will be a difficult night at the selection table.

    You'll have to coach him yourself.

    BELLCHAMBERS UNHAPPY LOSING NUMBER ONE RUCK SPOT AT POWLETT - SEEKS TRADE
    Via his Manager, Tom Bellchambers has expressed his desire to be traded from the Powlett Packers after losing his numero uno ruck spot to the emerging Brodie Grundy. Powlett has acknowledged his request, and will be seeking compensation in the form of a young midfielder. Bellch, after averaging 86 in '12 slipped to an 81 average in '13 after time sharing in the RUCKMAN role most of the season. His prospects look inviting for 2014, with the possibility of both a change in club and dual position status making him a popular trade target.

    Presumably that will be for a young midfielder sans needle tracks?
