Dean Limbach signs for Seagulls

Former Richmond forward Dean Limbach has signed on to play for Williamstown in 2007. Dean is a mobile forward who should provide a strong marking target in the forward line next season.

Dean failed to play a game at AFL level in his two years at the Tigers after being drafted at #52 in the 2004 National Draft. However he showed promising signs as a Tall Forward at VFL level in 2006 booting 7 goals against Port Melbourne and 5 goals against Werribee. Dean kicked 30 goals from 15 games at Senior level and kicked 20 goals from 4 games at Reserves level for Coburg. Dean was also part of the 2004 Calder Cannons TAC Cup Premiership side.

Dean is a valuable acquisition to the Williamstown side to fill the void in the forward line after the departures of Galea and Lawry.

Rombotis is the new coach of Kangaroo Flat....

--------------------------------------------
KANGAROO Flat yesterday ended its three-month search for a new senior coach by announcing former AFL player John Rombotis will lead the club in the All Seasons Bendigo Football League this year.

Rombotis played 48 games of AFL football with Fitzroy, Port Adelaide and Richmond.

Kangaroo Flat has won just five games in the past four seasons, but Rombotis, who has signed a two-year deal, says he isn't concerned by what the club has done in the past, he is focussed solely on the future.

'‘We're about developing a new side and a new beginning," Rombotis, who was non-committal on whether he will pull on the boots this year, said yesterday.

 Since Rombotis' AFL career ended in 2000, he has coached Belgrave in the Yarra Valley Mountain District Football League, won a premiership with amateur club St Kevin's and spent the past two years coaching Roxburgh Park in the second division of the Essendon District Football League.

‘‘This is a two-year coaching tenure with an option, but at the moment, I just want to focus on developing the side and I'm really looking forward to it."

‘‘John has a vast amount of experience, he has played with Fitzroy underneath Bernie Quinlan and Mick Nunan, Port Adelaide underneath John Cahill, and Richmond under Jeff Gieschen and Danny Frawley.

Sounds like Spud deciding over Fiora and Pavlich

Here's how the interview went:

Sheeds: So, if you had the first pick in the draft and there was this kid who looked like champion already: tough, good ball winner - a real safe bet. Then there's this other kid we've been hiding up in the Tiwi Islands - he's not played much football and he's about 50kgs. But he's got a lot of upside. I mean a lot of upside. Like, you wouldn't know it from the way he fumbles all the time and that's when he even gets the thing in the first place & the way he's spent by about quarter time. He's primarily played on the wing and last week he racked up a game high 8 possessions. As I said, HUGE upside.

Who do you draft?

Keane: Uhh, the second kid?

Sheedy: Excellent, you're in.

where is MATTHEW ROGERS ???
