Coach's Corner! with Rob Monteverde

Results...Last week the Senior Men lost 2 – 3 to BrisbaneKnights. The Reserves game was abandonedafter the lights went out due to an Energexfault.

Welcome to start of a new season.City One, Two and Four have been training forthe past 8 weeks. City Three for approximately4 weeks (traditionally late starters).

This year we welcome a big influx of newplayers from other clubs and overseas, whichis good and was required as many of lastyear’s players have left for a multitude ofreasons.

We all start our fixtures this week andhopefully our preparation will be enough toensure we get a good start, but I do know thatwe will all improve on our performances thisweek as players get to know each other andunderstand the Annerley "Philosophy".

Anyway, I wish luck to all of the City Teams, theWomen’s Teams and Capital One and reservesMen’s teams, as we strive to maintain theexcellence that is Annerley Football Club.

"We’re blue, We’re white... We’re DYNAMITE"
