Player Movements & Rumours 2016/17

Their Facebook post is an interesting read. It basically admits that their policy of recruiting failed Greensborough players hasn't worked.
From what I've heard.... Henkel, Killa, Gardner (Epping), B Rowe (Laurimer) , N Rowe , Maddox (Rosanna), Neary (Rivergum), Fielding and Wright all gone from LPCC. (Meekins and Jenkin the only remaining 2 from the GF team)
If that is all correct, that is astounding. Something has gone horribly, horribly wrong. I heard Meekins wasn't playing anywhere at all. Was a reluctant participant this year due to outside commitments. That would leave one. Geez.
 
As per Bricky and Ol Toddy! I won’t shed any light, your sources seem to be in the know it all so continue putting your faith in them
What Bricky doesn’t understand, you boys just made a grand final, and we’re very close to winning up until the last few hours. How can all of a sudden this have this kind of effect on you’re whole club. You and all your other mates on here have defended this “toxic environment” and talked it down to be nothing, when in fact you now have no players left.
Not one of you wanting to stick around for the love of the club, pretty piss poor if you ask me. All of you way to eager to chase the $$.
I’m sure the committee and old boys at your bunker would be thrilled when they’re the heart and soul of the joint and all you see is the $200 a game.
Pathetic

Fair call
 
Well uncle tezza mudguts brick head had you on $250 a game a few months back now its
$200 to me that just doesn’t add up with the 58k they spent last season
Splitting hairs. A failed program that has gone horribly wrong that nobody who is associated with can get defensive about.

It's a poor reflection of all those involved. They lose a Grand Final by 70 runs and everyone in the team quits. What about some determination to go one better next season?

I don't have any sympathy for the club though. Toddy is not a fan of paying ordinary local cricketers. You might get some short term success. But in the end, it all comes crashing down and the club is financially poorer as a result. LP would have been better off spending its money on facilities or having cheaper subs.

The new president @ LPCC will lead the club in the right direction. The club is stable financially despite the goings on last season. Plenty of hard work put in by club people to break even.

It's juniors are impressive, well run & show real promise for a sustainable future.

Succession plan in place with Brent Zerafa & Bill Jenkin coaching.
 
No point in bagging blokes for chasing some coin. If clubs are silly enough to continue to throw it guys who are, no offense, nothing but slightly above average club cricketers, why wouldn't they take it up?
