Perfect Timing

And on the other hand, sometimes things just fall into place if you let them.
I've been giving my men as long as possible to prove themselves. Tonights training game against Sash's 6's secured the place of 4 players, leaving only 1 place completely empty.

Coaching a team to a big win over better fancied opposition feels quite good. At 1-0 down things were going to script. A few goals later and we were 3-1 up. The goals kept flowing until we called time at 6-3 or so.

I was ready to call it quits a year early with womens coaching. I'm not going to put in the extra effort unless the rewards are there this time. And I don't mean results. Last year I achieved a lot with players who don't understand the game half as much as they think they do. But at the end of the day I enjoyed finishing Grand Finalist Runner Up and Second in the league far less than leading a group of committed and enthusiastic players off the bottom of the ladder. At any rate, my work is going to be cut out for me if I continue with Womens. Mid-table is a high goal unless squad changes work in my favour. Mens on the other hand will be at the other end of the table, and ought to provide me with a contrast of coaching challenges.
