Our purpose to provide mature age players the opportunity to participate and compete in a safe, well organised and enjoyable atmosphere as well encourage participation in physical activity to better manage health.
​COACHES COMMENTS SUPERS – ADAM BRUNI – ROUND 10
 
What a great day for the club.
 
The supers finished the h/a season in clinical fashion with a 100 point win and locking in a finals spot.
 
4 very consistent quarters, with the work rate when we kicked in to a stiff breeze being extremely pleasing.
 
It was also great to see all the boys really enjoying playing together sharing, each other's success and sharing the work load.
 
With plenty of highlights it was hard to pick the best.
 
Ash's 8 goals, Deano's domination in the air, Cummo’s 1 hander or Macca's forward stint kicking 2 goals and letting the Pres know about it are right up there but for me it was Bones goal and celebration that had everyone up and about.
 
Congratulations to all involved having both the supers and masters playing finals and representing the club with pride and passion all year.
It's now a clean slate and the real fun begins. If we continue to believe in each other and work hard we can set ourselves up for a real crack over the next few weeks.
 
Don't drop off, footy is a funny game and you don't know what is going to happen next.
 
Good luck to all involved.
​CAPTAINS COMMENTS – KANE O’BRIEN – ROUND 10
 
A great way to end the home and away year with a convincing win over Ascot Vale.
 
A very even performance from the team and with some players finding some nice form heading into finals.
 
Looking forward to getting a few players and our coach of course back for our assault on finals.

Coburg Storm Into The Finals

In a massive day for the club, Coburg Supers secured a finals berth and retained the Foundation Cup in a 104-point drubbing of Ascot Vale in the final home and away match, the “Love Me Love You” round.
 
Love Me Love You Founder Lance Piciaone was on hand to present the trophy to Coburg Captain Mark Gillman and Coach Adam Bruni.
 
Coburg finished third and will take on Marcellin in the Semi Final in two weeks time at Croft’s Reserve, Altona North. It will be Coburg’s first finals appearance since 2010.
 
The Reserves who were celebrating Mark “Hotdog” Medley’s 50th game for the club annihilated Ascot Vale by 123-points a which broke the record for the highest winning margin and the highest winning score in Reserve Grade.
 
In a season full of “firsts” for the club, both Coburg Supers and Reserves are through to the finals and, for the first time in the club’s history the 2’s make the first finals appearance.
 
The Reserves also finished third on percentage and face Parkdale in the Semi Final.
 
Despite a great effort the Over 50’s were unable to make it three wins for the club and send Ray “Razor” Ransome who played his 150th for the club out a winner.
 
They went down to Ascot Vale by 28-points with Ray announcing his retirement from playing after this year’s AFL Masters carnival.
 
Paul Pitman was proud of the way his chargers went about it during the season and will be hoping for an improved showing with a few more players to graduate to Over 50’s ranks in 2018.

COACHES COMMENTS ROUND 9, Adam Bruni

We got off to ta great start kicking 4 goals in the first 10 minutes.

Throughout the game all players had an impact and the contribution was very even.

It is very pleasing to have so many players putting their hands up and really trying to make a spot in the team theirs. The competition within the group is fantastic and ensuring all efforts are made to see the team succeed.

One more win and then we can set up for a real crack at the finals. Let's keep enjoying our journey and ensure that it doesn't end in two weeks.

Keep up the good work!
COACHES COMMENTS ROUND 9, Scott Ryan

Very solid performance and proud of the unselfish team acts that came first all day.

Able to control the game for most of the day and get some run into players that have missed out in recent weeks.

Back on the track to run out some soreness before the last home and away game, then onto the real stuff, can't wait.
