Spurs get jet-propelled into 2018 season
ORANA Spurs stalwart Robert Hughes ran into an old mate on a recent visit to Newcastle.
“Jets coach Laurie Mckinna and I go back a long way,” Bob said. “We often exchange training ideas. His wealth of knowledge is unbelievable!”.
The Spurs kicked off training at Hans Clavan Oval on Sunday and there were more than 20 players hard at it under the new coaching team.
“Robbie Crowe is back in town and brings a wealth of playing and high-level coaching experience to the club. Our Spurs have been inspired already with the enthusiasm he has ignited along with Spurs long-serving Steve Tongue and young Matt Buckland who is relishing the added responsibilities,” Rob told me.
“We have four of our juniors back in club colours while they transition into Uni and they bring plenty of history and energy to the group.”
Training continues on Sunday at 6.15pm. Anyone who would like to play in this year’s winter competitions is welcome, according to Rob.
