Frankstons run home... Finals?

Looking at the Dolphins run home, I reckon they can win 4 of the last 6 and possibly pinch a spot come finals time.

They play...

North Ballarat (Home)
Williamstown (Away)
Nthn Blues (Home)
Casey (Home)
Essendon (Away)
Sandringham (Away)

Whaddya reckon?

I think they are a massive show against the Roosers, Blues, Essendon and Sandy.

Frankston - where to from here?

I'm interested to hear what other Frankston (and opposition) supporters think of the direction of our club. I'm beginning to have some serious concerns about our objective of providing an AFL pathway as our main recruiting drawcard. Right now I'm pretty convinced we have a few playing for themselves rather than our club, and if that's going to continue as a trend of our playing group it will be bloody hard to build and keep a membership.

Frankston Dolphins name 3 captains for 2013 season.

At tonight's Jumper presentation night The Dolphins announced 3 captains for 2013 season and they are Luke Potts, Mitch Bosward and Leigh Kitchin.

3 other players announced in the Leadership group: Shane Hockey, Chris Irving and Khan Haretuku.

Great to see Paul Kennedy back playing this year wearing number 77.

“It’s been pretty hard work the last few years, but this year you could tell things were on the up. The seniors were competitive every week except two and the development team beat a couple of finals teams.

"Next year we are going to get the rewards for all this work.”

Luke Potts wrote:

“I love the club. I just want to be a part of some success, and with all the good young fellas we have I think that is coming up in the next couple of years.”

A number of other signing announcements, including new signings, will follow in the coming weeks.

Where to now for the Frankston Dolphins?

After disappointing losses today in both the VFL and Development League to the Northern Blues today. What happens from here?

I am not sure, I am pretty convinced that the Dolphins will go winless for the rest of the season in both competitions. It is a very shattering thought from someone who helps them out but that is what I am thinking.

It looks like we are now going backwards rather than forwards.

Looking like 4th straight wooden spoon for the Seniors and 3rd straight for the Devlopment Team.
