To be honest, not too sure what happened to the under 18’s coach, would be stiff however I’m sure the club has it’s reason. I have also heard that MAW is leaving to follow his brother, with maybe another 1 or two players to follow. I hope it’s not true as he will be a massive loss to WC. WC have signed a onballer, of which pedigree I cannot advise as I haven’t seen play. By all reports is a very good footballer. I’m sure every club is in the same boat at the moment with a few signings here and there and a few more in the pipeline, WC I assume would be no different. |

WCFC's win on the weekend will go down as one of their best in a long time for many reasons.
Battling to avoid last spot up against the number 1 on paper in Division 1. Nobody gave them a chance.
Can any Wests supporters or Subway let us know?

Can any Wests supporters or Subway let us know? Just a great team effort Brad, very proud of the players!!! First time I have seem them play four quarters of football this season. Many teams would agree WCFC can match it for 2 to 3 quarters but never the whole game this season. Hopefully the win we be the kick start we need... |

Great to see West Coburg win 2 of their last 3 games. ALthough they are 4 games away from finals a couple of early losses to Taylors Lakes and Tullamarine have made a huge difference. The burgers are a proud club and have lost alot of players over the off season but will come back bigger and better next year. I havent ruled them out this year yet!  |

West Coburg Football Club welcomes Digby Morrell as Senior Coach
Monday October 14, 2013.
West Coburg Football Club is pleased to announce that Digby Morrell has accepted the role as Senior Coach for 2014. Digby’s experience at EDFL level, and of course his AFL experience will provide the impetus needed at WCFC to challenge for a position back in the top level competition.
Playing 72 AFL games at Carlton and North Melbourne, Digby’s coaching started with the Northern Bullant’s and Digby has gained considerable experience in the EDFL including many finals and a Premier Division premiership with Strathmore in 2011.
West Coburg has always largely developed its list from home grown players, and Digby has expressed his eagerness in working with our young playing group to develop them and take the important steps required to return West Coburg to the Premier Division. We sincerely thank Neil Taylor for the last two years as Senior Coach. The most committed of club people, Neil stepped up during a difficult period for West Coburg taking control of the seniors in 2012. We look forward to seeing Neil back in a role after a well deserved
year off from Football in 2014.

Massive news subway. What's the reaction around the playing group? Each and everyone of the players are extremely excited... After losing 2 consecutive grand finals then finishing fifth, it was just what the club and playing group required. |
