GRAND FINAL
PREVIEW
The final word from the coaches
Shaun Glacken Paskeville A Grade Coach
Paskeville finished top, took the first week of the finals off and then defeated Kadina to move straight through to this year’s grand final. It was a much different route than the Magpies took to last year’s surprise premiership. After finishing in fourth position at the end of the 2014 minor round, Paskeville required three victories — including one in extra time — just to make the grand final. This year the Magpies needed just one win. Coach Shaun Glacken said the lead in should have his players enter the grand final rested and injury free. “There will be no excuses this year,” Glacken said. “For us the season has gone to plan beautifully so far. “We threw the team around in the first half of the season, and then settled it in the second half. “We’ve been able to rest a lot of players and have them cherry ripe for the business end.” Now it will be up to the players if they want to claim back-to-back premierships. “We have been more consistent across the whole season than we were last year, when we started slowly,” Glacken said. “Basically we have had the same
team for three years, so that’s a real advantage. “The kids coming through have really stepped up to another level. “We have used the breaks to get some extra Ks in the legs on the track and will be looking for 21 contributors on Saturday.” Kadina has displayed good form in the finals, defeating Moonta twice and narrowly losing to Paskeville after suffering from inaccuracy in the first half. Its midfield of Josh Lawson, Waylon Johncock and the Bloods’ best player of the finals so far, Brett Burnell, is elite and often receives first use through dominant ruckman Jono Lee. This allows plenty of forward entries to Kadina’s key targets led by Willy Serle, who shook off his recent inaccuracy to boot eight goals in a match-winning performance in the prelim. But Glacken was tight lipped about his plans to combat Kadina, aside from saying Paskeville does have a plan. “Kadina has 21 quality players,” he said. “We shouldn’t be focusing on any one player because there are about a dozen you need to focus on.”
Ivan Silvy Kadina A Grade Coach
Ivan Silvy has led Kadina to a grand final appearance in his first year at the helm. This is despite arriving to a team which had fallen short of expectations in 2014, and also lost three classy midfielders including former AFL player Cameron Faulkner and Mail Medallist Craig Taylor. Expectations may have been lower for Kadina but nobody told the players, who played well all year and have been rewarded with a chance at a premiership. “For me the year has been fun — the season feels like it has gone too quickly,” Silvy said. “At the start of the year I was a bit worried to be honest. “I hadn’t met some of the boys, and I heard who had left, and I knew we had to find some quality players.” Silvy played a major role in recruiting Waylon Johncock from Glenelg after a couple of games, and in snagging Adam Cullen from Central District midway through the season. The pair added some class and dash to the Bloods, and Silvy is happy with how the side has now settled. “It has been pleasing how our fringe players have developed —
Markus Dunatov, Lachlan Glazbrook, Kane Zilm — they have all become reliable,” he said. “(Nick) Rawson normally gets a job and sacrifices his own game and hopefully he will get the job done again.” Kadina lost to Paskeville in the semifinal, and at Paskeville early in the year, but defeated the Magpies at Kadina. “I think we stand up alright against them,” Silvy said. “They have some pretty good boys, their Port Adelaide boys of course, but I think we match up okay. “It should be pretty even across the field. “We got the better of them at our ground but Pasky is probably better used to the smaller (Maitland) ground than we are.” Silvy will hope to field a full-strength side as Kadina has no serious injury concerns. The only doubt is with utility Luke Browning, who was reported twice during Saturday’s preliminary final. “I’m nervous for the boys,” Silvy said. “These guys have played together for a lot of years so I’m hoping the brotherhood-ness comes out in them and they do it for each other.”
