Zane Murphy to North Hobart?

December 18th 2010 09:48

Rumours are floating around the former Docker turned Northern Bomber Zane Murphy could be headed to North Hobart in 2011. Murphy had won the Tassie Medal this season on votes, but as deemed ineligible after he was suspended, and failed to win an appeal on the suspension.

Reports say that Zane has been said around North Hobart, and been talking with the Demons, so it could be possible he's leaving the Bombers.

Ex=Saint to Coach Bombers

October 22nd 2010 11:09

Sourced: The Mercury - The Voice of Tasmania
by Adam Smith

FORMER St Kilda defender Jeff Dunne will today be announced as coach of North Launceston.

The State League Bombers sacked Paul Atkins last month, terminating the contract of the first-year coach after claiming he was unable to "meet his obligations as senior coach".

Atkins, who signed a two-year deal, was living on the West Coast because of work commitments but travelled to Launceston for training on Wednesday and Fridays.

After missing finals in 2009, Atkins guided North to sixth this season, but his side blew a seven-goal lead midway through the second term in the elimination final to be bundled out by North Hobart.

Bombers president Thane Brady remained tight-lipped yesterday on the appointment of Dunne, but confirmed the position has been filled and an announcement would be made today.

"We have just got a couple of administrative processes to go through and if all goes well we will be making an announcement," Brady told The Mercury.

Dunne, 54, played 101 games with the Saints between 1977 and 1983 as a hard-running back pocket.

He won back-to-back best and fairest awards in 1979-80, and also represented Victoria.

In 1984 he joined Richmond, but played just one match for the Tigers before retiring at the end of the season.

Dunne then moved to Tasmania, where he captained South Launceston in the old Statewide League for one season in 1986, before spending a single season at the Northern Bombers in 1989.

Dunne was also heavily involved in basketball, coaching the now-defunct Launceston Tigers in the ABA.

Devonport is also set to announce its coach for the 2011 season at a club function tonight, with the position down to a two-horse race.

Errol Bourn, who took the Magpies to this year's TSL grand final against Clarence, and former Devonport and Ulverstone coach Max Brown, are involved in a head-to-head contest for the coaching position.

At this stage, Glenorchy remains the only other club without a coach, with local applicants being interviewed this weekend.
