SIMON Goosey, the coach of VFL club Frankston, doesn't normally allow blow-ins to join in during pre-season training. It's an invitation-only affair.

But he made one exception before this season, and he's extremely glad he did.

Leigh Osborne was a 22-year-old half-back from the East Ringwood Football Club, in Melbourne's eastern suburbs, who arrived unbidden at Frankston training.

Goosey told him it wasn't the normal practice to just roll up, but he said he'd give him a two-week trial out of fair play.

Goosey swears that Osborne changed his body shape in those two weeks, fining down to a more athletic visage. Then there was the obvious football talent.

PLAYERS collapsed, fans gasped.

After a crazy last 20 minutes of footy, it was a draw between Frankston and Williamstown on Sunday at Frankston Park.

Scores were knotted on 92 points apiece.

It was the biggest thriller of the season, but those who witnessed it left the ground trying to work out how the heck Frankston didn't win.

FRANKSTON Dolphins Leigh Osborne, Khan Haretuku and Kyle Martin wore the Big V with distinction on Saturday.

The trio were among the best players in the VFL's 108-point win over Tasmanian State League at Hobart's Blundstone Arena.

Dolphins coach Simon Goosey also played a role, as assistant coach to Gary Ayres.

If you thought Tiger Woods' recent yips on the greens were bad, you haven't seen Luke 'Pup' Clark kick for goal this season.

The usually deadly full forward had kicked a woeful 1.13 going into the senior bye in Round 9, so coach Simon Goosey sent him back to the development side to get some much-needed confidence.

Hard work ahead

THE Frankston Dolphins will undergo a "mini pre-season" before their next game on June 2.

A bye followed by the state game will put the Dolphins' season into recess for three weeks, but players shouldn't expect an easy time of it. Far from it, in fact.

Coach Simon Goosey intends to use the time wisely.
