The Olde Order Changeth!

Adam 'Rhubarb' Baker is the new BPL League Director. Well done Adam, and thanks Graham for taking such good care of the torch before passing it on. This blogger apologises for lacking the knowledge, but presumably you can reread our previous end of the era post and update the names.

Adam's first moves in following in the footsteps of previous BPL LD's (and let's list them again: Graham Prickett, Stu Austin, Jon Good, Andy Lankowski, Stew McGlashan and Jason Ray - not a bad starting seven now, and note that Adam's lack of an academic title now tips us to 4 non-doctors against 3 Doctors) will of course be gearing up for the coming season, and Captains and players will be scrambling into shape.

Down the track, we here at the stately but somewhat decaying Brisbane Ultimate Blog mansion are hoping 2012 sees a dedicated BPL website (ala the BUML website) that canbe the source of all the news, results and so forth, and well as retaining the gloried history of the Brisbane Premier League. Who will step up?

Wouldn't the return of regular BPL tipping and ladder updates on the BuB be a welcome reno to the "decaying mansion"?

And good on you, Adam.

BPL site would be great.

- Club info, history, rosters, contact details (to be completed by clubs themselves)
- Season draw, results, ladder
- Tipping comp and trash talk/forum "community" area
- Media section... pictures and video gallery? (suggestion to encourage: prize for the best pic and footage each season?)

This would be an excellent step in taking what's already a good competition to the next level.

It should not be the LD's job. To anyone who knows, how easy/hard is it to set up a site off the QUDA site? Does someone need specific web/IT knowledge, or is there a simple front-end that just requires content and styling?

Big props to mister Rhubarb. Nice one Adz.
