A very sad loss.

Yep...agreed Ocker. He was a very good and loyal servant to the club. RIP

Was Orsi involved with a variety of other WAFL clubs?....Pretty sure he was involved with the PFC and EFFC....more so with their youngsters than the seniors...could be wrong tho?

Inspirational stuff, could have been a senior coach...perhaps a bit old school a bit like Percy Johnson

Yes he was Freeze off the top of my head I am sure he coached Perth & WP Colts sides and was one of Claremont's trusty lieutenants during their Premiership years earlier this decade as well as at Subi in more recent times, he may well have followed Schofield over from Tigerland.
I am pretty sure he played a bit of Sunday League for either South Perth or Canning (one of the Tiger sides anyway) back in the 70s or 80s?
He could certainly coach that is for sure and was quite an animated character but definitely good value.

Very sad whenever a passionate WAFL person leaves us. Was obviously loved and respected by all he coached. May he rest in peace.

Terrible news. I had a feeling it was going to be an up hill battle. I always went to his group in the huddle to listen to him speak, clear, precise and inspirational. I sensed that he was the most knowledgeable coach at the club and he pretty much called the shots. RIP Wayne
