Adrian Ficorilli to Chirnside Park, where older brother Justin is playing coach next year. Will keep you posted about any Croydon ins if I hear anything.

Pretty hard to stack a team when all three teams play in the grand final. Well done on the win.

Well done to Mitcham, will be interesting to see tomorrow how their volunteers pull up after several hours on the sauce. Bad luck Park Orchards.

Rhett Jordan is out with serious knee injury, unfortunately could be up to 12 months on sidelines. However, he has been reappointed to coach next season and will continue to do so. Billy Dickson is the replacement player for Sunday, a seasoned player with 10 years of senior footy experience. In...

It would be handy if Boronia can replicate Donvale's scenario next week. The dirty Dorset will be buzzing plus some next Monday if we can manage 3 from 3. Go Blues!

Clubs definitely cannot buy a premiership nowadays, with the current allowable player points a club can have each game. Doncaster East getting what they deserve. At Croydon, we despise their club, ever since some corruption between them and EFL, allowed one of their reserves players (Bremner) to...

Some irony in this division next week. For Upper FTG to make finals, they are relying on a Ferntree Gully win (providing that Upper FTG beat Surrey Park).

Croydon have regained their motivation and desire the past three games. At least two more wins from last four games should guarantee second place.

The player points system needs to be reviewed in the lower divisions, where there are smaller clubs. Clubs such as Forest Hill and Nunawading are never going to attract large (or any) numbers of juniors when Vermont and Blackburn have systems in place to guarantee that players will go to those...

If Croydon's attitude doesn't change quickly, The Basin should notch up their first win next week.

Was at North Wangaratta v Whorouly on Saturday, while having a short holiday up that way over the weekend. Impressive oval with good facilities, along with a decent crowd. North won by 80 points, with Dave Killen starring for the Hawks. Enjoyable afternoon.

Great thread that I thought was worthy of bringing forward 17 years! Nicest: Chris Judd - played cricket against him and his son Oscar last season, they were both polite. Chris hit a nice six as well. Tom Hafey - a true gentleman, met him twice. Once at a local football club I played at where...

Croydon are 4 goals worse off without Fraser Smith and Andrew Carter playing, they did well to only fall short by 16 points. Skills yesterday were shit by both teams (for that division), Waverley Blues superior with tackling and foot speed.

Adelaide - Matthew Nicks Brisbane - Justin Leppitsch Carlton - Brendon Bolton (not Denis Pagan - he was left with nothing to work with because of the salary cap breaches) Collingwood - Murray Weideman Essendon - James Hird Fremantle - Justin Longmuir Geelong - John Devine Gold Coast -...

HAPPY DAYS... Today we saw a team that showed their true potential, instead of glimpses. Croydon has thrown their hat into the ring, to become a flag contender this season. Proud day for the club.

Great summary there. Another thing to note, I've been surprised at the standard of the football in Division 2 (effectively third division) this season, as to how it's still relatively good and it's not a big difference to the division above. It is probably similar to the true 2nd division from...

Rowville - Paul Mynott and his crew from Bayswater turned that club around 180 degrees, from a pathetic 4th division club that trained at the Stamford to a professionally run club in the highest division. South Belgrave - are in Yarra Ranges area, however are a well run club with committee...

A big factor in Knox clubs doing poorly is their local council. Not much money is set aside by the Knox Council (who I'm pretty sure are as far left wing as Yarra Council) towards improving sporting facilities, as a result many of them are run down, along with a lot of the ground surfaces being...

Tip for this week: unfortunately Boronia by 39 points, would be happy if Croydon proved me wrong though! The top 5 in this division looks to be set for this season, even after only 5 games.

Boronia are heading towards having a season as Donvale had in year below. http://localfootystats.org/efnl/scores/1994div2.php

Lilydale won by 4 goals. The Basin edge ahead as favourites for relegation.

I think you'll be right.

Is the great man going to play a game at club #61? Haven't seen him listed in any team for Croydon North in past month.

At the opposite end of the ladder, not as mundane. Probably about 4 or 5 teams throwing their hat in the ring for relegation, could well be that at least 5 wins needed for a club to avoid going down. On a different note, well done to Lilydale on winning their first game in almost two years.

Some unusual results today, Croydon 40 points up then manage to lose with 10 seconds to go, North Ringwood similar against Mooroolbark, Bayswater upset win against Mitcham. WTF sort of day.

Congratulations Boronia, 2024 premiers.

Bad luck Doncaster East.

It'll be a great match up in the round 6 match, Josh Begley v Fraser Smith, a gun full forward versus a gun full back that has made EFNL Div 1 team of the year at least once. Regardless of which team wins, it will be within a 3 goal margin.

Pig's arse Div 2 is over. Croydon won comfortably with 15-20 out this week, even though it wasn't a thrashing of Lilydale. It's true that Boronia this year are like South Belgrave last year which means come grand final day anything can happen. Agree with you about Upper Gully, it's great...
