How good was Tim Archibald? Didn't he win a B@F at Broadford-Riddell-Diggers in the 80s playing CHF at 182 cm ? He may of even had a season at Macedon?
You work with what you've got and there is a good spread of handy players Skip has to work with in that squad. It looks pretty strong defensively with some quality intercept markers and run and carry players that are good users of the ball. ie (Tessari and Chambers)There's also good outside...
Great to see Helmers Dean starting to string a few wins together up at Swan Hill . Playing the bull Reece Smith off half back he would be the Darren Millane of that competition. Only reading into the results with limited contact with Dean these days Boyall Vianni and the Saad boys seem to bring...
Yeah a great mate of mine . Family holidays together ,long lunches at the Railway Club hotel in Port Melbourne each year fighting over who had the most magnified glasses to read the form guide ..Not that it helped that much ! My heart goes out to April , David, Shania and families.. Puts things...
Because he is smarter than that and a decent bloke. He has made millions but from what I'm told from Rockbank die hards he has a real connection with country football. Why would a bloke worth 50 million be a boundary rider for channel 7 ?
Surely Andrew Welsh has a vested interest in providing his expertise and funding to support the overall tradition of the Rams . Eyensbury juniors are already playing at Rockbank and to become a power club they should change their name to the Western Rams . Don't just move the Juniors move the...
Today will come down to coaching strategies Buckley -Burns-Harvey - Sanderson for the pies versus Worsfold-Mc Kenna-Neeld -Harvey for the Bombers . Interesting to note only one Collingwood coach has played in or coached a flag that being Sanderson at Geelong . All of Essendon's coaches have...
My condolences to David Trimboli a past reserves player at Wallan on the sudden passing of his father Rick last night. Rick was a past sponsor at Wallan loved his football and was a mad Collingwood supporter that had a local very successful plastering business . RiP brother gone far to early .
It's the first time I've been to a VFL game since 2015 . I deliberately stood on the fence with my daughter near the interchange for the pies . I've coached at senior level and won flags . In 1991 I was recruited by Brian Ciccatosco to South Fremantle and played a season under Mal Brown with big...
Watched from the fence right on the pies interchange. Not a good feeling and the players don't seem to all be on the same page . Chris Mayne was trying to give instructions to 3 other players whilst waiting to go back on and none of them had any interest in what he had to say . He then commented...
Corey Enright what a class act ! 3 time premiership player 6 times All Australian 2 times Geelong Best and fairest played for Barwon Heads on Saturday for free . Great to see one of the all time greats give back to local football .
As with an earlier post of mine Doona I think times are changing and unfortunately unless we get our head out of sand and change our way of thinking clubs like Broadford doomed ...**** it let's call a spade a spade Frankstons VFL side has folded.. Port Melbourne VFL Garry Ayres sent out an SOS...
Head on the chopping block time Top 6 Macedon-Sunbury-Rupertswood-Wallan-Diggers- Riddell . Biggest improvers Rockbank ( I hear they have picked up 3 or 4 quality indigenous players from up North ) plus a couple of others and 2 good coaches will see them be alot more competitive this year ...
Has Rupo done anything about their parking around the ground? Once it rains the canteen and change rooms are virtually inaccessible! It's like wading through quicksand I buy my food and drinks before I get there so I don't have to leave my vehicle and I'm tipping others do the same ?
Im sure the truth will have many different views and as usual someone will be the scapegoat. It's a wonder they haven't pointed the finger at Keston he seems to be an easy target on this thread . You gotta feel sorry for big James Philpot taking on such a difficult situation. Good luck big fella !
It's just the world we now live in and it will continue to hurt local footy and netball . Saturday and Sundays are now important work days for a lot of people getting double time ect.... Each year we lose more players football/netball because they can't afford to pass up work opportunities. The...
You are 100 per cent on the money . Can't wait for Roosy to take charge of pies in 9 months time . He will tweak a few dials in the draft . Devise a better game plan although I do think Sanderson will straighten up and improve the forwards this season great addition to coaching staff.
I think it was poorly scheduled by the league they got it wrong. The Diggers v Broadford should have been at Riddell on the Sunday and the Macedon v Riddell should have played at Rockbank on the Saturday when you consider both Riddell sides 1st and 2s were playing with a home ground advantage...
Got robbed in the first final in 2016 playing Riddell at Riddell . Would have given it a big shake had they won that game . In saying that it was a fiercely contested game of a high standard with 2 totally contrasting game plans which made it a great spectacle especially with the pumped up...
Unrest up at Tigerland could see several Clubs chasing a prized recruit. Word is that he is going to hop back to the RDFL but some other prominent clubs may throw their hats in the ring for this star .Any truth to this Doona?
