You sure missed out mate

Wouldnt have mattered yesterday that ones on the umps. Money talks mounts and north have got it, the others dont.

Good question white hills and Huntly have juniors though.

I couldn't care either way all i saw was a really bad show from umpires that effected an outcome, reckon white hills are basically now amateurs mounts have heaps of ground to pay players.

Gotta admit im surprised at the lack of mounts blokes commenting on this. Theres plenty of them on here and there paying a heap, a pack of kids should have rolled them but nothing.

The umpiring at the games ive seen has been pretty avrage but nothing like what I saw yesterday. It seriously cost white hills the game

Thought id head down to Scott st today and take a look. Have never seen a team get such a terrible run from the umps as white hills got today. Absolutely robbed mounts boys should have cheered the umps off.

Very well put. Reckon a couple of them have (or had) the league bluffed.

To ex Yep, and the clubs that take the time and effort to develop players through junior programs are seeing them either walk away from the game altogether at 17 or heading to lvfl or othe comps where they can play another year of open age. Then have to try and get them back. This argument...

It was the same when I was a young bloke but things are completely different now. The hdfl mainly bjfl alligned clubs are losing good juniors flat out even before 17s because of it. Which sides in 2018 will be able to field a 17s side without overage permits or match permits from other clubs.

Maybe years ago when they had a couple of years work under there belt but not now. Its a rare kid who can come straight out of 17s and match it with an adult how many kids out of last years 17s are going to play hdfl 2s or 1s this year? What im hearing across the bjfl alligned sides is you...

In what way?

The situation you are talking about with broadford is over 10 years ago. A 14 year old playing against an 18 year old is far fairer than a 17 year old playing reserves against a 30 plus year old. If colbo, elmore and the like have 14s playing under Runymeade in the goulbourn comp why don't they...

Didnt aflcv force the move to 18s in the lv. Theyll be having a fieldday picking up over age 17s from hdfl clubs around bendigo, reckon north and whitehills in particular would be bleeding.

Huntley have to be in the same boat as the other bendigo sides, didnt they not have 17s at all a few years ago. Wonder if changes at a board and afl central vic level might see a different outcome if it was lookec at again

Any idea why they voted against it huntly especially

Yes the 17s has effect on the players feeding through to representative football from hdfl. Ask any of the teams around bendigo how hard it is to attract players and theyll tell you the best talent want to play 18s not 17s. Cant think of any good reason why hdfl hasnt gone to 18s.

Whats the huh for

Fooy inbendigo would be better suited by a secon division Bendigo league like the old golden City league. Clubs like Marong, north, huntly, white hills, Maiden gully/ycw along with some of the clubs close by to bendigo like Harcourt mount pleasant, Heathcote and Maldon come out of district...

Had good blokes in the 2s who mightv got em there 3rd flag but dont have the names. Played injured blokes who got found out. Did well to get as close as they did.

First time I've seen a side stack 2s to win a flag and loose a seniors flag. Thompson and Giri dominate norths 2s playing nearly all year in 1s and they play a bunch of injured blokes in the 1s. Helman didnt get his flag to...

I thought the last 2 years north had limped into the granny, but then did a real job on LG. If LG go in thinking all they need to do is turn up then north will get hold of them, inhuries or not. There were aboyt 8 north players at Elmore last saturday that had tape on thighs, knees and calfs...

Any word on the injuries at North? Findlay done, Helman looked like his ankle was not good, Ford on one leg in the pocket and two or three others hobbling.

Salary cap or points come into it anywhere in the chase

If North said it didnt happen that way then it couldnt. The same as how they didn't take Weeks out of the finals a few years ago. Any word on who mounts are chasing

As soon as Hawkens comment about Pilcher were reported North would have started jumping up and down wanting there go, can't have a bad word said about them. Now to see how they react IF they get through this week, hope the umpires don't write on the ball this year.
