Why RM? Settling a bet?

Ahh Pisani, perhaps just a little exaggeration on your behalf, I can see you being the conservative and balanced voice on the D3 forum this year. The cricket pitch is certainly covered - a lot of grounds are using synthetic covers these days (St Marys and the finals venue at Vermont spring to...

Re: D4 Section Ammos I will suggest Runco will be one of Eltham's four and that Carolan will be there from Mt Lilydale.

Re: D4 Section Ammos Interesting data Ruck Machine....Spy, can you anaylse this data and report back with your findings please. We await your thoughts.

Re: D4 Section Ammos Blokes were free in the goalsquare and were handballing back to him to get him to kick goals! A very good footballer though.

Re: D4 Section Ammos Don't worry OZZA, I think portman had the tongue firmly in the cheek. When I left Allard Park after our last visit, Ange and portman were having a beer together.

Re: D4 Section Ammos What impact will the uneven draw have on deciding fourth spot (and perhaps the top 2)? Which of the sides in the mix have the best/worst run? I seem to remember Mt Lilydale played the top 3 in the the first 3 rounds of the season. Eltham play St Marys, UHS-VU, Sth Morn, Mt...

Re: D4 Section Ammos Thanks Manny & Lakey,but I've shot myself in the foot by totally revealing my ID,so,anything I said I would have to be super careful of,for obvious reasons,also as an ump I'm supposed to be in control of myself,didn't do that very well did I? Think I should explain...

Re: D4 Section Ammos Not sure where anyone from Eltham actually made any comment about St Marys and their hardness? I would like to think that a poster who refers to "friends from Eltham" isn't necessarily speaking on behalf of Eltham.......do you think there might be a little chance that he...

Re: D4 Section Ammos Fair enough, I can see it is a deep seated hate and I would much prefer you to be a turtlist than a racist! I am just observing that you are passing judgement on a club based on a handful of blokes from many years ago, none of those blokes have played since 2001. I think...

Re: D4 Section Ammos Not sure if any club could handle Matthew Best, we tried but clearly failed. He could really play, but had a severe case of white line fever. Played in 99 and some of 2001 before being suspended big time. Went back to DVFL.

Re: D4 Section Ammos Oh Platters you disappoint me......you bag Lakey11 and then decide to do exactly the same thing and slander the turtles??? I can recall one 'cheap shot' incident in 1999 involving a guy who never played for the club again, other than that, I can't even recall a melee...

Re: D4 Section Ammos A big call re: reserves ump. From experience I would suggest that most clubs believe that their reserves ump is the only honest one around and that every other bloke favours his own team....When the Syndal 2's journeyed out to Eltham last year they were umpired by club...

Re: D4 Section Ammos Nasty.... Is this the 07 version of arvosjunior??? Actually arvosjunior claimed to be from Eltham and you aren't doing that. Without wanting to dwell too much on the events of last year, I think you may recall that the posts on the forum last year talking up Eltham and...

Re: D4 Section Ammos Albert Park finished the season off very strongly last season and have some quality players, particularly in the mid-field. Along with BHN and Bulleen they were in a fight for 4th spot, until BHN secured it in the last round by fixing up eventual premiers Powerhouse...

Not a single guy in the boarding house on some sort of scholarship??? Scholarships go by many names.... Remember when Jnr Tarrant's family were quoted in the papers the other year saying that he was at Xavier on a sports scholarship? Or did they have it wrong?

Re: D4 Section Ammos Hope to see you out in the middle this season 'nellup'! Box Hill North certainly had a big year last year and will be looking to go a little further. Totally agree re: your Centrals sentiments, softer blokes would have folded or headed for Clubbies - they did it hard last...

Re: D4 Section Ammos Guru, the turtledome is looking a treat after being dug up and re-sown since the end of the season. This was primarily to address some drainage issues at the clubrooms end. The College has its own water supply to keep it going.

Re: D4 Section Ammos No doubt that the Sharks have some quality players; Payne, Creswell, Viola, Bowen etc. If they improve their depth they would be a big chance. But where will they be playing this year? Whitehorse Reserve is currently covered by a very impressive mountain of dirt! Could...

Re: D4 Section Ammos It was the first time we have made the finals since 2001!! - and that was an elimination final when D4 had a five! Very disappointing though after a great first half of the year - remember the Hawks finished on top and Powerhouse only won one less game than us. I would...

Re: D4 Section Ammos Hopefully this is the last post by arvosjunior.... As pointed out by more than one regular poster (with no allegiance to Eltham Collegians) it has been made clear that arvosjunior is not a member/player with the turtles. I don't know what his motivation is (feel free to...

Re: D4 Section Ammos Just backing up what port_man had to say about arvosjunior. He is not from the turtles and we as a club are obviously annoyed that he is posting such provocative rubbish on this forum. Eltham and Bulleen have been rivals for years but we have always maintained a good...
