Geez, from where I saw the game he was definetley in the better few in a side that was doing it tuff. Seemed to be involved in most transfers through the middle of the ground, although the team as a whole butchered the footy a fair bit. Credit to the Bears for their attack and pressure on and...
Isn't that bloke 45 years old! I watched him in a couple of games last year and he looked like Jim Jess getting around in his senior years at the tiges! I also heard Nevs is heading up there with him. I think he played quite a few in the ones last year at Tat. Do they have links to Robbo from...
Carefacta, I suggest you are referring to theis post:
I am sure Dookie, Katandra, Tunga and Shepp East's spending would not even be in the same tax bracket as some KDL clubs. And for what? fair dinkum, some of the guys cammanding good $ from the KDL have tried the PDFL, be good players without...
Rightio - time to move on!
Who is having pre chrissy runs / meet the coach nights etc etc?
Also, read on the MFL, that Tunga have landed a massive fish from the MFL? Muls FF I think. Can anyone confirm. Heard Strawhorn is making a move from Rennie this year to have a crack at a better standard...
I fairly sure Lowey was in the leadership group if not captained Mooroopna a few years back and that to me says he is a fair player. The message I was trying to impart was these blokes who have not played major (GVL) league seniors have the gall to waltz out to the KDL & PFL and request such...
I would very much doubt that Lowey would've gone into the job at Shepp East without knowing what his budget was. Maybe the problem is that the rabbits out there shopping themselves around are ridiculously overpriced. Don't get me wrong there are some blokes out there worth every penny, (they do...
GOLD!!!
Anyway about Lowey coming to the Eagles. I reckon he has been around long enough to do the sums and work out where he needs to fill some holes with retirees / departures. I would be very doubtful he would just approach any player willy nilly just to secure them. If Timmy K stays at...
Yes totally agree fence! Those young blokes coupled with the nucleus listed above I'm sure will be in the mix again next year. I believe the candidate interviewed very well and was very organised and had done some homework on the playing list. So hopefully, they can agree on terms in the not too...
Heard Yze has committed another year in the GV.
Have also heard that there are a couple of departures form the Eagles along with the retirees - Besty & Ozzie heading back into the GV for one last hoorah! - Good luck to them - We'll see them back about rnd 2 when their bodies fall apart due to...
I heard the same thing! He'd make a good FP but maybe Warby should try him in the BP just so he can experience both ends of the ground before he retires!!:D
BTW - any developments on the Tat, Shepp & Benalla jobs???
Yeah, I might have a few mates on the 'other side' of the fence next year. Its been a while since I posted, but may I say a big congrats to the Shepp East footy club. Well done to H and Gibbo for saluting in the big dance - great job by all coaches, players, committee, trainers, canteen ladies...
Well done to Besty & his boys on Sat'd. Excellent result and super effort for him to get his charges to 4 staright GF's. You could argue he has has pretty good cattle along the way, but he still needs to instill the right style, play and discipline to get to the last game of the year, so well...
I would have thought finishing a couple of games clear would've had them at least there until their first final? Anyway, doesn't matter who is favourite, its what you do on the day (as Katunga showed a couple of weeks back).
Tell ya what tho, the grasshoppers maybe a little nervous facing tunga...
The SE GF is at Katunga on Sun 16th Sept I think. Shepp East and Waaia I reckon.
A couple of notes:
1. Any game report on Sat's match? Must have been a good one! Waaia has some severe firepower and it looks like it may have the grasshoppers a bit worried going by last two results. Any...
Well done to the Eagles on rolling the bombers on Sat! Thought the very young and inexperienced crew down back did a steriling job on the bigger guns from Waaia. Spencer, Hanning, Robinson, Frost:p, never seemed to panick and taking out the Cowan v Freeman contest, the youngens looked to have...
Big test in the game of the round this weekend with the Bombers v the Eagles. Eagles are a bit vulnarable down back atm and the bombers strength is there forward line power, so the eagles back six are gunna have their work cut out big time. Osbourne will surely return after a week off and other...
Was that after he ran 15m to drive an elbow into the back of Frappells head 50m off the ball. I think you might find that the reason for the retaliation. Anyway I'll break it down like this:
As a spectator (no official capacity) I saw on Sat that plenty of players forgot to put their brain...
Don't want to put the moz on the boys but, PLEASE make sure you roll the KDL this weekend. I know both sides are not full strength but that is always the case with interleague. I hope the PFL boys really gel together and turn up with the right application and passion that is required to get the...
I'll put my two bits in - I usually read this thread and never contribute, but here goes;
With regard to assessing a coaches ability, I was lucky enough to play in successive premierships way back in 98,99 & 2000. The 98 flag was in a major league under a first time coach and to his credit got...
The Eagles are off to the banks of the Boosey to take on the Bears this week. Good to see that they can get back to playing games on their home deck. No one wants to be playing "away" for consecutive weeks.
I did hear that the change rooms were condemned and although it may put some financial...
Enjoying being able to walk on Sundays and having a few froffies on a Fri night! Plus been elevated to head coach of the u/7's on Sat mornings so that will take some focus. Gotta be 100% committed to get the best out of yourself in PDFL these days. Plus starting to get quite a good crew on the...
Heard on the grapevine there might be a spot for one old tuff mudder in the BP for the eagles seeing JBL and Timmy K won't be suiting up for rnd 1;). I reckon Besty might be looking for someone to keep Cowan quiet!!!:D
All bullsh!t aside, should be a belter b/n eagles and bombers this week. A...
Thanks Charles:thumbsu:
Hope your boys have a good year and that NW can smack the O&K in the interleague as well. Any damage you can inflict on the Kats pre season is good for the comp:D
Cheers
Good win by the pussies there. It will be interesting to hear the thoughts of the Katandra guys on the standard of footy of the NW clubs. This night comp is really the only comparison we get. Obviously there will always be the ol "we only had half a side palying" but I'd be interested to hear...
Wouldn't it be great if ALL of the best players in the SE comp make themselves available and smack the KDL to give us bragging rights in the age old arguement of which league is better!:thumbsu:
I too reckon that the coaching appoints are pretty right. Not that I had much time for the NW coach...
G'day Wash! Long time no speak. Just wondering how the boys are shaping up on the track so far. Who is burning it up? Are there any young eagles that are looking to step up to big boy footy this year? Big Larf reckons the ground is still weeks away from having anyone run around on it. That is...
Have Waaia kept their Numurkah connections from last year? You would think if they can keep them all, they would be better for having a year togehter + if they can top up with another couple they could be there abouts. Butht ey want to be on their fitness. Sounds like the eagles will be punching...
