Reckon Hampden may have Bendigo covered

I reckon ATM you are right!

Possibly. Nevertheless, Bendigo are still a top 10 league.

Bellarine have them. North central would go close at the moment and so would the murray league. Also sunraysia and central murray this year would be better

Rubbish. The potting of this league is going way too far. It has comfortably got all those leagues covered.

It doesnt really matter though in the grand scheme of things

Nully would have played finals in Bendigo

 

[Wild Thing]

O&M, GVFL, Geelong, Gippsland, MPFNL, Ballarat in no particular order. What are the other 4 leagues that are better?

Sorry had the Metro leagues included…..nonetheless yes like some have mentioned I reckon Bellarine, Hampden and Central Murray have gone past Bendigo with a few closing the gap so looking at just country leagues would be just in the top 10

Have you been to watch any of the other’s leagues ? Bendigo has slipped a long way except for the top two teams that played on the weekend

 

[Grimmett]

Intrigued by the measurement system being used to determine the strength of the various leagues being mentioned in this discussion point.
Quality of the premier team?
Depth of the finals teams?
Poor standard of the wooden spooners?
Average winning margin?
Number of games with players kicking multiple goals?
Seems a bit arbitrary just making an announcement.
When I was a kid I heard my grandfather talking to his mates about how the footy is not as good as it used to be and that money is ruining football. Fifty years later the footy is still not as good as it used to be and money is still ruining the game.
Taking a long time to kill it though.

But they did not even make finals in NCFL......posters really getting into silly season now.

Bring back interleague games/country championships?

They are a better side than Eaglehawk

 

[GG Rides Again]

They are a better side than Eaglehawk

I didn't see that game. What round did they play each other?
Nullawil had good individual players but as a team underperformed. But its all an arbitrary discussion.

 

[10571z]

Surely Broadford would be announcing players etc they had them?

They have one week to show cause.

Nully clicked in the second half of the year, but it was too late. The merged side will be one he'll of a side I'd imagine

I thought it was a 'done deal' by the omniscient few on here

I've been told that they have until September 30 to show that they have player numbers and some coaching structure in place. This includes the concept of them having only a thirds and reserves in the competition next year.

 

[masoncox_]

Geelong
O&M
MPFL
GV
Ballarat
Gippsland-Latrobe
Bendigo?

I watched the Gippsland gf. Standard wasn’t that great, I was surprised

Yep, they have been provisionally accepted but have to provide proof of participatants

So if Broadford can enter the league as a Reserves and Thirds only club, surely Maryborough remains as a Thirds only entity. Yes?

You couldn’t have two clubs in that boat, it would make the fixture ridiculous.

You’re spot on Forest. So based on BFNL logic, that’s probably what will happen.
