Spencer,
A fairly good summary. Agree re the Friars. Heard big noises from out of Donvale and they will be hard to beat. You have underestimated the Reds though Spencer as a top two finish is assured given the neccessary changes at the top and aggressive recruiting.
Pretty much agree with the rest.

I see we have been highly rated first-up! Will give us something to aim at...Looking forward to being up in C Grade and hoping for a big year.

i have heard rumors of careys recruitment campaign and by the sounds of it will have some first rate players of ex RFC & coburg tigers calibre is this rumor true? if so and they manage to keep the rest of their list from last yr i think they may finish top 2. should be a very tight and interesting 2007

Think OCamb will make finals. Is it true the Ol dScotch Captain of this year will be playing with them in 07?

Carey had some good Under 19's in 2005-2006 and need them to step up. Overall they have a good top 10 but need some pace for this league. They need a genuine tall forward to trouble for a GF.
Top 4 for sure - no question.

Have you ever seen Carey??? I watched the GF and they had 3 massive forwards...Bull, Angus and Wood. All 6 foot 5 plus. And the comps leading goalkicker Parton (the regular full forward) was watching on the sidelines injured.
Tall forwards and dangerous forwards are the least of their concerns.
Pace? Looked good on grand final day.
I think Reds, Whitefriars, Ormond and Old Camberwell will make the 4. Old Carey are a chance if there list has improved by 20% or they have marked improvements from the under 19's. May sneak into the 4, but mid table more likely. They were in D2 3 years ago, so i am sure a consolidating year in C would be all the club would be looking for, before trying to get into B Grade the year after.
Seem like a very young club, so will be strong for a long time. Unders are playing Division 1 for the first time this year i think.

Unders were beaten for pace by Camberwell Under 19's in 2006 GF - 11 goals. Their 'good' players for the year had a bad finals series supposedly.
Wood - 6'5 ? ? Really ? ?
Parton remains injured badly - 2007 maybe a non event for him ? ? His loss over the course of a whole season would be a tradegy. Nothing less.
Where Carey were 3 years ago is a not really worth discussing - the interesting stat. remains they have a lot of good solid players aged 24-28 and that is a great thing. St Bedes had this also - you don't want too many guys aged 21 and below playing C Grade Seniors. It can be a long year for a young amateur footballer.
Wood - 6'5 ? ? Really ? ?

Only 3-4 Unders will play in the senior side in my opinion
Wood - 6'5 ? ? Really ? ?
Looked huge. Hansie who posted earlier is a Carey man. He can help us here. Bull and Angus are big boys. They had a massive forward line

Certainly would. I think he will comeback mid year

Yes it is. Trying to get from d2 to a grade is a massive task. It will take time. If i was involved at Carey my first aim would be to avoid relaegation in my first year in C and just consolidate. Finals would be a bonus.

Agree. I think only 3-4 young kids will play in the 1's.

Yeah, Woody would probably touch the 6'5" mark.
Spencer Johnson

Under 19's who have graduated or current ones ? Their Unders in 2005 and 2006 did very well. Won a lot of games . . . . not finals per say obviously.
Are they definitely Section 1 in 2007 (Premier Section as it now called?)
Interesting. That would good for them to be exposed to the better sides again.
Blacks - Reds - Monash
They all have great stories from moving 2-3 grades in quick time. Blacks have gone up at such a rate they do now boast a B Grade reserves flag - not bad at all. Weren't they D2 in 2000 ?

One interesting thing in C is the teams that have been there a while now . . . i.e more than say 3 seasons
Camberwell I think have been there 4 and shooting for 5th straight season in C ?
Parkdale - this will be 4 in 2007 ?
I am not sure other sides have been there that long without moving up or down.

Poor rumour. I know a few blokes at the club and he will be there till he retires.
Any news yet on Old Camberwell recruiting a few Old Scotch players? Including 06 Captain?

Beranger has definitely quit Scotchies and will play there if Balwyn don't lure him with some $.

What about Monash ? Rumours are surfacing they have lost several key contributors in 2006 including C Gregory - MASSIVE LOSS
I am putting them in my bottom 2 from now right thru until March - can not have them at all - missed their window - poor juniors - losing key characters round the club - not impressed by their capacity to recover such losses.
Is this the side who will battle in 2007 ?
Won 2 games in their last 10 games of 2006 I think ? Their record second half of the year was officially poor.

RE: old carey
parton will not play all year, not midseason, not finals.... NOTHING.
hasn't even started rebuilding the wasted muscle in his leg, let alone any kind of impact work or running.
jogga, going o/s, unlikely to play much, if any part in season.

Did he play at all in 2006 ? I thought he coached somewhere now (assistant at least somewhere)
Parton massive loss for Carey.

Spencer - have heard similar murmurings...believe they have lost 5-6 of their best 22 and with no depth last year heaven help them. In addition to Gregory, I believe Captain and regular state player, Julian Smith has retired after an illustrious career. Need to do something radical after an abysmal second half of '06
Jogga and Parton will be big losses for OC , but they pounded sides in the finals (inc us-oggers) without Parton. Apparently handy centreman Ratcliffe has also gone o/s. On the other side of things.. big rumours on the recruiting side. with Kent, Evans returning, and rumours of OS FF, Murphy ( ex mitcham Sth Croydon), some bloke/s from Coburg... and other OS names..now i know every club is good at blowing steam, and i have only heard this third hand.. but these would more than cover losses i would think and put them in upper levels Kent and Evans are very very good. Reckon parton will play last 5 or 6 but could be wrong.. he takes good care of himself, and is physically strong. 9 months is safely do-able
Is it true no more Loats?? that would be a blow ,even with Tallis, but have heard the Tallis rumour before.
I know you C-graders may not be interested, but anyone seen rambo ramsdens brother play- he is coming to us from OT.?
Well back to D grade-- least til 2007

Not bad angel! fFinally someone has also put the right team on top! Need to swap Ormond with camberwell and parkdale with Mazenod. Reds humming along very nicely under the radar since the departure of Red Roy!
A strict no spruiking policy now at the Reds!
