good luck to the big red head, named clint anthony ward tomorrow. he dominated last week and with a game under his belt he will destroy anything they throw at him. would hate to be the full back.. hope the boys at learmonth had a good day sunday. heard a few things went missing. GO CLINTON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes, its a continuation from the injury last year when I dislocated my shoulder.Last year they thought 6 months off and some rehab would strenghen the shoulder, but it wasnt the case. Dislocated it against Waubra and at the same time tore subscapular and supranatis tendons. Only way to repair and tighten is to operate. Not sure of time frame for rehabilitation but local doctors have said 6 months before being able to play contact sport. Ill wait and see what the surgeon sais, but certainly wont be back this season from what im gathering.
Learmonth you taking a pay cut now your injured or you going to keep the extra cash and put it towards a new visor?
Seeing as you were employed as a playing coach and you're not going to be doing much playing I would think that at least some of the $$$ your getting paid should be returned to the club.

I'll take your bait on that one 07.
When AJ was interviewed for the coaching position, he had retired from playing in the BFL many months earlier due to cronic ankle injuries. This was widely reported and known by everyone except you FOOTY 07 it appears.
He was interviewed and hired as a coach for 2 years, but not even AJ could tell us if he could get back on the paddock again.
Some subsequent major surgery, rehab, the odd injection and body management has enabled AJ to play a dozen or so games each of the last two seasons, which has been an absolute bonus for us on the paddock.
We're bloody glad he accepted a contract extension to stay on with us as coach.
End of story.

He's at Bunninyong, from all accounts playing alright, has been all over the ground, wing, forward mostly.
Very athletic, decent hands, good player, only weakness is his kicking, he is a terrible kick, boh at goal and around the ground.

Is Michael Davis playing for Dford thid year or is he off to the ammos with his brother?
Thanks Johnny, finally something interesting has come up.... Not sure on Davis, but as we all know his old man was coaching for free last year, but mick made sure he was not coming up the highway for free. He was the highest paid player in the CHFL last year, and a handy player too. The money isn't there this year so maybe he's walked, or he could only be playing the big games to save them money, so next week against Hepburn could be his first game. Interesting to see that Kenny Cummings is wearing his number 25 and Mick has been relegated to number 54, going by the footy record. This may suggest the Dogs wont see much of him in 2008.......
To the rest of you readers this site is getting pretty boring, if i was in a pub having a drink with you lot, i'd probably go and drink with the women. At least they always have something to talk about. Round 2 and its mid week and no news on the games from the weekend. Are we all going to rely on the Courier to accuratley inform us?
Dfd v Bft... Has the dogs slipped or just had a bad day? or maybe Beaufort have improved
Bunga beat D'twn round 1 then got flogged in the wet by Learmth, Maybe AJs boys are the real deal
Tranquilli was going to kick 20 by all reports, was the weather that bad at Buninyong, recruit Gunn BOG
Newlyn undefeated, have they improved?
Waubra bounced back with a vengance.......
Surely someone was at these games so please give us something to talk about
Well how about filling us in on your game, going by the courier it said reports and injuries for both teams. Any of Hepburns big guns?

lee cox has done his knee out for season
Nev Purtell was having scans for a possible broken jaw, but not as serious as first thought and Rodney Watts left the field with a leg injury, but by all reports it's just a corky. Matt Dillon will miss this week through suspension. so What have you got for me old mate?
Bungaree have a lot of players that arnt in the record and didnt name in the paper (they go okay-n.o 17 tall ruckman and moves well). They are better then what everyone first thought, but from my perception rnd 1 can cause upsets and I think they got Dunnstown on a lucky day. They wont make the top 5. Reid played midfield for 90% of the day and was good, but he was recruited as a key forward and thats where they struggled all day, and very one dimensional through Nicholson who has lost a lot of weight.
Dunnstown this week, wil be tough, they have beaten Learmonth the last two times we have played them by 12 & 10 points. Massive game for the Lakies as if we can win this game then we get a 2 game break on the towners who were early pre-season favorites for top 3. Will be interesting to see if D'town play Brearly and the 2 injured Carr boys. They are a massive loss, being in their best 5 along with Mckay & Sidebottom. Sawyers is good but has never really dominated against us, so hopefully he wont this week.
Majority of the sides haven played anyone yet so hard to judge who is travelling well, top sides can get bottled up against lower placed sides in wet weather if they arnt disciplined.
Also a point of note, heard that Jake Dignan (Nth Roosters/Buninyong) played for Beaufort on the weekend. An email was sent to clubs, stating players must be registered. I hope the league acts on this as technically he is still a Buninyong player. Surely Beaufort couldnt have thought they would get away with that. VCFL rules state that if true, its a forfeit and the scoreline reads Dford 60- Beaufort 0 as thats what the rules state with scores. Time to act CHFL delegates and secretary ensuring that this league doesnt become a joke with allowing this to happen. Also not sure what the monetary penalty is, but hit them with that 2.

Thanks mate. He played at Stanhope last year in our premiership side and was a very handy recruit. As you mentioned he is very athletic and has a good set of hands. Played across the centre for us on a wing and half forward.
Waubra been splashing the cash about. $1000 sign on payments & 350 a game to Dean Chester and Rob Greig from Nth Ballarat. $2000 for 2 blokes that may not even play a match. Also believe they may have offered the same to a couple of other Nth guys, Jacob Spolding may have been 1.
Heard Dunnstown star recruit Simon Brearly could miss 10 weeks or worse with a knee injury. Also Jaye Caher could be out for a month with a leg injury of some sort. Calf?? Big blow for them after some good recruiting in the off season if true.
