I think he might mean that Reidy is fat and that Bunga boys don't have very good turning circles.

I saw Orwin play a couple of times this year, namely against Redan and he had no influence on the game what so ever. I have heard the same though that he definitley has the goods. Should be a very handy pickup for Buninyong. Anyone have any other news on signings?
 
Learmonth can you name any definite signings at Learmonth? Also can you name players who are training with the Lakies with you guys hoping to sign them?

Have heard a whisper of Big Justin Porter from Carnam Linton to Buninyong. anyone confirm:thumbsu: or deny the rumour:thumbsdown: .
 
A mate of mine was talking to Sacco @ the Torquay Pub on Sat night & he confirmed he was playing for Ballan..& for 400 good reasons. He said they had "7 recruits & should win it". Ballan must b throwing plenty around but if they pick up 7 quality recruits he may be right.

Sacco is a handy player but wouldn't have thought he was worth $400.

Agree with you there, don't think he is worth $400. Handy CHFL player but when you are getting paid anything over $200 you have to be the bloke who gets 40 touches a game, or kicks 8-10 goals and wins a team every game. Money is killing country footy!

As for Ballan it looks like they are going all out to try and get some success, good luck to them if they can afford it....

Agree with Velvet, not worth anywhere near $400. But is Chris Wills "Sebas" worth $500.00, they seem to be offering huge coin.

Wills is a good player, but not anywhere near a player that should be pocketing that sort of money. Being involved in a treasurers role in the past, I know how had a club works to make $500. That's a lot of pies and pasties on a saturday and for a bloke to turn up for 2 hours a pocket it, well I hope he's there cleaning the rooms the next day!

Granted Footy these days is 90% about money, but I'm really not sure how some of these blokes can seriously look the canteen ladies and the other volenteers in the face.

The most important thing for these clubs is to attract loyal players. If they pay a player that just rocks up and plays, then the chances of retaining him are small. The kind of players you want are the type that will go to all the functions during the year and give a bit back to the club.
Chris Wills was a solid enough backmen in the BFL and i feel he will be a great player in CHFL. I just hope he doesn't Play for the money and actually gets involved with the club. People will enjoy their football much more.

On this topic.......Shaun Mullane (Waubra) - has gone to Southern Districts in the Northern Territory League. Huge loss for the Waubra midfield, and an example of someone who is a great clubman and doesn't play for the cash!!

Disagree with this comment. I would pay him 400 a game. a very good on baller who has been in some ordinary sides. Always gives his all. I am suprised that he is leaving Newlan thou. Heard late last year that they were offering him the coaching position. anyone know what has happened therr?

Mullet will be huge loss for the preseason. I'm sure the Roos will struggle without him during those warm nights training at BHS. He'll be back for season proper though.

Disagree with you there Uncle CC. My sources tell me that Mullane has left the club for good. Apparently had a falling out with Skontra after he's behaviour at Mully's wedding. Waubra will really struggle this year if they don't pull some big name recruits like the other top 5-6 clubs.

I have heard this also.. very disappointing to hear but i think he will be tied up in Darwin for 18months anyway
On the recruiting front i think Skona may be luring Wayne Riggs back which would be huge coup 4 the club. He tore the A rse out iof the CHFL in 04.

Also I think Mat Clarke is hanging up the boots inorder to concentrate on his body building career.
 
Please elaborate on the Skontra-Mullane fallout Harry HP. Skontra's behaviour at the wedding seems to juicy to not have more details!!!!

Look im not obliged to say. But i knew a couple that went and heard it was the skontra of the old days. Loose, Skulls, Knee Slides on the D-Floor etc. Where the actual fallout occured im not too sure, but im sure it would have been a heated confrontation for Mully to leave he's beloved Waubra.

Definately not velvet... Harry is taking the piss out of his coach.. the Skontra- Mullane relationship is still in very good shape...
In fact if Skona was to turn it would b for Mullane or maybe Ben Naylon.
