Drew cant drink of that we all know. but the man has more balls than a brass monkey, i have seen him have a go at some rather large people.. e.g. shepard from kerang and wes pie.. two rather large gentlmen. doubt big planty would make hima act any different... drew doesnt wander over like he is going to take on the world. a very quiet person who form my experience puts his body on the line where many of the t/m players will not.....

With post's like this footy 02 i would say you are the homma.

no sean charles is still out with a leg injury has been doing some extensive recovery work in kyabram should mabye be back this week.

Did the Lalbert boys know he was to be a no-show. Heard last week he just did bother to let anyone know. Are the eagles banking on him or is it just a bonus if he turns up???

I cannot wait for Cliftons come back after reading Howards speel in The Footballer. Come on Clifton don't let us down.

Mmm would be very interesting if Planty happened to read this post, wha do you think FOOZ. I can't recall Planty hitting any kids on Saturday, it wasn't even him who disposed of Darcy. I just made mention of how interesting it was to see Drew Arentz wander over all angry and looking as if he was going to take the world on then quickly re consider when he saw that Planty was in amongst it. A smart move i would have thought on Drew's behalf

I seem to remember a game out at lalbert versus tooleytang where a certain L.Bennett received a smack in the mouth which resulted in tears in his eyes.

Now that was interesting don't you think.

Yeah come on Clifton, pack another punch. That story and the events that have followed have been great reading in an otherwise pathetic media publication. Lets face it sport is news, and football is one of the largest employers and business sectors in the region so there should be more coverage of the great game especially for the GRFL. Take a look at other leagues that are classed as major leagues (not that CMFL still should be), their league websites are fantastic & ours is pathetic and in their media coverage it is a lot better than ours, but i do agree that it is better since you have been chief sports writer Brad

If the Cmfl should not be classed as a major. i would hate to see what the grfl should be classed. Because it is a joke. Our coverage in the media on footy is one of the finest around. The guardian do a better job than most other local papers, purely and simply because it is the only reason people read it (Not that there information is always correct).. and how many leagues get a weekly commentry on the radio.. and weekly reports on 3sh , 1077 and smart fm...

grfl a joke? Well I guess everyone is aloud to have their own opnion but unfortunately your opnion is the same....a joke!

I value your opinion and in all fairness I probably should have gone a bit further to say that my call was in reference to the gloved ones call about cmfl not being major league. Both leagues have dropped 8 fold over the past years (As Mr. Filo said in paper) But the bottom line is that i have watched a few games of both leagues this year and the grfl is poor.. I remember years ago when fish mcgowan could not get a game in his prime for a strong murrabit side.. he ended up being an interleauge ruckman for cmfl.. which shows had low cmfl has sunk as well.. I hope they will not be offended by me mentioning they 're names but former grfl footballers .. carrol and connick would back me up i would think, when i say that the standard is rather low..

Would you believe that the gap in wideing in the sense of the stronger sides to the weaker sides. The CMFL is becoming a one sider affair unfortunately. The stronger sides are the best in northern victoria. But beause of the money being flung around these days players cant afford to represent the league because they dot want to get injured. As i said in a earlier post the D pool is no where near the names we have in this league

I agree to a certain extent.. but cmfl top sides would not come with in 10 goals of ovens and murray teams or A grade amo teams.
QUESTION FOR ALL BIG FOOTY FANS
Interms of grfl v's cmfl . It would be interesting to see what would happen if someone were to go to ultima (Relitively strong) or Wakool (TOp 3) even and put the following proposal to them....
"We want you to put up $5000, want you to put your best side on the field against woorinen's best side(Bottom 2).. winner take all" how many people (NOt emotionally attached but realistically) out there would think that the mentioned grfl sides would agree???
personally I beleive that woorinen would win by 5 to 8 goals...

I am not trying belittle the grfl, but trying to be realistic and create some chat..

Don't know what game you were at Roota to not notice the fifteen free kicks Planty gave away with high hits on mostly the saints young fella's while they were on the bottom of the pack dishing the footy out! If Planty is so tuff why didn't he belt D Arentz when he was remonstrating after D Ryan got king hit? From where i was watching he had every opportunity, maybe kids with there head over the footy are more his style! Lalbert not dragging him (15 free's against and 1 kick one handball) and giving Luke Bennett 3rd best after J Arentz kicked 9 on him even though he had a spell in the 2nd shows how bad they are travelling. Time to be a bit smarter with the recruiting out that way!

That was a King Hit too, and a broken jaw resulted and strangely ne report so too hear an investogation may be on the way regarding Saturday is very ordinary. What happened on the weekend was ordinary and we all hate to see it happening, but there are a couple of Saintsa running around that have dished a few out over the time

I totally agree that any one who gets 9 kicked on him does not deserve to be in the best on any day. Very embarrasing

I'd have Lance Brown in their ahead of Marcus. He would be on a par with Charlesy

 

[SwanHillPremiers2006]

Everyone agree with the inclusion of banger holt i might be a little bit byast i see him play every week! but i have never seen a full forward tackle like him! would love to have him higher in the list but the blokes above have acheived so much.

The standard of all country footy has slipped ,and it has nothing to do with the players either.It is the way foot ball is structured by the VCFL,countryclubs lose all their good young players to the poineers usually never to return.You dont see ex AFL players returnig to the bush any more to coach to put abit back into grassroots football The game at the big end of town is greedy and run by people with egos

Roota, i did not no that a king hit consisted of someone facing an opponent taking a swing at them then forgetting to duck and getting smacked in the jaw. thus a broken jaw resulting.

this is only my opinion but i just can not see how you could have fullfowards in the top 5. i agree that they are great players but they dont kick the balls to themselves. what about the work horses that give the fullfowards the ball, like your chilterns, guerras, thamms, smiths, just to name a few but there are many more from other teams that feed these fullfowards weekly.

Firstly - I didn't mention anything about the standard of the GRFL i mentioned that it should get more coverage in the Swan Hill paper & in my opinion the CMFL is no longer a major league. I also said since Brad has been at the Guardian the football coverage has improved but it could be better, major leagues such as Geelong, O&M, GV, MP, Ballarat, Bendigo, Gippsland etc all have a great coverage of football in print media, radio that would be better than what we get.
Secondly - You agree that Mr Filo said this league has dropped 8 fold. He is a man who's opinion would be valued by many and if he says the league has dropped 8 fold then that would mean it is no longer a major league considering there are only four divisions. Again your mentioning in reference to me that the standard of GRFL is poor and I agree I just think they are the second league in this area and it doesn't get enough media coverage.
Maybe the two leagues in this area need to sit down with other neighbouring leagues and work out how to best manage the way footy standard has decreased and get football in this area back to where it was years ago when we were playing against Geelong, La Trobe Valley etc.
