EDFL Div 1 Discussion 2023

[move on boys]

Has anyone stop to think if EK wanted Ranno to begin with. Let’s put it this way they get who they believe will make a difference. Let’s leave it at that, Pacco can have him. Needs a lot of work to be a good A Grade player full stop.

EK had a proper go, and were rejected. That’s a fact!

How Abers going by the way ?

 

[umpires call]

They’ll surprise and win first game at home

Church has been training with westy and at this stage looks set to stay. The midfield has been depleted so that will not help but they wont be as bad as what ppl are saying. Mid to lower range at seasons end.

it will be like the second coming of JC if they do with the talent drain out of the joint

Fact is he approached EK and wanted a guaranteed spot. We said no so yes he “rejected” us if you want to call it that. Someone else said the same demands were being asked of his club. Personally I’d rather players compete for spots not expect to be walk ins even after a horrible performance.

Another fact… EK got the best WM player in my opinion in Nabbout. Can’t deny that can you Grem.

So why even bother setting up a meeting with him if you didn’t want him?? Cmon just admit he didn’t want to go to you club..Like your name says just “move on” as who really cares. Good luck to the kid as credit to him going to premier.

Hopefully the Roys dont drop too far this season. They have done it tough the last few years so hopefully get a few wins early to build moral

This has to be the most silliest comment anyone has ever said on this forum, it is absolutely laughable.

Turbo I don’t know if you have any idea about running a club mate. But if a player contacts you and is interested in playing for your club why wouldn’t you have a meeting. You never turn down a meet for a player, even if you personally think he is not in your best 22 on paper whose to say he can’t suprise you and force his way into ur Team.

But when they have demands as he did then you move on. You do understand another poster here said he had the same demands of his club. Do you hate EK that much that you try spin everything we say into bs?

Fun fact for you mr PV and this is from the horses mouth as I was told first hand from someone, he told Pat he was talking to PV as well as acouple others and they guaranteed him a game, when he heard his demands he told him go have another meeting with PV.

2 clubs have now said he had the same. Think that’s enough proof mate.

Stop talking shit for once in your life and acting like you know anything whatsoever when you have literally no clue.

Some fair points here Bash.

Do you honestly think Digby and his coaching staff would guarantee a kid from Div 1 a game in a prem team that played off in a PF last season given the quality of players they have seemed to have signed already...?

Has he actually even signed at Pacco? I've heard he's not even been to any trainings is this because he's training at Bullants or...

 

[delivery driver]

Tommorow is the day for clearances we are estimating 29 clearances from west meadows within the first week as the club is in financial turmoil

 

[delivery driver]

Shaun McKernan to Bundoora

 

[delivery driver]

Jacob Thompson to first div amateurs in a part time playing coaching role

If you don’t want a said player then why waste yours and the players time. You mentioned you didn’t even want him so why even go there. Plus I mentioned let’s just move on as you continue to raise this player/subject it’s becoming boring. Let the player go where he wants. If you miss out then move on rather than bag an individual.

I don’t hate EK either just making rebuttal to your statements that’s all.

Haven’t seen any comms from Edfl to say clearance’s open.

Probably still haven’t employed new media person

I don’t know digby from a bar of soap, no idea what was said in his player meeting. Wouldn’t put it past many coaches just saying yea we are confident you play every game to get a signature and if they are good enough great, if not they deal with it when the time comes. Not saying that’s what happened I have no idea like I said.

Think he was attempting to train at bullants so would explain that

You do realise that is the common theme in a meeting yeah?? If you’re good enough you play seniors and if your form is not up to scratch or there is a better alternative pushing for that spot you “could” be playing 2s. Gee whiz it’s not hard. I’m really unsure of your knowledge in football tbh.

Obv turbo clearly your not understanding what I’m saying here mate so let’s leave it there. Couldn’t give a flying f… about this topic.

Wasted enough time debating with you over something I know all about, and you who doesn’t have any clue about the topic but trying to rebutle something that has no rebutle because I’m talking FACTS.

Please explain how you are talking FACTS when you have said multiple times you’re not involved at EK and don’t even get to every game as you sometimes watch the vision. Were you in the meetings?? I’m very confused as are others!!

Oh and I don’t hate EK and think what is happening there for them to be competitive would have been accepted by other clubs in a similar situation. Just don’t agree with the theory of throwing huge $$ at average players. But I do give your Pres credit as he supports the juniors which is great and putting in many hours of his time. Anyone willing to support community sport is doing well.

Cheers

I think we all have 'moved on' from that magical realism nonsense about a day after proclamation ...

Give it up Turbo!! Bash has said many times he isn't involved at EK ... Move on Boys has said he is in recruitment at Abbers ...

Yet strangely they are the two most vocal posters on here regarding EK and Pat's exploits ... Bash does on occasion forget his role, timing and lines ... but he is mostly consistent.

This constant routine is akin to the late ventriloquist Ron Blaskett. (Not sure which is Gerry Gee?)

 

[BlueJet]

Setting aside the agendas here..
"Player wants assurances of playing time" is hardly headline worthy.
It seems as though EK feel as though they have adequate playing stocks in place, whilst I'm sure Pacco are happy to have secured Ranno's services.
In the words of Abers best poster since Prophetic - move on boys.

Given it's a NATIONWIDE thing I doubt they'd need a league specific release.

That said are they sticking with the old SP system or migrating to PlayHQ where finding said clearances are harder?
