EDFL Div 1 Discussion 2024

[lekshuuu]

Not sure, but Covelli hasn’t missed a game this season so obviously that has helped him and Hillside. Does appear to be stronger & fitter. Huge bonus in div1 to have a power forward as they are gold.
Round 16 v MV
Round 17 they have the bye
Round 18 vs Marby.

Huge effort if he can get 100 in H&A season. If it was an 18 game season he would, but being a 16 game season not easy.

Would be a massive effort if he could. Might get it come finals time

Could kick 10+ against MV but doubt he kicks more than 4 against Marby

With only 3 rounds left, who are the top players at every club that could be a chance for BnF or team of the year?

Jordan Gloury. Oh wait

How many senior coaches get up early and attend the whole 18s games? Noticed Craigieburn senior coach assists the 18s which is great commitment to a club and must be great for the juniors to see such dedication. Yes they are struggling a bit in senior & reserves but it’s going to hold them in good stead over the next few years with a senior coach with that attitude. Another benefit is often 18s can get a bit fiery at times but having your senior coach present keeps the right mindset and disciplines.

Yes I’ve been a critic of Craigieburn over the years but credit where it’s due..

I think all the good coaches would be investing in the U18’s and reserves as well. Only way to continue to grow sustainable is through the U18’s and depth coming through

Craigieburn have some excellent kids. They may well (eventually) be that powerhouse many predicted a long time ago.

From Moonee Valley, Bevan Newell and Harrison Fry have been the clear standouts.

James Kayrooz definitley one. What a recruit hes been and I'd like to think hes one capable of stepping upto Premier div and potentially even VFL.

 

[Flyingleslieskite]

West Coburg are back to host a home game at Coburg City Oval/Piranha Park for the first time since pre covid....against Keilor Park of all clubs

Hillside I’ve seen all games either live or video.

Covelli - Leading goal kicker, one on one just so strong, leads well, for his size he’s decent at ground level, good kick for goal, can he get to 100 goals.

Pettigrove - Unique defender in that he’s not key position height but intercepts in the air like a tall & on the ground, strong, uses his speed out of defence & kicks well on non-dominant side.

Prestia - Midfield bull inside wins clearances, tackles well, damaging long kick, kicks goals as a mid, team player & leads by example as captain.

All 3 have had excellent seasons & worthy team of year contenders.

Would love to see big Covelli win the comp b&f and HS b&f. Has been so dominant, clearly the MVP of the comp in my opinion. Sick of these awards always dominated by midfielders. He must be a chance.

Well said Bissa. Have to be a huge chance as been super consistent. His an entertainer so surely in the umpires view and rarely disputes decisions. He should end up with 90odd over 16 games which averages out to almost 6 per game.

They have a heap of talent in their 16s as well, they will be strong in 4 or 5 years and full of 1 pointers which will allow them to get 2 or 3 marquee players.

That’s the problem they can’t seem to land marquee players over recent times other than the Cloke boys. They have the $$ I believe just can’t land em. I would assume partly due to the travel and the traffic to get out that way, as it’s a commitment. Seriously the roadworks in this state are the worst I’ve seen in a long time.

The road works at the moment are an issue. Around DS and that end of Craigieburn rd has been effected for nearly two years now with little end in sight. Has been a nightmare, especially for the local businesses.

I was told the fencing around the ground has come down and it's hard to make any money on the number 2 ground.
