EDFL Div 2 discussion 2024

[Vlodrive]

Carroll has just lost the group or the group has lost Carroll. The players just don’t want to be there. A big off season of recruiting, restructuring the coaching and playing group, letting go of a few (a lot) of bag apples and a big pre season is needed to get this mighty club back in Div 1 where it belongs or the RDfL

They'll have plenty of points to use next year. For much of the year they were low to mid 30s with their points. That should give them some breathing space for recruiting.

Ressies are heading towards finals and their 17.5s are in their 3rd GF in a row this week (hopefully win this one) the future looks bright I think.

C grade reserves are not a great source for recruiting mate. I believe some at SK just enjoy playing reserves footy and good on them.

I never said it was mate. I'm just finding some positives.

Pretty sure Vlodrive is saying they have depth and room to recruit.

is it a worry for SK that Carrols book of contacts might be hesitant to play at a c grade club when they have (equally to maybe CD) Been the biggest disappointment this year?

I feel like they need to recruit senior blokes (ideally blokes who have had success at other strong clubs) who perhaps are done with the commitment required at higher level footy and can be mentors and drive the standards to the younger players.

In saying all this. the 2s have done well and the girls did make the finals. But we all know the reality is teams are in it to win senior premierships.

All good mate. The other issue is the travel to Sunbury at training times is not ideal. This is becoming a major problem for a lot of clubs outside the Essendon region. Now with Gisbourne Giants and potentially Melton South moving to Riddell opens up more avenues for players living around the Sunbury and surrounding areas. Good luck to SK though. Carroll always a very passionate coach so in good hands.

Good Vision as always, umpire push at 33:40 is interesting!

I did try the canteen. Hotdog and 2 potato cakes were spot-on. I also had a peak inside the clubrooms . . . . . 2019 was a big year - seniors and reserves premiership. Well done.

Vision doesn’t go to 33:40?

He's referring to the Seniors game at the 33:40 minute mark. Umpire gets pushed by a player.
Here's the link to the video:

Should be suspended. Absolutely pathetic. No wonder there is an umpire shortage. Says a lot about where SK are at the moment. Change is needed..

Far out that’s nothing really and clutching at straws.

Bit of mail that SK could be looking to go back to Riddell and had heard East Sunbury also considering it. Very interesting

Very unusual from Chris Lucas. He's usually cool as a cucumber.

Wonder if Carroll would still be at the helm if SK left for Riddell.

Surely edfl have a look at it

You can’t touch an umpire let alone intentionally push them. Done with malice too given he was paid a free against for holding the ball.

Think old mate (horse) had the hates on Sunbury Kangaroos.

Didn't look to be any intent involved.

very soft if that is the case, you dont make contact with an umpire, let alone in this case you can clearly see its intentional, EDFL tribunal have lost touch, need to protect the remaining umpires we have left. Clearly they are not
