EDFL Div 2 discussion 2024

[RustyGatez]

Kicked goals in Div 3 (49 in 2023 & 59 in 2022) last year 17 goals in Div 2 but as I haven’t seen him play I’m not going to write him off. In 23 there was an even spread of goals, lots of 3s and 4s where as in 22 he kicked 37 goals against Laverton and NSunshine.

Interesting…believe he played a fair bit down back this year so explains the 17 goals. Which was reason why he looked elsewhere and had a connection with Trembearth apparently and Haddy needed a key forward so it worked out.

Someones gotta help hhhh

What an interesting finals series, Burnside hit buy injuries and omitted out quickly. Saints too young and westmeadows not good enough. Interesting recruiting by westmeadows for 2025 with past players walking out on a struggling club over match payments and chasing the money elsewhere this season. And know have come running back to the club for cash . Unfortunately those that stuck by the club this year will be hung out to dry . The truth hurts

Please name the players who will be hung out to dry?

sorry forgot them but they seem to be having a bit of a power struggle with coaches as we have read on big footy so it might not be the ideal place to recommend

No power struggle at Rupo. Great vibe down there. New facilities are just about completed. ( and not a moment too soon) Whole list has recommitted for 25. Think that alone should put your power struggle theory to bed.

J Hollows wants to come back and has asked for good coin. Surely the President and coach say no we have plenty of similar size and style of players already don't upset the apple cart the players are on very little mow due to love of club

Send like a very desperate move that can only end up going one way. Got a sniff of Jacana and cloke about it... not that I blame cloke for taking the cash offered. It's up to he club to ensure that what they have is sustainable.... fev isn't the answer

My son plays at Westmeadows, so might want to tell blokes and coaches to keep the noise in house, been trying to get him out of the place for the last 3 years, he is old enough to make his own choices.
Good luck next year

Delivery driver you can clearly see it was Goes Bang that made those remarks. Apologie accepted

It’s an interesting one as they needed something to raise the profile. Problem is with no gate takings and people bringing their own beers you will need other sources to make the coin back. He will do a luncheon I’m sure.

Even at 44 he will probably do ok in this division but will he stay the course of the season??

Turbo, I agree with you and I’ll throw in my 2 cents

This is a horrible way to rebuild. Word is they have or will lose by round 1 half of their senior side from last year. It’s the better half of the side too mind you. They may get a couple recruits off the back of this but are they getting sucked in to a 44 year old who may only play 5-8 games.

Committee only looking after their bar and canteen and some buzz around. The novelty will wear off after a while. Every club in the EDFL C grade will benefit if he plays them at their home grounds $$$.

He won’t train, doesn’t he live in Beaumaris?

East looking for a bandaid fix for one season. They probably had no choice, but I worry about them for 2026 when Fev leaves and they have won 1-2 games or none at all. 3 years on the bottom doesn’t allow you to recruit.

Dave I’m sure is a good bloke, but to me this was silly. Happy to be proven wrong or be told wrong. This just spells disaster if he only plays 5 games and leaves or gets injured. I’m sure if they recruit a few then some loyal boys will get pushed out and thrown to the skip bin. Just like Steve the twos coach and Trav the head coach.

Good luck to them, my opinion only. Hope they do get what they want out of it but I’m not confident

Im sure he will train Thursday nights otherwise not worth it as would surely be 1500min.

Just so I’m clear, they are losing players and you think bringing in Fev will bring in a few more recruits.
When they do recruit more players local boys will get pushed out?
Am I reading this correctly? Sorry I’m confused
