Will kick 100 goals. Wasted talent in Div2, no Div 2 full back will stop him.

Fev playing on no.2 defenders in C grade, if they can the ball in enough they might be competitive next year

That’s a massive signing. His a premier standard footballer playing C grade footy. Could even kick more than 100.
I see a comment from Goater. Imagine if he was to sign also. Wow wee

Agree with you Vlo, I think after next season they’re in trouble knowing these guys who have signed won’t be in it for the long haul or won’t have that true connection to the club. They won’t go another year undefeated that’s for sure and don’t have many other options.. top 4 might be a stretch but who knows. How do they fit everyone in on points.. most are 4 pointers??? Does that mean half the side will be the players from this year who weren’t up to senior footy??? Interest to know. Paying big bucks hope it doesn’t bite. Not the true way to build long term success with breeding youth, but could pay off who knows. Few other sides will take some catching first
All their recruits are signing for 2 years. They won’t be a one year wonder. Their new coach has a vision and is being supported by the Club, he’s had good success wherever he’s been.

Agree the coach is a ripper, I’m surprised by the negative comments. They have picked up a player who will get them air time in Fev and will have contacts and also recruited an x-afl player who can work with the young players who are at the club.
Surely people are not saying they should have kept going as they were without making change and go with the Groundhog Day approach?
They have an energetic committee, strong coaching and assistants. Good on them for having a crack I respect people who take on the hard jobs I hope they go well.

Whats the go with Westmeadows every clearance they have submitted has been declined!
Is this a financial issue with the league (as in deny all clearances until overdues are paid?)

Not sure if that is the reason, but it seems fair if they aren’t financial or at least have a payment plan with the league

I have no idea either, however it does appear odd they are all rejected.

westy up to their old tricks so if they don't pay and the transfers don't go through what happens to the players ?
Why did the EDFL allow them to play for points and ultimately finals in 2024 if they were unfinancial?

I’m hearing big big trouble brewing down at Westmeadows…EDFL furious they’re still owed money yet club openly recruiting players, flaunting it on social media and splashing the cash. Rival clubs have been angry for some time that they have got away with it and been allowed to play for points.
The root of Westmeadows problems is now an EDFL board member. Under his reign Westmeadows had 2 of the biggest attended games in the history of the EDFL and they made zero money.

Probably the same reason they let them play in the 22 finals series when they were unfinancial and didn’t pay the league, coaches or players. About as financial viable and ethical as the Vic Gov

Well done to Northern Saints on the drafting of Kako. So glad they read the club name out as well so they get some notoriety for it.

How come all divisions are stable at 10 teams each yet Prem and D1 are final 5 and D2 will be a final 4?

Cannot play all GFs on the same weekend… hence why they have a premier league bye to ensure that the GFs are played on different weekends. Wouldn’t be fair to put two divisions GFs on the same day.

Could play one GF on the Saturday and one on the Sunday. Extra final so more money to the league and an extra team gets to experience finalsOn iPhone using BigFooty.com mobile app
Stagger the starting date of each division. It’s not that difficult.Could play one GF on the Saturday and one on the Sunday. Extra final so more money to the league and an extra team gets to experience finals
