[bazzinger punk]

Yeh concerning comes to mind when you think about those clubs....

Jacana I heard are just rock bottom at the moment

Moonee Valley, well, I have heard rumours of players they have picked up.... one of those wait and see things

Roxy Park will be the big movers I believe, have heard they have had big numbers at there sessions and looking good under a new coach. Once again, a wait and see thing..

Keilor Park......Who Knows!!! I didnt see this coming!! How far will they fall, if they do....






Keilor Park had about 30 on the track on their first night which is really pleasing for them

Silly me I thought there were only 13 rounds next season for a second haha!

Definitely Taylors Lakes v. West Coburg and APW vs. Glenroy are the biggest games, Tulla vs. Hadfield games are usually close in the first half before one team blows the other away in the second

Westmeadows vs northern saints round 1 AGAIN!!



If all the rumors going around about jacana are true i can't see them lasting too much longer to be honest... Were doing well a few years back when they won four games in 09 maybe??? while pat o'neill was coach there... Once upon a time jacana had a very strong craigieburn connection a number of ex craigieburn guys used to play there... Need to get those guys back and re-establish that link.. Hate to see a club on it's knees

Heard the league is quiet happy with Jacana after starting last season with a quite large amount of $ owed to the EDFL to now being fully financial with the edfl and being eligble to vote at last weeks meeting unlike several other clubs who where unable to vote due to owing $ to EDFL. Believe Jacana are in the best position they have been for some time.

Clearances opened today.

Moonee Valley the only B Grade club with incoming players listed so far, about 6 I think I counted

Who couldn't vote? Can you list them?

 

[retired57]

Re Jacana Vote Yes they appear to be FULLY Financial and great to see that they are paying bills rather than players. The other funny thing was that there was some question / debate prior to meeting as to if they indeed could vote as the new Jacana president "Had not been ratified by the borad" what ever that means? I think they voted but can not be sure.
The matter of being financial appears to be that if you are on a "Pay off / time payment plan to the EDFL" then you are deemed to NOT FINANCIAL. From what I hear it was not 100% clear who was able to vote as the EDFL DOES NOT dislose who is financial and who is not.

Tulla boys looking sharp as always. Had to mention that

Has anyone heard about Glenroy, Is Mr Whitnall enjoying himself there??

I take it your from Tulla tiger roar...

Can you confirm or deny any "rumours" about Tulla from previous posts?

Who have you lost and who have you picked up?

Good to hear they are working hard on their issues

But Being financial means nothing if you can't Keep your players or attract any new ones

Pretty sure none of them were senior players... Can't recall seeing their names in their senior team lists


Not saying those guys are but juniors are also included on clearance listings... So sometimes it's hard to tell how many players are exactly are incoming for their senior side

 

[snax]

Tullamarine - M Allouche,S & D D`Orazio,J Harmes & J Laverde.(WRFL)

Pretty sure most of these players are from Tulla's senior list

Also heard that Rajab and Bakapolous are off to Northcote Park FC

A heads up on RollingMeadows / Now East Sunbury...... Well the club itself and the EDFL have moved on this prematurely. We talk growth and but people are leaving the club .The club was very,very uncompetative even in the lower divisions of the RDFL ,and as it stands right now the move into a better competition will see them get flogged in season 2012. They will struggle to even field teams in the U16 & 18 divisions as they dont have enough junior players at the club. They have promised the EDFL the world and will not deliver and they will be embarrassing. As for the ridiculous statement from the club in the local paper to say " that they will have seniors in 2013 " there isnt even enough senior footballers around in Sunbury to field another senior team. All of the other senior teams in Sunbury struggle to field there own reserve teams so it will not work and as far as the 4-6 year window goes to have a senior team in EDFL goes ......impossible and that is a FACT.The locals dont rate the club at all and it's not run very well that's why no players will go there , It only attracts players that cant get a kick at the other 4 clubs in Sunbury and with that you get knowhere combined with the dud culture its in a sad state.

well east sunbury are not off to a good start to season 2012 with only signing a totall of 10 players on their first registration day ....... word is that people are looking elswhere to now as they havent been able to appoint any coaches very un organised and they are struggling at the minute.

Mate i didnt even know there was already 4 clubs in Sunbury, thought there was only 2 !!

How many in Melton? 3?

Rajab and Bakapolous are good players but the mighty $$$ rears its head again. As for the others there comes a time when you have to drop down a grade to keep playing senior footy but it will affect the depth there at Tulla.

 

[ItsAllAboutMe]

Mate i didnt even know there was already 4 clubs in Sunbury, thought there was only 2 !!

How many in Melton? 3?

In Sunbury there is, Sunbury Lions (Ballarat league), Kangaroos (Riddell), Rupertswood (VAFA) and then Diggers Rest (Riddell) on the outskirts of town, and now East Sunbury.

Melton has, Bloods & South (Ballarat) Centrals (Riddell) and Rockbank (Riddell) on the outskirts as well as 2 teams in Bacchus Marsh just up the road.
