EDFL Premier Discussion 2025

[FootyNuff123]

I saw him at his local running track just last week and he is fit as a fiddle, he will still be one of the comp's premier ruck this year no doubt.

 

[tigertony]

He’s a quality pick up no doubt Turbo, especially as Pacco were deficient in the ruck this year, but he did slow down a bit last season compared to what I’d seen in 2023.

You obviously don’t know who won Pacco’s B&F last year… their ruckman who won most weeks

Hofert? I haven't seen his re-signing announced... has he gone elsewhere?

I’d take Hofert.

He is a superstar Turbo but is also 38-39 years old. The decline could come quick, like it did with Browne, although he went home for $ so bit unknown how much longer he could have gone at this level.
Gamble paying him big dollars in my opinion. We’ll know by round 10 I guess.
On a different matter, big 10,000 posts coming up for you this year.
You need to concentrate nearing the milestone and make it a good one.

Browne had a really good year last year, in a league with good ruckman, he went up against osullivan (4 or 5 league medals at 43 & Pattinson ex richmond) Hargreaves from Wedderburn, putt, hosking the best ruck in Bendigo the year before, so don't think he'll fall over the cliff anyime soon either

Alright enough about Matty Dennis and whatever he does and decides to do, might be time to start a seperate thread about him

Yep but not enough for Pat to purchase a side over there

 

[baggersforflaggers]

So come 1st Feb how many more transfers out/in of EK are people expecting? I heard over a beer that 17 or 19 out of the last rounds starting 22 won’t be there this season. With the twos forfeiting a few games too, it sounds like Sherman will need to a miracle worker to keep them from relegation.

 

[Calmdowngoldy]

Where has Bashen gone. Put up with his glorifying EK and now the disintegration has begun. His silence is deafening.

Heard over a few holiday beers that Pat offered his coaching prowess and sizeable sponsorship to the new pres at Keilor and was politely turned down. He will pop up somewhere else

Surely Deer Park
Apparently he was next in line to take over Marc Bullen when he decided to not wait and go to East Keilor instead

Newport maybe in a smaller type role as his assistant is now coaching there??

 

[super suns]

Keilor rumoured to have signed ex Carlton rookie ruck Alex Mirkov.
