EDFL Premier Division

[Bagman99]

OK so if they raid the VFL Clubs, the VFL Clubs they raid will need top up players and where do you think they'll get them from?

All VFL clubs have players training with them who do not have contracts as yet. Those guys just act as top ups in VFL praccies.

 

[1061]

The VFL season does not start until April 18. NAB cup finishes about 3-4 weeks before this? VFL teams could cap # of players they offer to 4 or so. Those VFL clubs then play top up players in their praccies who would otherwise play a praccie at local level. It's not hard. There is NO way local players play NAB cup.

Because the possible bans will only affect the NAB Cup wont they.

Ok....if that is where you are going, then i have no idea. And agree with your line of questioning. I was focused solely on NAB cup. Though....i believe only 17 current players would face suspension. Not 25 sitting out NAB cup. It does seem there is no real plan B for the season proper!

Gotta admit all parties do seem to be making it up as they go along.

Sorry captain serious l understand no local league player would be chosen but l was trying to have a bit of fun & see if fellow BF would be able to name a few past character's / champions example
Pevrill to replace Hocking both have been hit by the ugly stick
Mocca AH will only play one game then get 10 weeks by the MRP for his sharp elbows
L Woods Abers replace Fletcher because the both played until there 40

Sam Stouser Can replace Brett Stanton
Jesse Franco MV replace S Dank

Another sneaky quality signing by Keilor. Jesse Wallin will be a quality player for them from Bendigo Gold. Fast rebounding defender. Just flying under the radar.

Has signed for Collingwood's VFL side. Won't be getting many games for them however.

Seem to be going about it the right way, signing some quality less high profile players and probably avoiding bidding wars that would price them out of reach.

It's called doing your due diligence 'ItsAllAboutMe' whilst also taking in to account character before ability when making required additions to your current playing list.

Greenvale have signed Isaac Muller, a Ruckman from North Albury & the Murray Bushrangers.

Here's some facts....

"You'll have even less in this year's Grand Final side" (assuming you mean 2015) - not even on our radar, our focus is on post-Christmas training, practice matches and round 1 against our arch rival (Greenvale).

The Abers juniors who've trained the house down pre Christmas - Moylan, Toy, Cattapan, Hickmott, Kefford, Daniher, Mighell, McLean, Mangan, Thompson, Barrett, Moore and Fazzolari - all in the mix for senior selection.

Plus there's 12 of our kids from the last three U18's teams training at VFL level - those who don't make a list are naturally in the mix. This has been glossed over but it's something we're extremely proud of and fully support each of them trying to play footy at the highest level possible.
Plus our very talented graduating U18's from 2014 - who haven't taken up offers from rival clubs despite their aggressive efforts and have committed to our program for 2015..

You say 7 to 8 recruits - we have it down as 5 - McLean, Austin, Blackwell, Vassal & Laurie. Kefford not a recruit - returns (actually played a game this year) and same for Phillips (previously injured).

Connections delivered all these recruits i.e. Blackwell mates with Laurie. Blackwell, Brock and Aussie all mates - Vassal close friends with our skipper Cubby.

Also - rather be in the position we're in and still in Premier division compared to the former arch rival who spent upwards of $250K and got relegated for it.

Hey there 'puffpuffgivemo' you seem to be in the know on what is actually happening within the Aberfeldie FC! So I thought I would just check on some of your previously stated facts as 'Carl on the Corner' seems to be stating otherwise!

You mentioned CLUB skipper Cubby in a previous post, 'Carl' who rarely misses on dropping in on most training sessions mentioned he actually hasn't seen Cubby on the training track for some time now!
Will Cubby be CLUB skipper again in season 2015?
Will Cubby actually play for Aberfeldie FC in 2015?

You also mentioned Brock McLean, amongst many others as one of the Abers juniors who have trained the house down in the pre Christmas sessions! Yet 'Carl' also mentioned that he actually hasn't even seen Brock at any of the training sessions that 'Carl' has dropped in on both prior to and post Christmas.

I think "Cubby:" could be playing in Darwin

 

[B.O.G]

Any Under 18 teams out there looking for a practice match on the 28th March v Woodend-Heskett (RDFL) our opponent for that day doesn't have u18s, was just seeing if any team would like to play a game, happy to travel or you can play at our ground.

Please Private Message me if you are interested.

Cheers

This is getting a bit old and worn out.
Baiting Puff and Abers.
Alternatively, we should start a new threat titled "Abers" for such comments.

Can we all get on with discussing the EDFL now????

Who?

 

[Turbos mail]

Michael Simioni has resigned on with The Northern Saints.

How are they looking overall Kaboose, as lost a lot of forward options in Stocco & Ferraro (combined 100+ goals if I'm correct). Really hope they can be competitive as premier division should be..

PS: it might be those boys went to Hillside rather than a premier club as didn't want to play against the NS. Not that they are afraid just out of respect for their former club maybe.. I'm sure both had better offers at premier clubs, as if Strathmore were chasing Stocco they would have offered more money than Hillside..
Hope they go well at shark park and give thd faithful something to cheer about..

 

[Kaboose]

Who?

You will find out soon enough!

Doubtful, Rocky is a G'vale boy and had no qualms playing against them.
My understanding is that they have mates down at Hillside.
