Well done reggieray, not the first time that you have beaten them? May be a different story come finals time mate, but what does that matter? What is the problem with farmers anyway, and i can tell you that not many of them have money at present.whta's happening over in thurgoona??? fancy beating the mountain men !!!! it just show's that money and farmers can be beaten!!!
Dont know about the farmers reggieray but get on the Dekka Train this year cause there's not a backman who can stop the Dekka Train not even Nic (I should be playing for Thurgoona) Conway could stop him. I think the 'train is the clear favorite to win the Barton Medal and the Doggies will be there come september
So your claiming to know what Thurgoona are paying i think not. I can say confidently Thurgoona would have one of the lowest if not the lowest player budget in the league. And for your imformation Dek actually came to Thurgoona of his own devices he wasn't chased at all. He has played his junior football there as well as having a long standing friendship with the coach that goes back to when they were kids. So be careful where you go with this as what you may think is the case is definately not. It is a nothing argument anyway.I think if he doesnt win the medal he should be near shot (not many AFL standard players in their prime run around in the TDFL) it all depends where he gets his head at.
Reggieray, as for the dogs beating money and farmers, you look at the pickups for Thurgoona this year, it shows that they are not short of a few quid. I don't have a problem with teams going out and paying for a few players, but don't try to claim that the other side pays players and you don't, especially when the levels of cash being splashed are the same.
what i am saying is it's good for footy to see thurgoona up there and showing the mountain men that it take's more then money to win games.And as for the dekka train he should be carving up sides.It's also good to see great players returning to there roots.If the farmers ain't paying for mitta who is????
Hence the reason i said it was a nothing argument all it is is speculation i have no idea what money any clubs are throwing around. And to be honest i don't care. All i know and care and worry about is my own and thats why i will defend it as anyone would.Look don't get me wrong, its great to see the Dogs beat Mitta up there, but just enjoy the win and don't try to gloat that you did it against all these problems. Everyone knows Mitta at Mitta is the hardest trip in the league and everyone knows that the David and Goliath game is Mitta v Dogs, so enjoy the win, but keep a lid on it a little, Id like to see Thurgoona make a run in the finals and I don't want them to have blown their wad too early.
NOP, actually Ive had a few mates go and play for Thurgoona this year and so I know there is some money being slashed around, not bucketloads, but some. Also, you having a go at me saying I don't know what Im talking about, how are you so sure that Mitta throw the cash around, do you have inside knowledge as well?

AD, thats good to hear the fact that I know Jack Shit, I also know Jacquline Shit and their kids Joe and Ali Shit, nice family.
Every club in the league spends money whether they be on top or on the bottom, there was never any mention about how much Chiltern or Wodonga Saints were paying their recruits when they were making runs at flags. Why should Thurgoona be targeted when in fact Mitta would be more likely to be spending more money on their 'high profile' recruits than the doggies. I'm not a Thurgoona fan but from what i've heard they are a very well run club these days and they are not spending any more money than the lower to middle rung clubs. Go Doggies in '07

There is nothing i can't stand more then players who like to skite about money they are supposively getting paid. It just sh*ts me because i know the majority of the time it is a load of crap. I have no respect for people like that. I prefer to go and watch guys who are loyal to there club so much so that they stick through the hard times as well as the good. That is character. Blokes who shop themselves around to try and get the most they can for themselves wouldn't be welcome into my club because i know that when the going gets tough they would be the first to bail. Give me a less talented clubman over a talented football tart any day.
Well said RHG and RS there is still a few getting around our club that would be described as nothing short of fantastic clubman for surviving what the've been through. Hopefully they can have some sort of success before there careers are finished. God knows they deserve it.There is nothing i can't stand more then players who like to skite about money they are supposively getting paid.
