Boys i wouldn't get too carried away with Cairns form. Barnett kicked 126 last year and Eagle a ton too. A huge gap from that league to GVFL. Matt Walsh has kicked 100's in the last few seasons also, and he certainly isn't a star. Many say the standard is above KDFL and below Murray league. Best to hold judgement for a few rounds. What is it they say about March champions?
Got to say well said to Puta and Euroa Footy Club. I know this has come full circle from a few years ago but if Euroa are to survive in GV footy long term they need to have locals playing and develop youth. If they could get 3-4 experienced players they would be competitive along side the younger kids.
If all clubs had a similar philosophy dollars wouldnt be the lynch pin in securing good quality players. You would have them developing without expectation.

Here here. Barlow will play more than he misses this year and Roberts will also get his chance.
You might find alot more eyes are on younger players in the GV over the next 2 years as additional talent has to come from somewhere for GC17 and GWS.
Also great to be able to show younger blokes that miss the draft / rookie list initially its not all over and you can work and achieve from outside the "normal" system.
I think you will find that Eagle played in the QAFL last year and kicked 80 odd goals from 10-12 games. That form line suggests that he will be a very handy player this year as that league is widely regarded as being a pretty handy standard.

Good line up too. Hall, Brown and Sheeds.
I take your point about March champions, but I reckon you're a bit off the mark by saying there's a 'huge gap' between that comp and the GV.. I also reckon you're being harsh on Matt Walsh - before he went up there he wasn't a star, but if he came back now he'd dominate GV, incredibly athletic and a great kick for goal..
MJ42 made a good point about Eagle and the QAFL.. Really strong league, there would be a bigger gap between that and GV than there is between the cairns league and the GV..

One problem! All the pressure is on Meka to deliver. Every loss, every bad performance form the Melbourne Swans will be scrutinised. What if they make the Grand final undefeated and get rolled? Where do the locals play? Who cares? Its all about Meka and Robbo! You've hit the nail on the head;yze out of the square with robertson and yaman given licenses to do what they want. Thats the whole problem!!!!!! Blokes at the swans doing what THEY want. I hope Perry can deliver a flag otherwise the wolves will be circling .

No way that QAFL is that far ahead of GV, I played both and both are good but GV much tougher. They are about the same I reckon. Does anyone know if nipper harvey is coaching anywhere this year?

I remember him telling me once that he made one of the teams he coached, can't remember which one sorry, train in their jocks after being beaten......Wonder if that will happen this season.......

Agree, Benalla kids played really well when they got used to pace of game, never took a backward step, hard at ball & body.
May get some horrible beatings during the course of the year, but every side that plays them will know they have been in a game.
If can stay injury free will surprise a few.
Well on our performance yesterday boofaaaa,the mighty lions can take it right up to them, we looked super the way we moved the ball yesterday from end to end, and we only got beat by 14 goals in the end to East Burwood.
