I say it even year. Local footy pre season should not be allowed prior to Christmas

We basically didn’t start until first week of February now young fella starts this week playing in same league as I did

I had that exact same conversation yesterday mate. My first pre season started in February and it was long enough

Seems to be a lot of optimism on the Bendigo page about obtaining Echuca, Kyabram and Moama. Personally I can't see it ever happening but happy to be proved wrong.

Jack Lefroy is a good signing for Tatura

Hopefully Tatura can start the climb back up the ladder, I'm not so bullish on United and Benalla. In fact Benalla are a real worry for the GV. Seems to me there are only 4 teams capable of winning the flag next year; Echuca, Shepparton, Kyabram and Rochy. It appears that Euroa is falling apart and Mooroopna need to steady the ship.

United will have a pretty good midfield. They will win more games this year.

Really worried about footy in Benalla though. Favourite son is coaching them and playing he's guts out for them at 41. You'd think Benalla kids would be wanting to play there

Hey ringo any chance you could burrow Anakies chequebook to help you out

 

[Trent the flight Steward]

I see tat are looking for an assistant coach and are using social media to find one. Wasn't that rhe point of getting the footy gm appointed mid year to have had this in the bag by now. He should have had a short-list of 5 by august and got one by now

I keep saying that some district clubs are ignoring the restraints of a salary cap.

I think u will find Ash Quinn was the assistant coach up until last week, but has stepped down, due to his wife now playing netball at Ky!

I think its a bit of the same issue as Tat. Some kids head to Galen College in Wang and are lured to play that way?

 

[ringo1]

I also should of added that Big Harry Boyd looks likely to be picked up by an AFL club.

 

[johnnymossop]

Rinaldi to North Albury. Good player

Worrying trend losing 2 league medalist to the O&M.

Unfortunately there is a cluster of clubs around benalla, you've got benalla saints, all blacks, VT and goorambat. If you look, none of them are particularly strong atm.
There was a proposed merger with saints and allblacks, with a rebrand to benalla united. Which was knocked back.
There will be 1 or 2 clubs in the region fall in their sword, to many clubs not enough players.

Benalla as a town needs a strong club, in a major league, else footy will die out there.
I allude to a previous post of mine, I think benalla suffers from the aforementioned commitment to play in a major league. Kids, and seasoned players just don't want to give up that much time.

Maybe a merger, and move to the Murray league would best suit benalla.

Benalla was highly regarded for its junior structure not so long ago .
Ole mate shut down the junior comp and surprise surprise both wangs sides have won premierships in The last couple of years . Benalla we’re screwed over as we’re the wang magpies and you can be assured rovers won’t face the same scrutiny .

Benalla once had a flourishing junior system, developing tac players, mellington x2 Webster, marchbank, rockliff, martyn, downie.
That right there should be a strong nucleus for a gv side. But for reasons, all bar 1 of them doesn't play there.

The benalla junior league once had 5 sides in its top under 17 age bracket,
That's roughly 100 kids, if you had 1/4 of them so 25, go on to play open age footy that builds a club and keeps it going.
1/4 of the current is roughly 8,
Unsustainable honestly.

As much as a merger may divide the town, it surely is the only way to Keep then afloat.

Start the junior comp back up and tell ole mate to get rooted
The GV board who was more interested in jumping in the cot with the AfL at the time of the Benalla junior comp destruction , should hang their head in shame .
Benalla losing their junior comp and the rest of the state having to endure a proven and known flawed point system all for one purpose . Given that purpose has now been achieved , hopefully both are quickly reverted .

Couldn’t happen to a nicer young man. I hope he gets an opportunity.

 

[Coach_Beard]

He will play nearly every game apparently.
Words got out around euroa that he used getting a coaching promotion as a way out and that he left to not ruin his coaching name as not many of the playing group like him.. which lead to a lot leaving.
he’s definitely coaching at north AFLW but only as a line coach.

smart brand protection perhaps. if the above is true that is and the surname other than coaching background checks have helped get the new role.
