Can confirm that toohey has left tally and signed at billabong crows and he done it in very two faced fashion as he had already signed at tally!! would think mover that he,s used the "they didnt help me with my reco" excuse to get out! Sounds like a good character bloke by all reports,as for arho he will be staying at tally and hasnt missed to many sessions to date!!
I find it hard to understand that Toohey can say that "They (Tally) didnt help with my reco ".
Fact- Tally paid for Tooheys reco in full.
Fact- Tally coach (Dicko) spoke to the doctor that did his reco a couple of years ago and got opp bought forward, Tooher only waited 10 days for opp.
Fact- Tally continued to pay extea cost for him whilst not working.
Tall were not going to clear him due to there out off pocker costs, but new club paid it all to the club in full..
This is all after Toohey shook Dickos hand, sighned and said im in for the year !!!
Tally did a fair bit for that bloke, thats how he repays them....
Not a good caracter bloke after all !!
Fact- Tally Denied his clearance today?? Did they pull a shifty over the billabong crows

I think that your idea's a good one (it would help us at Murchison because it would stem the flow of players to Tatura JFC, although a lot of the Murch boys come back eventually, there are those who don't), but I would like to hear what the KDFL's Junior Development Officer's (most league's have one, I hope the KDFL does) opinions and ideas about this.
I think that an Under 14's competition would be a good thing in the medium to long term, (this might be something that's implemented over a period of 3-4 years, according to club interest), but I think that clubs should try any run more "Little League" type events featuring towns that have Auskick programs during home games.
It would mean having the seniors in the rooms at 1/2 time for longer, but I think having a "Little League" type set-up featuring for example the Auskick from Girgarre playing the Auskick from Stanhope, or the Murchison auskick playing against Rushworth would be a good first step.
Have them in the proper club jumpers (like Little League, where they wear the jumpers of the competing clubs), give them a voucher for a hotdog and a coke after the game, give the parents a voucher for a cup of tea/coffee afterwards.
I know that there are some communities that don't run auskick programs, but it's worth a try and it might work if you involve towns that are close to one another
The Northern League in Melbourne runs a similar program late in the season (although there are a few that do it regularly, like Mernda & Panton Hill), where they allot 2-3 weeks to host an Auskick at 1/2 time, and it works well.
Anything that can give these kids a feel for the place, and if the clubs go the extra effort to make them feel at home, even if you may not have the teams for them to go into as yet, it could help in getting more numbers.

That is exactly where 4ths started. Used to be half time games. Then it moved to be before the 3rds. This gave the kids a decent run of 12 min quarters.
Time is made up by reducing the half time break in the 2nds and 3rds (they don't go into rooms).
Half time games each week would be a great start, club jumpers would be a bonus.

The red card is for trying to hose down money talks at VT
Ha ha who knows, perhaps it was for seeking a practice match. I copped a warning for doing the same on Yarraville Seddon's behalf 2 weeks ago. Even if it isnt for a home game and no chance of making $$$ for ya club it's deemed advertising and not allowed under the rules and regulations of BigFooty.
It worked anyways coz I saw it, put jaxbac onto Broadford FC and they enjoyed a good hit out this afternoon
Looking forward to ya return mate.......

Thats bullshit....
This is a footy site & we're all talking footy 1 way or another even if it is looking 4 a praccy match, atleast then other players/teams can see who ur playing if they are keen 2 come & watch....
Sometimes people over do it & push the boundaries too far!! Take a chill pill BIG FOOTY....
I think it may have been because Jax was stirring up one of the local mods on the GV thread.
Although I agree, using BigFooty to look for last minute practice matches can't be that much of an issue.

Yep, things need to be changed if you can't put it out there that your club is looking for a practice match! Anything that is for the betterment of the game/clubs/league has to be a good thing, and if BigFooty can be an avenue for clubs to help organise a pre-season hit out then their should not be anything from stopping them from doing so.

BODZY#32
Team Captain
Touchy subject.....
We played Broady yesty at a small oval with a huge down hill slope in Wandong and although scores weren't kept I'd roughly say we got up by 10 goals in a 4 x 15-20min quarter match (not sure exactly of that either, but the quarters didn't feel long). Good to get back into it anyway.
How have other clubs gone with praccy matches so far? I heard that Nagambie were going to be playing Dookie, how'd that go?

Pretty sure the goalie to the top end kept score Bodzy coz I was chatting to Jaxbac at half time and he had it 10.4 to about 2.3. Trotts text me last night as obviously he couldn't post it to say it was 72pts in the end.
I came round the goals thinking you'd be last line in the sqaure to get some players pointed out but you seemed a bit further up the ground yesty
Agree totally with hank1, seems we've become a bit precious, especially when my post last night got deleted for even mentioning all this
I understand the rules (now) but surely discussing practice games is more footy orientated that some crap that gets posted.

I'm not aware of any of your posts discussing this being deleted and whilst it remains an objective discussion I don't think there should be any issue.
Discussing practice matches such as what has happend within a practice match or where a side maybe playing is not outside BF rules , asking for practice matches, players , coaches etc upon general boards is , and has been enforced upon all Vic regionals for the past few years.
I've been on bigfooty for a while now and didn't even know you could get a red card..
Anyway, jaxbac has done it again, Marcus dean to VT. Another quality recruit in the athletic ruck man. Regardless of how much they're spending it's still a good effort to lure these type of players, I'd say horsborough, gleeson, saddington, lee, whelan, Williams, sage, dean (is mick gay going there, too??) would fit into any GV side at the moment, so they've got some artillery.
Hope they don't get too many more, they're still only just beatable at present..

Mick Gay playing at Heidelberg. You could leave us a couple of players. Seeing thats now four players from the unbeaten side of a few years ago.
Still say J Williams the pick of the bunch

Talking with jacbax Sunday and they never spoke to or about Mick Gay, maybe someone just throwing it out to perhaps get hime offered a few more $$$.
Williams will be a gun thats for sure, as will Lee, Whelan, Dean, Lamaro if his body stay's sound, Saddington, Gleeson etc etc. There was a guy who wore #21 and looked extremely similar to Lee who could be as good as any of them ...... dunno who he was??? I reckon Hayden and the fwd's would love running up at him both on the right and left foot

Interesting to see VT are playing Panton Hill this saturday. A Northern League Division 3 team.
The other club that has taken a lot of H'berg players this season. Think its currently 5-6 players. Including Zac Williams. Be fun to wacth the Williams Sisters on opposing teams.
You'd imagine VT with their signings to have a fairly easy day of it.
