AFLW 2024 - Round 4 - Chat, game threads, injury lists, team lineups and more.
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.
Straight from the chalkboard at the Herald Sun offices, Player expenditures for Violet Town and Nagambie in 2012.

Nagambie $85,000

Anyone else sick of this violet town thread and who they have picked up yawn
Not really, but happy for you to give us something insightful to talk about..
You're happy to have a crack at blokes but don't provide any alternate topics to chat about.
Huge step down in level of footy for the gun VT recruits. Couldn't they get the same coin down town? Most are still in there prime you would think with more to offer the major leagues. Sorry Marco ;-)
Awesome made up figures.. Though I guess VT would likely be nearing the $100k mark, which a few major league clubs would be happy with. Will be interested to see if they can sustain that kind of spending or whether they've just launched into this year.
Like I've said, not going to ridicule them for 'spending up big' because if Rushy could raise that much I'm sure we'd do the same, I imagine jaxbac would be busting for a response, how long does this red card system last for..?
Is there any word out of lanky, were the losses that were stated a couple of weeks ago (pell, Casey, brunt, etc) on the mark and have they recruited many other than Barnett..? Would be a good effort by them to push VT this year given you could justifiably argue they'd be spending half as much.

TMAN,story in the free press is that brunty is going to be the runner for the interleague game, doesnt mean much but nearly assume his retired, got a massive concussion last year and hasnt quite recovered.
Rumor i heard sunday night was hoota to gig. Doubt that very much as he is very loyal. harro going eastbound to the horizontal hoop variety!!
Ok lets switch it up! How many recruits has patten pulled in at girgaree and are we expecting them to figure up near the finals? Also i hear the tally boys are also purring along nicely with a big recruit from tasmania on the radar! can anyone confirm? What about stanhope and who they have picked up and lost, they are a serial finalist but is this the year when they miss out? Im also thinking that merrigigum will improve dramictally and be around that top 6 with barnett and stammers and a few more tat 2.s players! My theory is the top 3 will be vt, lancy and murch to be pretty dominant and then rushy and naggaz to round that out and to be honest there will be some cracking games between the sides from 5th to 10th i think which hasnt been like that for a while! Improved leauge this year!!! Hows that T. pez
6.5/10 big gun..
Have heard foley and Norman have left Stanhope, as well, which may test their depth, and that really tall recruit they shelled out massive $ for last year won't be back, either. Lochy Armstrong has signed on at Rushy and has been super impressive thus far, looks fit, skillful and hard at it, so looking forward to him making an impact. How do you rate him hank? As well as him, we've picked up 3 premiership players from Deni (do we rate Murray league on this thread...?) and a premiership forward from tat 2's (Jake Lloyd).
You're right, though, Murch probably haven't got as much love as they deserve, most other years they'd be considering a GF birth (and they may still if things pan out for them), but given the quality of the top teams this year that seems a long stretch at this stage.
As much as a lot of big footy readers are over hearing about VT's spending spree, it's generated a lot of interest and has helped really improve the excitement, strength and respect of the league. I think it's slight vindication that money in country footy can actually have a POSITIVE effect, which must cause ire to the likes of John carrot.. What are others thoughts?
Norman to Macorna, Foley to Quambatook.
Only seen Lachy the last 6 or 7 games in 2010, obviously went to Tat and didnt break into the ones (think he played 1 senior game), he is fit, quick, skills let him down at times in those games, and working back the other way and being accountable was his downfall back in 2010, would get a lot of possessions but so would his man. In saying that will be very handy and would assume he would have worked on those deficiencies under SJ at Tat.
Some good news for the kdfl, with 98.5fm committing to broadcasting the match of the round every week this year.
With so many strong teams this year, I think it will be a coup for the competition and provide more topics to discuss, which should please Marco polo at least..
Yes Jobby my friend, Pearcey is also on the way to Macorna, good $$ up there I believe, and not having to train also fits in well!!
What was the article?Certainly does t.pez and i think you will find 98.5fm will be doing murray leauge games to this year! Have heard from the horses mouth that the 98.5 team is very unhappy with the gvl when they call games all year then come grand final day and finals its handed over to 95.3 Think thats the reason why they will call kdl and murray league games!! P.s Very disturbing article page 3 of shepp news today
What was the article?
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
Something that is not to be talked about on here, not too many that don't know about it so I'm sure if you really need to know what its all about you will find out from another avenue other than this thread. Thanks.
