Re: MCDFL - Part 3

I believe that Dunolly are after a new coach as Woodward got sacked. I have no details as to why this is, but it's not a good start to the new year for the club. Can anyone shed light on the details?? Who would take over? Sanders or Stewart again?

I saw him new years day and he was still appointed then, although wasnt overly confident with how things were progressing at the club during pre-season. Big blow for Dunolly at this stage of the year.

Saw fisher & a fair few Lexton boys running around the lake in B'rat last night so they're obviously keen to get the season underway. They have a lot to live up to with all the hype everyone's creating. ;)

The only thing that would drive Tony to make the move is to be part of a flag.. Pride is a bigger motivator than money and I'd imagine he would still have a big desire to coach or play in a flag merely to prove a point to all the doubting thomas'.

My guess is if he coaches it'll be a sign that the eagles will be near the mark in 2011.

Much damage mate? Im out of the country at the moment so am a bit out of the loop, are the insurance companies coming to the party? I heard not all are.

Not too bad, We had a great roll up of people who cleaned up the mess in about 4 hours. All of the doors are swelled up and split and the cupboards are all knackered. Carpet in one room had to be ripped up but apart from that, it was not too bad. It didn;t get high enough to do any damage to photos, honour boards, etc.

Most of the damage was to the park surrounds.

Outer fence demolished, 150 metres of footy oval fence demolished and the scoreboard is a wreck. Tennis court fence along the back was also stuffed.

A bit of damage to the netball court also.

Don't think the insurance will cover it?

Avoca footy website has some photos which will give you some idea of the damage. www.avocafc.vcfl.com.au

We are pretty lucky really when you compare the damage to what has happened to Newbridge who have lost their clubrooms completely.

Carisbrook rooms also got inundated, but not sure of the damage left behind. Heard Natte rooms may have took some water also, but that hasn't been confirmed???

Had a look at the rooms at Brook Yesterday, Water was midway up the bar area, and the carpet in the change rooms and bar has had to be torn up unfortunately, not sure exactly how much damage was caused, time will tell ! Could be worse, was speaking to Clunes President, they have lost all premiership photos, fridges and Training footy's, as well as there new Netball Courts being damaged ! puts a team behind the 8 ball going into season 2011 !! Thank god nobody was hurt though !
 
Re: MCDFL - Part 3

Firstly sorry to hear about the floods that have ruined your footy rooms and grounds guys. Now i am a long time follower of the LPFL and was wondering who you people think will be right up there this year in the MCDFL? After watching the LPFL from day dot i cant go past a Lexton Navarre grand final. I think this is a very realistic chance any thoughts?

I only seen a few LPFL games, And to be quite honest i thought the standard of football was extremely similar to the MCDFL (I never saw Skipton play however). There entering a new league, new Territory and things just wont happen ! I would be extremely suprised if both play off in a grand final, not saying its impossible, but the likes of Brook,Rovers,Newstead,Maldon and the rest wont be pushovers... thats for sure !!

For Discussion....
Grand Finalists - Brook Vs Navarre - Rovers there abouts also
League B&F- J Mac if he comes
Big Improvers - Newstead
Best of the Newcomers -Navarre
Wooden Spoon-Royal Park
Biggest Slider- Avoca
Top 6- Brook,Navarre,Maldon,Newstead,Lexton,Rovers, - top 8 hard to pick !!

If rovers are to be there abouts also surely they would have to pick up a few, any word if they have Brookers?
