Millewa Football League 2006 - end of 2008

[deposit]

Re: Millewa Football League

I just read that Jayson Butcher and Simon Kelly will be joint interleague coaches for 2007.

A couple of questions..... What size squad is chosen initially......what have been the scores for the last 2 games........does it get much support from the players........who hosts it this year?

From Memory I think the home team has won the games in the past two years as the team that travels treats it like an end of season trip.

Many players would rather have the week off, some of the younger ones are usually keen. A lot of the time blokes who are not good enough to get a game on merit will get one by default (as the better/older players would rather rest their body).


Game should be at broken hill this year, so would be a good weekend for you if you don't mind a footy trip mid season. MFL will get a flogging

Yeah young thommo played at merbein in the juniors and filled in for the twos afterwards. Is getting better every year as his body fills out. Speaking to a few of the guys out that way Werrimul is shaping up well this year. Should have the desire and talent to really push any side this year.

From contacts at Irymple.... a wealth of young guys and more arriving each week. However I reckon his experience would of come in very handy.
The swallows could finish the season with a very good ressies side.

Wells was it last year that he played for Merbein or a while ago? If so what's he been up to in between and what position does he play?

I was actually not here last year so it could have been the year before. He used to play up forward and in a side that only kicked 15 or so for the year he would have had 10 or 12. Not sure if he played last year or not, his younger brother is still there in the under 18s

no disrepect to the young fella heading out to werrimull this year, but younger brother adam is going to be a pretty damn good footballer i would think, going on what i saw of him four years back as a little tacker.

Re: Millewa Football League

The interleague team was chosen by the coaches of all Millewa Clubs last Monday night & if all the players chosen train & put their hand up to play, we will have a pretty good side & give ourselves a good chance of beating Broken Hill. Last year we lost by about 10 points with a well understrength side & the year before we were well beaten by approx 10 goals up there at Broken Hill, without a lot of the better players in the league.

Looks like Bambill will have a few in the team, which is good to see them supporting interleague in the Millewa. After seeing them up close on the weekend they will be hard to beat this year.

Don't recon young Adam will play a lot of Footy! Recon he'll follow the cricket path Disco! Is an awesome cricketer.

He will certainly follow the cricket pathway system & would not be surprised if he ends up a premier league club (Melbourne) in a couple of seasons. I have played the last couple of seasons with him & he is a top young kid who will go far with his cricket if he applies himself as he has.

i've heard that, geebruz. i have heard that he's already been invited to play premier league when he's ready to come down to melbourne. apparently a terrific wicketkeeper.

good luck to him - really nice kid, always smiling, willing to help out, run the boundary and stuff.

Re: Millewa Football League

I heard around the traps that Ganey only told cardy a couple of weeks ago that his role as coach wasn't a playing one. Apparantly stunned a few guys considering he'd be on some decent money? Anybody else hear this?

I was lurking at the game on the weekend and over heard Ganey wishing he could get out there.
Sounds to me like he is injured at the momment.
So what you say is bullshit.

About the interleague team, hopefully they have a different captain this year.
When Kelly was captain, alot of players wouldnt play because of that reason aparantly.

The interleague is a joke, must of the better players would rather have a rest or go fishing.

The ones that do play treat it like a piss up, more so when it is a trip to Broken Hill, they are the same when they come down here.

It is a good concept however alot of the better players who have been around a while are not interested.

Will probably kick double figures if they get enough of the ball down there forward line.

Re: Millewa Football League

There has not been too much said on this thread about Benny Sobkowbiak from Gol Gol and the injuries he has. Would some one care to elaborate on how it happened and how Ben is going at the moment. Word is he is not too flash.

I must say I am surprised that there has been nothing mentioned on here about it.

A Cardross player went back with the flight of the ball and collided with Benny. It's an odd one, usually the guy going with the flight of the ball is injured not the guy standing his ground...... i actually thought a free kick was warranted to the Cardy player!
A real shame that he has been so seriously injured as it is sounds alot more serious than football terms.
