rumours have circled about numurkah's recruitment of former bushranger and shep bear tyson saunders. also on big $$$. can anyone confirm this?
just a quick congratulations to Jarrod Atkinson for being given a chance to train with the Essendon Bombers from Murray FL to AFL in two years is not a bad effort. No promises but might just pip Rex Taylor as Rumbalara's next AFL product.
Dont believe everything you read in the paper NOT TELLIN U......yer he is goin there dont no if he has signed yet or how much $$$$but yer he is goin to numurkah
n another thing bout mel goin to toc. its funny coz i ask bout him goin there n sum1 said yer then 2 days later in there paper poss said that they haven't even spoke to him. n i dont think he will b goin there unless the $$$ r good enough
Dont believe everything you read in the paper NOT TELLIN U......
Tyson has signed at Numerka.
That is because Congupna aren't quite up to Murray League. They do a great job don't get me wrong, it is just that they are trying to pull players from a town that supports 6 major league clubs directly and 30+ minor league clubs. They have gone through cycles over the last 10 years of up and down, not being able to keep a group together long enough to shake off peoples thoughts, like myself, that they are not quite there.
i wouldnt say the road isn't up too the Murray League, the last 2 years made finals and finished 7th the year before that. All clubs have periods of sucess and periods were they struggle. Although a couple have left there is still a nucleous of players there to push to make the 6, you got remember there is still 4 months to round 1.
My arguement is that their are too many major league teams in Shepparton. Very high operating costs in a major league and I just get a bit suspicious that Congupna are finding the laying of a foundation a little tough at the moment. Nucleus seems to be based on guys that sort of waltz in and waltz out in a year or two.
I agree, but it seems to be the story everywhere. We at Rumba face the same sort of dilema. It's not so much the players leaving us, but more attracting other players, different players or different people. There's what, 3 leagues drawing players out of the region? 4 if you include the Picola League. And dispite all the bu##$hit previously in the paper, we don't much money. certainly not enough to offer quality players individual "contracts" as such. And in my opinion to get anywhere in this league you need $$$$$. Other clubs around the area have buisness owners, people with pull, involved in one way or another with thier club and it makes recruiting/keeping players and just generally running a club all that more easier. But not to be defeated we (and congupna) will do the best with what we've got come round 1.
Saints snare Stevens after long courtship By Richard Goodbody
Benalla's premiership odds have been slashed following yesterday's signing of former Kangaroos onballer Michael Stevens.
During the past three years, the Saints have worked feverishly to land the fleet-footed midfielder, but have been unsuccessful up until now.
Adding genuine speed to the Saints' engine room, Stevens will link up with his brother Brendan, who is the captain of the club's senior side.
"It's a great signing," star forward Ricky Symes said.
"We've chased Mick pretty hard for three years now and finally we've got him across the line.
"We probably identified our midfield as one area that needed strengthening and Mick will certainly do that.
"Kasey Robertson is back and he'll be a very good key position player, but Mick gives us some genuine toe in the midfield."
Since being delisted by the Roos at the end of 2005, Stevens, who was originally drafted by Port Adelaide with the fourth selection at the 1998 National Draft, has spent the past two years playing with Murray Football League powerhouse Mulwala.
During his seven-season AFL career, Stevens played 17 games for the Power, including the 2002 preseason premiership, before being traded to the Kangaroos where he played a further 44 matches.
With the ink still drying on the 27-year-old's contract, Benalla will amp up its pre-season preparations on Monday when Tim Symes takes control of his first training session as Saints coach.
"I think Tim will be great for us," Ricky Symes said.
"He'll create a new level of professionalism for the club, but I think Monday's session might be fairly testing.
"We need it, though."
Gee if all the talks accurate, mulwala's gonna be a really different side next season. seems like everyones leaving. any news on recruites or up and coming players?? Hard to see them doing any better with these loses and no new names.
Hank has Percy decided what he wants to do next year yet??

Yeah mate he signed back on about 3 weeks ago, he wanted to sign before he took off to Darwin. Played Sunday for Southern Districts and kicked 4, see big Jonno is running around up there as well.
yeah he's havin a crack. hurt his ankle again though last i heard. with any luck he'll atleast come back a bit trimmer
Yeah, the heat and humidity will do him the world of good.
You can add to those 2 names Jake Cowman, Paul Banch, Chris Kennedy and John Lucas. I got mail that there will be about 15 senior Players leaving.... that is a massive turn over.reported in the border mail today that
-michael stevens has signed with benalla
-ben james has signed with yarrawonga
a couple more big names leaving mulwala

wouldn't you get sick of playing there, 4 prelim finals in 4 years. obviously these players want not just finals success but actuall success of a premiership and maybe they feel they can't get it there.
Does all these exits mean they are not happy with the appointment of coach or just want success somewhere.
I would think the coach may struggle without these players and the discipline issues that have sometimes held the club back will need to be rectified-both Mulwala and echuca United appear to have lost a group of quality players
WHO IS COACHING MUL??
