Re: Murray Football League

speaking of drama's , how about seymor's drama's "keeping your "grubby mits of there stock .how about you steal some nathalia players that would help , until someone who has the backing a club with poker machines and then they win a few flags and then another club will pop up and ruin a few lives and win a flag and make a couple of old blokes happy . I don't know where country footy is heading , do you doona ?

Who have you been talking to Agg ? and what are you doing posting after midnight you clown . surely your hands are full wiping down tables and washing glass's . Are you still having a kick mate ? or is it just nude wrestles on the beach for you up in tropical far north queensland .

Re: Murray Football League

There is a bloke that played half a season with finley a couple of years ago who went to a geelong league last year, Brendan Paull was his name. He fits that age group. Is a big solid bloke, but doesn't play like he should. There is also a couple of young kids that are going to uni in geelong who are 19-20. Both are tall ruck types. Dane Maxwell and Will Robertson. Both go well, and both will play for finley in uni holidays. Hope this helps.

This is the first bit of talk about Finley in a while how are they shaping up for the season? also see rumba has Allan Murray waiting to be cleared to them, this would a massive bonus for them.

Re: Murray Football League

Just a wind up mate , was wondering if you ever broke from your diplomatic stance . it seems your an oak . yeah elmore would be bang up for it , i reckon . or even my former club in the murray league . but on a serious note doona , everyone I've spoken to is struggling to fill sides , drought related maybe , or is country footy in big trouble?

For what it's worth I reckon a lot of the geographical side of country footy needs an overhaul in the not too distant future. Growing costs of living placing greater importance on work (unless u pull a good quid from footy), fuel etc will only make it tougher in the future IMO.

I live in Kilmore and are obviously currently coaching Broadford - for example our club has I think 16-17 clubs within an hours drive yet we play just one (Heathcote).

Re: Murray Football League

No real surprise to see the Rumba-Congupna scoreline given the ins and outs of both clubs over the summer.

Biggest isue for me to come out of the day was that Joey Day didn't play in the magoo's....

Morgs/Boora - please don't tell me Joey's finally hung up the boots???

nah joey hasn't hung up the boots yet. he is trekking around south america on a crusade with his church group and back at the end of april from memory, but with the way damo played on the weekend, joey may struggle to get a game .....

i think the biggest killer of country football is money, so many clubs have folded due to the increase in costs both on and off the field

Re: Murray Football League

Congupna had 5 or 6 blokes from last years 3rds playing as well as a current 3rds player and they will take time to get used to seniors

It's been Joe's last year for the last 4 seasons, so I can't see why this year would be any different.

Will be back from South America in a few weeks and once again will make the tri-weekly trek from Echuca to play. Along with the other Echuca boys.

Officially on board, but for how long i'm not too sure about. Maybe one more, maybe two more, maybe the rest of the season or maybe we'll see if he comes across next year.

Which ever it is I've been asured by his brother that's it not the last time we'll see Allan Murray in a Rumba uniform.

Re: Murray Football League

That headline could still be on the cards, give him three weeks I'm told. Alice Spings does get a bit warm this time of year.
