100% agree. Anyone who signs at a club should be there for the year to honour that contract. Not crack the sads 5 games in and try and move because you can’t get a gig in the ones.

Maybe Eltham should have enforced that with Jarvis who played in Diamond Creeks win after transferring 2 weeks ago.

You never quite know anyone’s position and what’s happening in there lives at that point in time though. Easy to say from the cheap seats he should stay but in a world where we are beginning to prioritise mental health in young men i think it’s a bit harsh to say the above without knowing the full picture.

Given the fact he already threatened the club that he’d quit if they don’t let him leave what does that tell you?
Sometimes egos aren’t everything in football and you have to suck chips and suck it up if you signed a contract you honour that contract. Good to see Bundoora sticking strong to that.
Having watched some of there reserves football games this year he hasn’t really done much or done anything special anyways so it makes sense to why he wouldn’t be getting a game.

How many players are a club allowed to sign to a contract? My belief was there is a cap on how many you can sign, unsure of the number tbh.
Jarvo left to play with mates and enjoy footy whether it was in the ones or twos, there were no hard feelings at all. Not sure why your bringing him into this

I don’t doubt any of that but why you’d help Diamond Creek in the middle of a season who’s the main threat to Eltham getting back to D1 seems very odd.

Sometimes things are not just black and white. He has been a very good clubman at Eltham..

No cap on contract signing.
Sign 2s & 19s - I know 1 Div 1 club that does it.
It’s what you lodge with salary cap that matters
Do lower lose their northern knights boys this week?
If you don't think one of the main focus points for Epping this week will be rough them up within the rules then you're kidding yourself.... Epping knows what it's like to scrap & fight for survival, doubt the young Bears will know what to expect
Haha you’ve got to be kidding.
Lower have plenty of older heads. Not to mention Epping are far from “intimidating”. Rough them up? Really.
If they know what it’s like to “scrap for survival” they wouldn’t have dropped for D1 to D3 and be gifted a spot back in D2.
Eltham VS Watsonia - After a hot start Watsonia have dropped well off. Eltham will look to bounce back and should do it easy. 44 points
Panton Hill vs

Eltham V Watsonia - Watsonia have dropped well off after a hot start. Panther desperate to bounce back. Eltham 55 points
PH vs TT - PH starting to hit form and expect it to continue 21 points
DC vs St Mary’s - DC on top of the world defeating eltham. Will continue 44 points
SM Vs NP - close one but expect South Morang to continue their winning ways a 23
Lower vs Epping - Match of the day. Relegation on the line. Epping hit the scoreboard and lower far to good at home 28 points.

Looks like a typo mate. Missing South Morang
Round 7 and what a great round of footy we have this week, there are only 2 games between 1st and 8th place and a relegation battle this week as well.
Panton Hill 8th vs Thomastown 5th. The redbacks are one of the form teams winning their last 3 game and if they can win and results go their way they can jump into the top 5 for the first time in season 2023. Duckworth and N Parks are big outs however they do have Keys, Freeman and O and S Parks all in good form. For the Thomo bears, Leonardis leads the coaches award and is getting great support from Natoli, Tang and Capeci. The consistency of the bears is still a worry, however think they might just have enough firepower. Thomastown by 11 points
Northcote Park 3rd vs Sth Morang 4th. A chance for either club to move a game clear in the top 3 and double chance race. The cougars have taken time to regroup back in division 2 while the lions have taken all before them since being promoted from division 3. G Moorcroft wound back the clock last week with 7 majors but it was D’Intinosante with BOG honours but he is an out tonorrow. Again like the game above, Ross of the coin but will go with the home team. Northcote Park by 9 points
Watsonia 6th vs Eltham 1st. The saints after starting the season well have only won 1 of their last 3 games and this week get an Eltham team on the rebound after their first loss last week. Maley is back for the panthers from Bullants VFL and just adds another string in the bow for Coach Bongetti to use. Eltham too classy and will win by 37 points
Diamond Creek 2nd vs St Marys 7th. The Creekers proved last week that the premiership is not a one horse race knocking over premiership favourite Eltham at Eltham. Booth get the maximum 10 coaches votes with Barro in good support. They have a settled group with no changes this week. The Burra went down to Panton Hill with only Antypas in the votes. Chance of an upset if the creekers don’t pay due respect to St Marys especially coming off a great win but Diamond Creek too strong by 27 points
Lower Plenty 9th vs Epping 10th, a round 7 relegation battle and it’s been a big fall for the Lower Bears in 2023. Sacco and Deslandes were in the votes last week but will need the likes of Alexander (9 goals), Porter and Flynn to produce big games. For Epping their form has been a bit better over the last two weeks but still along way off a win. Ranklin is their leading goal scorer with only 4 majors for the year. They will look to Lirosi, Judd and Hollow to help them get over the line. Two teams desperate for a win. At home will go with Lower Plenty by 19 points
Enjoy the footy

Wow Lower.
Thrashed by Epping and look to be hot favourites to be in D3 football next season .
Pressure will come at the club.
