I happen to trust my source
Seems you are in & around old eltham from your posts
Can you shed some light on why one of the divisions best forwards is playing reserves football?

Why don’t you ask your trusted source? Played at the turtles for a very long time but now just a spectator. Can’t speak on the Williamson situation but I know for a fact the coaching staff are very happy with Caff

Arthur you would probably be the one that knows most about Williamsons situation let’s be honest here.
It does take a rocket scientist to look into the turtles losing streak and Williamson lack of performance having a correlation. Upto the HW loss Williamson had kicked 21 in 6 games. He then kicked:
HW - 1
OP - 0
Kilmore - 1
FS - 2
Kinglake - 1
5 goals, 5 games, 5 losses. Huge change up and from R12 onwards he was never seen in the seniors again. Even though Williamson can’t play next week for the rezzies at least Gill is back.

Was told that Macaffer wouldn’t be at the club this year if it wasn’t for Williamson?
So you’re close enough to the coaches to know how they feel about a player but not close enough to know why Williamson is playing reserves?
Interesting take, I guess I’ll take your word for it

Champ or Chump does otten taking the reigns at Pies VFL mean he might not play next year?

As stated played at the club for a long time so yes I am close to a lot of the coaches. Not around as much now and I don’t make it my business to know everything that goes on at the club. So no I don’t know the full Williamson story and if I did I wouldn’t be plastering it all over Bigfooty. I know that they speak very highly of Caff thoughWas told that Macaffer wouldn’t be at the club this year if it wasn’t for Williamson?

Not sure as yet CD. Andy advised us what was happening a while back but it's too early to know what that looks like for us next year. Would love to have him for another 7 games or so like this year, but bloody wrapt for him to get the gig as a cracking fella and will make a great coach - IMO.
Hopefully he has about 7 players that need a club to play at if not selected in the VFL

Unrelated but how has your women’s side found the NFNL? Obviously in the grand final is great but compared on the VAFA how have they found the comp?Not sure as yet CD.

Might be time for turtles to move past washed up Div 2 players and Eltham rejects and try to recruit youth going forward will never get out of Div 3 or be a serious threat when they recruit super rules players and play on a swamp every 2nd week.

absolutely, i see this as a huge stumbling block for the Turtles, no Juniors and have really struggled to attract young players to the club.
The ground is a massive issue for them i think.
Ok so I'm going with Stars by 2 goals
& Mernda by 3 goals.
Good luck getting a parking spot

Did you have a time stamp?
Leaves the ground, looks to be high. Unfortunately could be the norm now. Feel for the bloke. Not worth missing a GF over IMO.
Surely they couldnt go off vision?

I needed a second look.
Bump as the guy kicked it back from whence it came.
About 9 seconds in.
