Ovens & Murray discussion 2023

["The Roar Is Back"]

How is it that the Wangaratta penalties were not handed out all at once and as a collective approach . From afar it would appear AFL handed down their penalty and now O&M are handed down a penalty with O&M seemingly not consulted initially ??

On a side note… Just heard about myrts new signing that winter Irving. 20 head of cattle he got, looking for places to store them to grow for him as we speak. No pony looking into it, unless Myrt come forward and say we’ve made a mistake here first.

Got any proof or just heard it down at the pub over a beer?

I can say Bailey Griffths at Wodonga is on $2000 a game, doesn’t make it true

Im not sure which of the accounts born today is TF, he has really done a good job hiding his identity!

Love him or hate him, (or realistically tolerate him or hate him)
TF has been pretty spot on with all this. If you have the patience to
sift through all the diarrhea, you'll find a few kernels of truth.

Small community clubs and you've listed the Rovers? The blokes paying two YouTubers to drive up the highway each week? The same club paying VFL players to fly in and out when they have a bye or don't get selected?

The league has had the same couple of clubs dominate for the past decade, this has been brewing for years, are we really surprised at the current turmoil? Something had to give. Also, why would a VFL player fly in when Melbournes a two and a half hour drive, seems nonsensical.

I’m not naming the person involved at Myrt, but they are looking for land to get the cattle on for him.
Who’s Bailey Griffiths?
Is the ovens and Murray following up the below comment about an ex Myrtleford player? Or do we only wait until the club self reports it?

How do people think the reigning premiers (Lavington) will go next year? They have recruited well and Schneider seems to have his lid screwed on the right way.

Hello one of Geoffs new profiles.
Do you think Ryan Hebron was driving down on weekends giants didn't have a VFL Game?

4 years without a premiership winner come September. Crazy.

 

[BigDog12]

Also quick one.
While looking at stats from last season I see rovers had 2 extra player points, anyone know if this is staying the same? Surely they have to drop down to 40. 3rd in 2021 & made the prelim last year?

They were already audited that year, when the cap was 165k

Former Myrtleford player. He came from Southport before that.

 

[TheGreatBambino]

His a college punter in the states now.

It’s more the cash that was handed to him each game outside of said cap.

Pretty low to go after Myrtleford of all clubs, they did what was necessary to keep the pace, they could’ve easily been in Corowa’s position so credit to them. I think the former presidents blood is boiling because the way they operated was somewhat indirectly dictated by the big guys. You need to accept Wangaratta’s new status which will be a hard tag to shake moving forward.

Well and truly accept the breach that was made. Not accepting every other rumour or story that’s been heard is now true because of the breach, that has actually happened.
Anyway, looking forward to Good Friday, which I have no doubt will be a ripping spectacle for all those that turn up to watch it.

Which makes me think he’s or he has an insider at the O&M meetings

How many posts will you have on your first day ?

 

[whats the go]

Omg, I feel sorry for TF laptop or phone today. Will need a deep clean. But as for the decision why not hand down everything at once instead of dragging this all out. Surely the afl and om could work together

The AFL should have nothing to do with anything else apart from they're own comp

 

[Maxy76!]

Here's one for the brains trust...

Has the covid job losses and financial pressures put an emphasis on most middle aged males taking every dollar they can get working there primary job, over playing country football with a rather large risk of getting hurt and not being able to earn said income?

This I think, would be the main cause of sides struggling for numbers. Thoughts?

Seems to be the reasoning behind declining numbers, as has seasons being abandoned and blokes finding motivation hard to get back into it

Will they get legal advice and appeal do you think?

I asked this a week or so ago.
I can see them giving the top 3 a real shake.

 

[Shitofakick]

My point is, what is the league doing to stop clubs rorting the system? Make an example of Wang, sure. Doesn’t change a thing.
They need to pro active about stopping it

That’s confirmation that Albury do indeed run the O&M comp
