read your initial post before parts of it were thankfully deleted. as a neutral footy supporter it is interesting to talk footy in yarra and mul with people from all the clubs. yarra and mul fc boys are positive about their season 2010 and for next year. they aren't hooking into each other or their opposition. the rennie boys are happy with this year and are keen for 2011 to keep improving. they arent bagging out anyone or any club. but all im hearing the last few weeks from tunga people is sniping and bitching. most of it is directed at rennie. their budget, their players, committee. not from all tunga people though as there are some good ones out there. but its really getting boring. its also helping neutral footy people in yarra mul decide who they will be supporting next year. tunga had some good leaders a few years ago out there when they were on the up who seem to have left or stepped back a bit. this would not have happenned under them. good luck next year tunga but please do something about the big mouths in your club.
Who are they Uptheladder?
Meyland is coach but no chance Cowan will be going to the Picola league..
Apparently they are former coach and player Mark Brown and Wayne 'Chooka' Fowles.
Will be interesting to see how they go. What do others think?
from what im hearing dudge will be assistant to tim his been out at dookie, they had 30 or so at training last week. The 3rds had 4 or 5 blokes over 6 foot so they may have to step up. Young Ed Mckenzie got picked in bushys squad so if he stays at dookie he would be in the ruck.
Maybe big greggy will have a run hehe
Ducked out to Central Ave last night to have a look at the Eagles commence their title defence. I'd guess about 25 odd on the track. Pretty normal first up run with both balls and running part of the night. Frappell, Mason and Marchment looked in pretty good knick. One thing I did notice was that the night was taken by young Gert Foley in the absence of their leader from last year. A few murmurings that maybe he is looking to unseat the current master as it is believed last years coach has hit up the club for a bonus upon leading the club to a flag last year! Wash might be able to clear that up as I think he is pretty close to Besty and find out the real story why he wasn't taking training.
I did also see old man spencer labouring around the ground. Maybe a chance to add to his 500 odd VCFL games this year

hey there nutta, yeh the cockroach has been as crook as a penguin in a desert would be so he threw a once in a lifetime opportunity to young gert foley so how did he go?? rumour has it he started talkin bout his old man,s grand final losses?? mmm interesting!! Great to see sir ramnuts out there gracing the central park grass again as he should be in 2011!! Still early doors but the real training to start on jan 11th tuesday and thursday all year round!! How did u go fencesitter did u trundle around mate?? Cant see why karjam cant pull the boots on again and do trigga type roll next year??
I too happened to lob out the "Avenue" was abit taken aback with the Foley nomination for training duties... thought the newly appointed 2's coach may have been asked to take the reigns in the absence of coach Daniel Best "think thats his name" Anyway Fencesitter held his own comfortably paired up with Tatts Palmer in the running!! was a bit concerned with the amount of Amber flowing afterwards, at last check The Medalist was seen going stubby for stubby with the Tongan, not a great mix one would of thought?hey there nutta, yeh the cockroach has been as crook as a penguin in a desert would be so he threw a once in a lifetime opportunity to young gert foley so how did he go?? rumour has it he started talkin bout his old man,s grand final losses?? mmm interesting!!

Spotted the Rennie boys on the track last night at the Yarra High School. Thought it was big call training on a Friday but they would have had 30 - 35 on the track which was impressive (for Rennie and for this time of the year)! Some of their recruits in big Mango, the tassie boy Medwin and Ben James look like being very good additions. Locals walking and driving past yelling out encouragement to the boys made for a good atmosphere. The boys then seemed to go harder on the drink last night and were out in numbers. Yet to win a match in 2011 but the boys seem to be up and about and there is plenty of support around town for them.
How are they getting all of these quility players????
Probably the same way that any team gets quality players. Good recruiters or connections. Rennie's coach would be at the forefront of that. He has plenty of mates in footy. You don't get these blokes for nothing so the hoppers must have a bit of $. They look to be a club on the rise so it is usually easier getting blokes to play if your team is finals bound and having a bit of a crack. They're always pretty welcoming out there too which makes it easier. Have always been strong on the social side of things with a pretty good clubhouse and bar these days. A few Yarra boys following some mates out there probably looking for a bit of a change. Rennie provides a good option I suppose.
Yeh russell will have to bide his time until the cold winter months to take the reins i,d say when its harder to get to trainin? As for foley i think it was right place right time as little gert was attending some plumbing problems at the cockroaches house so the idea came up!! Anyway good to blow the cobwebs out im sure before settling into a few xmas beers
most players are volunteers trying to keep a club going too and like I said I hope that the RUMOURS i heard are false.
