Any news on recent incoming or exiting players in Premier B?
Goddard a huge in if he plays majority of games. Good for the VAFA!

My rough read:
Beaumaris - Seems to have been plenty that have left and lot's of rumours about unhappy people. But they always have good juniors feeding in.
Caulfield - Goddard is big, but they also have some VFL listed players come over (Tate Short, Ask Krakauer, Gus Styles etc). Signs are strong.
Fitzroy - Not sure, no one big, but they were pretty handy last year.
Monash - Have picked up Mitch King and Ben Hart (ex OC Captain) plus some handy country players (will be really improved).
Old Geelong - Also not sure, but no one jumps out.
Old Haileybury - Have some VFL listed talent, but not sure they'll see them much.
Old Scotch - Have picked up Tom Downie and a few others, on top of what was a good list anyway.
Parkdale - Harley Balic and the experienced Ben Phibbs, makes this look a good off season.
St Bedes / Mentone - Billy Hartung & Nathan Wright are pretty handy pick ups.
Uni Blacks - Also not sure, but always pick up handy players.

We won’t see Nathan Wright I don’t think, he’s going to be playing full time at Sandy.

All they need now is for Juddy to commit and they will almost be back to their playing strength of the early to mid '70's!!!!!
Anyone know why 23 Uni Blacks players have put in transfer requests to Brunswick FC? Looks strange.

Very strange. Bit early to be stacking the 2s I'd have thought.
With 3 games being really one sided, we may be in for another lopsided year. Old Scotch result the most impressive of the lot.

Could do with some more tipsters!
There were quite a few last year. Did they all go with St Bernards and OC?
There were some lopsided results again. There could well be a top five bottom five split Blacks Scotch Caulfield StB and Parkdale. Very early days however. Great effort by the Oggers though I fear Beaumaris are not the side they were. I am also surprised at the margin in the Monash Blacks game. Whilst I expected Blacks to be strong, Monash have recruited very well and also have good returnees. The scoring shots were a lot closer than the margin so maybe Monash have some improvement in them and the score is not relective
Time will tell
I would have got 3 missing on Beauy and Parky

Well if you do next week you'll get a 3 for this week anyway, being the lowest score.

Anyone with access to the stats tell me how many Hartung had? It looked like there was three of him our there.
I will get into the tipping.
Was at the Monash game, Blacks kicked 11.0 before they kicked a behind makes it difficult to keep up. That said, their run was super impressive all day, hitting blokes running towards goal in space - so all their shots were taken from good positions. Monash will be ok. Looking forward to a round 1 some time where we don’t play a ripping team rd 1 in B grade (Beauy, Scotch, Bernard’s, Blacks)!! Always start slow, last year we stayed slow.

Hartung was the difference between to the two teams. Ran all day, kicked out, ran to his kick outs, and would have had 40 touches. Great Pick-up. Vultures ran out of gas in the end and lacked forwards, Bedes looked more balanced and a fitter, but a good game to open the season at the nest.

Who were the major disappointments from the weekend? Is Fitzroy in trouble or are Old Scotch really that good?
IMO Caulfield will smash a lot of teams this year, they look a step above from the pack. Monash you'd think will bounce back against Beaumaris and Parkdale will get better too.
Top 4: Caulfield, Old Scotch, Blacks, ??

Early tips this week:
St Bedes Mentone vs Caulfield - Will be an interesting bout this one, as we work out where everyone sits. The Tigers play Brindisi St beautifully, put I'll stick fat with the Fields.
Fitzroy vs University Blacks - The Lions will be better at home, but not good enough. Blacks have the highest player points total for a reason.
Old Geelong vs Old Scotch - Cardinals by a long way.
Monash Blues vs Beaumaris - Blues will get it done at home. The margin will be a real indicator of how the Sharks are going.
Old Haileybury vs Parkdale - Vultures in the close one of the day.

Caught a half on Caulfield and they look the goods , Goddard will make them favourites . Can’t work out Monash , thought they’d be good .

Saw Caulfield for the first half last week and they were pretty impressive.However,just looking at their style/ball movement I think Brindisi wont suit them.

The difficulty for Uni clubs is that they do not have a ‘feeder’ club. No juniors and no school players that come with a single point to their name. Am I correct in saying that Caulfield will receive a points reduction for Goddard even though he’s come straight from AFL? (Not that anyone should have a problem with a player returning to his school old boys)
Last week Blacks 40 pts - Monash 39. Plenty of those points would wipe away if they became a 1 for a student at the given university.

St Bedes Mentone vs Caulfield - Based on Rd.1's results I would be inclined to go for Caulfield, however, the postage stamp is a different ball game and can see St Bedes winning in a close one. Under 2 goals.
Fitzroy vs University Blacks - Fitzroy were horrible last week and I don't see that getting any better against the slick Blacks outfit. Black by 70 points+.
Old Geelong vs Old Scotch - OGGS got the W against Beauy and Scotch beat an average Fitzroy. Seeing as Fitzroy beat OGGS by 50+ in the GF last year, I can't see them getting close to Scotch. OS by 50 points.
Monash Blues vs Beaumaris - Apart from Bedes v Caulfield, match of the round. Can't exactly place either team so I will go with the home team by 7 points.
Old Haileybury vs Parkdale - Parkdale seem to have been there abouts most years but look to be a contender for 4th spot this year. Parkdale by 35 points.

Caulfield in a thriller
Blacks by a lot
OS by 8 goals
Blues by 20 pts
Parkdale by 5 goals
Beders on their home deck for me.
Blacks by 75
Scotch by plenty
Monash to get over the line. Lots of new players going to take a while.
Parky by 30.
