RDFL 2017 Season discussion

[Humphrey BB]

Is Pricey a big guy with a bald head?

Not sure sorry, wasn't at the Prezzo night, is the father of a former Rupo Jnr who played 18's this year.

Great to see young jake lever local Romsey senior and junior into a afl grand final congratulations

With talk about him looking to come home , u would think Romsey may be keen to talk to Tyson about a return? Played seniors at Gisborne whilst playing at Calder, looked a fair player.

Looks like riddell will be right in the hunt again with Paul Sahlberg, Peter Robertson returning premiership stars and former VFL coburg listed player Dylan Tarczon. With Robertson and Sahlberg 1 pointers costing them nothing its 3 great recruits to start off 2018.

Be silly to return from SANFL to district footy at his age, give it everything while the opportunity and doors are ajar, can always come home by rarely do u get a second crack at genuine levels of football.

He only played 9 games in the SANFL, not sure he was carving it up given never in the best at all, I imagine being the brother of may have helped. Not sure he is that far above RDFL Std Doona?

I'll take your word that, admittedly haven't seen him play this year but did a fair bit prior.
It Doesn't mean you chuck it in, he's a cracking kid who over the past 2-3 years woulda learnt a fair bit so if both boys venture back to Victoria I'd be extremely surprised if at his age young Tyson chose to lob back in the RDFL.

Plenty of time for that

Point taken, however Dick, Hetherington and Langford albeit that bit older all lobbed in the RDFL off the back of better credentials and from similar state comps. Dick got delisted by Carlton and played his next game as a Macedon Cat @ 22, same with Langford @ Diggers from Hawthorn, so stranger things can happen.

 

[Bucks no chance]

Who will James house try and get back to lancefield ?

Hopefully not many that have either left for dough or left and took guys with them.
Return to the same old and you'll get the same outcomes.

U19.5 next year I heard. Thoughts?

 

[Redfitzroyblue]

Why ??? When that doesn't workout make U/21s. It's been U/18•5s for the last 17 years, the only thing that will hurt will be the seconds for every club.

Not sure why, just what I heard friday night.

Macedon's B&F Errol McConnell from Tom Waters Jason Cooke 3rd.

So it's happened again. Last time a Macedon player won a Bowen he also finished 3rd in club b&f and left the club with the shits. IMO the club b&f is always a truer indication

He would have a fair list of contacts wouldn't he ?

No idea, just as long as he gets the Tigers the "right" contacts I'm sure it will be positive for the club.

Odd age groups in the juniors so maintains 2 and a half years

Odd age groups in the juniors so maintains 2 and a half years

Woulda made it tough on some clubs getting 3rds in 2018 if going to 17s meant not as many rolled thru to 18.5's

Any kid worth his salt is playing against grown men be it 1's or 2's by the time his 19, but if it keeps a few other young blokes involved and around clubs it cant be a bad thing, as let's be honest some of the alternate social options at present are great

It'll be because juniors are going to odds 11/13/15/17.5

Juniors 11-13-15-17 half age group gone.

Boof missed a lot of the year with injury including the back half.. AC joint injury

 

[Redfitzroyblue]

What's with all these media outlets e.g RDFL Facebook page, local papers and Macedon Cats Facebook page going on about it's the Cats first premiership in 41 years. Well it's the Macedon Cats first ever premiership, Macedon football club last won a premiership 41 years ago and this club is no more full stop.

Would Kev be a good 'Fitz' at Kangas ?

If it keeps a few young fellas playing for longer it can only be a good thing.

Not all senior Rdfl clubs have juniors in the Rdfl such as Wallan and Broadford for instance and age groups don’t necessarily align with Rdfl age groups

Get over it Macedon are premiers and deservedly so thats all that matters.
