spoke with broadford coach doona this morning who said a guy he had earmarked for a match day role had joined Kilmore as their football operations manager. seeing we are new to your comp i was wondering do all clubs have people in such positions or is it a new step in becomming more professional both on and off field? the way things are heading these days I can understand this way of thinking

Don't read too much into lads. From what I hear it's not step towards professionalism etc...just getting a bloke on board to do a number of jobs, thus the broad title!
 
Did hear that Diggers were no longer paying jose so he had left to pursue other options, or not playing at all.

Does the RDFL interleague team play the division 1 SFL interleague team, or division 2 side? If it is the Div 1 side the RDFL are in for a decent reality check. Whilst not as strong as the A grade ammo's or Eastern league, the SFL Div 1 football is of a very good standard and would beat the RDFL comprehensively in my opinion. Div 2 would be of a similar standard though.

Wether it is Div 1 or Div 2 they play, i must say it is good to see the league reintroduce the interleague concept back into the RDFL. :thumbsu:


Can anyone shed any light regarding the interleague game??

As most would know, last years coach and one of our best performed players over many seasons Adam Johnstone sustained a serious knee injury during the football season. It has come to the clubs attention that Adam has endured a number of out of pocket expenses in his operation and rehabilitation. To help Adam out we are going to conduct a fundraiser on Saturday night 13th of December at the club. The finer details are yet to be organised but there will be a dinner or BBQ, drinks at bar prices and a raffle or two. All profits on the night will go to Adam.

Be there and help the club support Johno.

ANYONE WELCOME!!!!

Good onya Woodend Cricket Club. A great gesture.
What a pity the football club he was playing and captaining for the 4thyear in a row couldnt do something like that. From what ive heard if they did he would still be there and not up the road at macedon as an assistant coach this year and player when his knee gets better.Poor form from the Woodsy footy club but great stuff from its Cricket Club. I bet Macedon are happy now either way. Does anyone know if he will make it back to footy this year? He's a top bloke Johnno and he deserves some good luck.

Not too sure, i know there will be a senior and under 18 game and also a netball side. check out the fixture on the league site it may state which division we will be playing on the Queens birthday weekend.
The RDFL will host the 2009 game and the SFL will host it in 2010.
Southern div 3 are fixtured to play that weekend so it will be div 1 or 2.
this was posted in a localfooty.com.au article during the year
"Mr McCartney said it was likely the league would play a representative team from the SFL's second and third divisions."
 
Contrary to popular opinion, Lancefield Football/Netball Club are very happy to announce that 2008 Bowen medalist Tommy Waters has signed and will remain with the club in 2009. Naturally Tommy was subject of many offers from clubs for his services, and we are very pleased that he decided to remain with us. This coincides with the signing of Lee Irwin, who is returning to the club from a stint at Kyneton, the confirmation that Ben Talbot will play in 2009 and a number of other potential recruits. The Tigers are looking forward to continuing our improvement of 2008, with good numbers on the track and a good vibe around the place.

Training continues on Monday and Wednesday night this week before the Christmas break, and any new players are more than welcome to come and have a run.

A little birdie told me Tom Waters was no longer dating a girl from Lancefield and was staying in Melb to play his football,he must had a change of mind??

Interesting to see he signed at Lancefield - came out and put a big price on his head. The thing is the kid needs to prove himself at a higher level to get paid what he was asking. Another good year in the RDFL won't raise his price in 2010. Needed a year of 2 to show he could be a good player in a better standard comp and then ask for it.

If you want to be a big dog you need to stop peeing like a puppy.

Throw in Crazyburn, Gisborne and Marbo park. Yes smart if he is a Lancefield player for life. Burning your bridges and playing clubs could hurt him in the long term. Being a good player in a weak team in the RDFL makes him someone that maybe ok in a stronger league.

And maybe that is why clubs offered him half of what he asked for and maybe that is why he stayed - some people like being a big fish in a little pond.

I agree with you there KA. Surely you should prove your worth in a major league for at least a year or two before you ask for that sort of coin.
 
Come on guys this thread is pretty good, in comparison to others due to no personal or defamatory comments. Keep them to PMs if you want to continue. please, i couldn't give a crap, either would others :thumbsdown:
 
Can some one on the thread give a description of the folowing players who have signed with sunbury. Robertson, Climas, James, Petran & Blade Just wondering what positions etc they play, the type of player they are and the views on how they will go in the bfl.
 
Anybody got any more info on the Kyneton boys at Woodend? Have they signed yet or just looking around? Any other pickups or notable/potential losses?

More importantly how are the cats looking, Nothing but the Facts you were going to give us a bit of a report on them after you went down to the MCG to watch them train. Have you had a look and how are the boys looking, expecially any new recruits.
 
Brad Else been at most training nights as well and I think is pretty keen. Good numbers on the track pre xmas. We tend not to get too many pre xmas, so good to have a few there.
 
After been red carded for over a week for giving it too pickles,i have come to the conclusion that he is on facebook but no one to talk too !So pickles don't use this thread as your facebook, keep it to footy . IS THAT BETTER IMS
 
As for you roy cazley you can assume that i come from woodend but i can assure you i still bleed red and blue
