So RDFL kids have smashed it at the AFL National Draft tonight. Can anyone do a run down as to who they all are and more importantly which RDFL clubs they hail from? Cheers

Great to see the young rdfl stars making it to the big time!!!!!! Its not only a fantastic achievement by the individual players but a great endorsement for the rdfl.

have i missed something here doesnt doona2 coach Kilmore? was some Broadford people at hogans on the weekend for a mutual friends birthday and they were excited about the new coach and the thought Barry Hall playing 4 or 5 home games. One was a parent and admitted his son and couple of hs mates will onbiously struggle to get a game now as a result of the recruiting

I’m obviously not privy to the genuine mail, but still have a lot of friends (I think) up home. Was talking to a couple of the Avenel footballers at local cricket on the weekend and they were of the impression that both Andrew Green (their asst.coach) and Robbie Sidebottom were apparently contacted. As far as GVFL players, again only what you hear but names like Paul Kirby (Tat), Trent Fisher (Sey) and Bradley Gleeson (Euroa) have all been thrown around. Was at a BBQ Sunday in Broadford and all 5 names were bandied around there too so who knows.
Good on them for having a go I say, Skip's intentions are good and he wants to try and set the club for a healthy future. There is still a lot of division about whether or not the club should be in the RDFL so what better way to unify and make it all worthwhile than by supporting what Skips put in place and enjoying the ride.
Throw in any of them guys along with Baz, Fletcher, Kelly, Dunne, Webster, Rowbotham, Slade etc and you’d expect things to strengthen massively. Just means those who have been walk ups for the past 4-5 years may have to compete and each other for remaining positions which can be healthy anyway.
Last time the bulk of them blokes played at the club we played finals (2007) and our ressies went thru undefeated, already been comparisons to the depth we had back then.
And if any of them can’t see themselves playing senior football but still have aspirations to do so, then they’re more than welcome to drive 10 minutes to Kilmore and say g’day. This nonsense of “not playing against my old club” isn’t exactly a concern amongst the RDFL, as it’s quite a common occurance which a lot of blokes would attest to and often encouraged if it means blokes are playing football which afterall should be most important.
They have just changed colours from yellow and blue to yellow and navy blue. Navy base with 3 thick yellow vertical stripes with a wide yellow v across the top. They also have the college emblem above the v. Kind of looks like s set of cricket stumps. Maybe that's what they were going for with the whole birth place of the ashes thing. Juniors wear the same jumper.
With you on this one Doona, I highly doubt he will be aligning himself to Lancefield whilst Fitzy is holding the reigns at Gisborne.
Hello there EBF 2012, welcome on board. Unfortunately Kilmore aren't attracting big numbers yet but it's still early days. Hopefully they attract a few more in the new year.
Yeah, there's probably about 20-30 including about 4 under 18s and 2 under 16s. There's still a fair bit of work to do still.

Real shame losing two very innovative & progressive thinking members off the Board pal............Come to think of it they were probably the only innovative & progressive thinking members on there !!!
Care to make a comment on the new inclusion/s mate, or what went on at the A.G.M. ?
Would also hope the process of choosing grounds for finals is given more flexibility. We saw a final played on a dangerously boggy ground this year because the game was promised to the ground in advance. Shouldn't ever happen again in this league.
Pleeeease!! It is a wet winter sport and a little mud has never hurt anyone!!!
