RDFNL 2022 Season discussion

[Toooldandsore]

Strange move when you think WRFL now has netball.

Could have been a good point of difference for the Rams - only team in the Melton area who is playing in WRFL.

Also they would be very competitive in Division 3.

Hope they pull through.

Any truth to the rumour Western Rams have parted ways with their Coach?

Watch this space on rams massive things going on

 

[EkKash]

Correct

I’ll be suprised if there is any club left next year

Lot of unhappy players related to the attempted move to the Wrfl

Wanting to try keep the club in the rdfl due to netball may have sunk the entire club

Either that or some of the players go with an ex disgruntled fella to Darley reserves lololol

Rams going no where they will improve

Would need to be some real quality in that 10 to rebuild them… where are they from?

Everywhere

All from Sunbury Kangaroos?!

Same players who left Rams this year to go to Sunbury are coming back is what I’ve heard.

Sherman got the job at Romsey did he?

I was told at GF that is the case

Kinglake was cleared from Outer East to Northern by AFL Victoria today.

This leaves Alexandra and Broadford-Yea stranded almost an hour away from their nearest opponent.

I think you might see both these clubs (which could become three if B-Y de-merges) looking towards the Riddell league.

Outer East is in a shambles at present.

Big trip to Melton, diggers and Rockbank for Alexandra.

Wouldn’t they be better going to NFNL?

 

[MortlockWatcher]

It would be even further.
Their location is a major drawback for most options.
There could be Heathcote and Kyabram, but distance is an issue as well.
They need the Waranga-North East or the Benalla District league to come back, but those ships have sailed.

Any truth to Rockbank lodging another request to join WRFL?

Thanks puts that rumour to bed.

With Woodlea juniors going to the WRFL it appears Rockbank are going to experience even more challenges in years to come.

I found it a bit strange Tom was quoted as saying he wanted to focus on his own football, surely he's at a stage in his career that it's not about him anymore?

I don’t think anyone can begrudge someone from taking a step back of the rigours of senior coaching considering the associated hours, commitment that’s required as well as extremely taxing Covid interrupted seasons.

He might be happy just turning up to training on time and enjoy a run around.
Either way it’s good that Lancefield has retained him in a playing role.
