Great to see my old team the hoppers starting the season well. Great for the comp if they can keep going and serve it up to the stronger sides. Might have to venture up the hume hwy for the Mitta clash if both still going well, clash of the old rivals - gotta love it. Also see the bagging of the hoppers which happened last season on big footy has stopped, interesting!!!!!!!!!

It is great Fat side but only 2 games.
Just to all other visiting teams to barny, the rooms have been given a make over, you wont fall thru thr floor, its concrete. The showers are fixed - no electric shock and plenty of water. Its still a sardine can but it is a fair bit better. Hard to believe i know but saw it for my own eyes lol

Yeah the Hoppers were good against us the previous week, and good to see them back up that form with a win against Barny on the road. Clough is hard & tough down back and the boy Pashley chops off plenty of attacking moves across half back, with the old stager Geeba adding plenty of poise (if not a lot of pace these days). Hansford is of course a class act in the middle, with help from Dosen & a bloke I'd never seen before Gigliotti. Plenty of options up forward too, with McGuire, Bradshaw & Mansell. Only a matter of time before Jones gets under a teams guard and kicks a bag too. Plenty to look forward to for Hopper fans after a couple of years in the doldrums. I'm told they're spending plenty of kanga, but it appears thus far they are getting value for money. Early days yet but 2 from 2 against last year's finalists a great kick off. Time will indeed tell.

With DMB's reserves only kicking 1 point on the weekend is it fair to write the 1's premiership chances off??
I can't see how a team with no depth can make an impact on the comp in the latter rounds with no one putting pressure on the senior guys to keep their spotor to replace injured players.

Fair call KB but I believe they a had a few players unav on the weekend both sen an res players. But well done to yack on the weekend.
After there(yack) top 5 or 6 players there nxt 15 to 20 players look very even, the biggest problem lillis an co will have is trying to pick the best conbination, I still dont think they will play finals, not enough class.
Any truth in the rumor that another ex o&M player heading to mitta??
As if they need an more quality players!

I totally hear what ya saying KB but somehow over the years Dederang have managed to be quite a successful club with a struggling 2nds team. I am not sure where their ressie's finished in 1999, 2001 and 2003 when the seniors were premiers (perhaps someone can tell us) but I know that in both 2005,06 the seniors played finals while the 2nds struggled (finishing second last both years). They are just one of those teams that for some reason don't need a strong 2nds team. This could well be another of those years where the seniors finish 4th or 5th while the two's finish in the bottom 2.

Those who write off DMB do so at ur own peril.
Far better side than what turned up 2 play on Saturday and Yack will only get better with John Paola and Daniel Daly to come into the side.

Why weren't Paola and Daly playing on the weekend? Are they carrying injuries?

Read a few interesting posts a while back from a character known as Roughy. Certainly got a few of you boys chirping. Am very interested as to how Roughy has played so far this season? (Roughy - feel free to answer this as well).
To be honest I am yet to play in the seniors. I have a niggling injury at the moment that just doesn't seem to want to come good. Plus our coach is a bit of a tosser and only looks after the "so called" big name players from Wodonga. I'm a bloody good player but he is a twit.

Paola I beleive was at a wedding and Daly probably wont play til the second half of the season after having a holiday.
I think that the bagging last year was more about the quality of the recruits they picked up- I thought it was fair enough. This year the recruits are obviously a lot better. And in turn the hoppers are travelling ok at the moment.

1 post, 2 at the most on the recuits they picked up last year so i think you are wrong on that account. Bagging on their committee, coach and why they didnt change back to Collingwood colours seemed to occupy most of the threads. Agreed recruits better this season.
From my memory there was quite a few on where they got most of their recruits from- upper murray. I haven't looked back through the threads though. I also presumed that the club copped negative posts due to their performance. If all was going well last year i'm sure it would have been all positive. This year very different; good performance= positive posts-thus far. I do remember the stuff on the coach and the club colours stuff though. Wouldn't the coach be classed as a recruit(that's if he came back to the hoppers in 07)?

what team are u playin for Roughy?????
Dont even bother allclass.
My tip on roughy is that he is a reserves player at best who has been around a long time with too much spare time on his hands. His identity is not far from being revealed.
Good one Harris,
If I slept with my coach I'd hope to be playing seniors too.
I'd never lower myself to that standard because he's too short for my liking and he cant coach for shiit. I don't know how he ever did it at O&M level.

BGK, I generally try not to get sucked in by trolls like yourself but comments like that just cross the line sometimes.
Can't even contract leather poisoning in the 2's !

Read my previous post you twit. I have a niggling injury that doesn't seem to want to come good. Don't question my talent.

Busted, I let my guard down. Thanks for the laughs, I hope there are no hard feelings. I was going to take Roughy down a new line of trolling but it's time to quit.
Time to start up under a new name.

So now that rubbish is over can we get back to the footy.
So from what I've read in these posts and looking through the results it looks as if its shaping up to be another 2 horse race this year with Mitta and The Mighty Hawks miles ahead again and the next 3 spots open to about 6 teams, looks interesting.
Also good to see Tallangatta getting better, too goo of a club to be down for so long and its good for the competition to have them competing for the final, good for sandy creek ticket sales.
Living interstate its hard for me to know exactly whats going on butI'm hoping to get home to watch the Hawks later this year so I can see how good they really are.
