going to be a cracking year

I see Justin Chalmers is going to Allansford from the dogs.......East have a new coach but their numbers are terrible.....you can safely cross out deakin nirranda and east already.....mathias mcinerny from timboon has retired.....merrivale should be the team this year..rovers will be there again....questiion mark ove panmure..........kolora-noorat are like fremantle....promise great things but never deliver...russells creek will struggle......top 5 from last year very much same this year...
 
you can't make your prediction at the start of the season. The first game hasn't been played. What about panmure just because they ear out of town you just forget them?

Of course you can, thats what predictions are. Whether they are right or wrong, founded or unfounded matters little. Everyone makes preseason predictions. It means nothing, it's just an opinion.

For the record, I think Panmure will suck balls this year. May even challenge for the wooden spoon. ANd I am from out of town.
 
i reckon panmure will put up a good fight this year to teams like timboon, kolora-noorat and south rovers and merrivale will also be a big contender this year. i dont think there will be nany other teams in the running from knowledge off the grape vine.

THE AXE!!!!!
 
dont be surprised if east implode with the way charley had been treated.....theyre now the laughing stock of the league and have truly embarrased themselves. they make dennington look good after they way they treated swisher!!!...........its so easy to make predictions about this year not many are right with their predictions......by the way, with all the recruiting panmure may change their name to the panmure bloods!!!!! ok, if u want a prediction......merrivale........................panmure to maybe scrape into the 5...just!!
 
hey guys this is my first post on the WDFL forum. Just wondering if any of you know how things are going at Allansford and Nirranda. Have brothers playing at those clubs and am keen to know how both are shaping up.
 
i think Nirranda will be much the same as last year....Allansford have got Holscher from Koroit as asst coach and Justin Chalmers from dennington. Apart from that the cats will be competitive this year and at best should pinch 5th spot. Cross out Nirranda even before round 1...thats how well theyll go!!

Panmure may look good on paper but you dont play on paper.....Darren Little will struggle this year........knees are shot and he wont cope with the standard of district league........WDFNL is just getting better!!
 
Lets hope Timboon dont throw away their chances like they did in the last quarter of last years granny......the fifties they gave away were there but they blame the umps for them.....wot a joke. When they accept responsibilties for their own actions they might actually win a flag! Does anyone know that they have only won 1 final since being in the league?

What a load of crap. The Timboon players know full well they have noone to blame but themselves.
 
When rot sets in like it did for Timboon last year in the Granny. You can only look at the coach or the committe. Because thats where it "usually" starts

That is what it looks like from the outside!!!

........yes, thats what im getting at.....its their own fault for the granny loss but they put the blame elsewhere.....i cant stand the club or players. Look up "cocky" in the dictionary and it comes up "timboon"
 
Then you don't know the Timboon players very well at all. They a no more cocky or arrogant than Merrivale or Kolora or any of the confident teams.
In fact, Timboon players and supporters usually have a few stick around for beers after games, most Warrnambool teams won't even bother coming to the clubrooms in Timboon.

Don't mistake confidence for arrogance or cockiness. All the good teams outwardly look like this.

And to sack Matho for them losing the Grand Final is rediculous. Sure they self destructed but they were still only a few goals from winning it. Had they kept their heads in the GF, Matho would reap the plaudits of a good season. It's like saying Dean Laidley should be sacked because the Roos imploded in the finals. A stupid comment. There are no doubt better coaches out there, but he did little wrong, except lose the GF.
 
Most people dont want to hang round for a drink as theyd rather be on the road heading home from Timboon..........the same could be said for Timboon not staying for a drink when in Warrnambool or elsewhere but most of the Timboon players live in Warrnambool......By the way..I never said matho should be sacked but its quite obvious Mick Hunt did the coaching and matho the spokesman...that stood out like a beacon...all the other clubs could see it....matho is NOT a coach!!

I feel the same way every club should at least stay around for one beer after the game, players and supporters. Its only the townies that leave straight away all the ones in the country stay for one or two if not a lot.
