Spot on mate, its an absolute priviledge getting to watch this bloke play every week. He's playing as well as ive seen him at the moment, the word that best describes him would be "freak". Ollie Messoudi's probably in career best form as well, the two hardest blokes you'll ever see in my opinion.
Huge crowd at Gisborne on Saturday (and i'm not exagerating) for our family day, Biggest crowd ive seen at Gisborne since we hosted the 1999 RDFL grand final i reckon.
playin for north city under 18s its fairly hard to keep up with how strong our opposition is considering we hav little knowledge of which opposition under 18 players are playin seniors instead.. can any1 fill me in with these players from respective clubs?

time for norfolk and pinnacle (espec. pinnacle seeing Square Twos got pumped) to explain on this thread wots going on with Joffa's boys and the lads in the next grade down
kenny noisebone still gives the hurst a chance
need to show plenty before the midyear turnaround admittedly gillys boys have 3 reasonably easy games vs. maryboro, flat and kyneton to get to the halfway mark they did show some grunt vs gissie in round 3 going down by 7 points

Sandhurst is a young side, so when they have an off day (eg. Square & E/hawk), they don't have an old bloke to whip their minds back on to the job.
I would like to hear from square boys about the weekend... What happened there?? The 2's got pumped... and the seniors were close to being flogged? Were they on the same water as the Dragons or what?

I think you'll find the boys got a touch ahead of themselves i think, south were first in for the footy and just plain wanted it more. Makes the next two games against the two "form" sides of the comp even more important.
Surprisingly, the two's game between Square and South wasn't as one sided as it looked on the scoreboard. In the middle of the ground it was fairly even and competitive, our midfielders didn't run back and much as they ran forward and south got alot of easy goals running into the forward 50. Take nothing away from South though they were clearly the better side, the two's have a lot of work to do, if they want to be fighting for the flag. i think maybe a few of them were getting ahead of ourselves.
The ones just had an off day in my opinion, will bounce back strong this week, could make excuses about injuries but in reality if the blokes out on the field all played to their best abilities they could have won quite easily.
We'll see the character of a few in the next few games.

Interesting observation Bearsboy. I had a chance to come up and have a look at the game. There seemed like there was a few there but what caught my attention is that the Gisborne crowd did not applaud or beep a horn for any of the Gisborne goals. There was much more noise when a Kyneton goal was kicked. Are Gisborne supporters dis-enchanted with their dominence of the league?
Thought Saunders was best on by a street, Olly and Davis were more than handy. Thought Kyneton, with what they had, fought it out really well and I don't think Gisborne would have been overly happy with beating what resembled a two's side by only 12 goals.
Another tick to Saunders who after the game acknowledged that Kyneton were undermanned and put in a good fight. It showed a bit of class rather than saying Gisborne had a bad day.

Interesting to see those business committments must extend to Noosa Jock? Not as a player (at this point) but sighted on the Sunshine Coast over the last two weeks.
What was interesting about my observation pentium ?
Gisbornes kicked about 140 goals in 6 games this year, so you can understand the supporters not getting overly excited when a goal is scored. I think Gisbornes average winning margin this year would be around the 100 point mark which doesnt make for real exciting footy.
Looking forward to this weeks Game against South, should be a ripper !
Yeah, there were a heap of RDFL boys at the Game. Gee i copped a hiding on their thread for inviting them to the game for a look, i think i know were our mate warrens gone, he's changed his name to itsmyshow and lobbed on the RDFL thread, this bloke has some real issues. I reckon he wanted to become a cop but missed out and became a bigfooty moderator instead.
As I said Zakky, they were well and truely the better side, we couldn't do alot to stop them with the way we were playing. I for one didn't play anywhere near as well as i should have.
Yeah Dissy is for real with that name mate, good player, won our two's b&f about 3 years ago i think. First year back at the club since! Great name too
What are peoples thoughts on the game of the year this weekend?
KANGAROO FLAT v NORTH CITY
This is a must win game for both clubs who have copped several hidings each. A few media personalities thought the Northies were a show against Maryborough but look what happened.
The Flat have been competitive in patches but when they drop their heads and avalanche of goals get kicked against them. Due to injuries and departures we have played alot of young guys that will be great for our future.
We get a few back this week so I am tipping our first win against the Northies this weekend. Go ROOERS!

Saunders is a champion, end of argument.
For those of you who claim that injury is no excuse for Kyneton, I ask you to please do some research on the quality of players that have been unavailable. If you need any assistance in compiling this list I will be happy to help.

NEED to have a closer read, TWITA. It's Trent Zantuck who has the clothing label and retail outlet or outlets to sell that brand of clothing.
He's been missing, as suggested earlier in the season, for business reasons.
It WAS TY. Z. who was spotted on the Sunshine Coast. He's allegedly going to train at Noosa Thurs. evening although if the training is anything similar to his pre-season efforts at Dower Park it might consist of a couple of leisurely laps of the oval and then into the clubrooms.
And yerrrsss Cavey. The Green and Whites should dispose of the Northies this Sat. Isn't it marvellous how everyone couldl be right to play for your boys this round -- including Warry -- although it must be said Harrington has been suffering frim a hammie problem for 3-4 weeks and no one should ever doubt his commitment to the Dower Park cause.

The Northies were very confident of winning that game too Caveman.... I reckon they will fancy their chances again this round!
I completely agree that the Northies will be feeling confident about this week. Playing another team that hasnt won a game would have to give you a boost. Hopefully it is the mighty Rooers who take the 4 points.

Fair call Bears. The thing I guess that is dissapointing is that the Gisbornes, Kynetons, Castlemaines pride themselves on having die hard supporters that make an effort to get to the games - which they do - however if they're not vocal it makes you think the crowds could get like the ones you get at the Q.E.O - almost non-existant.
I guess the other thing is if the game was in the balance I'm sure the crowd would have got more involved.
I'm led to believe, and by the look of it on the weekend there was possibly only 3-4 players in the Kyneton side on the weekend that regulary played 1's last year. Not wanting to go on with the injury excuse but lets hope in the second half of the year they play at full strength - knock a couple over and bounce back as a final contender in the years to come.

Who are the best and worst coaches in the bendigo football league? anyone interested in making a list and reasons behind it..
Regarding the crowds pentium, as a club you'd rather 300 quiet supporters (i reckon we had more than that on Saturday) than 50 loud ones, especially at $8 a pop !
The crowds at the QEO are nothing short of embarasing.
Who has the smallest crowds ? i'd say Nth City and South, last year at Ballarat was incredible, their u18's and 2's left immediately after their respective games leaving only half a dozen (if that) Ballarat supporters at the game .
Eaglehawk and Gisborne probably the 2 biggest crowds i guess.

It was Trent I was referring to Jock - been back in Noosa for a couple of weeks according to my mail. As for Ty training at Noosa Tigers, I will get back to you after Thursday. My man up there says that they could use a goalkicking forward but won't be paying mega or zantuck bucks.
You'd have to have Filo in the mix some where has been there for a while now hasnt he and Barham must go all right as a coach to have so much success.
on another topic have the 2 frewbackers from south been playing? also at south whats goin on wiht havin the ginger ninja (nev clarke) in the scooby doos
