Shepp Swans
Shepp United
Seymour
Echuca
Shepparton

at 1st glance i thought how can shepp and united be in it but once i thought about it you may be right cos euroa and mooroopna have lost players tat and ky are just crap the only change i would prob have is maybe change benalla with shepp, i think shepp is still too young and lost a few but still go ok benalla have lost a few but will still fire, united should be around there somewhere they have lost players also but still have a good core i dont know about their depth though, back on mooroopna having lost a few players they still have a good list and i think will finish up there
i forgot about mansfield they will be competitive but not as strong as previous years due to losing key players who knows its still very early

This is a load of crap Smig. I have no doubt that there would be AT LEAST 10 players in Ky's seniors each week willing to give up their $100 so that the club could have a gun on $1000 a game, or two quality imports on $500 or whatever, if it meant you had a better chance of finishing above last or second last. If that means a couple of players miss out on a senior game, well maybe they shouldn't be playing ones in the first place. As for locals - why not try to entice some former locals back with the $$ - Jason Morgan, Andrew Gill, Leigh Ryall, Josh Dicketts, David Newman, Chris Atkins, Andrew Sierakowski, Heath Barnett - all pretty handy young players who aren't at Ky this year and aren't running around in minor leagues either. I know that they each have their own circumstances and reasons for not playing, but $100 a game for your worst 10 players so they can stay around the club? A good culture and a winning mentality keeps people around clubs, not throwing away $100 to every player then being unable to pay possible recruits what others are offering because you're spending $3000 a week on locals. I think it actually works the other way and rewards mediocrity. If it entices some KDL players back to Ky, how much difference are they really going to make against the top teams?
Spot on M.D. . Successeful clubs(like Seymour perhaps) try to look for that magic mix of 75% to 80% of local talent and pay them bugger all to nothing then top up the rest with a couple of well paid guns. I'ts a fine balancing act but if any club can manage to get it right , success will be banging down your door.

Looks like Tat are in a bit more trouble with Linc and Bryce Wellington seeking transfer to Numurkah. Bryce kicked 32 goals last year and Linc has been an interleague rep.

Should we be worried about the future of Tatura in the GV?

Linc was signed up as coach of Numurkah before xmas Rowey so not big or new news there mate.

At the end of the day half of them go out to Lancaster where they still cant win a final. I dont see these guys making an impact in the GVFL.
As long as you can pick an aussie rules football out in a sports store you will be good enough to get a game in a KDL side.
In regards to player payments for Reserves footy, if im not mistaken, KDFL sides pay players?? The standard of Football is no different.
Greg, don't think people aren't well aware of your many alias's on here. Ice Pick, The Fan....should we name them all?
You certainly do have something against Lanky, but why? Do you envy the way in which the club has managed to stay up for so long? Don't start this "Lanky steal all of ky's players once we bring them thru" crap again. You and I know that aint true. You're own brother was one player who chose to leave ky last year. For as long as Lancaster has been sirtuated next to Ky it has gained the players who felt unneeded or who weren't happy at Ky.
Don't look at Lancaster for an explanation.
You mention that as long as you can identify a Sherrin you're able to get a game in the KDL....I guess you should be able to do this yourself then?
KDL get's a bad wrap, but there are alot of quality players who chose to run around in the district league at different times who could play GV footy. You know this as well as I do. Tyson Sidebottom, Andrew Gill, Patty Rattray etc.

i see were your coming from but from what i have heard the players that wanted the system and that included a fair few in that list you mentioned. They didn't want some import coming in getting $500-1000 a game and then pissing off back to melbourne, when half the time there not worth anywere near the cash they are asking for anyway.

also if i remember right ky also have room for 5 payed players in there system so there is money to get the recruits and i have no doubt they have talked to all the players on that list but they all have there own reasons and it is not to do with cash.

Eg the first two Jason Morgan and Andrew Gill are both living in melbourne and wanting to test themselves at VFL level, cant help that

The swans must of offered Looby a heap of money to change his mind about coming back and playing with his brother at tat
Hardly a surprise, he sounds like a club jumper in the article.

"Looby signed with Port Melbourne in the Victorian Football League, but a change of heart led him back to the Port Adelaide Magpies in the South Australian National Football League, where he was signed up for two years before ultimately deciding to come home".

So he's already been signed twice for his footy this year and pulled the pin both times! Then he goes and trains at Tat and then off to Shepparton Swans.

Where will he be next week?

Out of the 5 paid players, 3 of them would be the playing coaches wouldnt they? Or is that on top of them? Can't agree more about Gill and Morgan that will be good for the club in the long run hopefully when they return.

Shane,

I never metioned Lancaster steal all of Kyabrams players, I did say half of the players that leave Ky go to Lancaster. I cant recall any player going to Lancaster that would actually assist Ky 1's in playing finals in the last 10 years, Maybe IQ? So I would never argue "Lanky steal all of ky's players once we bring them thru", as you mentioned. Lancaster are a tight group, this is compounded by the fact that several of these players have something in common as you mentioned, they "dont believe they feel wanted by Kyabram", as you would know. Which I find quite sad, as a club is only what you make it.
The players that mature from the KDL do test themselves at the GVL level which is great, the Gills, Browns, Sideys, Rattrays.
I never said there wasnt decent players in the KDL, I did say though it is very easy to play in the KDL. Having said that, it has been pretty easy to get a game for Ky 1's the last couple of years aswell.
As for my thoughts on Lancaster. I supported Lancaster well before I knew where Ky was. Players that leave Ky and then slag the club are the ones that leave a sour taste in my mouth, unfortunately many of them play at Lancaster.
Concerning my "aliases" I am sure Icepick would be laughing for as like me, you and these people you talk of have no idea who he is. I wish I could take the credit for the Gav Canute whisper as it was right up there. Well done Pick!

Do not ever bag the District Leagues. Poor form! Why do many people in the GVFL see themselves as being the next best thing to the AFL? Sure there are some great players in the GV, but I am sure district league teams could give many GV teams a scare and may even beat some of them. Look at teams like Stanhope when they were at their prime!

Pick out a footy in a shop, what a joke! You have no idea. We aren't Auskick mate!

Gonna have a shot too...My prediction is based on the transfer list as well as last years finishes

Swans - Biggest recruiter
United - Hardly lost any senior players and gained Davies, not sure about this Cowman though?
Seymour - Lost a few talls, but their depth from last years 2's will help them remail competitive
Rochy - Influx of locals retrning should help them play finals, don't know how good these guys are though
Echuca - Should be competitive - Don't think theyv lost or gained much but with the standard of GV decreasing, they should be better for it
Benalla
Euroa
Mooropna
Mansfield - Hard to seperate these 4 as they have still got some matchwinners and could finish b/ween 5th and 9th
Shepp Bears - Nothing gained, lost a lot of depth. But should remain competitive due to their 3rds guns
Kyabram - Can't see them winning more than 2-4 games. Not a fan of the 3 player-coach system. Need a proven leader with experience to coach them
Tatura - In for a looooong, looooooooooooong year. 15 goal plus losses will be the norm. Might not even field a 2's side regularly. Unfortunate situation

i think you will find the ruckman cowman from united wont be playing there this year and they have actually lost a few senior players being steve hazelman injured schimer injured pelvis gillespie and bovalina, but they have recruited well in davies and kept most of their good players
i agree with everything you have said about all the other teams inparticularly rochy i think you will find they will be very strong this year and could go very close

Not sure about Hopwood. His name hasnt been mentioned, but he may pop up in the next few weeks. Becasue of the drought there are a number of teams with low numbers at training so its hard to get a good measure of new recruits.

As for Xavs they have only lost Mollard and Lethlean, and gained McCarthy from Geelong and a younger Dimatina (not sure if there is a connection) and Purse has come back from Werribee. Should be a force again this year as per usual but I think it will be hard to stop them.

When your as dumb as a door post, speak with a stutter and have a subzero work ethic - there are obviously not to many employment fields that a club can get you into.

All though Mooroopna at the time needed to raise profile and performance, i think Singh leaving the Cattery this year has come at a good time for both the club and player.

Concerning my "aliases" I am sure Icepick would be laughing for as like me, you and these people you talk of have no idea who he is. I wish I could take the credit for the Gav Canute whisper as it was right up there. Well done Pick!
For along time, players have felt this way. When I left ky I joined a group of maybe 5 or 6 guysolder than me who had played their junior footy and a few years of reserve football in at Ky, many of us winning premierships. However, they all had the same story, treated like second class citizens unless they were a top senior player.
Maybe things have changed, as I'm sure they have(with the new coaches), but from what I've been told from players who have left in the last few years they had much the same reason.
That's not sad for the players leaving, it's the club that suffers.
Paulo, Burners and Finny are all top blokes and great footballers, and I wish them well, but as I've stated before, there is a reason so many players have left the club. Until it is changed players will look for greener pastures.

Cosby are you the captain of Lancaster, if so why dont you start leading from the front on the training track instead of putting down a club that you couldn't make it at. Your meant to be a leader of a proud and succesfull football club. Your better than this Cosby, you sound like those Ky days still haunt you. Get on with playing good footy with the bats.:thumbsu:

Gonna have a shot too...My prediction is based on the transfer list as well as last years finishes

Swans - Biggest recruiter
United - Hardly lost any senior players and gained Davies, not sure about this Cowman though?
Seymour - Lost a few talls, but their depth from last years 2's will help them remail competitive
Rochy - Influx of locals retrning should help them play finals, don't know how good these guys are though
Echuca - Should be competitive - Don't think theyv lost or gained much but with the standard of GV decreasing, they should be better for it
Benalla
Euroa
Mooropna
Mansfield - Hard to seperate these 4 as they have still got some matchwinners and could finish b/ween 5th and 9th
Shepp Bears - Nothing gained, lost a lot of depth. But should remain competitive due to their 3rds guns
Kyabram - Can't see them winning more than 2-4 games. Not a fan of the 3 player-coach system. Need a proven leader with experience to coach them
Tatura - In for a looooong, looooooooooooong year. 15 goal plus losses will be the norm. Might not even field a 2's side regularly. Unfortunate situation

Can tell you that united have lost several seconds players but senior players also. Cowman, S.Hazleman, Gillespie, S.Scott, Osborne, T.Eddy (inj), Schirmer (inj), Ralph, Maunder, M.Sidebottom (a couple of these played 1sts n 2nds also unsure if Smith will play.

Big signing in davies though and a couple from melbourne way. Will be good to see how they go.

Don't know about that Ice pick, sure I remember him running around in the ones for Ky, and I bet if he wanted to return now he would be rucking or holding down a kep position for them.
Can't take any of your comments too seriously though when you havent got a real name to back it up with, and if you knock around with The Fan and Peter Dyson, well well havent they both got a lot of experience playing GV ones or for that matter GV twos, or god forbid KDL ones.:eek:

Yes, I'm the captain of a proud football club, but the Ky days don't haunt me. I played footy with some great guys, won a couple of premierships and had some great times. The main reason I entered into the discussion and put my point of view in was that a couple of people had had a crack at Lancaster, other KDFL clubs and the league in general while talking about why Ky have not been 'up' for a while.

At least I know Rusty appreciated my thoughts. ;)

Hey Footy tosser I was with some of Euroas bigwigs on Thursday night....we watched 16 players go around and the hiarachy were pretty dissapointed in what they saw, I don't know who you are but if you trained you wern't much good, Euroa look very ordinary, I think it's fair to say they had there chance, like Seymour, the difference.... two flags to nil, and I bet Sparras mum a good stick, probably kicks on her wrong side too, something the magpies who are left might practise!!!

Well you have obviously never played at the same club as him before then. Know he went to a lot of Tat functions over the past 3 years as I was invited to go along and attend some of them, he also got along very well with the majority of players there and still catches up with a fair few of them. So far with us he has already paid for and ordered a long sleeve jumper, we have had a major social function also which he paid for the ticket and attended, so so far he has been excellent and no doubt will be for the rest of the year. Thanks for your incite anyway Zero but I know we have got nothing to worry about off field or on, will be a great acquisition for the club.

You're obviously good mates with him. But do you watch over his computer 24/7.

I have read back through previous quotes, the only thing I can find is Researcher reflecting on a game when Spargo played seniors. Only Spargo himself would remember this game. Everyone else would have

Will do mate, the Seymour one could be right, don't know, he was travelling from Bendigo with two other youngsters (CJ and Frase)who were going to uni, if that was the case probably had other things on their minds come Thursday and Saturday nights ie. out in Bendigo. The money side of things would have been no doubt a problem for them all being at uni, been there done that and come the second week of your fortnightly payments she was fairly slim pickings.

Hardly a surprise, he sounds like a club jumper in the article.

"Looby signed with Port Melbourne in the Victorian Football League, but a change of heart led him back to the Port Adelaide Magpies in the South Australian National Football League, where he was signed up for two years before ultimately deciding to come home".

So he's already been signed twice for his footy this year and pulled the pin both times! Then he goes and trains at Tat and then off to Shepparton Swans.

Where will he be next week?

Glad somebody has said it,.

You are right American Ninja. 5 big recruits should of been first priority. Then the likes of Atkins, Barnett and Siera would be back playing this year. It adds excitement around the place and and hope to the supporters and players(local). Too many ordinary footballers have been getting senior games at ky and devaluing the whole aura of being a senior GVL player. Unfortunately this trend may continue this year.

Can't see Ky making much progress in 07. I heard Atkins is going to Nathalia????:rolleyes:
