Official GVFL thread (part 1)

[Long Wait Over]

Scotty Hahn from Rochy would also have to be in the mix :thumbsu:
Scott Hahn from Rochester would have to be a certainty for an under22 side.

[hpvectra]

whats this under 22 thing is like an interleague side or is it just something getting thrown around on this thread whens the cut off point for under 22 start of season or start of year like is the norm for these things

[undercover cat]

Missing the last few years you think undercover. Didnt Euroa make a grand final 2 years ago, so I owuld say they were playing as team to make a grand final. Its not to hard to see who is standing behind the goals at one end when you are playing at full back champ, pretty easy to do in fact, especially when the ball is at the other end of the ground. Maybe you cant do this, but alot of senior players can. Hayden was injured last week, you did state that he left the ground early the week before, so surely your smart enough to put 2 and 2 together. I think he should be back on the field this week. The write up wasnt that big compared to other articles that have appeared in the shep news last week.

When are you due back from your injury?

a couple of years before you arrived in the goulburn valley, the shepp swans tried to do the same thing, and from what i read in the papers it may be happening again, imports! and from what i seen of euroa the last two years these blokes play the game amongst themselves, and exclude blokes in the team. And then from what ive seen then fighting occurs.
Would you agree there has been a bit of fighting there the past few years amonst players?
Shoulder is good and am back this week with the aid of mad mick and 40 rolls of elastoplast and don't think it will move very far at all.

[FOOTYBOSS]

a couple of years before you arrived in the goulburn valley, the shepp swans tried to do the same thing, and from what i read in the papers it may be happening again, imports! and from what i seen of euroa the last two years these blokes play the game amongst themselves, and exclude blokes in the team. And then from what ive seen then fighting occurs.
Would you agree there has been a bit of fighting there the past few years amonst players?
Shoulder is good and am back this week with the aid of mad mick and 40 rolls of elastoplast and don't think it will move very far at all.

Well you definately need to get your eyes examined. As I said, Euroa made a Grand Final 2 years ago, so obviously no fighting that year. I totally disagree with you in regards to fighting within the team. How can they play the game amongst themselves when there is 18 players on a footy ground?

enough is enough
as a casual observer of this forum and in particular your posts undercover you force me to respond
I have to say buddy it is not the Euroa footy clubs fault that you are not up to playing senior GV footy.
So get over it-- move on -- and direct your energies to enjoying playing the standard you are attempting now
If we dont have ïmports"the considerable number of kids from the district that are capable of playing in a major league comp would have to go to elsewhere and Euroa go into a district league
The vast majority of people involved with the club find that prospect unacceptable
As far as you questioning the contribution of the guys from out of town who have played here over the last decade I would suggest their contribution(both on and off the field) has been far greater than their detractors - including yours.
So please undercover try and keep your insecurities to yourself !!

Matty Bell will stop talking crap about your former club and concentrate on getting a kick at your new club in the KDFL. Everyone knows why you left and it wasnt that lame excuse you gave the playing group. The real reason why you left the club is because you got dropped for the reserves finals last year. Matty Bell you have always been a hack on the footy field and always will be. Have fun playing for VT this year and it would be very funny if you got dropped from their finals team this year, should they make it.

Keep going at it boys,more fighting means more hacks coming
our way CHEERS :thumbsu:

[TheJuddstarr#3]

People on here are well versed on my thoughts on Trewhella.

A fat head that looks a lot older, but I do remember his 21st last year (sort of).

He would just about be captain of an under 22 side .. probably along with Nick Allen.

Here's a quick go at one .. No Bench and not all clubs represented because i don't know there sides too well and remember I'm in Tassie and haven't seen much GV for a while.

So open slather.

B: Mahoney (mans), Carroll (utd), Roy (mans)

HB: Looby (swa), (c)Trewhella (mans), Lanyon (swa)

C: R Preist (ben), Barlow (utd), W Martinello (ben)

HF: M Chapman (bears), F Priest (ben), Hiscock (bears)

FF: Millott (Mans) , Neville (tat) , Rendina (utd)

Foll: Browne (mans), (vc) Allen (Bears), Sheahan (mans),

Just had a look at the under 22's side thought i would post a few names from some shepp district clubs that could be eligable?

BEARS
Cullinan
M. Chapman
D. McIntyre

SWANS
Looby
Hackett
Hebbard
Montgomery (How old is he?)

UNITED
Barlow
Normington
Sidebottom (Again his age?)

MOOROOPNA
Tweedle
Hockey
Warnett
K. Boyer

TATURA
Crawford


Ok ill have a crack at this side now.. which is just an interest thing, no inter-league matches or that.


B:Carrol (Unt) Pappin (Roch) Joyce(ben)
HB:Ubergang(swa) Trewhella (Mans) Looby(swa)
C:Van Reit (sey) Hann(roch) Anderson (Seymour)
HF:Crawford(tat) Chapman (Shep) Lanyon(tat/swa)
FF:Montgomery(Swan) Dundovic(Swan) roy(mans)
R:Kenneugh(Ech) Barlow (Unt) Priest(ben)
INT: Kirkman(swan/ky) Montague(roch) Hiscock(shep) Cutriss(roch)

probably wanting guys in that have been developed in this league for more for either a few years or most of their careers.
so guys like mick hare, tweedle ive left out..
and also guys who are between 18 and 22, so left out guys like martinello and shehan.
also guys like tonizzo,kirkby,Bovalino and james martinello who have left the league this season miss..
and nick allens to old
if ive left anyone out, shout it out, also unsure with ricky joyce and pappins age, think they are both 22 though.
i believe this sides lacking a decent CHF and promonent ruckman, chapmans prob only a forward flanker, Kirkby would been the ideal choice at CHF. Possibly Van Shaik if he was still around too..
Solid backline though!

[Big Kim]

Fair call but in regards to williams and watts, they might not well known outside of the seymour footy club but are held in high regard by the coach and others around the club. A bit unfair on russo, won a 2's b&f last year in a good team and has done extremely well since being promoted to the 1's and i would say has played better in the first five games this year then G. Liddell did all last year in the same spot.

Dom Russo is an awesome player. Not sure I'd say he's done better in the first 5 games than Gezza though. They're different types of players. But it's been noticeable that one of the main areas Seymour has dropped off in this year is toughness. ie Mark Philling's agression. But also, Gezza's intensity. He was unbelievable at applying forward pressure, chasing opposition backmen down and keeping the ball in the forward line.
Luckily for Seymour the standard of the whole GV has dropped off this year. For the first 4 rounds they were able to get away with not applying so much pressure. But against United this was one area they were clearly exposed in.

[tonysgone]

i think benalla will be in good form tomorro with young gun in Farran Priest back in the side from vic try outs laast week, should turn it on!

Simple maths, if a side thats won the last two GV flags has blokes playing in the seniors that couldnt get a game when they were winning flags, then the team (comp) has slipped.
Williams would not get a game in a good KD team, he is lazy and doesnt chase defensively. Stop pumping his chest out like his brother and start pumping the klms out on the track.

When Dom has two premiership medals around his neck every body can stop hanging sh*t on Gezza. This site has gone to the dogs, U all talk absolute sH*t.

Well you definately need to get your eyes examined. As I said, Euroa made a Grand Final 2 years ago, so obviously no fighting that year. I totally disagree with you in regards to fighting within the team. How can they play the game amongst themselves when there is 18 players on a footy ground?

Whilst the competition standard may be a bit lower than the last couple of years, it's not simple maths at all to say a young bloke like Russo has only got a game because of that. Is it possible that he may have worked harder on his fitness, improved his football to find himself a spot in the side? Of course it is.

Remember, there were players on Brisbane's list that didn't play in their first flag but they made their way into the side the next year to play in the competition's best side.

Not sure if its absolute sh!t mate, im sure many people will say Gezza was probably a little lucky to get a gig in the senior grand final last year. His form throughout the year was below par for a guy with his roll, and dom russo got 40+ possy's and kicked 5 goals in numerous twos games late in the season, but the coaches wanted to stick with what they had.

Your point is valid, at the end of the day, Gezza got a senior medal, Dom didn't. But if you saw a large portion of the Seymours seniors and reserves last year, which it sounds as if you didn't, you would take back what you said.

Dom Russo would have played Seniors at 10 other clubs last year. And im sure if you get to see him play, you will re-think your opinion of the little guy.

FBP last I heard you're living in WA these days. So when have you seen Dom play this year? Sure you saw him play ressies last year, but when have you seen him play seniors this year?
Big difference between senior and reserves footy.

Speaking of luck though. How the hell did Lockie Peterson get a game in the Seymour Reserves P'ship team?

[Grandale]

Great side .. as i said i wasn't sure on a lot of people's ages when i named my side.

Didn't realise Van Reit, Pappin, Kirkman, ubergang and dundovic were that young.
I reckon Rocket might just be a little bit too old. I remember playing seniors with him in 2002 when I reckon he was in the last year of 3rds.

They made their way into those sides when gaps appeared, jus as gaps have appeared on Seymours list.
UMMMMM lets see, Pilling V Russo. Gordon V Russo. Douglas V Russo.
And before you cr*p on and say hes a small man, I am making my point that "holes" have appeared... "IT IS SIMPLE MATHS"

Take it easy tiger and don't hop on here and make assumptions on what I may or may not say in reply to your response. No need for me to crap on, plenty of others on here do enough of that.

Of course gaps can and do appear in lists, but you are missing the point of my post entirely. Players can and do improve, other players form may wane.

[Grandale]

Was speakin to rodney at uni today mate, said your are right he did play seniors in 2002 but was only 16 and informs me that he only turned 22 this year so can still be considered under 22

I stand corrected. You'd think he'd be a walk-up start for a spot in a GV under-22 side then.

[jazzy]

I think anyone who watched the Seymour seniors and reserves last year would agree gezza was extremely lucky all year to keep his spot, surely 7 goals or thereabouts isn't enough output from a small forward in anyones book. Dom Russo would have that already this year and kicked 3 on the weekend.

I do agree also with the standard having slipped this year a little, but still so good standard of football being played. :thumbsu:

Ok ill have a crack at this side now.. which is just an interest thing, no inter-league matches or that.


B:Carrol (Unt) Pappin (Roch) Joyce(ben)

FF:Montgomery(Swan) Dundovic(Swan) roy(mans)
R:Kenneugh(Ech) Barlow (Unt) Priest(ben)
INT: Kirkman(swan/ky) Montague(roch) Hiscock(shep) Cutriss(roch)

probably wanting guys in that have been developed in this league for more for either a few years or most of their careers.
so guys like mick hare, tweedle ive left out..
and also guys who are between 18 and 22, so left out guys like martinello and shehan.
also guys like tonizzo,kirkby,Bovalino and james martinello who have left the league this season miss..
and nick allens to old
if ive left anyone out, shout it out, also unsure with ricky joyce and pappins age, think they are both 22 though.
i believe this sides lacking a decent CHF and promonent ruckman, chapmans prob only a forward flanker, Kirkby would been the ideal choice at CHF. Possibly Van Shaik if he was still around too..
Solid backline though!
how old is brett deledio?? he played for ky, if hes u22 surely hed be in there

FBP last I heard you're living in WA these days. So when have you seen Dom play this year? Sure you saw him play ressies last year, but when have you seen him play seniors this year?
Big difference between senior and reserves footy.

Speaking of luck though. How the hell did Lockie Peterson get a game in the Seymour Reserves P'ship team?

Mate, i've seen enough senior footy and senior players to know who is good enough and who is not. Dom is a very good player who works very hard. And when good mates of mine tell me he is going really well. And the radio commentators say he is going really well.

Plus last year he played about 4 or 5 games last year and was more than capable.

As for Lockie, why wouldn't he get a game? He is 6"3' who can fill any position, up forward, down back. Not to mention the fact that he did the hard yards over the past 3 years on and off the track.

Yeah, he was probably in the final 2 picked. But the captain and vice captain both wanted him in there, as did Ben Davey and the other coaching staff...so they must have thought he was good enough. Why don't you ask them. I didn't pick the side.

Who deserved a game infront of him?

What are you doing with yourself these days???

Ask yourself this question mate. Why did Gezza liddell leave? He still lives in seymour, works in Seymour. Maybe because he thought his position was under threat by Dom.

I do know he had a falling out with habers. Can't say what over. But maybe it was because habers thought Dom would take his spot? There is no point comparing Dom to any of the players above. its silly, you know it, as does everyone else. Compare Dom to Gezza liddell, Gezza has held his spot for a few years. But IMO, Dom would have had the small crumbing forward spot this year. Gezza probably new it, so took a good offer in the murray league.

These folks are representing you lot at the liest level, and you all should be proud of their efforts. Many big leagues (Ballarat, West Gippsland La Trobe, Eastern FL, THE WHOLE OF SOUTH AUSTRALIA!) aren't represented at all, so these guys are making a hefty imprint on the virtual footballing community!! Maybe a quick visit to their match threads to talk 'em up and can their opponents wouldn't be out of order?

(If you are on this list, and there is a x in front of your name, this means you are yet to even read the private message I sent about picking a guernsey number. It means you probably aren't aware of the season in progress, and your club needs you!)

I'm disappointed about all this hype on Dom Russo.. i havnt seen him play much but i had the pleasure of tagging him 4 a half when rochy got pumped by seymour a few rounds ago and he had 1 disposal for a half and that was a goal that was a handball from saad in the goal square... so basically he got 1 gimmy and that was it....

First of all - Saad doesn't handball.
Secondly - dirty must think your a good tagger if you can shut Russo down.:rolleyes: Reckon he'd be more worried about the likes of Scanlon, Stevenson, Van Riet, Haberman or Liddel wouldn't he.

without doubt dirt was worried about those other blokes more than russo. but russo is the type of player who can lurk and might get himself those cheap goals as a small forward if hes roming round the forward line without an opponent. i think utility probably meant to say he played on russo and dom didnt get a touch.

personaly i too beleive that there is too much hype on this kid, because at one end of the scale he is being talked up as the next big thing. and at the other end there is talk of whether he should even be playing senior footy. it sounds to me as if bias seymour people over rate him, whereas unbias spectators/opponents realise he's not much to talk about other than a handy 2's player.

Not sure if we were talking about my claim to fame. I wouldn't have any claims to any fame in the football circles. Scream my guts out at my team mates??? Not sure where you got that from?

I'm sure Mr Fox Hat could confirm Gezza was a little lucky considering Dom's form last year. He could probably confirm the reasons behind him leaving and his spat with Bernie Haberman.

Got word of this one a fortnight or so back from a former Lion (excellent mail mate :thumbsu: )

Collins signing a boon for Hawks

By Rob Harris

May 25 2007
Shepparton News

Former Melbourne grand final player and Seymour premiership star Matt Collins has joined Barooga in a major mid-season coup for the Murray Football League premiership aspirant.

Collins, who played 43 games for Adelaide and Melbourne, is expected to line-up for the Hawks when they next take to the field against Tongala in round 10.

Hawks coach Matt Byers confirmed the star's signature yesterday, giving credit to his teammate Gerard Liddell for coaxing the dangerous forward out of retirement.

"It's pretty exciting actually and I think it's going to help our side a lot," Byers said.

"We went down and met with him on Tuesday night and he's really keen to come on board, which is great.

"Gerard Liddell obviously became pretty good mates with him while they were together at Seymour and he's been nagging away at him I think."

Collins joined Seymour alongside 10 ex-AFL/VFL players in 2004 and spent two injury-interrupted seasons with the Goulburn Valley club before retiring last year.

His underachieving career was cursed with bad luck, missing many matches through injury.

He had chronic arm and wrist complaints at the Demons, as well as a broken leg and bad back.

When he did get it all right, Collins, 27, was a key defender in Melbourne's 2000 grand final team, keeping Essendon star Scott Lucas quiet on the grand stage of the MCG.

"I just think his experience to pass on to the young guys and even some of the older guys is going to be fantastic," Byers said.

With successive byes, the Hawks have the chance to get full-forward Sean Harrap (AC joint), midfielder David Tough (hamstring) and Liddell (ankle) right before their next game on June 9.

But rules are rules and if tim looby wasnt supposed to play thems are the breaks. but after hearing the news on the ruling of the allocation of points, was there a leak of news that lead to this situation.
And just a query have many clubs done it over the years?

I think the main thing in this case is that the GVFL passed and signed off on the rego of Looby so the Swans have done everything right and above board. It is interesting that the VCFL can impose a penalty on the Swans when they didn't do anything wrong, it seems it was an admin error from the GVFL league its self.

not sure but has the qestion been asked did money change hands btween looby and pt melb,if so where the swans aware of it, also if money did change hands does this make the contract more binding, not sure just asking the question

My source told me that Port promised to find Looby a job when he joined from SA, but when they didn't he decided to go back to Shepp, because the Swans would do what Port hadn't.

Not sure if any money changed hands.

While i'm not a big swans fan or the way they go about things, they went by the book and it does look like an admin error by the GV and therefor they shouldn't be penalised.

Also i know a hundred cases of club playing ineligible players under false names etc ..

Alan Sutherland (spelling) was on fm 98.5 this morning giving the Swans side of events. Was quite interesting to hear. In summary Looby had signed a contract with Port Melb but was not registered, there was an amount for a bond outstanding and he as soon as he heard wanted to drive from Shepp to Port Melb to sort it out but Port weren't interested. They are appealing and they felt that the league (VCFL) didn't appoint a fair tribunal bench as the advocate who is suppose to offer advice to the clubs of the league was the chair along with his two mate who all traveled together. The club had advice from a Solicitor that there was no case to answer as too the advice given to the league. They are prepared to fight the matter in court if they feel they haven't had a fair hearing.

if you expect me to name a hundred then you're kidding yourself. I used it as a round figure.

You can't tell me that you don't know of any.

It happens all the time in two's footy, where you get a mate of a player to fill in cause you're short and they play under another blokes name.

I've done it myself down on the peninsula .. (no point in signing up a bloke who can't get a kick in a karate fight.)

Interesting story out of Rochester:

Tigers sitting in sixth position
May 29 2007
Campaspe News

After round six, Rochester is sitting in sixth spot on the Goulburn Valley Football League ladder with a three and three win/loss ratio.
On Saturday, they face the undefeated Shepparton United at Deakin Reserve and a loss could see them drop out of the six.

The Tigers have yet to play to their full potential for more than a quarter each game.

The Tigers' forward structure has the ability to kick winning scores, if the ball gets into the forward line quickly and effectively.

With Elliot Bowen, Anthony McPhee, Phil Lobb and Clint Whitsed up forward, the Tigers have the necessary marking power and body strength to test any Goulburn Valley team.

The Tigers need to get it right further up the field, around the stoppages and centre bounces and across half back.

If the ripplings are right that Sammy Brennan will be back in the Tigers colours within weeks, it could not come at a better time and it would change the structure of the line-up.

In the games the Tigers have lost, they have had trouble around the stoppages and centre bounces.

Brennan would go a long way in changing this and give the onballers and midfielders first use of the ball, allowing quick delivery into the potent forward structure.

Ben Anderson has worked tirelessly in the ruck but needs support and the Tigers need strength and aggression once the ball hits the turf.

The Tigers have classy, fast and elusive onballers in Ash Watson, Dean Moon, Heath Aitken and Scott Hann and, once the ball can be cleared away from the packs, all have the skill and ability to carve up opposition sides.

Rochester may look at adding more pace in their back half to assist Oliver, who is having a consistent season.

The Tigers must settle the back six fairly quickly and allow the players to gain knowledge and confidence in each other.

Daniel Schmidt has missed the past two games with an injury and there is no doubt the Tigers have missed him.

Schmidt is a ball carrier, along with Nick Knight and Matt Hyden.

The Tigers have some players who are down on confidence and they need to take some risks.

Confidence will come if they are prepared to take their opportunities and work hard with aggression, hard running and effective use of the football.

The Tigers need to dare their opposition players to match their attacking game plan.

[Rushy Tiger]

If Brennan played that would be as big a pick up as Ash Watson or Ben Anderson. The bloke just bleeds for the footy club and has a massive heart. Would be great to see him back at tigerland. Possibly one of the best ruckmen going around in last few years if i have my facts right?

I seriously doubt you are Ian Wrigglesworth. He lives in the Sale region and why would he be commentinon the GVFL.
By the way Ian played cricket for Victoria and was a Premier Cricket bitch, playing with at least 4 clubs.

Surely a bloke could have the same name. I know of 2 people that went to my high school who had the same name. There was about 3 or 4 years in between them, but both had the same christian and surnames.

I can guaranty my name is Ian Wrigglesworth, Im not afraid of people knowing my name. I do not live in the Sale region, I live in the Western Suburbs of Victoria in Altona. I have never bowled a cricket ball in my life. I know a fair bit about all football leagues as I tend to watch and do a bit of research on each league.

another win today boss how did the game unfold

Sorry undercover been on holidays and me writing this post, means I will be late for training at Arden St tonight. The game against Shep was a very tough hard fought game. Was good to get another win on the board and hopefully we can back it up against Tatura this week. Unfortunately for us, it was Ben Sheltons last game of the year.

European adventure - Borat style

Shelts left last Thursday and was heading to US for the 1st 3 weeks of his trip, then to the bahamas for a couple of weeks finally settling down over in Europe. Will be gone for roughly 8 months. He definately does look like Borat and I feel sorry for all the ladies that will be harrassed by this specimen that looks like Pete Sampras, Borat and ANdy Beckett of the movie philidelphia. His tour is called "Booty Hunter World Tour..."

O and M takes the honours as late GV charge just falls short
By DAVID JOHNSTON

THE Ovens and Murray was able to hang on and record the tightest victory in inter-league clashes against arch-rival Goulburn Valley at the Norm Minns Oval yesterday.

The 20th encounter between the country footy heavyweights rested on a kick for goal after the siren by GV defender Tim Hooper, which came up short and presented the O and M with an epic three-point victory.

In 2000 the O and M’s golden run of four successive championships was brought to an end by a 12-point win to the GV, but no match had been decided by less than a goal until the visitors stormed back from 24 points down at the last change to almost snatch an unlikely victory.

For the most part the O and M was the superior outfit and led at half-time by 25 points following a game breaking seven-minute burst late in the second quarter.

The GV clawed its way back and closed to within six points before Marcus McMillan stepped up for the O and M.

He kicked two goals, one from a set shot and the other from a snap in tight confines, but his vision and awareness to find resting ruckman Brendan Page in the clear 25m out from goal underlined his star quality.

Page made no mistake with the set shot and the O and M had wrested back the control at the long break.

The brilliance of Kade Stevens (38 possessions) and Xavier Leslie (34), including 19 handballs, in the midfield and a water-tight defence of Matt Wollington, Daniel Leslie and Aydan Brown had set the tone early for the O and M.

The O and M was able to blanket the GV’s major avenues to goal and was relieved to see Matt Forys start the game in defence opposed to McMillan.

The O and M made a flying start with two goals each to Lee Schmidt and Tim Hargreaves, but their impact for the remainder of the game was minimal.

Apart from the final stages of the second term, the GV defence of Jeff Anderson, Matthew Pascoe, Matt O’Keefe and Hooper prevented the O and M forwards from blowing the game totally apart.

Colin Durie, Paul Scanlon and Michael Barlow also had their moments in the midfield with Scanlon igniting the GV fightback in the final term.

The margin was reduced to 12 points with early goals to Forys and Saad Saad, but a timely goal to Lance Oswald restored some breathing space for O and M.

Oswald’s younger bro-ther Scott Oswald also rose to the occasion in the pressure-cooker encounter to be a stand-out player in defence.

But his decision to play on after taking a courageous mark resulted in a free kick and goal to the surging GV.

The margin was suddenly six points with Sam Dawes kicking another goal from a tight angle.

The O and M had lost its ascendancy in the middle of the ground with Stevens surprisingly starting the final quarter on the bench and Tim Little becoming an influential player in the ruck for GV.

Page was replaced in the ruck by Kirby midway through the term, but the Lavington player worked his way onto the end of a bouncing ball to kick a crucial goal.

But the GV kept coming with Scanlon, Barlow and Hooper prominent and when Saad kicked his third for the term the GV was within three points.

“They just used the ball, the ground and the space more effectively,” GV coach Richard Warburton said.

“They set up and rebounded off half-back from the start, whereas we got to half-time before we played smart footy.

“We didn’t react and we put a lot of pressure on ourselves.

“It was disappointing we couldn’t steal the game in the end.”

I was just reading the EDFL thread and noticed that they have done a top 50 players who are currently playing. Would be interested to know who people would have and wouldnt have in their top 50. Doesnt have to be in any order. But it could create a good talking point.
