Anakie will be even worse than last year if that is possibille!!!
They have lost last years captain and about the only bloke who had a dip in Matty Dean, they have also lost the the ruckman Birdy and a good on baller in coy. As bad as Anakie were last year it was through no fault of these blokes who could at least get it out of the guts

Do you play there or something Kooley?! Because from what I saw they were the only blokes who could get a kick. The rest of them there are dead wood who have have been there for 4 yeras or more and have done nothing to better themselves or the club.
As i've said previously the only half decent player going there is D. INNELLA.
The rest are no good just like the blokes down there

Fair enough, i was suprised they both left after one year. i know they both looked at it as a 2 year thing with the view to try to recruit well this year but the players at the club who have been there for a couple of years made no effort to improve themselves or to make these blokes feel welcome. i know shannon suggested to the club that they look at playing half their home games at little rivers ground which is not used on saturdays during winter. this may have attracted more players and supporters but the club refused to entertain the thought. narrow mindedness i think

They have picked up some good players in Jade Gercovic and also Mark Henry, who I think played Falcons in 99 and played a bit of senior footy at Joeys, however, they are on the verge of losing Marcus Forbes to Leopold... Also heard that the Christian Shaw leaving North Shore isn't over with rumours he may return to Bannockburn and take a few players with him like Tom Hall.

Thanks I knew him when he was at Nth Ballarat under Jim Buckley in 92 and 93. He didn't come across as a bloke who would take the money and run but hey at North then there were lots of players that earnt lots of good money.

St Albans beat Newcomb by 29 points yesterday. We had quite a few out still so hopefully we can improve on that. GFL opposition in Leopold this week will be a whole different Kettle of Fish.
Even though it was a practice match it's great to get a win! Newcomb seemed very unfit but even so we played a lot better compared to the week before
Interesting, re their fitness, backing up after a flag is always tough in regards to motivation.
In other games i know Geelong Amateurs were 10 goals up on West Saints at half time, about 11 goals to 1.

He wasn't scary as a coach. Took it easy on us because we are so young I guess. I know there were times he wanted to let rip but he didn't. One of my mates who plays in the ressies said he belts everyone on the field when he plays because he played a few ressies games.

Gee that is great news. Might show we have improved a bit. We nearly beat West Saints twice last year so Hopefully this year they are one of the teams we can grab a win off
They (West) were pretty ordinary, but then again its only a practise match. Plenty of time yet before teh season starts. Thats when we really know who is up and running.
Sth Barwon easy winners over Bell Park, and can anybody verify was that Luke Buckland and his brother Trent playing for South Barwon, very impressed with them both, Is Trent to old for the Falcons or is this another Mick Turner blunder.

Luke actually spent the last 2 years as a rookie at Geelong and got cut this season so i dont think he will be back. And he is playing for Sth Barwon.
As for his brother Trent i dont know if he did or didnt play for Sth on the weekend but he will need a clearence from Geelong Amateurs and he hasnt put in for one yet. I wouldnt get to exited about him, yes he can play but is very immature and will sook off if the going gets a bit tough. He did that last year at Ammos, so at a higher level i dont think he has the committment to do well. But there is no doubt he can play, and he knows it. From what i hear didnt want to put in the hard work at the Falcons so therefore wasnt required. Good young player but be wary.

Macpop, have you just opened a can of worms!? I wouldn't mind hearing peoples opinions on the Falcons and even drop some names of players who should've played for Falcons?
I believe Reece Woods should've been on the original list last year instead of being invited down when the half a dozen or so players were trying out for Victoria. Luckily he has been noticed and is playing state footy in South Australia.
Andrew Baars is another one that was invited down. Was concidered good enough for the original list (Good knock on the weekend by the way Baarsy.. 84 and 6/60 odd in a Granny is a great effort)

Yeah I agree on Reece Woods, he looked like he could play from what I saw of him in the GFL. Do you think the decision he has made has been the best one for his footy career? I don't know all the details but isn't he old enough to play falcons? Didn't they want him? Surely he'd have more chance getting drafted through the normal system? Is he getting senior games seeing he is playing against men? I mean he has played men in the GFL but it doesn't compare to the SANFL.
Turned 18 last year Sticko so he could've actually played in the TAC Cup as one of the Under 19's. The new law says that two Under 19's can now play in the TAC Cup but Andrew Banjamin and your fellow team mate Adam Marsland have taken those two positions. Probaly a good choice by Reece to go to the SANFL. A big challenge for him but it will teach him a lot and he will become better for it. We should keep an eye on him this year along with the Bolton's who also went over to the SANFL.

Thats just a cheep attack at St. Albans 18's. Its harder to show off your skills in a under achieving team because you don't get the ball as much. By the way, take into consideration that he did play Interleague last year and then was selected to play for West Victoria so his skills mustn't be too bad....

Your original post was questioning his skill level... not his attitude towards the game. However, your right in saying that his attitude is another thing. I think his attitude has changed this year due to being offered to have a good crack at the big leagues.
P.S. Have nothing to do with St. Albans FC, I just rate Adam as a footballer.

Any news from the first round of GDFL?
GFL and BFL start this week.
I thought Werribee would be a very dominant team this year and they probably will be but I wasnt expecting them to go down to Thomson by that much. Thomson do look very good with Gerca and Henry in their midfield now.
Anakie started well but had to considering the huge expectations they have put on themselves. Great game this week coming up against Corio. I think seven players from Corio shifted this year to Anakie. Will be very interesting....
Corio was probably the suprise packet for the round. Lost a lot of players in the off season and Geelong West looked to be the goods with some good players in the mix of their recruiting. Interesting to note though that the reserves result was 80 points in Wests way so either Corio don't have much depth or West have plenty of it.
Good start for Sheeds and the Banno boys on the weekend. Thought their wouldn't be much goal kicking power since Tom Mullane-Grant went to Ballan but obviously they found different avenues. Good away win for the Tiges...
East went alright against Winch with a 30 point victory. These two teams will probably fight for the 5th position come september. East looks like the better structed team but its incouraging that Winch's goals came from multiple players.
Belmont Lions had a great start as well... Luckily for North Geelong the Lions didn't kick straight. Ben Johnson and co-coach Brad Edwards will be huge players for them this year. Could possibly have the best midfield (along with Thomson) in the comp.
Time will tell..........

Gee i reckon the Anakie v Corio match could be worth the price of entry. After Anakie grabbed a heap of Corio players they wont be happy and will be determined to show them they should have stayed. Also Corio coach Daryl Bisset is a legend out Anakie way and is against his old club.
I suspect it will be on for young and old. If i could i might have even popped out for a look could be worth it if you like on field violence. LOL

Sorry if your a fan of the GDFL Hulkster but I find they have their fair share of fights as it is! This week's game will be a cracker though if you want to see some violence. I wonder if Bisso would jump in on the fight himself. Interestingly he got a clearance (i think we cleared him) so obviously he is considering playing
He would have needed to have been cleared to coach...You can't be a registered player at one club and coach another.

Inverleigh very dissapointing on the weekend. Showed some promise though young prendergast is a class above, trotter still has it and that JC fellow showed some poise down back. Interesting to see how they hold up against winch this week though. Good to see Jase Quinlivian in the goals early to, until Tatey took care of that. If Inverleigh want to win and play finals this year young prendergast has to play onball. With him, trotter, nairn and armo thats a pretty formidable centre line. Not to mention JC down back holding things together, with quina on song up forward. Well thats just my opinion. Couple of big losses over the summer to though, orzo and collo gone along with judd. Also whats goin on with Nick Farr? Just let the poor bloke go! all he wants to do is play footy! who cares who its for! Anyway hope the hawks have a good year get behind snake and trotts! Prendergast for the double league and club B&F's!

Also Aaron Jervies from North Shore, this kid is a freak! Definate senior player, no doubt he'll hurt a few clubs this year from the wing! That practice match against Bell Park, superb! All the way Jerve's!
Would you lick that for money?
Can anyone tell me about the Belmont v North Geelong game on the weekend. Are Belmont on the improve?

I thought there would be more GFL chat this week seeing round 1 is this weekend. What are people's thoughts on this weekends games?
Lara V Bell Park
Colac v South Barwon
North Shore v Leopold
Newtown & Chilwell v St Marys
I can't say I have been talking much about the GFL this season with anyone but from what I have heard Bell Park will be strong. I personally think South Barwon will be which isn't much of a big statement after last year. I saw Luke Buckland at deakin so maybe he really is playing at South Barwon?
Newtown v St Marys should be an interesting game
Luke Buckland is definantly playing for South.
My tips FWIW
Bell Park
South
Nth Shore
St Marys
Should be a fairly even comp this year, a number of teams have a chance to win flag. South, Newtown, St Marys, Bell Park all in with a shot.
How are St. Joey's shaping up this season? Who are the players to look out for in their Easter Thursday Night Clash?

Heard Tom Hall has been cleared and will line up for Colac Imperials tomorrow. Apparently he's only $80 a game, playing for the jumper. Just wants to play with McVilly. Not much $ left after McVilly signed up.

From the CDFL website. True not cleared as yet. The 600 per game would not surprise me.

Probably not quite as strong as the other sides i mentioned this year. But still a reasonable side though. Just not a flag contender. IMO.
Nth Shore have a culture to envy, but I agree with Hulkster that they may fall a bit short this year:thumbsu:

Beck and Hall are nothing but money hungry little grubs, they alone will be costing imps 25 grand

Why would you say Nth Shore will just fall short and aint up there with Sth Barwon, St Marys and Newtown etc, they only lost Gibbs and Andjelcovic who are only good G&DFL players anyway. The have picked up some very handy recruits who will definitely fill their shoes and some more so i think there is no reason why they wont finish in the top 3 again this year. Remember they finished on top last year and just ran out of legs in the last quarter of the prliminary final, but showed they were a class above Newtown and would have gave a better showing than them in the Grand Final. If anyone is going to beat Sth Barwon it will be North Shore. My side Lara looks like we will struggle again this year, lost too many (Barwon Heads) and haven't picked up enough quality players to replace them. Beck and Hall are nothing but money hungry little grubs, they alone will be costing imps 25 grand (how true) i have heard they wont be welcome back at Nt Shore again (especially hall)

Back to the footy lads.
I think most results on the weekend went according to plan. But the one that didnt was Geelong Amateurs thrashing Torquay. I had Torquay pinned for a big push at the flag his year. Ammos have lost a lot of players and i didnt think would get near Torquay but they won by 85 points! Interesting stuff. And Ocean Grove were a bit unlucky not to beat Newcomb i think they were in front at quarter time.

Heard a whisper on saturday night at the eureka that Nick Daffy might be pulling on the boots for blue west in the gdfl at some stage this year!
The Hulkster
12 Apr 2006, 15:36
Blue West!!!!!! You must be kidding. Sure it wasnt Red West. Cant really see Daffy playing in the GDFL. A pretty boy like that would not survive a game against an Anakie or Corio.
Good rumour though rocky.
