Ugly,

Like the other posters, the players you have mentioned are playing everywhere from Cairns to Zeehan next year it seems!
The major focus at Brindisi Street is to continue the development of our squad of players that are our 2007 senior and U/19 playing list which have been and are our strength and will continue to step up...we are in age terms a young group which should stand us well looking ahead...and we all know U/19's coming through your own club are the key...obviously we are working so we add to it and believe we can...no names as yet!

I believe that MHSOB won C, then B and were runners up in A somewhere in the late 60's-early 70's from memory.

If my memory is correct I beleive Mazenod went from D (now I think D3) to A in just 7 years, I'm not quite sure but I think that's what happened.

I think because the original rumour has them going to join their old St Kilda buddy Aussie Jones (somewhere down Narre Warren way if i remember correctly).

Subsequent rumours now have those two linked together no matter what team is substituted into it.

Frankly, after a combined total of 25-odd seasons of AFL footy, and with Smith deeply involved in the equine industry, I doubt these two guys have turned their minds to the topic of which suburban or amateur football club they want to play with in 2008. Unless it's a case of a player returning to their former club to play/coach (eg. Justin Peckett at Karingal) these sorts of decisions wouldn't be made for several months.

Let's wait until March 2008 when the recently retired AFL lads would consider pulling a boot on again.

Bulleen-Templestowe also had a similar rise from the lowest VAFA grade to A-grade in about 7-8 years in the 1980's as well.

I'm pretty sure that Old Melbournian's were runners up in C, won B then A in a three year period. Was that in the early to mid 90's i think.

In '89 OH won C Grade by about 15 goals, then in '90 won B Grade by 20 goals, then finished 5th in A grade '91 and played finals in '92

OMs won C grade in 1988, were runners up in B in 1993, won A grade in 1994.

Hampton Rovers were the first team to win premierships in the top four grades. The Rovers won D section in 1939, C in 1946, B in 1947, and reached the pinnacle of VAFA football by winning the A Section flag in 1951 by defeating Ormond. The '51 premiership is memorable for two reasons; one because with one game to go in the home & away round, the Rovers weren't given much of a hope of making the finals yet they got there; and two, when the Rovers won the grand final on the last kick of the day, the Ormond trainer was so disappointed with his team's loss that according to the official VAFA history book For the Love of the Game, 'he slapped the umpire across the face with his towel and earned himself 12 months.' I wonder what the VAFA tribunal (or investigations) would have done to the Ormond trainer if it had happened today?

Not to mention 4 x A-grade flags on the trot (1946-1949)

Great to be back in A grade, where we belong!

Not here to make up the numbers either....
Hate to tell you but we refer to the different divisions as Sections, not grades, thats for the ferals in the EDFL.

Couldn't agree more UD. No problems with blokes with affiliations or blokes who are just keen to play, but there is nothing more pathetic than a former elite athlete playing ammo footy for selfish gain. Fotunately there aren't too many in our ranks and lets hope it stays that way. I wonder how many Hailebury 06 players will front for the 10 year reunion?

If someone can locate and post that wicked chase scene where Utah trails Bodhi through houses, backyards, etc after the robbery, and then tweaks his knee, that'd do it for me.

Best chase ever.
(well certainly since Steve McQueen's car chase in Bullitt)

In the top 3.

My personal fave is the boat chase in James Bond's Live & Let Die through the swamps of Louisana.

Warchild....this is my board....run along and hangout with your friend Bunker or else i'll kick your ass again like i did with Bodhi at Latigo Beach!

Two best scenes without doubt are:

#1 - Night time football scene:

What the **** is wrong with you? Don't you think that's a little out of line?
- Cool it, Roach. Know who this is? - No, l don't!
This is Johnny Utah, Ohio State Buckeyes, all conference. Remember?
Number 9 man, how ya doing?
Jesus Christ! Johnny ****in' Utah! Sorry, man. Didn't mean to get in ya face!
l knew l knew you. lt was the Rose Bowl. Three years ago you beat SC.
- You? You did this? - Yep, him!
- That was one hell of a game. - No shit.
Yeah, but you got nuked in the last quarter.
Yeah, l got my knee folded back about 90 degrees the wrong way!
- Whoa! That's why you never went pro? - Two years of surgery, missed my window.
Went to law school instead.
Law school! You're a lawyer?
Wow!
Well, life's not over yet, man. You're surfing.
Lawyers don't surf! - (Bodhi) This one does.

#2 - Harp's office.

Special Agent Utah, this is not some job flipping burgers at the local drive-in!
Yes, the surfboard bothers me.
Yes, your approach to this whole damn case bothers me.
And, yes, YOU BOTHER ME!
And, Pappas, for the love of Christ,...
..just how the hell did l ever let you talk me into this boneheaded idea?
Harp, we're working undercover. lt takes time. We've produced...
No, no, no, no! Let me tell you what you've produced.
Over the last two weeks you two have produced exactly squat.
SQUAT!
During which time the Ex-Presidents have robbed two more banks!
Now, for Christ's sake,...
..does either one ofyou have anything even remotely interesting to tell me?
Caught my first tube this morning,... sir!

These two scenes follow directly after each other and have to be the best 5 minutes of cinema EVER!

Via con dios.

Bodhi and Johnny Utah - it will be held on Sandringham Beach at sunset. Mick Fanning and Kelly Slater to umpire :thumbsu:

What has become of this thread...hoedads and grommets, wanna be Mitch Buchanans and a world of Gary Buseys, Jan Michael Vincents and William Katts. Big Wedenesday is the quintessential surf movie. SMG would have to be Gerry Lopez, Brian would be Matt, TBP Jack and Jascave Leroy. Give me Big Wednesday any day of the week, now that is an epci flick maaan.
Can any of you dudes find it on you tube, especially the fish scene? Would be stoked...

"proud and successful First Division Club"

If you were that proud and successful you wouldn't be trolling the big footy forums trying to pick up players...

Pretty obvious TBP, under the Sholly rule they are free to poach whereas in the past they might have expected a firm rebuff, not only from the cognoscenti but also from players who wouldn't want to be seen talking to them.

Even before the Sholley Rule there were players being poached and players coming and going. It just didn't happen as much.

I would have thought a post like that shows what is right about the VAFA. It's a fairly desperate post, and as Ultimate Hater posted earlier it shows a lack of professionalism. You won't find any VAFA clubs stooping to that level.

Quite suprised that none of the a grade ammo clubs have bandied around the name "b cousins" as yet....surely the VAFA would be a safe haven for him to bide his time for 12 months.

Can of worms.

collegians would only go for him if he had kids, that way they could offer the services of their feeding school as a carrot... I'm sure the future cousins kids would feel right at home at wesley and teach them the basics to be able to follow in the old man's footsteps of late..

yes. can of worms..

River man he has been suspended for 12 months therfore can not play any level of football in that time. So your point is null and void

Incorrect - the decision made yesterday only prevents him from playing in the AFL in 2008. He is entitled to be registered to play in other competition in the land, including the WAFL.

Mate it just shows that A & B Section footy is very much a goldmine for cashed up suburban clubs. 5 years ago, these clowns wouldn't have even bothered.
I sat near about 3 or 4 recruiters at the A Grade Granny. They were sittting there taking notes with their ****ing club T Shirts on! If a kid like Joel Rice gets picked up by the WAFL, that is fantastic. If his team-mate gets picked up by Donvale, that is a TRAVESTY and spells the end of the competition.
