I see that there is a Scott Adams cleared from Nathalia. Does anybody know if this is the same Scott Adams that played full back for them a few years ago. Must have come out of retirement.

Doubt it very much grac he played at Stanhope a few years back and played 2's.
[QUOTE=hank1;6824630]Couldnt be bothered explaining so here it is.
Harro hows Purce looking.?
Still pumping weights.?
Does his mate C.J Malone still play.? If so did u have a crack at getting him over your way.? Very good junior, played bushies, but crook knee as he got older didnt help his cause.
Plus likes the sauce.
Perc looking very good, been training with us Monday and Fridays, very fit as well as keeping up with his weights regime.
CJ is still running around at Golden Square, lived with him in 2002 when we both played there, yes he does like the sauce and obviously started very young with his rendition of The Gambler wasnt it after one of the Nagambie flags when he was 16. Believe he has settled down a little, no didnt have a crack at him this year, did last year but Golden Square are going all out to knock off Gisborne this year so he will be keen to be a part of that.
You looking at going around again or have any role to play?

Haha, hope I don't run into you two this weekend then. Yeah no idea with Sage, what a good reason it was for Tonny to get out of the GV into the Murray because they couldnt compete with the spending, you'd nearly have to say 2 or 3 clubs are topping the GV boys on that front now.

Too right. Barooga are spending like wildfire. They have so far signed 5 GVFL players, and 1 PDFL player. It would be interesting to see how much they have received from the Barooga Sports Club in the last few years.

At the end of the day. Well done to the town of Barooga to become so self efficient like they have. To be receiving money from the sporties to help the footy club, can't be much wrong with that. Good management i say!
What will your club do as their next money spinner? Have shares in a nightclub/sportsclub? Maybe set up a brothel? :rolleyes: Good fundraiser for the netball club at least!!!

Yeah I agree with you too mate. Barooga is a suprisingly small town compaired to say, Cobram. I bet the Barooga Sports Club will be hoping for a premiership in the next couple of years then.

I havn't seen any of the other MFL grounds besides United and Moama, and both are looking absolutely beautiful. Moama, being in NSW are only on stage 1 water restrictions, where as Echuca are on stage 3 restrictions. The Echuca United oval is still able to be watered due to the fact that the running club train on the oval.

No matter what boots you wear on baroogas ground someone is always going to slip over just try to make sure it is your opponent that goes first.
can any 1 confirm that Josh Bell is leaving Numurkah

I'm not 100% sure on their exact reason but I have heard a couple of things on the grapevine. Mainly that they want to head out of town and play together with their mates with no pressure put on them.
There is no doubt that they are quality players, but United have some handy new players and depth in the reserves to fill the void left by them.

Mate, you'd be surprised how tight the Barooga Sports Club are with the $$$. I can tell you back in the mid 90's they were throwing it about but you can rest assured there are clubs in the Murray League shelling out more than Barooga these days (take Mulwala for example).

Yeah maybe mate, but 5 GVFL players just dont decide to go and play in the lower standard league for a meat pie and a can of coke. Mulwala are also spending a lot of money, but fortunately for them, Mulwala is growing like wildfire and their are plenty of employment opportunities for them to line players up with, as well as the fact the Mulwala is a beautiful place to live.
just wondering what your tip is for the dark horse this season? and any hot favourites in thirds?

In my opinion, the dark horse in the senior competition Congupna and maybe even Tocumwal with a new coach. In the thirds, I would say Finley, Congupna, Mulwala, Echuca United and Tongala will be strong sides, but watch Deniliqiun and Moama as they may cause a few upsets.

Wrong thread mate. Try the Picola District Football League thread. ;)
Roger Toll is tied up with Moama in 2007 and is originally from Gisborne. Could he have something to do with it?
No i don't think so perhaps you should stop bagging ex - president of Gisborne he left on good terms with all players and committee whilst he was president, it maybe some person connected with moama football club who has a relative playing for Gisbonr Senior's who has done all the poaching.

From Mulwala keep your eyes on Thomas Wilson, Dylan Flanagan and Jackson Cooper. For Congupna, their better players include Steele Sidebottom, Chris Dickson and Matthew Pianto. Where are you from mate? Who do you play for?

Settle down, havn't bagged the bloke once. I know him and he's a top bloke. Just trying to find out who is trying to get players from Gisborne, and he was the first person that came to mind seeing he is originally from there.
Do you know who this Moama person is that has a relative from Gisborne seniors or is that just what you think? And you can't say '..all the poaching..' because there is only one Gisborne player who has signed with Moama.

Just some thoughts on Josh Wanganeen from United !? Knew is father when he played for Millicent in the Western Border fl during the mid to late 80's.His father was a hard at it wingman onballer who had gr8 skills, is Josh the same...

Word has it that Josh is playing with Rumba this year after stints at United and Moama, he is working over in Shepp now. Gilbert finished his career at Echuca United in the mid-90's at fullback. Ultra-competitive, hard as nails and a huge leap - used to take hangers over the full forward most weeks. Josh has pace and is skillful enough when he puts his mind to it, played off the half back flank most of last year. Younger brother Corey is a lot more like Gilbert.

Mick Wanganeen is Josh's uncle. Played for Echuca South, I think, but retired before South and east merged to become Echuca United.

Young Rusty Sidebottom is quite a nifty footballer. He's very strong over head and also at ground level and can play almost anywhere. Can be a big handfull for oposition teams if he isn't shut down.
Yes, I can see the Tongala Un. 17's being competitive this year with a lot of middle age players from 2006 stepping up to top age for the 2007 season. Players like Tom Wyatt, Jordan Souter and Jarrad Denham possess a great deal of talent and should lead the boys to a top 6 spot this season.

Thirds do better as a team, to list would give you half their side, that is why they will be strong. Coach is very good at getting the best.

Steele is probably in my opinion the best player for his age in the goulburn valley and he has proved it. you will see alot of him in seniors and thirds this year. he will also be playing representative football.

Oh yes, I wasn't sure whether Luke will still be playing 3rds this season or not. But he will also be a very good player up forward and as a marking option up the ground.

Yeah he is certainly a very good player. The Un.17's team at Congupna are generally a strong side with about 6-7 good quality players each season. Matt Pianto is a similar player to Steele but not as strong at ground level.

I'm not aware of any major weakness'. He isn't the perfect player but he is very very good. From what I have seen from the sidelines and playing against him, he is very head-smart, uses his body well and has good skills on both feet.

I'm pretty sure that Gilbert also played a year or 2 at Gigarre in the KDFL, a very exciting player to watch. Can you or anyone else confirm that he is the uncle of Gavin Wanganeen ?

Yeah but for a club like Tongala who are on the re-building process, they just can't pull money out of no-where to pay 2 very good players every week mate. They obviously would rather have 8 blokes around the club that are there to build a successful club, have some fun and bring about some good culture for the club.
What have you got against Tongala Football Club anyway? Since joining in on discussion on this forum, all you have done is bagged Tongala and gone on about how they wont be any good. If your not going to post anything constructive and worth reading, then don't post at all.

Michael Roberts GV rep last two years, i'm sure most clubs in any major league would be happy with that(so there is your one big recruit). 4 have had a minimum of one year GV senior experience, and all except for Michael (close friend of coach!) are connected to the club in one way or another which is a big tick in my book when recruiting.

They have some good players and a few young guns coming through like Matthew Richardson and Ali Brooks, but although they are on the improve, I cant see them making finals in 2007, although they will challenge some of the better sides and be snapping at the heals of Congupna and Tocumwal.
Isn't Richardson off to Yarrawonga?

micheal roberts is a gun, will be one of the top recruits in MFL
recruiting 1 or 2 guns is not going to make much difference-you need a spread of players that can contribute in all parts of the ground to make a difference. Tongala appear to be doing that and their coach/committee need to be commended for that approach. Perhaps 2008/09 could be the time to get a couple of guns to top off the foundation set this year:) :)

is that joel richardson?

Yes sorry, I wrote Richardson instead of Jackson, I meant Matthew Jackson. Was named best player for the MFL Un 18's inter-league in 2006. Joes Richardson isn't a bad player, has a lot of arrogance though.
