From looking at the transfers list Barny have picked up a few handy midfielders. They might be looking to give him a lessor role through the middle?
How have the saints been going in the night series?
Seeing his photo in Border Mail handout seems he has been pulling his hair out and needs a lessor role to stop that stress:p
It's nice of the border mail to give the PDFL a HUGE write up! I know the one in this Thursdays Shepp News will be a whole lot better.
The border mail did mention Blightys recuriting, is Blighty going to have the added pressure to preform this year because of their off season work?

It will be interesting to see how they go this year, couple of big recruits and a different draw from last year.
Will be interesting to see the redeyes progress.

should improve a fair bit from the night series as we had over half a dozen senior players missing.. hopefully more senior players come back into the team..

Are you suggesting they had an easier draw last season and that there results may have been inflated ?? :confused: :confused: :confused:
Is the draw significant, sure without doubt last season the 3 or 4 sides fighting for fifth had variable draws and you could probably put a case up for either of them, but would any of them beat shepp east, katandra or tungamah ?:confused: :confused: :confused:

Have heard Picola have picked up the brother in law of A. Brunt who apparently won a b&f last season, rumour is he is also a member of the 5 ft club, but fortunately is not a helmet head. I think the Picola game plan might be heavily structured around not kicking the ball in the air, either that or their coach has a huge complex about his height. Go the six footer !!!

As season nears here is my ladder would appreciate others thoughts.
Top 4 ( no order )
Katandra, ( needed to pick up quick tall key position players ) ?
Tunga, ( Wren, putta etc. getting on )
Shepp East ( needed to maintain , how will loss of quick midfleilders effect ) ?
Picola( Big blokes need to stand up, macca ageing quicker than most)
Fighting for remaining two spots ( no order )
dookie( huge influxes of players can sometimes have negative affect, bad early form might spell trouble) ?
Waaia( Life after Daniels' makes Trimby and Stevens so important in close and ageing, is Stevens back) ?
Katunga( can howden repeat, with huge workload )?
Blighty(should be big improvers, but have lost a good young ruckman, can wooden play whilst coaching )?
Yarraweah( finished year ordinary and have lost possibly their three best)
Mathoura(possibly have the two best key forwards in comp, their midfielders and backs need to use it better) ?
Rovers(most underachieved award for 2006, new coach new attitude )?
Strathy ( were a long way off, possibly the furthest away in last half of last season, no news)?
Katty( not far off strathy, if not further away, once again no news)?
Berrigan( may be a big improver, 5/8 chb needs key postion help) ?
Wunhgyu( commencing on long journey, discipline is at forefront)

If you have a look at their results last year, it shows that they were great against teams below them, but once they played the teams above or at the same level they seemed to struggle a little.
With the pick up of the huge ruckman and wooden it should allow players that had to play in the midfield last year to roam around the flanks etc, and be more damaging up forward. Ie. Napier.
I agree that they wouldnt beat the top four from last year.:thumbsu:

Have seen Adam Brunt out mark many 6+ footers. No complex about that boys ability! Brunt & the Daniel boys make Shaun Hart proud!
Hey boys looks like Cordy is gonna be stayin at Katandra.He was at training last night and said he most likely will be staying due to the fact that congupna was far to serious and he couldnt enjoy it.
I see katandra have a praccy match against st pauls this week, How do think you will go against them
Katandra will have a few back from uni and work on the weekend but they will also have a few out due to nigiling injurys.I hvnt seen or heard any thing on st pauls so it is hard to say how the game will pan out.Having a rough crack i would say Katandra will have about 6 senior players not playin and it is also a 6qtr game :thumbsu:

Grand final, division two: Waaia v Yarroweyah at 6.30 pm on Friday, March 30.
It's hard to go past Waaia after watching its two games, so it should be a tight contest with the midfields determining the outcome.
Plus it will be interesting to see how Adam Waasdorp goes against the team he coached for the last couple of years.
Grand final, division one: Barooga v Mulwala is at 8.30 pm on Friday, March 30.
You look at form and player lists and you would have to say Mulwala is the favourite for this one.
Young, quick legs and a heap of experience should have them come on top.
Barooga under new coach Matt Byers has been building and its intensity at the football could make this a tight and interesting final.
Tip with head - Mulwala.
Tip with heart - Barooga.
I would like to thank our sponsors and football fans for their continued support.
Most of all I would like to thank Grahame and staff at the Courier for the time and effort and the wonderful exposure they have given the night series.
- Anton Noble

Agree with your comments about brunty have seen him do it his whole footy career, but he is only one of quite a few smaller players out there. Don't you need some talls, they probably have only got two maybe three over 6ft, especially now lias is not going around. Do not think shaun hart would be taken by many before brown or lynch during the same era.In regards to the Daniel boys I agree they go alright and even better one is albino.
Point I make is a good big bloke is better than a good little bloke. You should realise this , I thought it was clearly obvious the Camo was the bloke most likely to win you blokes your last game !!!

just been readin a few of the posts from the last couple of months n it seems that strathy are struggling a fair bit...played up that way for 5 years but have been away from the region for a few years now. seems hard to believe they can be struggling after the junior success they had for along time there about 5-10 years back. names that come to mind are oswalds, mcmillian, powels boys, cleary boys, shannon boys, hutchins, carter boys, grillo, names like those were pretty decent players back then and seemed to be takin the club to the right place. what happened there has some of the older blokes left or have they had a bad coach or something...what went wrong?

I dont know the correct reasons, but i would assume some of them would have left for job opportunities and / or probably going away to uni etc.

Think you will find Oswalds and McMillan are excellent players at Yarrawonga in the Ovens & Murray, Luke Carter is playing in Bendigo, Powles boys think most have left along with Grillo and Clearys for work/travel etc. Some will return in the future you would imagine, John Brunskill has been coaching them and from all reports is a good coach just players leaving for one reason or another. They have struggled the last two years but were strong before that so just going through a rough trot as most clubs do but will struggle i think this year again as havent heard much about them.

He was more interested in seeing how the boys played, First time coaches need to stick it out to get that reputation they need to go onto other coaching jobs. No one's going to put on a coach that leaves half way through the season.

Do you still have a core group of Dookie College boys still there? I know you guys have picked up alot and Ozzi was very smart trying to get players who are not involved or enrolled in the college.

tungamah are gonna become seriouse threats this year as they have recruited a good number of gun players. i was talking to David Putamorsi a couple of weeks ago as i was playing in Euroa he said this would have to be the strongest tungamah team he has coached so far and he believes that they can go all the way. also that he said that this year he will have alot of depth in his team with some of these young kids making a good impression on the track and in the barooga night seriouse. My tip for premiers this year.

From what i have heard they nearly had the signature of guy morfet* from euroa but he pulled the pin because of all the travel. but i think they have lost a few out of there side and picked up not many. a couple of blokes from congupna played in the night series for them but havent heard if they signed. they should be top 6 again.

Hot tip Katamatite and Wunghnu to arm wrestle for the wooden spoon this year. Katamatite needed to close the gates on the cows, stoping them running out on the club this year. Mass number leaving!! They picked up ex-player Xavier Kennady (full forward) but they are still going to need to get the ball down there!

Go Berrigan - Bruzzy to turn it on and kick 10 then sink 10 white nights after the game - go Bruz

Michael Norman (gossy) kicked 11 goals for Blighty, not Moodie. Moodie kicked 4-5 from the midfield, he is very handy.
I picked Berrigan very early for the wooden spoon, they have been so over hyped it isn't funny. I hope for their sake that they had a few out, they run ok but have no height what so ever.
I was in the rooms listening to Turner at half time and wasn't impressed at all. The Saints were 7-8 goals down at half time and he had basically conceded the game. He told the boys they were on track to lose by 15 goals and that they should try harder and hopefully they will only lose by 3-4. There was no talk of a comeback or chipping away at the lead to try and win the game.
I wasn't real impressed with the speech, but to their credit they still looked as though they tried and didn't give up.

Magic, how did Mark Brassil go on friday v Blighty? Not named in the best or goal kickers. I see the score line wasn't great, anyone to come in and help out? I hear there were a few likely types sitting on the fence with stubbies in their hands.

Speaking to a couple of Picola boys, brunty did not play, priddle was fairly quiet, the umpiring was favourable and without changing result certainly had an influence, can anybody tell me how the recruits from the various clubs faired.

Is it true that Tungahmah is spending close to the $80,000 this year?? If so where does a club get that kind a coin?

I watched shepp east waaia on friday n the difference was basically the last quarter. I think shepp east lacked couple of big blokes but sam ahmet has hit the nail on head saying they'll take a bit of time adapting to new plans. I though waasdorp was outstanding for waaia while whitehead n ahmet were good for the east

Brassil had a day to forget, seems like we picked up the forwards that we needed and lost the backmen. With Ednie, Hill, Bond and Hickey gone and Stu Pyle injured and the local butcher lacking in motivation our back line isn't looking as strong as it has.
there was Ednie, Eales, Cameron, Andrew Pyle and some injured players watching on.

I don't think thats the right amount!! I think someone was pulling ya willie on this one.
There is a Mawson's mine or gravel or something out there to which the wren boys are related to in some way, i'll bet ya thats how Tungamah get there coin to surrvive but it will be now where near $80,000 on players.

blighty's mid field had a field day in the corporate box. I think if the coach had of put on a few tags and made the mid field be more accountable or gave others a crack at it instaed of the regulars, they might have quelled the barrage of kicks that went to blighty's fwd line. if someone had of done the mid fields stats for blighty, if you included the ruck they would have accumulated over 100 posessions between the 4 of them. so if you stop blighty's mid field you will win for sure coz their fwd line is ok but not brilliant.
berrigan has quite a few new players and once they gell together will only improve should be interesting over the next few weeks to see what happens.

Is cordy staying at Katrandra? did he play on saturday... i reckon he would find Congupna a bit hard. I heard that they have a no train no play policy this year and that wouldn't suit cordy.. i think he is a bit of a soft C@%K

I think you'll find Cordy has trouble getting to training because of work commitments. Also I believe he wont be staying the whole season as he will be moving to SA later in the year with his job.
If he was to play Murray football league he would fit in quite well considering some of the people playing in that league are a joke !!

Why go to the half way house of the Murray League. Either play major league (GVFL) of play minor league (PDFL) dont get stuck in the middle and kid yourself that you are playing with the big boys!
Hey guys have a look in the dictionary under L and you will find a word called LOYALTY. As your really good clubs about it... thats how they stay up for so long... not through a fat cheque book that comes out every 5 years!
As for Cordy being soft... well he may not swing many punches but he will sit on your head and steal the footy out of your hands!!

Isn't it great that footy is back. Praccy matches dont cut it! And also the way the draw gives you four local teams first up, lots of rivalry and some great games. No easing into the season.
We had Tungamah and it was a cracker of a game
Now Dookie... the great unknown
Bye

Not a bad start to they year.
