i reckon leitchy were alright against us...... the only thing was they left pollock in the ruck to long, they were real dangerous when he went deep. they would of beaten us if the last Q wasnt the hugh foott show.
plus i think cohuna have got more work to do than leitchy. maybe they should stop pullin tits for a while and concentrate on footy!

Aren't you the club that has been told by your fearless leader not to get on here and talk yourselves up and bag other players and teams because it will come back to bite you?

There seems to be a lot of ill feeling towards Labert in the CMFL.
After watching the game on saturday I cant say I blame them .After the king hit from behind on the Tooleybuc Manang player(it was from behind and a big one) the behaviour from the labert bench was terrible. They cheered and yelled abuse at an injured player as he was being escorted from the ground(who was clearly in trouble and could not defend himself ).How **** weak is that. The good supporters of the Labert footballclub do not deserve that sort of behavior and must be terribly embaressed by it . I was told the coach was a radio commentator last year for the local radio station .What a role model he is for the young kids in a small country community.Country football is struggling enough without unsportsman like behaviour like that Hows the investigation going.Maybe those officals should be getting investigated sa well.PS I have seen troy play a lot of very good football and a King hitter he is not. He is a tough and brave footballer who only Knows to well of the tragic circumstances on the football groundDoe's anyone know what sort of player Masters (Lalbert's caoch) was when he was playing? Fair or dirty player?

I have seen a few video's frog man when he was playing for Lake Boga and he was as dirty as you would like. but from talking to a few blokes that played in those days he used to run and hide also..... think i saw his head on crimestopers the other day too...:D

maybe you are up set that he was to smart for swan hill a few years ago in a premiership (Got in early and swan hill being the ego freaks that they are chased him all day only to loose yet another flag.) . robert masters stood his ground.. always stood up to be counted when it counted. just a shame he is at a club that panders to idiots, poor culture. people complain when umpires are bagged... their job is 4000 times easier than a coach... How many flags did the man win.....????

Race day...05.. Fletcher will support me here (I hope) we drank copius amounts at alcohol.... went onto early early hours of the morn at the second manang hotel/manand function room. The only drink wedgetail has finished came from his mums nipples. THis is just a sad attempt to cut a tall poppy and divert attention form action jackons JOLLY efforts on sat night...

I have read your comments and Kelvin 69s along with a few others and have a point to make about this issue. The lalbert football club has never been known to have cheap shot players who mean to hit kids whilst i have been at the club. The comments that have been made by people on this thread have nothing positive to say about any club or any individual for that matter who they have not got there c o c k up there a r s e. I think everyone would find that each team has had an incident that they may not be proud of, its just a matter of if the oposition team wish to make a song and dace of it as Tooleybuc have. You did not hear lalbert sooking when a woorineen player whilst running to the bench run over to the lalbert coach and threaten to kill him after hitting one of our boys do you, or about a Kerang player repeatly back handing our kids. Neither does the Lalbert coach condone that sort of behivour like any coach in this league.......

Don't talk smack mate. You blokes are in trouble, you have not got the quality to give the top 4 sides a scare, Balranald, Tooly, Kerang and Tyntynder. In that order, thoughts?. You guys should consider yourself very lucky to be where you are, considering Leitchy, Lalbert, Nyah games were toss the coin to see who wins.
I would think a snail would hunt more than you guys.

Thought the crew on the CMFL site might be interested in this article from today's Shepp News. Looks like it'll be put off for a year.
The push to establish a new Echucabased football league appears doomed.
A News survey yesterday revealed the ambitious proposal doesn't have the necessary support at club level to become a reality.
At least four of the 11 clubs pivotal to the project's success have indicated a reluctance to sever their current allegiances and form a new league.
The Deniliquin Rovers, Echuca United, Picola United and Tongala are all expected to reject an official invitation to join the new venture.
"We've talked about this on several occasions and we're absolutely not interested," Echuca United president Robin Rowbottom said yesterday.
"We're more than happy in the Murray league and we think this proposed move would be a big step backwards."
Deni Rovers counterpart Michael Fleming agreed, saying his club would prefer to remain in Picola District Football League.
"While we're not delighted with the current 15-club composition, we see our future in the Picola league," Fleming said.
"We think there would be too great a gap in the standard of the clubs earmarked for the Echuca league."
Deni Rovers, Echuca United, Picola United and Tongala have all been earmarked as potential foundation members of the proposed league, along with Pyramid Hill, Moama, Mathoura, LeitchvilleGunbower, Lockington-Bamawm United, Cohuna Kangas and Koondrook.
Victorian Country Football League official Alan Davies has spent the past week gauging the level of support that exists for the venture.
Davies, along with fellow VCFL representative John O'Donohue, has been pitching the new league to several clubs throughout the Goulburn Murray region.
The new league will only become a reality if at least 10 clubs pledge their support.
Davies said a vote would be taken by the end of the month and a definitive decision made one way or the other.
"By the end of July we'll know if we're going to push ahead or defer discussions for another 12 months," he said.

The push to establish an Echucabased competition is being spearheaded by disgruntled Central Murray Football League clubs Leitchville-Gunbower, Koondrook-Barham and Cohuna.
The trio, along with Mathoura, Moama and Lockington-Bamawm United have spent the past six months exploring the logistics behind creating the league.
The working party recently released a three-page document outlining the possible framework, including minimum number of clubs, administration structure and even availability of umpires.
It is hoped the prospectus will help clubs make an informed decision about the new league.
Yes 02 there is a bizarre love triangle going on between the boys and a certain JOLLY lady.. Causing a few dramas let me tell you.. Word on the street is that cullen is not happy and is gunna take wedgetail down. Any thoghts 02?
Word is that walters has openly admitted that he no longer regards cullen as a friend, cullen has decided to go his own way and seems to be doing alot better after teaming up with world renound almond farmer dallas jones... and walters is now trying to work things out with his JOLLY old mrs.. Hope everything works out for the wedgetail.. manang need a few more little juniors running around....

Im very intersested on peoples thoughts on how the cmfl is travelling and has the standard of football dropped off in the past few years or has it gotten stronger?.
Who are the ex afl players running around in this league?
Are there any clubs spending a fortune on players??
Is it true that Koondrook/Barham have not spent a cent on players and thats why they are bottom?.

If it hasnt dropped off it soon will as it is one of only 3 leagues to have adopted the point system .Leaving it opened to be raped by neighboring leauges .Struggling teams will not be able to rebuild .Player payments for clubs own born and bred players (1 pointers) will rise dramaticly as clubs struggle to hang on to them.Egomaniacs that run leauges dont see this as a problem as long as it gives them a bit of publicity

That post made way too much sense for this forum Cellar.:thumbsu:
The points system is hardly an ego thing for League officals. I reckon the league administrators and the district bloke Alan Davies spend a lot if their time trying to drag clubs out of the manure left by club officals who buy flags (theres the ego) and depart with the players when the moneys gone.
So much for the effectiveness of the salary cap.
If all leagues were to adopt the points system then the whole money thing is limited. Clubs can still recruit within limits but the idea of fostering your locals takes on a new importance.
They may leave to better their football ,go to school or whatever but many return and they're your zero pointers (at least in the SFL system).
I believe that Irymple in the Sunraysia F.L. would not of used much more than 5 or 6 of their point alocation of 22 this year and are currently flag favourites.
The Central Murray L has attracted a number of players from the SFL one club in particular. How will this club fare when the money tree is pruned.

wat obout your juniors in this new echuca league. coz Mathoura struggle to field an under 17s yet alone any other junior teams
The point sysem was introduced for afew simple reasons...
-Because the sunraysia league complained about the players they were loosing.. (As already said by someone)\
-And because it would increase tyntynder and swan hills strangle hold on the league... simply because the system favours supporting the locals.. and it is fact that no other club in the league has anywhere near the number of quality juniors as swan hill , tyntyder . (not that it is their fault by any means)\
The system is suppose to prevent clubs from buying up finals..
CAn anyone name a club other than the two town clubs,, boga (CLose to town ) and woora.. who have won a flag by not paying through the nose.....???
Swan HIll and tyntyder were sick of thier good sides been beaten by outsiders.. so we bring in the point system..
MY only argument is.... Life is "Survival of the fittest" meaning in footy terms... IF balranald, tooley tang,, kerang etc.. want to get off their arse and work like dogs to raise money to buy a flag.. then fantastic for them....
just because a few clubs in mildura.. and the two in swan hill do not WANT to go out and raise money and thier supporters (IF ANY) do not want to donate hundreds of hours and thousands of dollars.. then they will finish second best.... why disadvantage the clubs that have a crack?????

Well said 02, couldn't agree more. The monza needs to wake up and see what's really going on. A lot of clubs need to save money and make do for several years before having a shot at the title, eg Lake Boga this year, not paying much at all, and it shows, they are already talking about next year. No club wants to pay good money to finish out of the finals.
The points system stops clubs from doing this, thus giving SH and Tyn a greater chance of winning due to their number of players.
It is unfortunate but in this league when the money is gone, so are the players.

Nothin has been said mate about big footy...... i just reckon its a laught there is some good stuff on here.
I'm just sayin that we are startin to feel pretty good down there.
As for our fearless leader he has been fantastic this year and is really starting to settle himself in to the job and push us as far as we can go.
the hunted have turned into the hunters again!
Nice call you tosser. You must tell us what the feeling is like down there this week after your close game on the weekend. I hope you now realise that you are a bunch of pretenders this year and will go nowhere come finals time. Balranald and Tooley Manang are the two teams this year, with maybe Tyntynder giveing both of them a run for their money. And I don't want to hear about what injuries you may have, because it won't make a difference this year, you's are just not good enough.

If thats not a statement from a scourned, no idea, chip on your shoulder out of town player, from a club thats had no success, I dont know what is.
In town clubs work just as hard as out of town clubs.
in town clubs will never work as hard as out of town clubs, that is a stupid comment. They dont have to and there for they don't. Not saying that some of the blokes around the in town clubs dont put a lot of time and effort into there club, cause im sure that they do, but to the extent that an out of town club has to, never..

Would have Rovere and Nolan on a par. If there is a way these 2 blokes can have an influence on a game they will find it. These 2 guys are exactly why umpires cop a hiding because they don't have teams on neutal territory during the game. Everyone knows that Rovere loves the Maggies and will do anything to keep them in a game and Nolan hate almost every team in the comp but on the day he favours the team that he likes more, or favour the team that may have a bearing on his life outside umpiring i.e. Kerang Vs Tooleybuc

One would normally think Yabba, but after seeing the scores on the weekend (ie a 100-point thrashing to Balranald), one could be forgiven for thinking they perhaps didn't want the ball??? Totally out of character for the club but Muzza will no doubt get them back on track. Wont be easy against Tyntynder this week -- another premiership contender. Carroll has already notched up an amazing 93 goals after 11 rounds and looks destined to kick the big ton this weekend. Where would you play Hugh Foott if you were coach Yab? Been an on-going discussion over this way for a while now....

never been involved in an in town club. have watched the in town clubs get all the grants for there facilities, get there facilities looked after by the council.. doesnt cost as much for players as they are in town. think about it, it makes sense, the out of town clubs have to do more work as they have to do more things themselves, and have to generate more money as they have to pay for the cost of a player to travel as well..

Lovechild heard a rumour from a reliable source that Cal Beasy will join his brother this week in the Swan Hill side as the Bombers have the bye. Also heard from another source that he will be playing for the remainder of the year due to Bombers being unable to make the finals. Can you confirm or deny either of these rumours?

Love Child has heard that provided the Bombers are out of finals' contention, Beasy will be released back home to help the Swans defend the flag. Didn't set the world on fire in his cameo role for his brother's milestone, but one would feel the combination of he, Hugh Foott and Holt up forward would be the best trio in this league for some time. Would free up Foott to roam around the ground from CHB perhaps?

if you haven't been involved in an in town club then why you making assumptions? i would say that in the past few years out of town clubs have received more money of council and other avenues than in town clubs. it doesn't cost in town clubs as much for money but the two in town clubs are probably the teams that struggle most to field a 2's side every week because of sat morning retail outlets etc and people have to work. in town clubs facilities are looked after by the council in what way? in town clubs have to pay a huge lease compared to out of town clubs.
i think both out of town and in town clubs have just as many ppl who are behind the scenes making the club run like clockwork that ppl aren't aware of. i think last year the guardian recognised these ppl at some stage and if it could happen again it would be fantastic but ppl don't do it for recognition they do it to make their club the best it can be

What grants? Tyntynders facilitys were paid (and probably are still being paid for) by the club through HARD WORK!. Even if they did get grants they only get them through HARD WORK! any football club can apply for grants. The ovals get looked after by the council and thats why they have to pay a huge rates bill. No one else funds all this but the club and it's hard working people. Some out of town clubs maybe should get of their a r s e s and make their club more inviting for players to come there and stop whinging all the time.

-they have awb and abb cards that each farm dumps tones of grian into for the footy club. a lot of players, workers, helpers, juniors travell 35 to 40 minutes to training.. Juniors get out of bed around 6 to make some of the far away games. manang oval maintained by locals.\
-no grant out their way, they dont have steve mathews green stamping the tyntynder proposals...
-or idiots at swan hill wining a grant and deciding to spend it on a new gym when they border the leisure center and dont have an away room
-blokes out there are paid twice to 3 times the amount tyntynder players are paid, just to get them out that far..
-The juniors do not stick around, no work for anyone...
-last year they bought 300 ewes and ran them on peoples property and had working bees to mark and drench them. (Can see brad carrol doing that one)
- on top they run major raffles, balls, and every other function under the sun.
-most local players out there are paid good coin, as they are constantly getting approached by other clubs (NOt that they is not okay)
-all ready spoken about the lack of preseason that their line of work permits.
-and finally from a woorinen view, a big stink was kicked up by the committee out there a few years ago as they were made to pay very similar rates as to the inner clubs on the oval. and they water it, mow it, everything...
-now froggy boy, that is just of the top of my head.. i am sure a few people on here could go more indepth than me.. So if you can come on here and compete with that.. I WILL NOT SET FOOT ON THIS SITE AGAIN..

Couldn't agree more! Back home we had to build our own rooms, then had to turn around and still pay council rent on them?? Have to mow and mark your own oval each friday night etc, while the city teams have it all done for them.etc.etc..

Because of the drought farmers dont have the money to put back into the club. I can tell you now, whilst these in town clubs are being given an arm chair ride through the year, there will be half a dozen clubs around this area that will not see the 2008 season. So while you are complaining about the "retail sector" always remember you will have a footy club to go to on a saturday. Swan Hill r.c.c only look after there own back yard and make sure their "house and garden" look good.

-they have awb and abb cards that each farm dumps tones of grian into for the footy club. a lot of players, workers, helpers, juniors travell 35 to 40 minutes to training.. Juniors get out of bed around 6 to make some of the far away games. manang oval maintained by locals.\
-no grant out their way, they dont have steve mathews green stamping the tyntynder proposals...
-or idiots at swan hill wining a grant and deciding to spend it on a new gym when they border the leisure center and dont have an away room
-blokes out there are paid twice to 3 times the amount tyntynder players are paid, just to get them out that far..
-The juniors do not stick around, no work for anyone...
-last year they bought 300 ewes and ran them on peoples property and had working bees to mark and drench them. (Can see brad carrol doing that one)
- on top they run major raffles, balls, and every other function under the sun.
-most local players out there are paid good coin, as they are constantly getting approached by other clubs (NOt that they is not okay)
-all ready spoken about the lack of preseason that their line of work permits.
-and finally from a woorinen view, a big stink was kicked up by the committee out there a few years ago as they were made to pay very similar rates as to the inner clubs on the oval. and they water it, mow it, everything...
-now froggy boy, that is just of the top of my head.. i am sure a few people on here could go more indepth than me.. So if you can come on here and compete with that.. I WILL NOT SET FOOT ON THIS SITE AGAIN..
Well said you are spot on I hope some one from league head quarters gets their heads out of their arses and reads this

[quote=Catter]Because of the drought farmers dont have the money to put back into the club. I can tell you now, whilst these in town clubs are being given an arm chair ride through the year, there will be half a dozen clubs around this area that will not see the 2008 season. So while you are complaining about the "retail sector" always remember you will have a footy club to go to on a saturday. Swan Hill r.c.c only look after there own back yard and make sure their "house and garden" look good.[/quote
These same retail outlets they talk about in Swan hill are also supported by these same small communities .Contributing towards thier $$$$ profit

Here Here,
Couldn't agree more! Back home we had to build our own rooms, then had to turn around and still pay council rent on them?? Have to mow and mark your own oval each friday night etc, while the city teams have it all done for them.etc.etc.. I think you will still get an arguement though footy02 as we all know that the city clubs think its there right to get everything given to them cheap and have no idea what happens more than a few k's past any 60 signs!!And what a F&*kwit you are sockit sounds like you are about 3 years old. Swan Hill and Tyntynder mark their own lines ya w a n k. And FOOTY02 i definately agree with what your saying, it would involve lots of time and effort. Out of town clubs have those options.......what have the in town clubs got? Fundraising and functions, raffles e.t.c. Tyntynder had to find ways to make money so they spent money years ago on their lights and made them good enough to start the night series which is a great money spinner for them. e t c. I do agree with you, again i'm just saying that they to do hundreds of hours to keep their club on track. Steve Matthews singing anything has got nothing to do with handouts!:)

What have the in town clubs got? Mate have have you even been reading what has been said. And do you honestly think that if a club like Balranald had a great set of lights like tyntynders they would get the same teams to travel out there and play the night series? Lets be ****in honest in town clubs are always going to be at an advantage mainly because of where they are situated and if you don't beleive that you are kidding yourself.

oh poor glovy, cant field a seconds side cause all the retail people ahve to work.. who won the 2's falg last year, and who has been competative every other year.. you fool, name a grant that any other club,, no make it 2 grants since you were so clear that the outter clubs have been getting all the grants...
poor retail sector, toughing it out. what about farmer, stockies, the *** pullers from down south. and they have one twentieth of the population to attract from.
retail outlets pfft.\
and although thier are a number of peeple behind each club intown that do the work, and they are the best run clubs in the league.. they could never move out of town and run a club because it take far more people to run and out of town club.. maybe the teams with supporter should save on hall hire for their function and do what tyntyder and swan hill do.... grab thier supporters and head for the nearest phone box and party on...
Your right 02 i can't field a 2nds side cause i'm not involved with a club at all. How many ppl from manang are using this name 3 or 4? to answer you question i believe swan hill won last years 2nds flag and i presume your saying tyntynder are competative every other year. in town teams have only won half the premierships on offer in the 2's since conception of CMFL and less than half in the seniors but they win everything cause council and league gives it all to them:thumbsd: s h i t comment
you say it takes more people to run an out of town club than in in town club i think you will find the amount of people on the committees in town and out are similar.
with swan hill and tyntynder fitting their supporters in a phone box you would be making a lot more on the gate than them with many more people going to the footy and netballers actually having to pay to get into the footy the same as with junior football families.
this is turning into a sh it house debate because i believe in town clubs and out of town clubs would work just as hard as each other and that is good for this league that ppl out of town are prepared to fight and work for their club to survive.
I will get the info on all the clubs that have received grantsin the past 2 years and how much. you will be very surprised:eek:

dead right frogg dog even i have marked the lines on a friday night. we spent a fortune on our lights and the league took the night series off us because we were making the money not them. so to say in town clubs get everything off the league and council is a load of s/h/i/t

Glovvy, i think wat he is saying is that outta town clubs rely on volunteers to do all the club work, you are right, all clubs have the same amount of people on the committee but its those behind the scenes that work alot harder, the players and members drive the trucks, mark the wethers etc etc. most of the intown players probably dont even no what a sheep looks like. let alone how to mark one. why dont the in town clubs get off their a r s e and try and raise some money, surely there is someone at the club that owns a fruit block, how bout the players get out and pick some fruit and the farmers donates the picking wages to the club, or are yous not smart enough to think of those sorts of things. dont say that intown clubs cant raise money its just that they are too lasy to get off thier high horse and do it!!!!
