Central Murray FL

[footy02]

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:\
-only one person on here. NOt involved with tooley manang or woora..
-maybe we have different opionion on what would we call finding it hard to field a reserves side...
-think you should talk to stan forster about field a resies side at nyah for every year other than the two that nearly broke them\
-or anyone at lalbert..
-Or woorinen in years gone by....
-hang on even better balranald
-It is a total shame that " in town reserve sides have only won HALF the resies flag" I do agree with that, would be much better if they won 3/4.
truly struggling for numbers.. perhaps we can ask cohuna to stop stacking the resies so that we can reach the 3/4 mark for the in town clubs...
-"seniors have only won less than half" oh my god.. this is outrageous...talk to tooleybuc who have won 1 ever...\
plus swan hill lost a lot af g f and tyntynder too because their so called club loyals and bench workers went for a delightful; holiday on grand final day.. leaving their side to be absolutely out coached by a team that were not as good as them..
you know what.. I am switching sides.. new proposal.. lets save each club the trouble of raising the 250,000 or what ever a year... and we will go in and support either swan hill or tyntynder on g f day.. still not happy bout the seniors only wining less than half.. and reserves only half... how can we fix this.....

[footy02]

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 weathers 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 friut 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!!!!\


well put.. keep it on the down low tho.. cause if they ever decided to get off their a r se and raise some money they league would be shot as no one would travel out of town...

[chooken]

hahaha. i love reading about this in town out of town stuff. haha. Alot of you have no idea, and im talking about you in town clubs. I dont doubt for a second that it still takes alot to run a club. But an out of town club will work twice the hours. Recruiting, more work goes into that beacuse they have to convince blokes to travel. If a footballer moves to town with work whats the first clubs he sees? And thinks why travel when i can play here. mowing the grounds, ive seen first hand who mow the in town clubs grounds, and they are not club people. actually they wear fluro shirts that say on them" Swan Hill Rural City Council'. You in town clubs wouldnt know what a workin bee was. Ive seen the blokes doing the building on the back of the grandstand at swan hill. Ive sn probly 5 workers there, 2 maybe swan hill. Ive seen an out of town club rooms get built from ground up just by supporters and players and committee. Half the swan hill players wouldnt even know that theres an extension being done. So like i said i dont doubt that alot of work is put in by the people at an in town club, But dont EVER compare it to an out of town club.....because, yas really have know iidea!!!

just makin a point

[the gloved 1]

I hate to keep going on with this but it seems the 2 headedness isn't just prominent with the southern clubs it seems it is every club that isnt't swan hill & tyntynder.
Like I have said i'm not involved in a club but I do support footy. I go and watch every second week in town because of my circumsatnces it is easier for me to just go to in town games unless there is a terrific game scheduled not far away.
Both clubs from in and out of town would work there arses off! But here is the difference in town clubs probably require $60K - $80K a year in match payments to be competative and out of town clubs need upwards of $150K just to be a chance of playing finals.
This is not the in town clubs fault that they took the option many years ago to move into town because they knew they would be better off in the long run. Why don't one of you out of town clubs go to Murray Downs? Guaranteed best facilities in the league and an abundance of money from poker machines and you wouldn't have to do any work. You could be an IN TOWN CLUB.
The only reason there is hostility between the out of town clubs and in town clubs is because of success. And if you look at the history of the MMFL/CMFL the in town clubs aren't that successful but when they are that means they have worked hard for it. Maybe not as hard as out of town clubs but as hard as they have 2 to win a flag!

[the gloved 1]

new topic.

what will the make up of the top 5 be?

1. Balranald
2. Tyntynder (1 game behind)
3. Tooleybuc/Manang (Equal with Tyn)
4. Kerang (1 game behind 2 & 3)
5. Swan Hill
6. Lalbert (Same as Swan Hill but less%)

No i think that the outta town clubs dont like to be put in the same category as the in town clubs. cant admit defeat so just change the subject.

You just lost everyone with that last sentence you tosser you have just totally agreed with everyone you have been arguing with. You also said you go and watch games in town which is fair enough because it's easier for you, but you have totally agreed with footy 02 when he said thats exactly what a new player would do. Swallow your pride my friend

because there are in town club supporters on here who tell us that its so hard for them to raise money, whereas the outta town clubs dont whinge and just get on with the job. thats the difference.

Jackson just read through all my posts and I cant remember me arguing with anybody just a debate in general (and not the type you have out at Balranald now that jamie is back, you know the mass debate). I have never ever once said that in town clubs work harder I was saying both types of clubs would work just as hard as they need to raise enough money to be competative so I don't know ho I've lost anyone.
And I go to watch footy in town because of a physical disability, if i got paid to go and watch as much as you out of town clubs pay for players from in town I would happily go and watch you

[iamfooty]

Brad Carroll best forward, Warrick Campbell goes well & the bloke from Koondrook name escapes me, takes marks good player

Aaron Cocks is his name. Goes very well. No doubt that Kieran Treacy is the best defender going around and his Bombers and interleague team-mate Ryan Prendergast would also be in the top 5. Both have been the key behind LG's mini revival and both played in the key possies for CMFL

[clifton's lookalike]

can you tell me where an in town person has said its hard for their club to raise money?

[footy02]

good point glovy.. team dont move form the outter as they are held back generally by a few people in each club.. the first club that moves into town .. e.g lalbert or woora, maybe nyah... will live on .. those that dont will die.. the next generation of people to do the work for the club are not there. to many lost to education and other sports, and those that do stay are to lazy to take up the slack...

[clifton's lookalike]

With in town clubs having half the supporters of out of town clubs as a few have kindly pointed out, we are unable to take on big money raisers i.e. picking fruit, grain transport, wood cutting because we have a lack of manpower so we stick to what we know we can do well.

[GoBears]

haha great call the league is getting worse every week

The only reason you say the league is **** is because your club play like a bunch of spastics.. The league is strong its just that the inter-league was a shadow of the best team the CMFL could put on the park if everyone was available. Inter-league does not truly reflect on the standard of the competition..

[chooken]

ill drink to that goBears!! Interleauge is a joke,. The coaches and selectors pick there favourites and most blokes use it as a reason to get away and have the weekend off. A split round would help the issue.

[GoBears]

Definitely need something to happen, one weekend off for the entire season just isnt good enough. Dont think its the coaches or selectors fault, nor the players for that manner, scrap the whole concept i say

[chooken]

Both have been the key behind LG's mini revival and both played in the key possies for CMFL NO doubt about treacy. Good honest backman. Prendergast no where near. Great runner off half back but He plays the same game as prympke. They wouldnt have manned up in there career. One of the top full forwards would tear them to bits!!!

[chooken]

Dont think its the coaches or selectors fault, nor the players for that manner, scrap the whole concept i say Yeah theres deffinately ways to fix it. Nah not the selectors or coaches fault, but i do think that when it comes to picking there squad they go to much on past reputation than current form. Current form will win u games, Nothing in the past can help you.

[clifton's lookalike]

hahaha. thats just shows how brain dead yas are. all grounds hey? hahaha funny stuff

What team do you play for that doesn't get the ground mowed by council chooken?

[austin_23]

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!:)

CL,

if tyntynder calls this hard work then they have got something coming, they are just the necessary things that need to be done to keep a footy club going. its the bigger things that make the club successful. all footy clubs have raffles etc but only the hard workers get out to the bunkers and paddocks and fruit blocks, it can be done. your right, they dont have many supporters

[chooken]

What team do you play for that doesn't get the ground mowed by council chooken? I dont play in this leauge anymore but i can gaurantee you that woora dosnt. And youl will find that i think only swan hill and tyntynder do

[My Shout]

Brad Carroll best forward, Warrick Campbell goes well & the bloke from Koondrook name escapes me, takes marks good player

I have done a little research on the forwards=
B. Carroll 93 goals in 11 games = 8.45 goals per game
J. Arentz 79 goals in 9 games = 8.78 goals per game

So on the stats I will run with Arentz as best forward, just.

I have been around to a few different games this year and seen most teams play and the best backmen would have to be out of Treacy, Pohlner and O'Sullivan. Although Treacy has been towelled by Arentz and Carroll this year (12 and 15 goals respectively), but performed well against Holt and Pumpa and has been named in the best most weeks.

[clifton's lookalike]

know a fair bit about the league and have a fair bit to say about it for someone who's not involved in it any more. ex woorinen player? i was 99% sure that all teams in the council had there ovals serviced by the council unless the ovals were privately owned then the clubs would have to mow there own. i could be wrong but i will do my homework and apologise if i'm wrong

Yeah im agreeing with you there i reckon. I also like campbell, and beasy has held both blokes well. Carrol had kicked 5 in the first quarter when he went on to him thids year and kicked 8. dont think he played against tooleytang but last year held him to 3

yeah austin it took a lot of manpower and raffles to get enough money to pay for and actually get them lights set up, not to mention the cost of running them. like i have said i dont think there is a differnce between the clubs working hard there is probably a difference in manpower and manpower means $$$$

The in town clubs dont have to do a thing so why would they want to own them?

[clifton's lookalike]

But that is exactly what im saying. oora and lalbert and these clubs own there grounds because they dont have a choice. The in town clubs dont have to do a thing so why would they want to own them?

those clubs would have paid next to nothing for them grounds and the rates for in town clubs to have their grounds maintained is sky high. i've had enough of this topic no-one is right or wrong, it's like stickin up for your family. blood is thicker than water

[clifton's lookalike]

sounds good mate. agree to disagree hey!! now did you say ya best backmen? and then midfeilder?

Best backman for me would be either treacy or o'sullivan. I would probably lean towards o'sullivan can't remember him having a bag kicked on him (could be wrong). Best midfielder I would say young coates from Kerang has had a good year and Lance Brown doesn't lower his colors to often

[My Shout]

Who are the best midfielders in the league this year??

Best midfielders would have to be out of Lance Brown, Charlsey (when he turns up), Lachie Beasy and Troy Coates.

[My Shout]

Yeah im agreeing with you there i reckon. I also like campbell, and beasy has held both blokes well. Carrol had kicked 5 in the first quarter when he went on to him thids year and kicked 8. dont think he played against tooleytang but last year held him to 3

I couldn't imagine Todd Beasy holding Arentz too 3, unless he was playing in a wheel chair that day. Wasn't he the bloke Arentz belted the living suit case out of a couple of year ago?

[footy02]

o'sullivan is great backman.. no doubt and i am not sure if pohlner could stop some of the people that o'sullivan has stopped../ however. if you ever watch manang play. he is the key, the general.. sets it all up, very good mouth, very smart, very underated player..

[super snooper]

who are the underated players of the CMFL? Very good players that perhaps slip under the radar?

[The_KNIFE]

who are the underated players of the CMFL? Very good players that perhaps slip under the radar? Pohlner and Morris

[alfie]

Can anyone stop the great man carroll? 93 goals in 11 games? Not a bad feat only playing on 1 leg! Although have personally not seen him kick a goal in the wet! Big rain on saturday forecasted!!!

I dont think so arent they still in receivership .Murraydowns is in the Wakool shire just ask tooleybuc how much they get out of them

Who has the manpower and the money?? Intown or Out??

i think you'll find the council mows all grounds

Doubt that mate!!! me and my family have been mowing woora ground for 40 yrs, donating our time and fuel... work it out. Who biult the woora clubrooms, players and committee, had to raise all the funds ourselves, how did we do this, getting out there and fundraiseing, delivered all the new recycle and rubbish bins to swan hill, robinvale, kerang, cohuna, barham, moulamein. Shoveled out all the channels in woora and murrawee district for 2 yrs. And the sad thing is. We pay exactly the same amount of fees at Woora as the in town clubs and we have to pay for and maintain the reserve ourselves. you have no argument, face the facts.

Here Here. What a superb piece of debating from one of the best in the business. Great way to conclude what has been an emotional debate from all concerned. In summary, the town clubs do get an easy ride in comparison to the out of town clubs. If things were so even, why do we have three southern teams looking for a way out at the end of this season?

It gives me great pleasure in announcing the out of town clubs the winner of the great debate. I now offically draw this topic to a close.

New topic -- sex the night before CMFL games......any opinions? Does it help or hinder?

The league is strong its just that the inter-league was a shadow of the best team the CMFL could put on the park if everyone was available. Inter-league does not truly reflect on the standard of the competition..
If u think the league is so good why don't you take over the interleague side.

[Sockit151]

Take it when it is on offer, who cares if it helps or hinders!!!
Notice you have been rather quiet on this town vs country debate ROOTA.
Got an opinion, do you think that the fact 2 of the 12 teams seem to win ONLY 1/2 of the prizes on offer is because they work harder than the other clubs, who could get the job done (ie Flags & G/F's) just as easy if they wanted?? OR without trying to take anything away from them, because any team that wins a flag works hard for it (no one has argued this) do you think it might be JUST a little bit easier for a city based club to keep a competitive side on the park??

Trying to stay out of heated debate and away from controversy mate. I have no doubt that it would be easier for town clubs to remain competitive. Swan Hill and Tyntynder have had their down years also, but they don't seem to be prolonged periods the likes that my club and yours have seen. This is just the nature of geography mate. This debate is points out many of the reasons why i would love my club to move to town. Won't happen and that is fine, and i will continue to play and do whatever is needed to make the club live on, but would love to be based at MDOWNS

[behind_post]

yeh thats easy, cohuna, kerang, leitchville and koondrook!! any speculation on where they would head? golden rivers, north central, or maybe even form the old northen echuca league??? those sides would be to good of golden rivers though!!!!!!

[alfie]

Here's a couple.......

Brett Pekin (Swan Hill)
Lee O'Meara (Lalbert)
Randy Munzel (Bombers)
Luke Crow (Woor)
Aaron Cocks (K/B)
Travis Byrne (Balranald)
Nathan Pope (Cohuna)
Hayden Walters (Tooley)
Tim Styles (Tyntynder)
Adam Budjuso (Kerang)
Chris Knee (NNW United)
John Guthrie (Lake Boga)
totally agree with you iamfooty in regards to tim styles from tyntynder. Plays his best footy in the back pocket, would be my 1st pick in the backline in the CMFL all star team for 06.

Does John Guthrie even play seniors at Lake Boga?? Is that him that regularly appears in the best players in the Ressies?? Agree with most of the others though iamfooty, although I don't think i've ever heard of the Kerang bloke.

Don't know about the first pick in the back line. Back pocket for sure though. He is a back pocket specialist. :thumbsu:

Probably why he is underrated......handy defender and one of the few blokes that isn't rated on the current Kerang list.

Ok, Guthrie was a roughie, but saw him play ressies last week and goes alright. With Brawn out, maybe a spot for him in senior footy -- reminds me of a flamboyant Nathan Seamons in his prime:thumbsu:

[clifton's lookalike]

Here Here. What a superb piece of debating from one of the best in the business. Great way to conclude what has been an emotional debate from all concerned. In summary, the town clubs do get an easy ride in comparison to the out of town clubs. If things were so even, why do we have three southern teams looking for a way out at the end of this season?

It gives me great pleasure in announcing the out of town clubs the winner of the great debate. I now offically draw this topic to a close.

New topic -- sex the night before CMFL games......any opinions? Does it help or hinder?

Thanks brad I agree call the debate to an end because we are agree to disagree there is no easy ride form anyone in the competition, no club would survive it was an easy ride.

Sex before the game is ok if its the morning of ... according to the Italian World Champion Soccer team of 06. I read somewhere that the majority of these blokes were getting a load out either the night before or day of matches during world cup

hhmmmm, makes sense. The lighter they are, the easier it is to dive.....Might hold my load for a while so i can bust through some packs this weekend against NNW United.

yeh he grew up playing footy for macorna, fantastic junior player

How Is Shannon Millward Travelling From Bendigo League? Sean Smith Up There Again? Filo Still Playing In Your League? He Would Be One Of The Maddest Egg's Getting Around. Still Go Ok? Brother Derek Slowed Down Now, I'd Say It Will Be His Last Year Down Here.

Yeh millward has been in best last two weeks, sean smith has gone to a bendigo based club, filo is still kicking and still fooling people with his famous side step, yeh luke guerra having a good season but is a smart ass.

anyone heard this??
i heard that koondrook are still paying off debts from last year that's why they haven't done much this year.

[Carey and Grant]

well said king exactly right

look how many paid players there are running around if it was such a good league these players wouldnt have to be paid to come and play

[Carey and Grant]

i heard that koondrook are still paying off debts from last year that's why they haven't done much this year.

someone said earlier that they are gunna spend up big next year

[CLIFTON WANNABE]

Millward has apparently had two good games. i have seen him play yet but from all accounts is a quality player.
Smithy is back at Harcourt
Filo is still play/coach Kerang, still get his stats on the board and great at stoppages. Not sure about the mad egg name, has matured but still hard at it.
i agree Luke Guerra is an absolute W**ker. he continually starts trouble and expects Uncle Shane to come in and finish everything off. Good work.

[MADDOGMICK40]

obviously you don't know filo's very well mate, they are mad. watched castlemaine grandfinal years ago and while the national anthem was playing sean paced up and down yelling out he was going to kill them and was just scary, foaming at the mouth. he used to wear a bandana. he is mad. derek is the same but a little more reserved...saw them go off a few years ago at a local pub in bendigo, sean dropped two blokes his mrs dropped one and derrick cleaned up the rest.. and as for smithy, what can i say he is out of control.

Chris Knee??? He would of played 6 games in the ones if that... id put stu polky or jarrod skinner in there before him at nyah but agree with everyone else but john guthrie well if he got out of a pair of size 85 shorts he might be able to get a kick!
