Ballarat Football League

[merrigan]

I would like to be the first to say the BFL has done a very good job at bringing them into the league with all those outlines i think it can only make the competition stronger.
Good Work BFL Board:thumbsu:

How?

[cockroach]

How?


Nth City in who cares ? worry about getting your own sides in order
and then go about beating them on the ground
lets face it money is not the thing that wins flags in this day and age
ask Sunbury and East and Darley

plus look at there results in Bendigo ?:confused:

[Third Man Up]

BFL Board voted to accept North City tonight.

Explains the loud explosion I heard during the evening....was obviously Shane Manley bursting at the seams with excitement.....

[19th Man]

Sutts is on $700 a game and mcmahon is on $800.. sutts is a bit dirty to..

I think it's around the $500 mark for these guys. The figure of $700 for Sutts is close to what Hppers Crossing were said to be paying for his services.

[19th Man]

Tuddy signed. $800 per game plus sign on fee. What a joke nothing more than a midfielder..
Dylan mclaren is best mates with tuddys brother so there might be some truth to that. saw him in thailand tho very fat....

Agree, if true, what a joke!!!!!!!!!!!

I would like to the first to say that the BFL is weak and that i hope north city lose every game they play next year.

Geez there are some rules and regulations for north city to follow. Interesting to see where lakers and sebas are in 5 years....

[the_other]

The regulations do look pretty stringent, I hope it does end up being good for the league.

[cockroach]

Agree, if true, what a joke!!!!!!!!!!!


good story but not true on Tuddy

good news for the bloods Porter having a run at training
massive pick up :thumbsu:

[mr_blonde]

despite talks of an appeal coming from a few clubs around ballarat this should be the end of it in terms of north city entering the league... there has always been the perception that the vcfl was for north entering the bfl once again, any appeal to them would be basically a waste of money, and since one of the major fears of north moving into the league is that it would be taking money away from other ballarat based clubs, any club that chose to appeal would be shooting itself in the foot

[MarascoTheChump]

The regulations do look pretty stringent, I hope it does end up being good for the league.
Also, after reading ballarats presidents comments on the courier website, correct me if i'm wrong but is a refusal to play against north city on the cards?

[Blue Ball Fever]

Tuddy signed. $800 per game plus sign on fee. What a joke nothing more than a midfielder..
Dylan mclaren is best mates with tuddys brother so there might be some truth to that. saw him in thailand tho very fat....
Tuddy not signed yet. And its not $800. Don't be silly.
If we snare McLaren he will be a handy back up ruckman, will be able to give Trav Stephenson a hand.

[chumpy]

Travis Stephenson was doing a pre-season at Richmond. Unfortunately they overlooked him in the draft today, going for youth over experience.

[chumpy]

I also hear that the Marsh top brass went on a recruiting mission to South Australia hoping to snare former home town boy Justin McConnell. Rumour has it that I didn't sign McConnell, but they brought back former Adelaide Crows; Grantley Fielke, John Klug and this guy:

http://www.fullpointsfooty.net/images/DMarshallAdel_small.JPG

David Marshall.

Not only are these guys all aged over 45, but they were crap 10 years ago.

Looks like another long year at Cobraland.

I hadn't thought of that. I just assumed they were talking about legal action. I noticed in the Courier on Saturday that they mentioned that Redan had distanced themselves from the other Ballarat clubs, but were still against it. I am not sure what that all means.

[chumpy]

I've also heard that Dane Grenfell has been getting some serious air time and taking hangers over Sutts during warm up drills. Sutts don't like it one little bit either and was heard saying to another player "Who does this Grenfell guy think he is?".

Could be trouble at Panther land.

good work chumpy getting around the traps over preaseason
any word on the other clubs you sound like your in the know ?

The Merging Dogs have flown in a chafe specialist from the US to help Hutchy with the burning sensation between his thighs. For those who don't know, Hutchy's chafe goes way beyond bike shorts and vaseline.

Let's hope that they can sort it out so that he is right to go round one.

What a joke! It just goes to show how pathetic some of the Ballarat sides can be. Accept the challenge of noth being in the comp and get on with it.

Exactly right Morning Herald.....good to see the sportsmanship shown by Melton Football Club, who have ( on their web site) wished them well and lets get on with it....

Bit hard for that to happen considering he hasn't trained there yet.

Anyone had a good look at the new points system?

[pickman]

Anyone had a good look at the new points system?

I have a brief look at it, it appears to have worked in other leagues of similar stature so I can't see why the basic premise won't work in the BFL.

Good to see the BFL taking action to improve the evenness of the competition, it's been the league's achilles heel for a number of years now

[P E S T]

Also, after reading ballarats presidents comments on the courier website, correct me if i'm wrong but is a refusal to play against north city on the cards?

I couldn't believe the comments by Manley in the courier :thumbsd:.... Sounds like a scared old man after some publicity! He should focus his time and money on building the Ballarat Footy Club, and stop fighting a battle that can not be won. The reason why it cant be won is that everybody knows it is good for the league, North City and the community. And if Manley took a step back and used some smarts he would have seen that North City are all about developing there young players and the conditions dont really need to be there anyway because North have shown in the Bendigo League in the last 2 years that the pathway for the young guys is the culture and not recruiting heaps of VFL guys ect...

I guess my main concern is that the standard of the comp will go down. Redan have shown what building a relationship with players from a higher league can do, so to discourage that could be a backward step.

[MarascoTheChump]

The points system will even the comp but will weaken the comp and go down hill, after looking at the points structure... East & Redan will hurt massively especially redan with bucket loads of Vfl & rebels players! Other leagues will benefit if BFL goes with point system it works in sunraysia league as they don't have a vfl club in there back yard.

[The Sharpe Man]

Apparently the BFL have had a rethink and will allow North City FC to wear Black & White jumpers as they have been members of the league longer than the Darley FC.

Looks like Darley FC will be the Darley FC Hawks in 2008 and will wear brown & gold stripes.

Stay tuned for the announcement.

Can't have an each way bet on the issue though. North City are specifically prevented from developing that type of relationship with the VFL club so why shouldn't every other club have to feel some of that pain. If the clubs want carte blanche to sign whomever they desire from wherever then they have to allow that for all clubs. No?

The only issue with hat is that North City are entering the team into an already tight market with access to resources that outstrip the other Ballarat teams.
Contrary to some poster's beliefs, Redan pay under market rates for most of their players. I don't think that North City will adversly affect Redan's ability to attract players from North Ballarat who want to play in a successful team with their mates, so I have no problem with the restrictions phasing out over time.

and bacchus marsh will be wearing Fremantle colours, Melton South will wear fitzroy jumpers and sunbury will wear port adelaide colours.

Stupid post Sharpe Man.

[mintonconnell]

Does anyone have any idea what will happen in terms of the draw now that there is 11 teams? It worked pretty well last year with 10 teams, everyone plays each team twice for 18 rounds. What will happen now that a bye will have to be introduced? Will it still stay at 18 rounds? Whatever the case it will make it pretty uneven I think. When is the fixture usually released? Will be pretty interesting to see what they come up with.

Mate hows it good for the league? Also not everybody thinks thats its good mate most clubs were against the idea except for your meltons and sunburys. It will weaken the BFL if anything mate because of north citys poor standard of football. And the only reason VFL players didnt play for north city is because they did not want to travel to bendigo and play in a losing side!

1. Will be good for the league because it will make the lower sides wake up to them self, the lower sides are scared because they know in the next 5 years North Will slowly be the club to beat, so North's inclusion will be the kickup the bum these clubs need inorder to improve because they will want to put North back in there box and will be trying alot harder to prove them self, and improved teams means a more competitive competition and a stronger league.

2. North City's poor standard of football?? What the??? North City will bring a better style of footy than your sebas, lakers, marsh, Darley and in the next few years they will be pushing the top teams...... In the long term North will ultimately ift the standard of the competition.

3. Fair enough some of the VFL boys didn't want to travel, but i still dont think North were chasing heaps of players to play, thats because they are about developing the young team and maybe adding 1 or 2 VFL players.

You really believe the egos at north (eg.Terry Hay, Horn Howard, John Orr) will allow them to be beaten??!!!! If they get beaten by some lower sides they will manipulate the rules to get the players required to meet their premiership expectations. As for developing players what a croc of s**t as north are renowned for only playing the best players.

here here i applaude this... norths ego's are that far up themselves, they need to take a shit for it to come out and start again. as soon as north stop trying to recruit good players away from other clubs, and stop telling kids lies that the need to be there in order to come under notice of rebel /vfl coaches other clubs might not have these opinions.
the decision to allow north city in the bfl is only welcomed by players and committee at nth city and not ballarat... sorry

Obviously you have not been around the players/staff/supporters of North City, they have created there own culture down there, as a bendigo football league supporter i have followed North with a keen eye, and to say they have ego's is to say that Britney Spears is not on drug's, it has just not been seen. Sure North may have had a culture of having big Ego's years ago, but look at all these clubs throwing money at players especially young players and giving them unreachable incentives and using this to manipulate them!
Time will tell and i think your tune will change! or maybe not! Alot of people have got preconceived hate for North in general and are unwilling to look at the culture North City has made for its self! Times change stop being sore losers!

PEST stop talking s**t!!! I played at North and the Rebels and know the people involved there. Your president Paul Leahy is the most arrogant going around and is always stating why wouldn't you play for North. If they are fair dinkum change your name from north and move away from the Rebels and VFL and then see how you go. And please stop contacting me as I wouldnt play for you d**kheads if they were the last side on earth!!!

Get over the north city thing they are in the BFL now who cares. The only reason the Ballarat, East Points and the like dont want them in is because the dont like to be challenged, as soon as it gets tough they lay down on the field and now its obvious off the field. You dont hear Sunbury Darley Melton Melton South and Redan complaining as they all like a challenge know matter where they are on the ladder they look forward to playing who ever it is and not worrying about things out of there control.

correct me if im wrong, but sunbury, melton, melton sth etc etc didn't get to play against nth ball and if they did it was not for long. perhaps if nth ball started recruiting their kids, promising the world they two may have the attutide as a lot of ballarat footballers. i to was promised this type of behaviour and shown your good facilities, thank god for loyality i was not mixed in your culture.....:thumbsd:

If you think arrogance is being confident in your club there structure and the players, then the guys at North wouldn't want you there anyway son! Go back to school and learn the meaning of arrogant! Arrogant is a person making undue claims or boasting with no respect for others. Paul Leahy has the up most respect for all, and with my short conversations with him on the side lines in Bendigo show he is a passionate & confidant president! and correct me if i am wrong but isn't that how a club president should be. Maybe its not like that at Ballarat, i've heard your president is very in love with himself!

[SammySuperstar]

Let's turn it around and talk about some things that the Marsh have done that Darley haven't ...

I guess the big one that sticks out for me happened during the late 90's when Bacchus Marsh purchased themselves an untried coach and purchased themselves an entire team. While moderately successful in reaching a grand final, all their hired guns and mercenaries left the club financially broken and strapped for talent when they all realised what a toilet of a club it is and left.

The Marsh can only blame themselves and their past committee for the trouble they have found themselves in lately.

I mean getting smashed by your cross-town rival year after year must be awfully embarrassing.

*squeezes hands together*

Marsh will not stand a chance in u18's reserves or seniors they only play each other once so it will be like a mini grand final should be good to watch

[kangas1999]

Just a quick one.... Wheres Luke beatie playing next year???

He has been at Sunbury's pre season training sessions so I'm assuming he's staying..

[crackersisback]

I hear the lake wendouree boys have had a few on the track before christmas. Battistello may have the boys up and going early but they will have to improve significantly after last years efforts

[ExtendTheDukes]

Tuddy not signed yet. And its not $800. Don't be silly.
If we snare McLaren he will be a handy back up ruckman, will be able to give Trav Stephenson a hand.

McLaren was interested in Darley but has decided to play VFL next year.

[SammySuperstar]

if darley did snare mclaren but they arnt he wants another year in the vfl im sure he would of been the main ruckmen with the money he would of been earing.

[RedBalls]

Was wonderin if any of u remember a player from a few years ago by the name of charlie gaffa, he was a sebas boy who was recruited by footscray.... but injury became a problem.

Oracle 69 you have to be upyourself right. I spose u havent been at the North club all that long and even when u were there u must not have been the best player for them either. just accept the fact that north are in the league and there is nothing u can do about it, so get over it.

Oh and one more thing your parents should be tried for crimes against humanity for bringing you into the world

I think you should all get off the North City infatuation and worry about how your own clubs are going to perform and continue to perform in the future!

think the lions will do better than 5th but havnt seen the draw yet! not sure on north, have to see who they get..
ANY THOUGHTS!
East will strugggle to make the 6
I have also herd Sunbury have lost a heap of players K.A might be able to confirm this, but apparently one of either Matt or Mark power are coaching in the Riddel league and are taking 5-6 players from sunbury. While a few others are moving else where. Is this a rumor or can someone confirm this.


Who are the new players sides have recruited for the year. There has not been much talk about any new players for any side for the comming season.

Has Ben Jordan been able to lure his Brother from East over to Sunbury with him.

Speaking with the Darley president sat night - word is that Darley has not signed any one but was in talks with a couple of players. Could be another long year at Devil land this year.

Darley
Sebas
Marsh

Shouldn't that be a final six KA? I reckon the powers that be at Saxon House said if the league moved to 11 teams with the inclusion of the Roosters-Lite franchise then the final six would remain in place.

Yes, Apparently it happened a few years ago. True or false?

I think it has now changed to 5. But not 100%. Anyway that would mean Melton plays finals.

[GG Rides Again]

Is Peter Learmonth still coaching Darley?

[GG Rides Again]

Sorry. His brother Gary

Your correct K.A i have herd the same things comming from devil land. Darley has not signed anyone officially yet so I have been told. But I have also been told in the next week or so they will have 3 pretty handy players signed up I wont give any names but keep your ears open as its just a matter of timemo source tells me . They are 3 players that are all about 6'1 6'2 and can play anywhere add Cape and with the possibility of Digger Edwards and a couple of others returning, with maybe another couple that they are in talks with and the devils will be in much better shape than last year which should not be hard after only winning 4-5 games. How are Sunbury going K.A except the big signing of Libba and B Jordan it sounds like more players are leaving than comming is this true.

[SammySuperstar]

hahaha i can't wait to ask him at training.

I heard that Noodle Cannnard was back and was returning to Darley. Very good player but Darley would need ten of him and more to have any chance.:thumbsd:
