Glen you little gnome, why didn't you ask those 2 blokes when they were sitting beside you on saturday. What about the other ommissions from saturdays side, Delmenico & Roberts? where were they. Have a look at the Guardian, Pickering got best, Griffiths should have been reported and get atleast 2-4 weeks for his effort. The standard of umpiring in this league is crap, blind freddy could see him dong the young Ultima bloke, yet no report.
Roberts and Delmenico are not noted week to week senior players, at least not this year... never said Pickering didnt play well merely posed a question about how he get the footy... you've got no idea who i am so give the whole people guessing a miss, your just embarrassing yourself.

Good reason for that Telstra, he is a genuine CHB -- played most of his footy at CHB, but has proven to be a dominant ruckman in the one year he played there (2005, when he finished runner-up to O'Toole) Has played a bit up forward this year too but CHB is his go. Versatile big man one might say...

chf - No standouts - maybe Auldist
ff- No standouts - maybe Thorpe

couldn't agree more, that's why I have picked him at CHB -- where he played on the wkend
I can see your point Catter but by all acccounts many of the Melbourne crew are ex locals and not on payments of any great amounts. Also some just travelling with there mates and playing in the 2's thus is the reason for their improvement over last month. As for the financial downslide YES it can have a hugh effect on clubs and with Wakool next few seasons will tell all of us on here if it has worked for them. Overall a very good point you have made.
Watched Wakool on the weekend with a full side and apparently have four more coming in. Any team that recruits 15 players surely will put a reasonable 2nds side on the ground. As far as money goes odds on they are spending more dough than some clubs in CMFL. How many blokes are travelling from Melb. to play 2nds. for nothing? Must be top blokes or are their senior mates getting enough to share the love!!!!!!!!!:rolleyes:

hate to tell you iamfooty, but the man went head to head with Big Brendan Mackenzie in the ruck all day except for perhaps 5-10 minutes where he was at CHF
couldn't agree more, that's why I have picked him at CHB -- where he played on the wkend
how could you see the game? i believe you watched half of tyntynder v koondrook game and half of the woorinen v nyah game. is this correct?
and as roosta said, he played ruck all game bar about 10 mins which was spent walking around at half forward
If l has 3 alias' like you l'd look a hell of a lot busier.
there is only 1 of me 69, and i am not who u think i am! but fair call with "mad dog" Griffith not getting reported, on sat i was standing right behind the umpire looking over his shoulder and i seen two of the best jumper punches thrown - no insult to rodmann, but they connected sweetly. Should hav been reported, foung guilty and given 3-4 weeks.

And you say that wakool would beet woora.. a team with the above players in it would not beet woora.. and they are apparently the standouts...... And you cant even find top players in the league for chf or ff... and fb leaves a lot to be desired.... and bode in the ruck... great player but not a ruck a r s e hole..

Everyone saying that Woora is a good side. They are a good side on paper but thats all. They have not came together. They have a team of "champions" but..well you know the rest. Wakool would beat woora no doubt about it. They win one game against Nyah and you think they are world beaters. Grat a grip. Wakool have got players that work well as a team and those teams win games. It would be interesting to if they did put up the 10,000, but wakool would win, not by heaps but will win. The GRFL have got qaulity players but because they dont get the write up every single monday they dont get the respect which they deserve. Wake up to yourself!

Haven't seen Woora play this season so probably can't comment, but im pretty sure wakool would beat other lowly CMFL teams such as Koondrook-Barham. GRFL is not brilliant football, but it's a good comp, and despite what you beleive, the CMFL is not the AFL.

woorinen are a joke.. have no doubt about that... but they would walk all over wakool. you are on here talking about interleague and such and you cant find half of the key position players in the league. you name players that would not play in woora side. and this is suppose to be the best you have.... cmfl is far form the afl.. I just like to put things into perspective.. I have seen them both play. tell me. how can a side that is... smaller. less skill full. less depth. no where near as fit.. that has many travellers.. beat woora..

I said i couldn't comment on Woora.
No one is going to change you mind, but realise that a side like wakool is made up of players with 'major' league experience. Unfortunately you have the mentality that GRFL players are ****, and CMFL players are all guns.

By the way I'll have to see wakool again to make my decision, they didn't impress me last time, at this stage Woora by 3 goals. As for Catter's side, it would go down to Balranald by 4 to 8 goals at least (Gav Loyd resting in a fwd pocket would kick 10) and get over the line against S.H.

Your a disillusioned little boy.
Smaller? Thompson, Wheatley, Thorpe, Carroll, Doyle, Graham, Pollock etc just as big and playing much better footy, not relying on reputations. Less Skill? That amuses me ive seen woora play and it reminded me of grfl reserves
No depth? Wooras bottom 6 would struggle to play senior footy at Moula and a certain Wakool player who was being picked on the bench has transferred to Koondrook Barham and is regularly in their best 5 in the seniors get real and get your c o c k out of the central murrays a r s e

well why are woora's bottom 6 fringe players all playing senior footy at quamby-except demaria of course. think u need to consider what is being said by footy02. u watched woora on the coldest wettest windiest day this yr vs swan hill. so i dont think much can be said. there is a decent level of pace in the whole game between cmfl and grfl. that to me is the biggest deffernce. n i just cant see that wakool would beat woora

The Woora fringe players of last year as you put it that have headed out to quamby would be walk up starts in this years side at Woora.
Agree to disagree on the proposed Wakool matchup, i'd put money on Wakool
Top GRFL sides in general would be competitive with nearly all sides outside the top 5 in the cmfl at this point in time. Thats where the gap starts as the cmfl top 5 sides are progressively better than anything the grfl has to offer.

i think that u have ur head too far up ur a r s e as u are finally having a good yr out at wakool, dont forget that u are spending more money than most cmfl could afford. The woora players may be walk up starts, but they were also in the side that quamby had that nearly beat wakool this yr. if it wanst for a send off and an injury to our best player (at the time!) we had them beat with 10 minutes to go. my money goes to woora

This is why the 2 leagues should join under the 1 banner and have 2 divisions. It would give struggling sides to drop down have some success in div 2 and get back up to division 1 and vice versa. I feel that this may also have a benefit on some clubs in the GRFL for recruitment wise being able to recruit players to a major league. Obviously with 3 clubs talking about leaving the CMFL and talk of the Mallee league having a short future the 2 leagues could be looking at around 18 clubs which would be 9 in each division which would create a bye and maybe give the players who would like a week off during the year this opportunity.
On the woora wakool debate, i havnt seen much of wakool but id just like to know who the hell would be able to stop the likes of kerr, teirney, robertson, prypke? These blokes are quality footballers in the cmfl and could all play in a much higher league. And backmen such as beasy, brooks and roberts would have the measure of most forwards in the grfl let alone wakool on its own. any comments?

Good post. Seems to be an over-representation of Nullawil though (7 players, compared to just one from the reigning premiers?). Atkin, Dillon, Lawry and Humphries could consider themselves lucky, with several better players running around in the comp (in my opinion).

Your full of s h i t footy02. GRFL is not way near as bad as you (tosser) make it out to be. Sure your sides like Moula, Macorna's are very puss, but your top sides would definetly mix it with CMFL's lower sides. There is alot of quality players in the GRFL that would walk into any CMFL side. I bet if you ask Brad Carroll what the leauge is like he would say that when playing the better sides the standard is not that bad. I'm sure the standards c r ap when Balranald plays Woora or Nyah.

I will pull a few strings and organise a post season hitout, although Woorineen will be a bit fresher after at least a month off!

It appears certain you have no idea of what it takes to run a football club or league. there are huge differences between the 2 or three leagues, and it would not be possible for a div 2 team to be consistently be competeive at the higher level. I have been involved in some serious discussion about this and can assure you that it would not work. Money, quality of players, Netball Grades, and Juniors are all factors that nned early consideration, facilities eg 2 grounds, although some facilities in GRFL would be better than CMFL. OH the other major problem is the CMFL board has it head up its arse as it only thinks that there is one league in the district. Top five clubs could be competitive but the fact still remains the standard and styles of football is very different.

you nearly had it right.. very well thought out for the first part however..
the cmfl should only think about the cmfl... and the top 5 would not be competitive.. get serious... same as the ametuers in melbourne.. the top 2 sides form division 2 that go up to one are 9o percent of the time religated the next year.. One club i know of played off in the gf in division 2 and the following year were competitive.. however to do so they recruited 12 good players.. ex afl for a few of them... very good point about the netball and juniors BIGFELLA. good post..

Just my opinion, no need to get angry..pollock has played in every bottom side in cmpl and wouldnt get a game in any side.absolutely unfit.. difference between big players. and big players that are fit, quick and HARD at the footy.. Thorpe is rather old. still good footballer.. As for catters side. I would say 10 to 12 goals down to balranald..
read the post about the ametuers in melbourne.. true account of what the differece is like.. any they are clubs that do not struggle for numbers.. and have no travellers, get 40 to 50 at training, have depth.. and they still cant crack the top division..... work it out....

Dont get me wrong, I am in no way in support of combining the leagues to create 2 divisions, would not be good for footy in our region.
Think your a bit harsh on Pollock, was no 1 ruckman at a side that played off in the Prelim final in the cmfl just a few years back and when on song takes some stopping. Not in great form at the minute but nether are the big guys mentioned in previous posts.
Catters side was pretty ordinary, could name another side from the league that would flog that one so don't take too much from that.
Depth is the key when comparing leagues/ teams etc. something which metropolitan clubs have plenty of thus making it difficult to make a comparison. The lack of depth in the lower echelon of cmfl clubs is the reason why the best couple of teams in the grfl would match it with them and probably beat the bottom couple.

So who was the serious discussion between on this topic and what were the outcomes? Was there an enquiry done and where has it been documented so that the public can have a look for themselves. I agree with the CMFL board statement but in my opinion neither league will move forward unless we become a major zone for football and with new infastructure and types of work reportedly moving to this area shorely employment opportunities come up and these 2 leagues could work TOGETHER to make football better in the area.

agree with pollock.. can take stopping.. can play footy.. when he is fit..
The only way football will improve in the area is if a major university is built....... Hope glenn stewart achieves this...

What type of isde would you assemble. Quick note its great to talk footy on the site for once. Some reason the Ultima boys have been either a bit quiet or talking sense
This week ends tips:
Murrabit v Moulamein : Moula's woes to continue, Josh Logan a standout
in a struggling side while M'bit boys will be happy
to take the points.
Nullawill v Macorna: Pat's Tigers riding high but tough assignment at Nully
Bode's side ticking along nicely, Maroons by 32 pts
Quamby v Hay: Arguably game of the round,both sides match up well
but its Hay for me in a tough encounter, 17 pts.
Ultima v Wandella Another close encounter, Matt Chamberlain playing
great footy for his beloved bomber's, but Ultima to win
and atone for last week
*CMFL supporters love watching players like Arentz doing his thing in the square, big Lloyd'y taking yet another big grab and and Mr Filo duckin and weavin, the faithful at Boga bringing the house down, and as such, the GRFL supporters love watching their heroes, Fingers talkin it up,the sheer determination of blokes like, Pryor, Bode,Bray,Pelligrino, Lukey Maher, Harvey and many others. Lets drop the "who is the best King ****" competition and remember that footy is a game for all the people to enjoy on ALL levels and the sooner the AFL and their netball game, together with the VCFL and their own agenda's butt out, the better.
This week ends tips:
Murrabit v Moulamein : Moula's woes to continue, Josh Logan a standout
in a struggling side while M'bit boys will be happy
to take the points.
Nullawill v Macorna: Pat's Tigers riding high but tough assignment at Nully
Bode's side ticking along nicely, Maroons by 32 pts
Quamby v Hay: Arguably game of the round,both sides match up well
but its Hay for me in a tough encounter, 17 pts.
Ultima v Wandella Another close encounter, Matt Chamberlain playing
great footy for his beloved bomber's, but Ultima to win
and atone for last week

What type of isde would you assemble. Quick note its great to talk footy on the site for once. Some reason the Ultima boys have been either a bit quiet or talking sense
Just one i've quickly thrown together, assuming I cant use those in your side
B Smith D Thompson J Condely
L.Maher R Lancaster M Felise
Harrison S Pearse S Hutchins
J Bray J Carroll B Hein
L Wilson N Henery M Free
S Laidlaw B Hogan P Morris
Would like to include Dickson, Morton, Whelan, Fitzpatrick, Harvey, Graham, Parker, Bode ideally
Both preety good sides. If you could use the ones I had who would you use. I was picking on current form rather then reputation.

Good to see some sense has been restored - well done spoton.
This weeks tips are:
Ultima to defeat Wandella by 2 points in match of the round.
Murrabit to overcome injury concerns and account for Moula by 67 points
Nullawil to bring Macorna down to earth to the tune of 54 points
Hay to beat Quamby by 24 points, but don't be surprised by a Saints victory.

If you read my post carefully telsta you will see that i have tried to name a side that did not feature any players from catters side.
I have then mentioned at the bottom the players that I would include from catters side in normal circumstances which incidently includes Wakool players.
No apology required from you

The only injuries at Nully is Korpy. T Doran is playing is first game in the 2's tomorrow, ever. He got picked to play 2's for Woomalang years ago but declined. Not a bad effort
GOLDEN RIVERS VS CENTRAL MURRAY.

Just my opinion, no need to get angry..pollock has played in every bottom side in cmpl and wouldnt get a game in any side.absolutely unfit.. difference between big players. and big players that are fit, quick and HARD at the footy.. Thorpe is rather old. still good footballer.. As for catters side. I would say 10 to 12 goals down to balranald..
read the post about the ametuers in melbourne.. true account of what the differece is like.. any they are clubs that do not struggle for numbers.. and have no travellers, get 40 to 50 at training, have depth.. and they still cant crack the top division..... work it out....Who is the wakool bloke now playing at koondrook/barham??

I took the question as GFL v CMFL interleague game. I cant have an opinion on Woora v Wakool as I've seen neither. Would be close though.

Can anyone report on what took place out at Ultima yesterday? Bombers kicked a staggering 14 goals in the first term, and another 7 in the second to crush the roos. Is it true Morris had 10 goals to half time, then left the field with an injury?
That is amazing stuff coming from a side who has been struggling. Ultima fans must be disappointed.
Quamby upset Hay, proving they are not far off the pace, and that Hay still have a lot of work to do.
Macorna back to earth with a thud, and Moulamein at a season low as the blues and marroons boost their percentage in the race for a double chance.
Any news / thoughts?

Nice tipping SS. Did you go watch your match of the round prediction? You were close with that one! You were pretty generous on Moula's loss as well. Murrabit were always going to win by a lot. Would have expected more from Macorna after efforts in the previous week, Nully must have turned it on, and Quamby over Hay, well the Woorinen two's, I mean Quamby ones must be finally clicking!

I don't think anyone would have predicted a flogging like that. It was 5th vs 6th and a fight to stay in contention, so it seemed like the logical choice for match of the round. Ultima must be shattered.

Very good fellas, although looking back I do agree with Snoopers point. I don't think anyone would have picked such a blowout from Wandella against Ultima. Ol Tripper didn't realise it was 5th V 6th, so apologies to you SS. I'm prepared to stick my neck out for this weeks game, so if someone could inform who plays who that would be good.

on peoples judgement who is early favorite for clubs b&f and leagues b&f
Hard to pick considering i haven't seen teams play regularly... but here goes...
Club B&F
Wakool: G Whelan, A Kearney, J Doyle. three way tie
Nullawil: Ben Parker
Murrabit: Brad Hein
Hay: Simon Bunyan
Wandella: Greg Dickson
Ultima: not Luke O'toole for the first time for a while i would imagine.
Quamby: Luke Maher
Macorna: Stephen Pearce
Moulamein: Josh Logan
League Medal: Ben Parker.
Tips this week boys" couple of upsets last week, thats footy.
Nully up at Hay will prove too strong, look for a better showing from Hay this week. Nully by 33 pts
Tigers take on the Blues at Tigerland and even though Tigers regain a few from last week, Blues to win by 44 pts
Wakool and Ultima, wont be as close as the first round, and the Hawks at home will be too strong for the Roos, Hawks by 64pts
Wandella v Quamby: After accounting for Hay last week and Choco's Bombers flattening the Roos, this is match of the round. In a hard fought battle,i'm leaning towards the home ground advantage of the bombers and they will win by 11 pts
Good luck to all!!

greg dickson for me. Would win our B&F now if he did not play another game for the year. Has dominated in every game played. Just hope we can secure him next year as clubs are alraedy approaching him for season 07.

Joking u sure are Pat, why do u think he is tagged every game. Maybe the opposition know he is a quality player with a work-rate like only too few. I've watched plenty of footy at Bomberland and he's one of the best kids I've seen, many clubs chasing him in CMFL. So u might as well hop back down your hole and try and wipe the paint out of your eyes while your at it! :p
