I think Morto, Brad Hein, Shane Hutchins and Nats Henry would have something to say about that
Firstly, Morto struggles to kick. Hein is a sniper. Hutchins has left the district, hasn't he?? Finally, Henry has to rely on upfield efforts to be effective. I know who I would back if Murray and any of these blokes were in a contest at the ball.

Hutchins is leaving but i am basing this on 2006 performances.
The first bloke i would pick in my team would be a matchwinner, a quality, for all his determination, Murray doesn't possess.
Hein may be a sniper but can be very damaging (on the scoreboard) on his day. Morton is very prolific and sets up scoring opportunities for his more polished team mates. And who would knock back a guy whom is likely to kick you close to 100 goals every year in Henry. Must be more value than a hard at it, accountable, negater?

He is alot more consistant than these guys. I know what you are saying, but I would rather know what you are going to get week in week out. Good points though, September.
Moving away from that... how are the Royal Blues looking thus far?

hein is definatetly a sniper who can't back it up with his ugly bald head. morton is, as u said ok until he has to kick and henry, while being big is no where near close to being up there with an arentz or a carroll

What's to say Henry isn't up there with those two?? He has proved himself kicking alot of goals. Weather you say he gets fed well or not, he still has to kick'em through. Are you saying you can kick as many as he has:confused:

So are you saying that he is up there with two of the best full forwards in country footy are you Grippo?
I think it is fair to say that he is not, not at the moment any way. A very good player but not at the level of the two mentioned and there aren't many that are

No I am not saying he's the best in country vic, but am giving credit where it is due. If you read back a little, some say it's because he is fed well. All i say is he still has to do something right doesn't he?

most full forwards need to be fed well, arentz gets fed a lot, haven't seen henry play but obviously he's doing something right, otherwise he wouldn't be kicking 100+ goals in a season.

If you saw him kick 24 goals 3 behinds in a game, majority from 50m + your opinion may change slightly. Would back him to do very well in CM

Don't think Lalbert have granted a clearance yet and from all reports they will fight tooth and nail to keep all 06 players and rightly so given their predicament, therefore Sait and Rooney may struggle to line up with the blues

Actually ben, you had three opponents that day, Chris Murray being the third, and you only kicked 2 or 3 of your 7 on him.
You did play well that day, but unfortunately you have been unable to reach those heights since.:thumbsd:

Interesting to see the way Chocco has to go about getting a clearance to Wandella. I see he has now signed back at East Geelong, where footy has been put back a long way, but special drought match permits can be issued to play with clubs in other leagues. I'm guessing he is doing this because Kerang won't clear him??? Surely Kerang would let a bloke go and play with his brother who is coaching :confused:

Pretty sure East let him go last year on the proviso he would be cleared back in 2007. Think Kerang are keen for Wandella to deal with East because of this arrangement.

Well i don't think you will have too much to worry about down there.
coming from a poor side it is hard to say what they would be like surrounded by more quality players.
Missed the first 6 or so games and ended up kicking around 15 goals each last year.
Probably doesn't tell you much but it could be a start.

Big difference catching a ball in the afl, to catching a ball in the grfl. he'd park himself inside 50 and slot through 100ish without too many troubles.

Powerhouse? was that a typo?
must have coke bottles too see draw lalbert v ultima march 16th
anyway half g/rivers teams are cmfl players anyway, and on good $,s.perhaps they need a pts system too, for the long term viability of the league.

Potentially yes SS,but he has spent his whole career spoiling,didnt see him catching too many,Harvey would have a field day under him,but again for the money he would command he would have to kick in excess of 150.Again his kicking is very suspect,so if all you want is someone to provide a contest,surely there is someone about at a little cheaper market value.
Surely you don't seriously think Jon Hay would struggle playing GR footy. You are ubviously a frustrated Hawthorn supporter but put that aside my friend, he would carve it up out there & not just provide a contest as you so generously suggested. All hypothetical anyway.
no ifs no buts can confirm Jonathan Hay has brought a property in downtown Murrabit, so rumours that he may line up in the Hawks colours may yet prove to be correct. Come on Meehan how come you didn't know about this?

Just heard that Billy Hewitt has broken his wrist and may have a possible fracture to his eye socket - happened at the weekend playing cricket. Will miss a few games.

You heard wrong footy maniac. He was hit in the head with a bouncer on Satdy requiring stitches and apparent surgery as reproted by Swan Hill docs, but on arrival in Bendigo at the surgeons yesterday morning was told he does not require any surgery at all on his face, and he can take the plaster off his wrist in 10 days and all will be fine.
Would be a shame if it was true as he has been burning up the track, with a Level 13 stage 9 on the beep test

Thanks for clarifying Tripper - you know what rumours are like. Obviously someone was trying to shut him up with a bouncer! Everyone knows the boy can mouth!

Well there was truth in the rumour for a day, but the Bendigo doctors cleared that up.
The boy can mouth, but the boy can also play.

May have something to do with his friendship with Harvey. As i said Roota,
may see him in Hawk colors, nothing definate. I would imagine it to be a large boost for GRFL stocks if he decides to play, wether it be Murrabit or Wakool. Great for local footy, by the way Roota, gettin many jobs in Bendigo?

Word is that he will play with Murrabit if he plays at all. Probably unlikely though.

Don't worry about Harvey friendship lads. Murrabits 2 Head Honcho's are meeting with him tonight to put it all together. He may not be a Murrabit for preason but strong chance to line up come round 2 or 3.
Well done boy's:thumbsu:

Would be great to see Hay in the league but why would a guy with depression want to buy land in Murrabit during a drought. The drought has been the cause of more depression than any other single factor in the country. It might just be me but I find this a little amusing.
Why we are on Murrabit I see Lalbert cleared a couple of those guys that had clearances in. I was under the impression that they were going to really fight to keep every player they could. I guess if someone wants to leave there isn't much you can do.
Can anyone tell me about the guys Ultima have got from Tyntynder, are they just making up the numbers or are there some genuine players amongst them. None of the names ring a bell from the Bulldogs senior side last year.

The house he is whispered to have purchased for around the 700k mark has minimal land more so a great location 50m from the river bank.
Could be a release for him getting out of the hustle of the big smoke.

A night too late as Raiders hierachy met with him last night so there will obviously be a bit to this story.Word is he may want to play a bit higher standard of footy and the Raiders boys seem very happy with the way the meeting went:cool:

You would think the quality big fellas in both the CMFL & GRFL would look forward to playing against such a big name, to see where they are at. There would be some interesting match ups for Hay in both leagues you would think.

Who are some players we need to watch in the GRFL in the night series next week, i see that all three teams have a number of inclusions. Who is worth a look?

Ettershank back at Murrabit, should go alright. Interesting to see where he plays, forward or back... Also the three from Lalbert Sait, Rooney and Kingwill should put in a good performance at a new club.Quamby seem to have quite a few new names so they could be a surprise packet?

Hey Vet, interesting to see Luke ''chubby'' Fulton has signed with Wandella, do you see him having much of an impact out there?

Yes interesting inclusion there. I think you'll see him on the centre square somewhere. Played most of his footy in the back half with the Raiders. More of a contributing player rather than take hold of a game by the throat type player.
Has Jonathon Hay been seen around the river banks yet, September? Serpant tells me that he may still head to a certain NSW club.

Very ironic that Chubby makes the decision to trade the Raiders garb for Wandella's, especially after good mate Dicko goes into town. Dicko had been trying to get Chubby to play at Wandella for a few years now.
