How are Wandella shaping up this year don't know alot about them but they are coming to Bendigo on Saturday to play against Loddon Valley League side YCW. just wondering how they will go?
What ground are they playing that at, just that a few of the grounds down there are pretty average with the lack of water and all that jazz.
Also, havnt seen meehan about for a while, someone must have got under his skin and put him in his place when he was making the bs claim about the young wakool guys leaving for money.

I think it would be fair to say that Murrabit would go in to the season as favourites, if the rumour is true that Whelan has gone down with possibly a serious knee injury. Murrabit have played excellent footy against, admittedly pretty ordinary sides in night comp, but have convincingly defeated those sides. Nullawil seem to be the other danger, apart from Wakool, but it seems that the two guys that have caused Murrabit the most grief over the past few years, in Bode and Hogan, have moved on, and it would seem that if Murrabit got thru the year with a fit Henry, Coulter, Hein etc, and got Josh Bray back early to mid season, they will definitely give the flag a huge shake.

Why would murrabit play south barwon for? they would beat all central murray sides with ease let alone the golden rivers sides, i suppose to become better you have to play against the best.
How will the bombers go agianst YCW vet, is chum going to put himself on McCormick to see if he can get another 10 on him like he did against kerang a few years ago, should be an interesting game with the eagles expected to play finals in the LV with their fast running into space footy, not very accountable side though

I can't really coment on the Wandella v YCW praccy match. Don't know much about the Bombers this season except that they have a few home grown boys back. Trav Smith is apparently training alright and is half the man he was 12 months ago. Even jogging to and from training from North St. to Riverside. He even fits into Richie's No. 28 with room to spare. I know, amazing. May spend a little time on-ball.

Rightly so AV. Good to see the two sides still share that bond.:thumbsu: Mind you South Barwon would probably give the top central murray sides a touch up too. Would have been a fair dinkum hit out for Murrabit who i think are looking at GF appearance this year.

Interesting you say that, the blokes they have lost from last years side are far better players than the ones they have gained this year, and they didn't play in last years final. A less potent Nully may allow this to happen though.

South Barwon have won the last two GFL premierships and are red hot to do it again. They are miles ahead of any club in this area. It was a privellege to play against them, and a good PR exercise. We had a few out, but it wouldn't have mattered... they are absolute freaks.:thumbsu:

Hard to go past Morton out at Murrabit. Picks up his 30 odd posessions a game and rarely says a bad word to the umpires. Others with a chance would be Glenn Smith, Harvey(if he plays), Parker, and will throw in a roughy and say Maeli Felice(Quamby), if he can get thru year without injuries.

These are 2 massive losses for Nully and Hay. Bunyan and Fitzy missing from Hay puts a huge dint in there midfield. I rated Fitzy as the No. 2 ruckman in the comp last year and I would of had Bunyan in the top 6 mids. Parker really hurts Nully's running game, with him a Hogan gone they lose a lot of drive.
Murchie and Rowe will be handy for Macorna because they really lacked mids last year. The big one for the Tiges is Micheal 'Maxy' Walker it gives them a key forward that is a proven goal kicker. I think they need a few more though to trouble any of the top sides.

We didnt look 2 bad. Jem Barbetti had a solid game across half back. Glenn Smith has been a massive boost for nully's drive across the ground. Sam Goldy moved well in the forward line, looks good for a big year. Josh Poyner was another to impress along the backline and playing a bit in the ruck, will be a value contributor this season. The likes of Col Fawcett and Brett Smith chipped in with there usual contributions. Wade Humphrey was moving sensational in the ol New Balance sneakers!!!!:o . For Deni it was obvious that Bode and Fitzpatrick have been massive pickups for the side!

I might be wrong but I heard he played CHF for Echuca Bombers when he was 18 and kicked around the 40 goal mark in a premiership team. I also heard he played for Woorinen and kicked a few goals with them. I thought he played about half a season for Echuca United after being talked out of a hiatus and played a couple in the 2's then 1's for the remainder of the year. Like I said I could be wrong only heard all this second hand.
What have you heard about the guy? I just know Macorna were very happy to sign him. I guess we will see how he goes once the real stuff starts.

I don't know much about the guy to be honest, maybe roota could elaborate? All i know is that he only played about a half a dozen twos games last season, and only registered 1 sausage roll.

Maxy only played a handfull of games last year because he was going to hav some time off to pursue lawn bowls profesionally. Has represented the state at age level.
Apparently is now takin footy back up. He looked very classy when he played a season at Woorinen. Can play any position and will be an excellent player in the Golden Rivers

Done some investigating and there are only 3 on the transfer list heading to the Raiders to play colts, Loomes, Pringle and Pasco. Only Pringle has the footy smarts to play at that level. The last time i seen Loomes play all he done for the day was head hunt the smaller players, not good for a junior trying to make in a higher league.
Interesting to know what there tricks are, if they are short of players in junior ranks why wouldn't they try to keep them.
Still surprising to see no new players from here in Melbourne as I herd there are a few heading up with Harvey.

Hope you are right, but i'm a little more sceptical. It would be great if moula could be competitive and challenge for the 4, but they have a long way to go.
my round 1 tips:
Wandella to beat Moula by 4 goals. Wandella will improve in season 2007 and are flag contenders.
Wakool to flog Hay. Hay in for a long year. Will be interesting to see who lines up for Wakool - Still not many clearances in or out... could slide?
Murrabit slightly over Quamby. The blues always around the mark, while quamby may challenge for a finals berth.
Macorna and Ultima to have a nil all draw. Hard to predict this one, pretty even i would say.

11 Apr 2007, 18:00
BBB i don't think you are to far of the mark with your tips, I think if all wakool players turn this week unlike there practice match against Sealake a few weeks ago, they should win quite easy. The big question will be if harvey is wearing a brown & gold jumper on Saturday.
As for the Wandella i think they have gone under the radar abit with their pick ups over the summer, but moula could come out with all guns firing too, i think it will be a close game.
Murrabit have picked up a few, but i think Quamby have picked up heaps of players, but what type of quality players will be the difference between them winning a few more games this year.
Like you BBB i can't pick who is going to win the game between Macorna & Ultima. both have picked about the same quality and quantity of players.
I hope everyone has a great first week and for Nully they get another weeks rest.

Macorna and Ultima to have a nil all draw. Hard to predict this one, pretty even i would say.

Any of you folks interested in taking the cyber-field in a pretend team? :p

Regional Leagues Fantasy Footy League?
Seeking interest in players for a Regional Leagues fantasy footy comp.
This is a) not real footy and b) not pick-a-team-of-AFL-players footy. Its even lazier!
All you do is express interest, I'll do the rest via QOOTY, a crappy random aussie rules simulator I created years ago and have been trying to bring up to speed. FAQs here : http://www.bigfooty.com/forum/showthread.php?t=75728
I'll try to collate a league of teams that are representative of the more popular local leagues here, so I need raised hands from the posters. I won't make up any names, I won't allow any sudden new arrivals.
So either post here or PM me if you want your Bigfooty alter-ego registered for a team.
Hopefully we can turn some rivalries into some even more potent partnerships!
I'll probably aim for starting the season, say, end of next week. I MAY have to be an inflexible prick with okaying a team and treating latecomers.
For this season, hopefully the inaugural season of an ongoing league, all we need are 20 players per team. There is already a Fantasy league, more closely based on the AFL clubs, at Bigfooty, here : http://www.bigfooty.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=30 - its into its 7th season and has developed a bit of history! There is also another league at another footy forum site, this year with only 3 teams but had been as strong as 5 clubs in its 3 year tenure.
So get in touch if you're interested. Remember you don't have to do anything apart from dob your Bigfooty nickname in for a spot. Please tell me which club/league of regional footy you would prefer to be aligned with (please state both).
We'll see how we go. If it doesn't happen, ah well, if it happens later than I hope ... I'll still give it a burl.
Onward lads! ...
Hope you are right, but i'm a little more sceptical. It would be great if moula could be competitive and challenge for the 4, but they have a long way to go.
my round 1 tips:
Wandella to beat Moula by 4 goals. Wandella will improve in season 2007 and are flag contenders.
Wakool to flog Hay. Hay in for a long year. Will be interesting to see who lines up for Wakool - Still not many clearances in or out... could slide?
Murrabit slightly over Quamby. The blues always around the mark, while quamby may challenge for a finals berth.
Macorna and Ultima to have a nil all draw. Hard to predict this one, pretty even i would say.
I'm guna have to agree with wakool killing hay...
Moula to beat Wandella by 5 goals
Murrabit to beat Quamby by 10 goals
Macorna to beat Ultima by 5 goals
Wait and see!!!!

Wakool to beat Hay
Murrabit an easy win over Quamby
Wandella should get home over Moula
And the Tigers will win at home over Roos

My Tips for Round 1
Wakool over Hay comfortably, interesting to see if guess who rocks up, if he does he will kick 13
Murrabit to defeat Quamby, margin 38 points
U would expect Wandella to get over Moula, but Travy Prior will have his new squad pumped for the game and wouldnt be suprised if Moula got up, but still Wandella just by a goal
Macorna should play the piles of cow dung pretty well and win over Ultima. Mite be a tough year for Ultima this season!
The Bye has recruited heavily over the off season, but Nully should just scrape over the line

Nobody gave Hay a chance against the talked-up Hawks last year but the Hay boys pulled through.
However it is hard to see them do it again this year at Wakool though...just have a look at the long list of losses I have gathered out of the Lions den...
John Fitzpatrick (Deni Rovers)
Simon Bunyan (Lavington)
Daniel Gash (Wedderburn)
Geoff McCallum (Deni Rovers)
Tom Heggaton (Collingullie)
Jayden Beriman (Balranald)
Curtis Biggs (Lavington)
Trent Garner (Wagga Tigers)
Jeremy Winzar (sumwhere?)
Peter Ear-mouth, ooops, Learmonth (retired)
The club is in serious doubt of fielding a reserves team this year and the ongoing talk of a move to the Picoloa league to play against the likes of Finley and Colleambly looks to be an inevidable move.
Almost fair to say that all opposing clubs enjoy their game against the Lions this year as it could well be the last time they lock horns....a sad thing for the league if it happens, but too much travel and a lack of players in the area is taking its toll......

Just a quick factual update. Finley is in the Murray League and Colleambaly is affiliated with the Correen League. Neither of these clubs is currently in the Picola League.
This might be about to change. There is currently a proposal to disband the Correen League with its clubs being shared between the Picola, Hume and Ovens and King Leagues. This is still to be confirmed.

Just heard that Ultima are playing 4 guys from the GFL under the new drought permit system for the first 3 weeks. 4 quality players from that league would give Ultima's team a different appearance. If this is the case some may want to alter there tips.
All rumor and inuendo at this stage, we will find out tomorrow I guess.
