One Only St D's player went to OP's this season, none from this years 17's will go, they just do not like the OP's, they have a affliation, but this more so they can use the OP's grounds, till Binnak gets proper lights(works commence in Oct 06).
St M's more of those go to OP's but one of their players dads is coaching the Bundoora Under 19's next season(Bill Price) so most will go there.
As for St D's, three will stay with the Knights,two will go to Bundoora, two to Watsonia, one to Creek and one to Eltham, the rest will not play, and if you see where they are on the ladder you will understand why they are on the bottom. However there are two who walked out because of the coach, both are off to South Morang
Don't expect too many from Bundoora 17's, 3/4 of them play with Craigieburn Under 18's on Saturday and are bussed up each Sunday to play with Bundoora.
Is that you PK ?

Funny that.. I can't see where Matchwinner said he left for money?
Bundoora have played Mont once and won a close fought game by11 points - and only beat Lalor by 10 points - neither can be considered "smashings". Get your facts straight factual.
It must be hard when you left school at 7 to grasp technology or even worse still can't understand basic english - get back to pumping petrol and cleaning windscreens at your local servo. I was highlighting the fact that Mitchell DID NOT leave Lower for money!!!!!
As for your comments about the gap between the top two and the others, even the great bombers of 2000 only lost 1 game during the home and away season. When the silverware comes out, it will clearly be between 2 teams, if you think otherwise give me your phone number I have some ice to sell you eskimo.

More garbage - he didn't go for the money. It could only be the people and the place. As for playing the higher standard, more crap their is only 2 real teams and they smash everyone else anyway. He could play VFL. It comes down to the people & the place.
Of course why wouldn't he leave like the many before him.
Where did I say that he left for money you fool. I said he left to play at a higher level - ie. better standard. Yes it will most likely be between two teams this year, but it's not as if Bundoora have been winning flag after flag in recent times, so to assume the two clubs are so much superior to everyone else is wrong.

Perhaps you should try and grasp English, or the facts as your name indicates. Go back and read what I wrote and try and find where I referred to Dave leaving for money. You wont find it Mr Factual!!! Maybe you should put yourself through school again! See if you can pass this time.

Yeh no probs bud. Lower have probably had enough said about them this week. I'm just passionate about the club i play at, as i'm sure most blokes are with their teams, but I'll give them a break for a while! Not sure how you'll go with Brutal though. He's even more passionate than me!!!

If you read back over the posts buddy… I think you will find that I'm not the one in dire need of an English lesson. You clearly say that Matchwinner indicated that HE DID leave for money - whereas as I was pointing out do you that Matchwinner never said that.
Are you confused? or have has my petrol pumping logic got the better of you??
As for my comments about the top two…. - again I never said there wasn’t a gap or that the top two wouldn't play off.. I was merely correcting your mistake.. you claim they "smash" every team they play.... yet Bundoora hasn't.
I might be a windscreen wiper – but you are clearly a window licker

i play for Lower, yet am sick of reading so much **** about us.
i gotta have my say though.
People have been talking about players we have lost. There is no doubt many of the young players that have left us would be great assets right now. Cookson, Galvin, Mitchell, Neill are all good players. But for various reasons they have left the club. Dissapointing obviously. Everyone plays sport for different reasons. Mitchell and Neill obviously want to play at the highest level they can, whilst Galvo and Cooky want to enjoy playing with mates.
But if i look at our current list, i cant think of one player who is there for money. I know a few of the younger fellas that could be getting more $$$ elsewhere, but want to play with their mates. There is not divide between contracted, uncontracted and under 19 players. Out social functions are great at the moment, some of our leading partiers have never played a senior game in their life, but it is irrelevant. We have a great bunch of kids in the under 19's, and the core of the senior side is young, and assuming everyone sticks together for the next 5 years, the club is looking great.
In the past the club may have focused too highly on "buying" players, but this attitude no longer exists.

I think you will soon see this change mitch if you get back up into div 1. The only way you can stay up and then be successful in div 1 football is if you go out and buy some players. That is a fact.
On the move, the fact that pretty much all brutal has spoken about for the last week is myself shows that he would love to have me running around in the lower strip and they regret letting me go
Very true Benjamin and you know I`ve been a long standing member of the Ben Cookson fan club. As for "On the move" I don`t know what his game is, but he should take his own advice and read through other posts, because apart from my tongue in cheek response to the original post from King Cobra, I have and I`m sure he has know idea of what he`s on about.
Who the hell is cookson30 u trying to stir up trouble brutal!!!!!!
Not me champ, but I have been informed that you are not Ben Cookson but a 30yo 2`s player instead. Perhaps a Ben Cookson wanna be!

Ok they are going to stay up this year but what about the coming years. They might stay up for a few years but to gain regular finals appearances and win flags you need to spend the money on players to get you their or you will just become another mediocre side like Epping and Eltham.

So first u say that to sat yup u need to buy players. When proved wrong by someone using the creek example u then say u have to buy players to win a flag. I disagree. The key to playing finals and winning a flag is depth. During winter, ur gonna have 10 blokes out with injuries. Are you gonna have 32 players playing only for the coin? no. Yes, buying a few good players helps but im of the belief that the key to a successful side is unity and depth. Not the dollar

If what I have heard is correct, Nth Heidelberg won a flag last year spending less than $60000 compared with the reputed $190000 that Heidelberg spent to be runners up. If true it would suggest that anything is possible and obviously Creeks depth and having a consistent flow of good juniors in the future may outweigh the need to spend a fortune. Also Bundoora are quoted as saying that they only spent $68000 last season, the two biggest spenders were Heidelberg and Montmorency last season. This season my sources have told me that Heidelberg and Mont are still the big money spenders, with Bundoora up on what they spent last season. In div 2 I know of 1 club that is spending div 1 wages, between 60 and 70k and that will be there budget should they get promoted to div 1 and at this point they are favourites to do so.

where do clubs get this money from?

Well Heidelberg is obvious, god forbid if Trevor gets hit by one of his trucks (That`d be Karma wouldn`t it). Apparently even though Nth Heid spent so little comparatively to win a flag they were still broke at the end of the year. Must have been some cheap **** on sale at those celebrations or alot of money in brown paper bags going out the back door. It may surprise that even the so called successfull clubs struggle with player payments. Bundoora and Nth Heidelberg are two clubs that have asked players to take pay cuts in the previous 1 or 2 seasons, Nth`s was the most talked about where they told players at the start of last season to accept a pay cut or be given an open clearance, could be why some of those guys have moved on, won a flag, get bigger money elsewhere.

Very cryptic Brutal :p Pretty sure we all know who that is.
If it's $60K, then that's about $3,000 per week.
Base payments (according to a mate that plays there) are $80 per game. So that's $1,760. Then there's bonuses for the best five players (I think, going from memory here) of $100, $80, $60, $40, $20 so that's another $300. That leaves about another $1,000 per week for extra payments to the "name" players on more than the base wage.
Don't know much about Div 1 - does anyone know if that level of expenditure would be enough to remain competitive if they go up?

have to question blokes motivation if all they play local footy is for the almighty dollar. Fair enough its a nice bonus but having a kick with ur mates somewhere where u feel at home has to be the priorty of most.

When you loose tte ones and twos by a combined total of 388 points I would think it was time to keep your mouth shut .The foul and racial language and umpire abuse from the Epping supporters was very ordinary.No wonder HBERG are l ooking to move comps .Beware,Trewie is back in a big way!!.:thumbsd:

lets just hope creek are old school and dont give no one up. Creek should just let this one ride and next time they play they should square up. The game is full of give up's these days what happened to the old days where blokes turned a blind eye. When lalor played eltham in the 2's last week an eltham player came off a bit worse for wear after after an incident with lalor player. Eltham laged him in to the invetigastion and he got 4. Where have all the staunch blokes gone? A give up in my eyes is in the same boat as a pedophile.:mad: im sure you would agree gytm, give ups are the dog rat scum of the earth

The 'unofficial players code of conduct' is a bit of a joke.
In effect it is just a tool for the cowards who commit thug acts on the field to hide behind. They're happy to whack a bloke when he's not looking, but then want the same bloke to stand up for them to save them weeks. It's a joke.
I'm not advocating giving up a bloke for the average one or two week charge/strike if they're a touch late to a contest, or a bit of a jumper punch, etc. But the complete dog act, king-hit when the ball is up the other end is deadset pathetic. I reckon the victims should help the weak fcuks get as many weeks as they can, and then go after them in a civil proceeding if they're out of pocket for medical bills, time off work, etc.
That's one of the main problems with DV footy these days - too many tossers who think that sort of sh|t is "part of the game".

Then after all this tough talk called the police and wanted to press charges . i think this one is one of the all time classics HE WHO LIVES BY THE SWORD SHALL DIE BY THE SWORD from what i have heard from my source it was a bad thing that happened but he could ve prevented it but why get police involved you wont be any better off he ll probably get a fine thats about it If someone knocked my teeth out i know what id be doing and it would nt be through legal channels no one ever wins

As the resident clubs Salary specialist Brutal, give us ladder from most paid to least of DV 1st Division clubs based on your knowledge.
Not a specialist mate, but I would believe that Heielberg, Mont and Bundoora are your top 3 in that order, it would not surprise me if a club like Eltham is paying a bit of cash as their was reports that Bongetti was on 500, I`d imagine that Contessa is not on any less, but I would think that most of the other clubs are spending between 60 to 75k per season, reports that King at Epping is on $1000 per game but that he is very loyal and good around the club.

Depends on your defenition of not much, I believe that Monts budget is around the 100k mark and info comes from a variety of people involved at Mont, some who are involved in there football department. Bundoora would be less than that, just based on what you here around the traps that $350 is there top dollar.

Not really too many injuries - certainly not enough to use them as an excuse. Yeo and Witcher did not play, still missing Ottens. Just not travelling well at all at the moment...

First of all I am not on this forum to makes friends or enemys, so if I upset someone with what I have to say then BOO F U C K I N G HOO... I tell the truth about facts of which I am directly involved in, or very well informed from my various reliable sources around the Valley.
The incident to which you are referring was in fact started by Eltham player #60 who not only whacked the Lalor bloke in the guts not once but twice 100 METRES OFF THE BALL, he also SPAT on him when he retaliated. Funnily enough our bloke and the club chose to keep this to themselves, as we just dont lag. So truth be told, the bloke copped his right whack, plain and simple. It is not the first time (and I doubt it will be the last) that Eltham have called upon their mates in the upper echelons at the DV to initiate a tribunal hearing. They just forget to explain their part in the situation... funny that.
Call me old fashioned, call me stupid, whatever... In no circumstances do you ever tell tales, especially if you have copped your right whack. Cop it on the chin and square up another time... I guess thats just the way I was bought up, but if being a lagger is the right thing to do, then id much rather be wrong.
I dont want to get into a name calling dispute with you, but I do take on board that you think some of my mates and my club is a disgrace... But id rather that with the history we have as team-mates and as a club, than to be known around the Valley as the deplorable, weak as p i s s unit that you obviously are. Think about, and know what you are talking about before you start slinging s h i t.

Waddo,
Hurstbridge U19's played Lower Plenty on the weekend and lost by about 6 or 7 goals. They were sitting 2nd and had beaten Lower previous time they played. Lower now 2nd and Hurstbridge 3rd. They didnt have a bench and had injured players who had to stay on the ground.
They were shoty due to a number of 19's playing seniors. Will play finals as they are 3 games clear of 5th.
They also havent been helped by the fact that their ground is being redone which means that they have been using a temporary ground at the Diamond Valley Tech. This ground has been out of action for a few weeks due to its condition. Last weekends match was actually a Hurstbridge Home game but played at Lower.

Can the bears 19's go all the way after thier big win. How many players do they lose to the ones each week, could be a Boro vs Bears GF? All goes well for the future should that happen.
