In regards to the side, they are stacked with talent no doubt about it, Blokes like Haydock, Lowther, Williams and to an extent Micky Gay slip under your guard now and then because you just cant cover them all. Someone always bobs up and plays well, even if one bloke is having a shocker, they seem to cover it well. In regards to the racist stuff, it was actually said by a person of the same race. Apparantly there were a few people disappointed in that, but each to their own. Id rather not comment.
Yeah that's true. Okay, good on ya pal :thumbsu:

why didnt luke trew play? do both nolans play? the burgers should bring it home this season u think ?
I didnt say anything about getting the chocalates, but I was confident we could close them down a bit better. Heidelberg was prepared to run harder, work for each other and it showed in the end. We were undisiplined, unaccountable and lazy, plain and simple. Heidelberg were fantastic, Murphy was good, Stingas disposal (especially his delivery into the forward line) was first rate and they were much fitter than us. We do have blokes to come into the side still, but thats no excuse. We were beaten by a better team on the day. Although Heidelberg arent as physical as other sides, their run, their use of the ball and their willingness to make every contest is first rate.
Good to see the old wack blockes behind play when the game is over by the Lalor U/19 is alive and well. Cant beat them at footy, lets start fights. Something never change.

I didn't see Trew out on the park, but I'm sure both Nolans were there. Hmm not sure just yet, apparently Mont are the ones to beat this year. I haven't heard much about the Buldogs this year so am looking forward to getting along to one of their matches asap.

they dont have to be behiend to start fights and hit players behiend the play the used to do it when there were in front aswell there has always been problams between creek and the bloods espesh in the juniors, the prob is its only a handful of ppl that ruin it which is a shame cause both clubs have a lot of good blokes.

A couple of the top sides from last season in divi 2 haven't started the season too well - Mernda and South Morang. One of those sides will still be without a win after round 3, as they play each other this week. Lower were very impressive after a slow start on Saturday. Believe it was 5 goals each in the first quarter before Lower took complete control.

The Bears were very good on Saturday, but I really think Mernda are struggling. Lowers talls are gunna be very hard to stop this season, not many sides in div 2 can cover them i wouldnt think, and Bandera is still to come back in. Should be a good game vs ressa this week.

Didnt see it myself OX, but if I remember correctly it was the Creek players and supporters who instigated a brawl after the final against Sth Morang last year. It was a Creek player, Bobby Ram who got how many years for whacking an umpire... So before you get on here talking your crap, look in your own backyard.
Somethings never change... and thats why Creek will always struggle. Always have, always will. Because imbeciles like you bring the joint down. My apologies to any of the decent Creek folk I have unintentionally insulted. :thumbsu:

over the last few years heidleberg have been a good football team but had thier weakness exposed in last years granny where they were beaten by a harder more physical team i know footy has changed but sometimes you have to do things the old way by throwing a couple if it means winning a premiership but hopefully they have learnt from last year otherwise they will just be pretenders again

you dont have to "throw a couple" to physically intimidate a side. Hard attack towards the ball and the opposition within the rules will be enough. If u have to resort to cut lunches, then u dont deserve to win.

Heidelberg moved the ball well on the weekend TOC. I picked North to win the flag last year in June, but from what I saw on the weekend they have the mixture to go all the way. Maybe the losses of King, Ryan, Heatley and Powell might prove to much for the Doggies in 2006. This is simply an observation. I hope im wrong, but they did play well.
And there is nothing wrong with a bit of biff (especially in big games), and any footballer that tells you there is aint worth listening too... :thumbsu:

yeah, we all get amongst the biff from time to time, and i must say its a great way to get fired up!!! and there are plenty of blokes in the Valley that deserve everything they get.

i wasnt saying go out there and just bash a bloke but nth heidleberg proved it last year by a bit of physical intimidation letting the heidleberg players know that they would give a few out which worked in thier favour and won them a granny but this year its a different story with north not looking as thier biggest threat and in all honesty not just cause thier my club but the parkers should have won rnd 1 they were the better team on the day just bad kicking and a couple of very poor desicions from the umps that cost them so for me mont and heidleberg look like the yard stick at the moment
by the looks of the bulls they seem to have a very strong list this year what do u take of the following players triston simmons anthony ruggiero , dave attard seem to be future leaders of the club doeas ne1 have thoughts on these players:thumbsu:

1. it was the south morang fans behiend the goals on the back of the truck that jumped the fence and started the fight so ur wrong there
2. bobby ram never wacked the umpire he push and threated the umpire and got a long ban for a bad record so ur wrong there
3. how about the bloke who bit one of creeks under 17's about 5 years back and never played again
4. i remember years ago in one of my 19's games a guy elbowing me in the jaw as i chased another player out of the 50 and then when i pushed him afterwards with my jaw out as big a melon a guy from the bench hit me in the back of the head
once again its only a few blokes that make this happen i'm prepared to be civil knowing that every club has these blokes and move on and enjoy a game of footy y cant some others?

Sounds like the truth hurts Mail man. As MelbDocker said I think you need to get your mail redirected as your getting the wrong information.
Creek will always struggell as they dont have the cash to go out and give players like Aron James $500 a game plus be on the payrol of a supporters company and never turn up for work. How many years did he play for again.Good clubman he was. And you have a go at Heidelberg.

while he was at club always at functions and he did kick a 100 for us so he was good clubmen just wish he had a crack at dvfl div 1...

He can be handy at times but needs things going his way, is lazy and not the smartest footballer going around at times. Can pull down the big mark as well, although he would be more than likely to kick it out on the full from the goal square.
As for staying up, lets hope so. Winning last week was a huge start. One quarter and a bit of first div expericance cost us against Eltham. From all the talk Epping are struggeling so if we win those games we'll be a chance.

Whattya mean truth hurts... you want truth ill give it too ya. Jamesy was on alot more than $500, he was a good clubman, and many of the Lalor boys including myself are still in contact with him. The difference between my club and the likes of Heidelberg and your mob is that we have in fact had alot of success over the last 15 or so years. 3 qtrs of the kids playing in our 19s are actually under 17s, and by you gobbing off and saying that our KIDS were whacking blokes behind play is bulls h i t. Get out of your division 2 comfort zone and get up with it.
I agree with Kanga, I beleive Creek can and will stay up this year if they just take the opportunity by the knackers, and by worrying yourself about things like a couple of kids from both sides throwing their weight around, just shows the rest of the comp that maybe your not mentally strong enough to take up the challenge presented to your club in 2006.

Now now mailman lets just settle down a bit. A small off the cuff remark by myself and its turned into a slangging match. Lets just leave it there. And $500 was just a figure I used as an example, I know it was more.

Were Greensborough at full strength Round 1 against Lower, or do they have a few to come back in from that game? I believe Lower controlled most of the game except the first ten to fifteen minutes of the third quarter, where Greensborough slammed on some quick goals?? I guess that's why it's called the premiership quarter though!!!

Think Lower at full strength so far this season except for their captain Bandera and Mark White, who had very good first quarter against Greensborough before getting injured. Also possibly one other player, who was a 19's player from last year and showed a lot of form in practice matches until injured. Was wondering if Mernda had many injuries, cause I expected them to be a bit better than they were on Saturday.

Mernda won't even make the finals this year. Last year they got an easy draw and that's the only reason why they made it. Injuries or not they won't be good enough. I doubt the blokes out will make that much of a difference anyway? It's definetly looking like Greensborough Vs Lower GF. Hurstbridge will play finals, because they now have the easier draw after last seasons terrible performance. South Morang & Panton Hill have lost way too many players to be competetive this season. Macleod, Whittlesea & Reservoir most likely to make up the rest.

No doubt there is a big difference between the 2, but what do you expect Lower to do? Just roll over and not win divi 2 if they are able to, to avoid embarrassment in division 1! Lower were able to get some very talented footballers to the club during their time in division 1, (Sexton, Jess, Arnold, Lambertini, Cartwright, Roberts, Schaefer, Millar, Briggs, Dell, Dawson, McGee, Singh, Polley, etc.) but unfortunately none stayed for longer than a season or two, so they have taken a different approach and are now building thru youth. Hopefully it will pay off in the long run.

the Div 1 to Div 2 difference is massive. But I also reckon the side Lower has on the park in 2006 is better than what was representing the club quite often in 2005. There are young players which have improved again, and the return of Andy Knee is big. He is twice as good as any player who left the club after '05.

Mont and Bundoora have the depth over the Bergers and North. I think it will come down to injuries in September. As a viewer of DVFL games having seen the DOggies, Burgers, Lalor, Parkers and Mont first hand, Mont were the most impressive but they have a suspect finals record. I think that Mont are the biggest chokers ever. THe Burgers should have won more flags and if the won last year we would treat them differently. Gotta remeber they missed the finals two years in a row the year before they won the flag. The Doggies just know how to scrap it out but there key players are getting on and they lost some guns over summer. Saw Laor V Burgers on Sat. Not tryingto annoy the Lalor boys on here but there was some infighting going on durring the last quarter and some very undiscplined acts. Justin Murphy cruised around without a tagger most of the day and hardly got out of a trot and had about 30 touches. Somewhere Matty Pillos is crying. Lalor had some very quick and skillful kids running around and they looked players of the future but some key Lalor people were very unhappy with they way they are going. Good luck to them, like the Bloods good club.

From what I see, they seem to be playing for each other a lot more so far this year and a lot better spirit amongst players on the ground. Spot on with Andy Knee. Huge frame, very quick and strong, can play on ball or key position - would be equal to the top couple of players in any division one team.

i dont think the doggies will be a force come finals while they still have a good list with great players but the likes of heidleberg and mont have added to thier already strong lists and have improved a lot from last year in rnd 1 the doggies were very lucky to get the win against the parkers who were the better team on the day bundoora also will be a very hard team to beat when they are allowed to run very fit and they move the ball well it will be intresting how it all shapes up but for me early favourites are heidleberg and mont

i also noticed some of the undiscplined play from lalor when they played the bulls not to annoy any lalor supporters either but i saw some dirty acts on the field in seniors reserves and under 19's and wasnt a fan of it , not to say bundoora wernt in on the fighting either when push come to shove i think lalor has some very good potential just need to concentrate on the footy abit more but thats just my opinion :p

Mont and Bundoora have the depth over the Bergers and North. I think it will come down to injuries in September. As a viewer of DVFL games having seen the DOggies, Burgers, Lalor, Parkers and Mont first hand, Mont were the most impressive but they have a suspect finals record. I think that Mont are the biggest chokers ever. THe Burgers should have won more flags and if the won last year we would treat them differently. Gotta remeber they missed the finals two years in a row the year before they won the flag. The Doggies just know how to scrap it out but there key players are getting on and they lost some guns over summer. Saw Laor V Burgers on Sat. Not tryingto annoy the Lalor boys on here but there was some infighting going on durring the last quarter and some very undiscplined acts. Justin Murphy cruised around without a tagger most of the day and hardly got out of a trot and had about 30 touches. Somewhere Matty Pillos is crying. Lalor had some very quick and skillful kids running around and they looked players of the future but some key Lalor people were very unhappy with they way they are going. Good luck to them, like the Bloods good club.
Thats a fair call Dwight, and I gotta say mate you are spot on with the "infighting" comment... some blokes just have to learn that it is unacceptable to berate your team-mates on the ground. I know the incident you are referring to, and that was addressed Tuesday night. The bloke was also dragged for it. Our kids are doing ok, they are coming on alot quicker than most wouldve thought. They will be alot better off when a few of our senior players get back from injury. Murphy was hard to keep track of and we just werent accountable enough. Some key Lalor people have to keep their unwanted opinions to themselves. Simple case of to much p i s s, to much to say, and most of them wouldnt have a clue about the joint anyway. Lalor is a club of 2 sides... pepole that know, and people who think they know.

it allready looks like bergers mont bulls and north.which ever side has best run with injuries and likes the wind(epping in september)will take it out.will have to wait till top 4 play each other to know more.only one game this week even looks up for grabs,eltham v lalor at panther place.im tipping eltham,only cause i follow them.rest of the games look over allready.bundoora,north,mont and heidelberg will win.wpl will finish 5th this year ahead of lalor or eltham
No way in the world WPL, Creek, Epping will get near us Sparksy, and im looking forward to Saturday, because this time last year we got done at Eltham and we want to avenge that loss on their home ground :thumbsu:

Cmon Matty, in the 2s there were 2 or 3 blokes running around all day belting blokes (especially Piggott who got his right whack) and in the main game both sides were doing their fair share of sniping. That Piggott has always been a goose and is hated by almost everyone who has ever met the blonk. Last year a couple of good mates who play senior footy at North said that they pulled up alot sorer than they had all year after both encounters with us. We are a very physical side, and sometimes it does boil over. Im proud of the fact that we are hard at it, and tough. Controlled agression towards the footy and the man is our priority without question.

Fair point TOC, the bergers have been dominant through-out the last 3-4 home and away series, but will prob never be able to match 5 flags in 6 years..they have a long way to go, anyway, and Mont and bundoora will give them a good showing this year...

They might b trying but they dont pay there youth which forces them to leave?
The only youth to leave were Mitchell, Fields and McFarlane. They didn't contribute much anyway. Mitchell was a great player, the other two ordinary, but off the field all they did was hold each other's hands like gay lovers and stick to themselves.
Can someone please explain the clearance situation that's preventing Bernie Hourigan from joining Wallan from Broadford? Broadford have no drama's in letting him go, but I've heard Big Bern's former DVFL club (South Morang) have the right to deny it and have . . . . how's this work?
wpl to finish 5th the have already lost to dc and the creekers lost to the panther by 4 goals
creek just won after being 5 down at 3/4 time.wpl have stuck with their kids and will improve.the most dissapointing thing at this stage is i cant see a bottom six team beating any of the top teams all year.not good for dv footy.

did enjoy last years encounter and hope the results the same.a few less vbs and i would have said the cougars for 5th but now im going to stick with wpl just for the hell of it.make sure you come inside and practice your goalkicking at panther park.

The Diamond Valley have a rule that means any player who comes back into the DV must get a clearance from their original club. If for example Lance Whitnall leaves Carlton and wants to play for Macleod he would still require a clearance from his original DV club (Lalor??) even though he has not played there for ten years.

We have very good mates from other clubs that dont do it, so it amazes me when these nobodys think they can whack our young blokes and we will turn the other cheek. Think again.

Funny game this football . . . . Wallan rolls Thomastown by 47 points round one then loses to Hurstbridge (50 pts) before Thomastown pumps Hurstbridge to the tune of 86 points today. On a side note good to see reigning Broadford B & F named best on debut for Wallan today.

Just want to vent my anger, frustration and disappointment regarding an incident in our game on the weekend against Eltham. About 10 minutes into the last quarter, one of our players was knocked out in an accidental incident involved in the play. As he lay there, motionless and bleeding from his head and face, the Eltham crowd broke into applause and started berating the bloke. Apparantly when a group of Lalor blokes walked over and stood within 5 metres of the offending crowd, they did what Eltham did what Eltham do best... they s h i t themselves and shut their gobs. The Eltham players or coaching staff were in no way involved with any of the malicious comments made towards our team-mate.
With our bloke asleep for 2-3 minutes, we regroup and wait for the stretcher to be bought out to take the bloke off the ground and we wait, and we wait and we wait.... And it soon becomes apparant that Eltham dont have a bloody stretcher. And what makes it worse, when they do manage to bring out something, they manufacture something that vagely resembles a stretcher from the 1st world war.
Anyway they get him off the ground, call an ambulance... when they do manage to get him out of the rooms on the wheely bed and travel past the social rooms to get him to the ambulance, they take him through mud on that bloody unsafe hill, across what wouldve been gravel 140 years ago, millions of stones. The ambo lady almost stacked on one of the steps as well and was clearly frustrated at what is blatantly an outdated set up... Even though he was sedated and restrained, he was in obvious pain as the wheely cart rode over the bed of stones that eventually led to the ambulance. It will be interesting to see the severity of the slap on the wrist Eltham receive (if any because its Eltham) over what is nothing short of disappointing on their part.
The Diamond Valley have, in their outdated and unpopular wisdom have given them finals this year. They had better hope nothing happens like that again, with worse or even tragic circumstances, because they will be sued into extiction. The visitors rooms are inadequate, and that standing room hill is an accident waiting to happen. The ground isnt all they make it out to be either. Wouldnt want anyone to hit their head on that cricket pitch which comes out 15 metres onto the ground...
The bloke involved ended up with a compessed fracture of the cheekbone, 8 facial fractures, broken nose, broken jaw, a cracked cleft pallate and several loose and broken teeth. He also had a split from the base of his nostril, through his lips to about halfway to his chin. And the Eltham crowd clapped and jeered him until they realised the seriousness of the situation... Thats something that we wont ever forget, as individuals, as a team or as a club.
Eltham is a club of high paid primadonnas who cant play for s h i t. For the 1st time in years I didnt have a beer in their rooms after the game, and either did alot of the other boys. I cant wait to play them again later in the year AT LALOR. See who cheers and jeers then...

Sounds pretty poor what happened at Eltham Giveyah. Im not suprised it was tough to get the player to the Ambulance, as i play cricket there and know just how akward it would be. They probably should get some sort of pathway, or procedure to make sure next time something happens, then its alot quicker and safer.
Also to hear that they were cheering/jeering a player obviously knocked out and injured is not on.

Not surprised in the slightest! I saw the same thing happen a few years back. Only on this occasion it was a blatant hit behind the play that left a player concussed severely. As he was carried around the boundary line he received abuse and laughter from over the fence.
There is nothing wrong with supporting your club, and even giving a bit to the opposition, but when you start getting stuck into someone who has been injured, that is well below the belt!!!
The only thing I would say is that two wrongs dont make a right, and if you are looking at pay back later in the year, then the best way to go about it is on the scoreboard. You will have the last laugh and put the supporters back in their box by having a big win, not by stooping to the same level of abuse as them.
How long is the fella out for? Is that season gone for him?

i think i may know the incident at Eltham you are speaking of.
If its the same one, then the Eltham player who hit the other player copped his fair share of abuse which he rightly deserved. Eltham think they're all that and then some apparently....
Every club has it's idiots, Lalor just as many as any club. Surely you are not placing your judgement on a handful of people who probably had a couple of beers under their belt.
I do not condone that behaviour but every club has a handful of people missing a few brain cells from being dropped on their heads as a child, and I am sure 95% of the opposed crowed had genuine concern for the player involved, and should not be guilty by association.

Firstly to the regulars on the public post (mitch, TOC and matchwinner) thanks for your responses... I will do my best to respond to each of you within this post. They will get their right whack (and yes matchwinner I mean on the scoreboard) but if that Bongetti drops his head like he did 5 times on Saturday, then he might have to make alternative arrangements for his head to get home. The incident itself was one of those footy accidents we see from time to time, and we accept that. This could be a career ending injury to the guy. The doctor said on Saturday night that the James Hird injury was nothing compared to this.
But to ChrisHall (who reeks of that lying skirt Kingfooty), not once have I seen a Lalor crowd applaude and jeer a player convulsing from a fair incident within the rules of play. Ever. Dont you ever wonder what life couldve been like if you didnt have a keyboard glued to your fingers you pathetic little man? Enough said.
And to Bobcobb, I agree with you that we all have our fair share of crazys and I apologize to any people I have tarred with the same brush as those inbred ferals we encountered there on Saturday. But let me assure you my friend, that were just as many women, mothers or otherwise as there was pi ss ed blokes and teens that bagged the bloke in question. How would you feel if it was your son Bob, or your best mate??? Ponder it from that point of view.

wasnt at the game on satdy,the people i talked to yesterday didnt say anything about any abuse,only concern about your player and the time it took to find the stretcher(and yes i know how old it is).hope your bloke is allright as nobody likes seeing blokes get hurt.the eltham football club is in the process of upgrading all facilities,but cant do it all at once.im sorry our ground isnt as picturesque and appealling as lalors ground,mayby we should take renovation tips when we have our return match,unless we crack the :D:D:D:Ds and go home without having a beer.thier may well be some idiots down at panther park but i cant think of one club that doesnt.as for our players being high paid primadonnas,your wrong thier under paid kids who play for the club,thier mates and thier coach.the majority of eltham players are from eltham.congratulations on your win,i was told lalor were too big too strong and too good

And what makes it worse, when they do manage to bring out something, they manufacture something that vagely resembles a stretcher from the 1st world war.
Anyway they get him off the ground, call an ambulance... when they do manage to get him out of the rooms on the wheely bed and travel past the social rooms to get him to the ambulance, they take him through mud on that bloody unsafe hill, across what wouldve been gravel 140 years ago, millions of stones. The ambo lady almost stacked on one of the steps as well and was clearly frustrated at what is blatantly an outdated set up... Even though he was sedated and restrained, he was in obvious pain as the wheely cart rode over the bed of stones that eventually led to the ambulance. It will be interesting to see the severity of the slap on the wrist Eltham receive (if any because its Eltham) over what is nothing short of disappointing on their part.
The Diamond Valley have, in their outdated and unpopular wisdom have given them finals this year. They had better hope nothing happens like that again, with worse or even tragic circumstances, because they will be sued into extiction. The visitors rooms are inadequate, and that standing room hill is an accident waiting to happen. The ground isnt all they make it out to be either. Wouldnt want anyone to hit their head on that cricket pitch which comes out 15 metres onto the ground...
The bloke involved ended up with a compessed fracture of the cheekbone, 8 facial fractures, broken nose, broken jaw, a cracked cleft pallate and several loose and broken teeth. He also had a split from the base of his nostril, through his lips to about halfway to his chin. And the Eltham crowd clapped and jeered him until they realised the seriousness of the situation... Thats something that we wont ever forget, as individuals, as a team or as a club.
Eltham is a club of high paid primadonnas who cant play for s h i t. For the 1st time in years I didnt have a beer in their rooms after the game, and either did alot of the other boys. I cant wait to play them again later in the year AT LALOR. See who cheers and jeers then...
Only this sort of action would happen in the DVFL. Very disgraceful comp and the standard now days is terrible. Just have to look at the results to realise this. DVFL = S H I T.
Just want to vent my anger, frustration and disappointment regarding an incident in our game on the weekend against Eltham. About 10 minutes into the last quarter, one of our players was knocked out in an accidental incident involved in the play. As he lay there, motionless and bleeding from his head and face, the Eltham crowd broke into applause and started berating the bloke. Apparantly when a group of Lalor blokes walked over and stood within 5 metres of the offending crowd, they did what Eltham did what Eltham do best... they s h i t themselves and shut their gobs. The Eltham players or coaching staff were in no way involved with any of the malicious comments made towards our team-mate.

Terrible stuff allround. Any reports on how the young man is doing give ya?
Eltham, very lippy club considcering they have never been any good.
Agreed Give Ya, must clubs have crazys, some more then other but there every where. And who ever is using CHris Halls name is a shocker. No DVFL palyer will get on here and outright talk that garbage. Espically not one who kicked a 100 lastyear, what is that going to prove?
