One thing you did forget to mention Moxy about the "Cobra" was that he was probably winning the Carey medal at that stage of the trip. Very poor form from an experienced tripper. Next year if we go back there we may book the team in the islander and book him in for one night at Seaworld with the rest of the kiddies.

First time in the history of the club we have had a DNF (Did not finish). Having said that Jock555 was in a very similar position claiming he needed a liver transplant after day 2 and spending all of day 3 dying in his room and mising the races. At least he fired up again on day 4!!!!!!!!!!

It was a very subdued "Cobra" on Friday night.

PS are there Cobras in lebanon?????????

7th floor Mox, not brave enough to do the 11th ;) And it was one of the two chairs that caused the damage to the car, the bed didn't fly that far unfortunately.

Props to the Wallan boys on trip, was good to have a drink with a few of you. BOG for trip would have to be one particular menace "Eating is cheating (so is sleeping)". Don't think that mess took the shirt off the whole weekend.
Ha ha eating is cheating ( so is sleeping ) was a classic, dont think I saw him without a beer in his hand the whole trip. I think the Wallan and Watsonia boys have built a good relationship, after the two clubs fought out a very close one this year and are both young sides, we seem to get along well with you guys.
I know Brekke very well, last I saw of him was at the races (when I had already done $300 by race 3 and was heading back to the hotel) when he and a bunch of blokes were cheering home another winner :)

Apparently the word coming out of Hurstbridge is that their big man Robert Peckham was robbed of the B&F. He kicked bags of goals on a number of occasions and even appeared in the Diamond Valley Weekly. Also a very efficient P.E teacher

Any word on the big man's future for next year ? The word is he has alot of offers being thrown at him and that he wont be at Hurstbridge next year. His name has been linked to a trade involving Michael Gardiner where Pecks will end up at West Coast and Gardiner at Hurstbridge. He could also be a late contender for the St Kilda coaching job after his awesome coaching record with the Parade footy team only losing 2 games in 4 years. Apparently they were very impressed with his strutting ability and perfectly placed hair.

Coming from the Eastern suburbs and knowing a bit about the comp, top three is a huge chance, but no guarantees of top two. Noble Park and Vermont are two very professionally run clubs who both have the benefit of significant revenue for players through poker machines. There was daylight between them and third this year.

Heidelberg - Welcome to Eastern FL!

Have to agree Heidelberg would have most likely been top 3 if they played in Eastern this year, there wouldn't be that much difference between the top couple of clubs in each league. Will be interesting to see how they go next year, they should be very competitive.

Would be quite interesting to hear someone from Heidelberg this time next year on comparing the 2 leagues.

From EFL website:

Heidelberg, after winning the Diamond Valley division one premiership this year, would not only look forward to the challenges on the field in a change of competition, but also the standards set off the field as well as Barrot explains. “Obviously it is a very strong league the Eastern, and we would be looking forward to the challenge. The Diamond Valley is a very good standard of football, but we believe Eastern have set a high standard and are the premier league in Melbourne, administration wise, and we will hopefully find out down the track in regards to the playing side of things as well.”

THE PROPOSED STRUCTURE

The proposed structure for Balwyn and Heidelberg’s inclusion in the league next season would be as follows:
A 12 team competition played over 18 weeks
All teams to play seven teams twice and four teams once in a structured draw based on 2006 results (For the purposes of the 2007 draw, Heidelberg and Balwyn would be considered to be within the top six teams)
Finals will be played between the top five finishing teams
The competition structure and fixturing will be reviewed at the conclusion of season 2007
Any changes that involve the relegation of more than one team to another division will not occur without a minimum of 12 months notice

everybody is forgeting who runs football leagues. yes they could do a better job at the top. But it is the clubs that make the decisions that happen in all leagues.
If every club submitted a change it would be addressed and voted on by all clubs. It is up to 1 club to put something down that will benefit majority of clubs or the league,at a presidents meetings or AGM somebody will move a motion. Then voted on. Surely the DVFL is not a complete dictatorship, do people go to these meetings and sit there and accept the decisions.
Time for the clubs to push the changes.

I am not from this league but do follow it, and obviously it needs changes.

Pretty sure it works like this:
Once accepted to Eastern FL like they have been, they require a clearance from DVFL (might even be a vote of DVFL clubs to let them go or just a board decision (not sure)). DVFL will most likely reject the clearence & Heidelberg then appeal to football victoria who make the decision on where they play.

You would think football victoria would let them go to Eastern FL but you never know.

Rumours flying around the traps regarding eltham footy club moving home grounds for the 2007 season as panther place gets a whole look ( including resurfacing ive heard). Like to know if anyones got any news as ive heard plenty cricket ground is the likely venue. cheers.

Yeah heard the same thing. What is it about helicopter pads in the forward pocket that Eltham obviously love?

They may also have to think about putting up a net behind the goals at the clubroom end. Can see the windows and canteen staff being in severe danger even with kicks from the centre - ground is smaller than the other Plenty (Lower) ground.

Kickass

16 Oct 2006, 14:39

Dear Ebert ,Moth , & others,

Yes, It will happen (ground resurfacing @ Central Park), but maybe delayed until 2008 due to the usual burueacy.

Some decisions are still needing to be made on costing / tendering / acceptance of project etc, but a sizable grant has already been issued so costs should not be the Major factor .

Plenty CC has been identified as one of several possible interim venue/s, but there are other options still to be reviewed, and decisions pending.

No need to worry though Ebert, because the Panthers will still be a sensational club anywhich way you look at it, and once we have a newly resurfaced ground along with many other scheduled improvements to facilities, we will be the undisputed football watching venue of choice for the DV.

Cheers

Word is pretty strong up this way that Wallan are in a wee bit of strife. Failed to assemble a committe at their AGM, Darren Sleeth apparently not goin round again in 2007 and no applicants for coaching positions as of yet.
Also hear a lot of the players that travelled up from the suburbs may not be returning to Greenhill Reserve . . . . any truth in all this????

As someone who takes an interest in all the local clubs in our area I do hope that this is pure innuendo and the Magpies can continue their transition to becomming competitive in the DVFL.
The people who were on the committee have been on it for years and are probably looking for a break. They get hardly any help and are often putting the Wallan FC ahead of themselves and their families.
But I'm sure they will be the same people to put their hands up when push comes to shove.
As for sleethy he has told me he is not coaching the Wallan FC next year, but if I was the club I would be trying to acquire his services A.S.A.P. I have already heard rumours that several clubs are after his signiture.

Rumours flying around the traps regarding eltham footy club moving home grounds for the 2007 season as panther place gets a whole look ( including resurfacing ive heard). Like to know if anyones got any news as ive heard plenty cricket ground is the likely venue. cheers.

Yes im pretty sure the construction of the Dale Equid Mermorial Stand will go ahead next year at Panther Place, what an honour for the stand to be named after the young fella. He will be sticking around and pulling on a guernsey next year for the panthers. Eltham could be a big improver in 2007 with plenty of young talent coming through such as Josh Merkel aka God

Sweet mate, ive got a spare set....

I was there Sat night when he unleashed that rather harsh and uncalled barrage of jibberish towards your good self. Thats what 26 pots and doing $500 on the ponys does to you. I was also part of the entourage that went to meet you on friday arvo, but some bloke with jail house stickers on his arms apparantly got his wires crossed and we rocked up to an empty bar.

Good to have you back mate :thumbsu:

Its not like the man formerly known as baywatch to get his wires crossed.

sorry hunteyes took a long time to get back to you mate but what i have been told we (macleod) are chaseing a few guys from the ammos and a guy who played a couple of years ago but was restricted becasuse serious injurys he's called dozza he is a classy wingman and sean ayres is coming back which will boost a forward line up abit. any forward with nick lynch in it will be a handful for any division 2 team!
If Macleod can get Dozza playing on a wing they will be a far better side, the bloke has got more natural talent than one man should be allowed to have....
With Ibbott, Mark Rose and D Beever hitting there straps they will be a force to be reackond with:thumbsu: :thumbsu: :thumbsu: ....

tommahawk

16 Oct 2006, 21:43

i heard they are chasing a older dessie brooks. we dont really need much just a good centre half back and maybe another key backman. i heard derrick shaw is going to make a come back!

dont get your hopes up for P.Davies to be leading the ruck stocks next year, dont think the old boy could last the first pre season run let alone make it through to christmas....
good to see some Macleod chat, with the positive feel around the club and the commitment of so many of the guys for the pre season the club is set for a good year ahead... all we need Tommahawk is to get you and your brother down there with a good pre season under your belts and we will be set...

Derek Shaw? would he still have it? Macleod have the best functions! They get over 100 people to every function during the year and 180 to the ball and presentation night. Good year ahead for them i reckon, everyone should jump on board! If Lalor do come down and macleod stay down it will be a good show but macleod will run lalor off their feet...too quick for lalor!

I saw Dessie running laps tonight, looks fighting fit... Dekka will add some toughness to the side, he might not be as quick as his opposition but im sure when he catches them that they would loose interest pretty quickly....

great funcions but i did see a very scary chick down there one night.. i thought she was going to smash me... would you know who that was carlsberg?????

16 Oct 2006, 21:54

the best bit of any function this year was when that guy called brucesta brought his new hot gourges mrs down for the first time she really has sex appeal! YUMMY!

I may know something about that but I heard she is great chic and was just a bit fired up that night but she gets over it pretty quick! Looking forward to going to some good functions next year!

no doubt they are great functions but i do think we should get a petition signed to get cocktail night back and hand it in to the social commitee! it was the best night ever down that football club and we would make heaps off it

carlsberg

16 Oct 2006, 22:16

Yeah cocktail nights are cool as long as no one drinks too much that they needthere stomachs pumped...... maybe the social committee could discuss it at their first meeting.:) :thumbsu: :)

how do you think the ones an twos will go next year mate?

depending on who stays and goes, i think with heidelberg gone its almost in the bag. mont will be the main challenger but they choke around finals time on the bigger ground ( Port Morency). twos will be up there as usual but dunno if we'll be as strong next year

Choke around finals time? That's a bit rich from a bundoora player, considering what has transpired this year!

The Macleod boys have come out of hiding!!!
Fellas, i think your predictions for next year, and your confidence, are far too premature. You don't even know who Lalor might pick up for next year, let alone other clubs. How about you get through the pre-season, then you can let your footy do the talking. Just because Greensborough is no longer in the comp doesn't mean it will be a walk in the park for you guys!!!
