[quote=w.weapons]we have had a great year considering the last couple of years we are re-building and all people who have come this year are staying....:thumbsu:

Weapons.. heres a legitimate question. R Parks re building or RE-BUYING

Ur 2 rucks are old enough to play super rules.
All ur new players this year are from other clubs (not former players returning)
You dont have any senior players under 21

I stand to be corrected on any of those comments...

To me re-building is promoting juniors from within ur own club.....

u said "boyfriend" in ur quote to me that means his right hand man "assistant" na not assistant.involved in the junior side of things and very passionate about that.

re building yes we will have 18's next year 12 or 13 boys from the premiership winning u 16 side are going up.

the guys from other clubs are staying dont know what we are paying but they are doin a great job......
we had 5 players return from 04
as for the ruck men yes they have been around a bit they are solid ruckmen probably in the best 5 in the comp

average age in the 1st is about 25 so what they are experianced.....:thumbsu:

Keep guessing champ. It must have been hard to work out that I follow Heights more closely than I let on.

Just cos Parks coach is on here doesn't mean Heights coach is.

In case you didnt realise this is a discussion board about Div 2...that could be a reason why I posted Heights B&F and was talking about who pays what....

By the way, the tone of your messages seems to have changed... did u type that last response or did u give ur boyfriend your password?

Just logged on and read the last 10 pages. Your literacy has taken a big dive eg. defencive and whatch. Were they a joke. It's a good thing that you are anonymous as they are hard words to spell. I think it more likely that another Deer Park goose typed it and you were giggling over his shoulder like a little boy.
Anyway I agree with goes bang from 50 that 2 fat old ruckmen won't be up to it on the big grounds. Deer Park don't have a running game in the slightest and rebuilding means developing youth mixed in with a bit of recruiting, not running after every player that becomes available like desperado's. Also Skippy and the late coming Taylors Lakes players that started playing because the team looked strong are not the sort of people to build a club around. They will show the same loyalty as your coach has shown to the last 4 clubs he has been with. I don't think I would be too proud if every club I have been to thought I was a pr... The coach will have a reason why it is always the clubs fault and never his own fault why relationships soured. It's easier that way but hey time and again must mean something.
I have no fear playing Deer Park should they make the grand final.
Deer Park also now have a reputation among many clubs regarding not going in for a drink. Not what local football is all about.

Have you written off North Footscray in the Ressy's??? I think they are a huge chance aginst Albanvale.

Nah not writting them off by any stretch i just think that Albanvale are a very good team in the ressy's and i believe they have a great opportunity to knock North off...i watched North play against Deer Park's reserves a few weeks back and they looked good they were up by a fair bit when i left then only just got over the line...i think they tappered off near the end of the year and they're not the squad they were at the start of the year!

They have got a few players back since then.. and with their seniors out I think they have a few that qualify to play.
North lost to Coburg only two weeks before the season end and then came out and flogged them in the first week of finals. North also beat Albanvale during the year when they where traveling well. It should be a good contest and should only be a few goals in it towards the end.

Well Albanvale are a different team when finals arrive they looked real good when the last quater came around in the first final started to play some good footy against us...they may have beaten them during the year but we beat North and stopped that unbeaten run they had during the season at they're home ground too but it doesn't guaruntee a win if we face off again so...it'll be interesting to see what happens

30 Aug 2006, 16:09

Many players have come and gone since round 5 Jib..... and the Hawks only got over the line by a point with North actually having 4 more scoring shots.
I think that the final 4 teams in the Ressies have been the form teams all year... so this weekend wil be very interesting.
I saw West play last week and they have hit some really good form... I think Glenorden will have their hand full containing them.

Just wondering what everyone's thoughts were on why Div 2 has to play their finals down at Werribee (which to be honest is the worst surface i've played on all year - looks like hay, with a nice little bit of green in the center which is actually a bog) when grounds like Yarraville, Williamstown and even the Whitten are free? (Yes I know the Whitten is being used - but surely they could play 2 games - ressies and ones G.Finals - on it)

Peoples tips for the weekend
Glenorden over West Footscray
Deer Park over Albanvale

Both games to be extremely close.

Well done superstars just worked it out did we? Dont know where u get ur info from but neva said clubs were at fault only 1 being seddon who werent prepared 2 give a go, should have known that myself. As for being disloyal 2 clubs have always asked 2 b reappointed but they thought that was wrong choice, thats their opinion. Record stands for itself 4yrs coach senior footy, 2 prelims with 1 yr being at seddon who wouldnt win game in div2. Hope we do play in g/f next week by then u mite grow some balls & identify urself so then we can c just how soft u really r. No ur facts b4 u start accusing me of being disloyal. When time comes c if u can stop the lakes u muppet.Plus no late lakes boys came eitha would love to no who feeds ur head mate cause making u look like a fool.

Both games to be extremely close.

Albanvale over parks... 10 points

Werribee surface is crap but it is better than playing at Altona. Worst ground for finlals ever. The conditions dont allow good footy and there is no atmosphere. They shoould never be allowed to play finals there.

The club has no money.. bottom line. 5-6 good people run the whole club. Although they all work their guts out they don't have the business skills or connections to attract sponsors.

U are right about being only a few players short and it wouldnt be that hard to pay some coin out to get 3 or 4 players but how could u possibly justify buying 3 or 4 players when Greto, Weston, Mallia, Bugeja and the Caruana's are on $000.

Club decided to spend the few $$$ they have on medical staff rather than players. That way ALL of the players get the benifet.

Speaking of Weston, how is his knee/leg after the final? Being on the other side and watch him tear up the midfield, do his knee, then nearly steal the game being nursed in the forward line was one of the gutiest efforts I've seen on a footy field.

2 Sep 2006, 10:48

They are good clubmen, but to get players better than them you have to pay big $$$. Just couldnt justify it.besides:

The players are all genuine mates. no seperate groups and in fighting. That would be destroyed.

The main thing is the club thinks it can get the extra 4-5 players without paying $$.. coming from 2 or 3 recruits (which it has for next year) as well as the under 18's of which 5 played senior footy this year.

Like I said in an early message. Two fat slow ruckmen useless on a big ground. More a liability. No running game on the big grounds of finals. If we had of kicked straight (33 shots to 16) the result would have been 15 goals. Also take away number 17 (who by the way looks like he is getting fatter by the day) and you wouldn't have scored half of what you did.

Heard one of your addresses. If you didn't say the words 'all right' 80 times i'll go he. Also I can't remember the last time a team listening to their coach could take in 30 things in one address. Two or three main points maybe. I liked the cliche's as well, "punch from behind" blah blah blah. If one thing was clear it was that you like the sound of your own voice and enjoy grand standing. eg the occassional raising of the voice with no substance coming out.

You are a long way away from a premiership. Enjoy the A 2's and however long you have left at Deer Park til they work you out.

I would hope the league would go back to a final 6 if it was a 12 team comp next season, but as the finals are the leagues biggest money maker I doubt that will happen.

I have heard that the WRFL are close to confirming that next year there will be a final 5 exactly the same as the div 1 finals system.
this makes sense as centrals and brunswick are definatley looking like they wont be a part of the 2007 season. There is also huge doubts that the western magpies will have a senior side in 2007 aswell.. this is just the mail i have heard from a very reliable source.

That would be a shame if true. Hopefully Point Cook can get a team together, however if they do it might mean the end for the Magpies. If they can keep that group together from the U/18's this season they may improve and atleast be able to field a side next year.

Any news on coaching appointments or vacancies from the clubs yet? I heared a whisper that Coburg might be in the market for a new coach. Can anyone confirm or deny this?

Absolute crap. The Magpies will most definitely have a side next year no doubt about it and a much improved side aswell, about 6-7 Under 18's will go up next year and thats where the improvement will come from.

yer unit they will improve by 2 goals at least with all the 18's coming up, next year they will finish bottom again.......:thumbsu:

sorry about bagging the maggies again but as i have said before use are crap hehehehehehehehehehe:eek:

Yeah there are a few coaching positions available - can check them out on www.wrfl.asn.au (http://www.wrfl.asn.au) - checked the coburg situation on www.coburgdistricts.com.au (http://www.coburgdistricts.com.au) and they are looking for a new coach by the looks of things - kangaman have you heard anything ? if dale hough leaves there might be a few boys that go with him you would think as he seems close with a few of the guys down there..

Western magpies have my respect for turning up every week.. but there onfield performances are terrible. i know its not a professional comp and people play for the love of the game but there are 20 ordinary unfit footballers in that side.. ok you may have a few 18s coming up.. but they are not going to turn it around to even beat gladdy park for example. (nothing against gladdy park there just the first club that came to mind)

does anyone know if they are loosing players due to retirement or another club yet ? be interested to see if there is any early moves..

Have no idea what's going to happen - i was always under the impression if Dale didn't coach he would still be down at the club in some way or form.
Caught up with some of the boys last weekend and I asked what was happening with Dale - they said he had until today to let them know what he wanted to do. Will probably find out more next Friday at Presentation night.
If Dale did indeed leave I wouldn't be suprised if people went with him as he has been at the club for many years and has many solid friendships there. To be honest if wasn't there I may weigh up my options as well.
Just had a look at the districts website - pretty funny, Romeo was an absolute madman that night - gotta love him!

Keep sookin about your grand final loss buddy.

i cant wait until next season when our 18's smash your 18's (if you are able to get a side that is which is highly doubtful) by 10 goals.

Yeah mate thats probly right ... but i think results will certainly improve , this year when the Magpies come close to Nth Fscray they had 4 Under 18's and that made the difference for them. All 4 of those boys plus another couple will go up , i wouldnt expect us to win many if any games but i dont think u will c 200 point losses every week.

All i expect is a much more competitive side , you shouldnt expect the Magpies to get some decent results until at least 2008 though.

kangaman06

19 Sep 2006, 07:06

Yup that'd be the one (Sean Smith that is)
With that quote, all I was referring to was that they had come from Taylors Lakes originally, it's not uncommon in local footy for people to return to the clubs they were originally with (such as the Agresta boys in the EDFL, Tony Romeo with us went to Rox. Park but then came back) I wouldn't expect people who have been Deer Park all their lives to suddenly turn around and play for Taylors Lakes.
As for juniors, I have no idea. Heard from people during the year that we've been approached by a few local clubs over the years with juniors about merging but it's the direction the club wants to take - just to be a seniors only club. But it would be difficult when you have Pascoe Vale, Oak Park, Strathmore, Hadfield, Glenroy, West Coburg and North Coburg all in close proximity.

I reckon he had an excellent year. He was always well organised for game day and players always new their role. He kept the game plan pretty simple which I reckon is the way to go at this level of footy. It's a shame he wasn't fit enough to play this year. In the few games he did play I found his on field leadership and voice particularly valuable. He would be almost guaranteed the job for next year. We only lost 2 games for the year and that was to a better, quicker team. I wouldn't think he would be sacked after that performance. If we can find a bit more speed in our recruiting I think we will be a real show next year. That's not syaing we are slow, as a lot of people on this thread seem to think. It's just Glenorden were definately quicker.

I would say that he has had a great year as coach. Don't forgot he took a side that did not even make the finals in 05 to a side that played in GF in 06. We only lost to 1 side for the year and that side was undefeated for the whole year, we were 4 games clear from 3rd so it has been a pretty successful year.

He also managed to gel a side that had a huge influx of new players brought into it which is not as easy as it sounds.

There is not a chance in hell that he will not be around next year and I am pretty confident that we can go one step further next year under Robbie.

Good that you can speak for the other Taylors Lakes players. Time will tell. The chance to play in comfortable surroundings coached by an ex AFL/VFL players would be very tempting. Also if the money is right who knows. I am tipping there would be none of you lot at Deer Park if you were not getting paid.
