Don't know about that Dog. Was talking to a League Rep late last week and they were confident season would start on time.

Three grounds on bores - Kilmore, Lancefield, Romsey. Two on recycled - Diggers and Woodend.

Rockbank and Macedon good chances to get exemptions. Riddell, Melton Central and Kangas the concerns.

If clubs were prepared to be flexible with fixturing League was confident of starting on time.

Seems your in the know "will they" ?????

This is tomorrow's article, thought RDFL fans might want a squiz:

Sharpe resigns

by Matt Nicholls

NEILL Sharpe, general manager of the Riddell District Football League, has resigned, heading for bigger and better pastures.
The resignation comes as a blow for the RDFL, who will have a hard time replacing someone as professional and able as Sharpe.
During his three-year rein as the general manager, Sharpe was instrumental in getting the league back on track in financial and playing terms.
He brought a level of professionalism to the RDFL, which had not been seen for quite some years.
RDFL president Ollie Matthews said the league was sad to lose Sharpe, but wished him all the best in his new role as development manager for the Western Jets.
Since his arrival, the RDFL has significantly boosted its sponsorship levels.
Sharpe is responsible for Essendon Nissan gaining the naming rights to the senior football competition – a very lucrative deal for the league.
He has also been strongly involved in the recent amalgamation between the senior and junior football bodies and the netball association.
His work with district newspapers, in particular The Free Press, has been commendable.
Sharpe leaves big shoes to fill at the RDFL office, and the executive will have a tough task finding a suitable replacement to take on the vacant position.

* Those interested in applying for the RDFL’s general manager position are encouraged to visit the league’s website www.rdfl.org.au (http://www.rdfl.org.au/)

Who said they cant water it after jan 1, they currently have exemptions to put water on it until mid jan then who knows, if they cant play on it, simple they will move games, it doesn't take a brain scientist to work that out, maybe play at clark oval when sunbury are not playing at home.

If that does happen, games will then be switched or played at another venue, with the ballarat season starting late, i'm sure clark oval will be available for the roos. It is a council ground and the Lions cant stop the use of the feild. only off feild could be a problem but anything can be worked out.

Can anyone tell me how many under 18 teams well be competing in the 07 season.

Kilmore should almost definately have a side this year, kangas have good numbers, diggers might struggle, centrals no chance and lancefeild are working hard to get a side, but aren't too confident. all other sides have not really had trouble fielding sides in past years.
On that i will have an early guess and say there should be 8 if diggers can scrape together a side. hopefull for the league they can, and lancefield can also get a side. a 9 team u18 comp would be great for all clubs, as the kids and seniors wouldn't have to play at seperate venues on occasion.
Of course a 10 team comp would be ideal

As this is his last week, maybe we can get a few comments from people about the great work Neill Sharpe did for the RDFL in his term as general manager.

Also, I believe he is having some farewell drinks at the Olive Tree Hotel on Friday evening from around 6pm.

As a journo, I think Neill did a great job to help increase the media coverage and make the press better informed of issues inside the league.

As a player, he marketed the league well and has worked closely with clubs to keep them afloat and in the black.

As a cricketer, it was great seeing him hit blokes for six with ease playing for Gisborne in D, E and F-grade.

Well done Sharpie.
