warrnambool district football league

[catch me if u can]

any news from any club this year? whos going to be the big movers, whos going to be the sliders? premiership contenders ect... what players have gone where?:thumbsu:

[DaKing]

Well Round 1 really showed that this year is going to be vastly different to last. How about Rovers pounding the Dennington dogs! The boys at South Rovers are going to be pretty tough to beat by the looks of things. The Power also knocking off Merrivale is a pretty fair effort. Poor East copped a flogging at the hands of Panmure and Id say they are in for a long year.

[DaKing]

Round 2 and what a sensational effort by the Allansford Cats to hold of Merrivale and nearly score an impressive win at the Tigers Den! Rumour has it that a couple of dodgy free kicks were paid late to the Tigers. Can anyone confirm this?

[ALWHTE]

East, must battle on and off the field, they seem to struggle with clearing footballers, if they want to go let them go...

[Courageunderfire]

Dean Funston, is he a big loss to the comp?

[DaKing]

I think its a case these days that all country clubs are really struggling for numbers. Most of the teams around here are scraping to get reserves sidse on the field so they are trying to keep clearances to a minimum. I my honest opinion tho, if you have a talk with them and you cannot convince them to stay then clearing them and the player leaving on good terms is the best way to go.

[Mobbenfuhrer]

I've never seen a WDFL match, actually I don't think I've ever seen a ground ... well I did go to Warrnambool for a weekend once and saw a ground out the window of the train, which one would that be?

[catch me if u can]

well its been a interesting start to the wdfl season. hard to read much into it yet but looks like the vale may have fallin from there perch with a 1st round loss to the power and a luck escape from the claws of the cats. will be intersting to see if they can get there season back on track in the coming weeks! south rovers would have to be happy wit there start to the season and so to would the power! any goss from any clubs round the league...injuries, big improvers ect? heard beard mite be out for a few weeks with an ingrown left toe nail ...any truth in this?

Yeah, I have heard Beardy might be setting himself for the game against East in a couple of weeks. They have got Allansford this week so will probably have a rest rather than risk it against them.

very good to see someone else with some common sense, the way i c it, is that if they go on good terms, more than likely to return on good terms, and prob bring a few with them, Who's not struggling to fill a side, as a reserve coach i know what its all about.....

Thing is, after a while it all turn around, and they will come flooding back if you look aftem them....

Like DaKing said, I think its a situation of shortage of players full stop. But I also agree that if they dont want to play for you, you are better off to wish them luck and have them leave on good terms. As you say, the wheel turns. Our policy is to simply meet with the player, if we cannot convince them to stay then we let them go.

Is anyone willing to have a crack at the end of year ladder, and league B&F? Here is mine anyway.

Ladder, Power, Timboon, Russells Creek, Allansford, South Rovers, Merrivale, Panmure, Dennington, Old Collegians, Deakin, Nirranda, East


League medal, Jim Whitehead(power), Ward(Allansford), Wagstaff(Timboon).

kl-noorat, russells creek, south rovers, merrivale, panmure, timboon, allansford, dennington, deakin, old collegians, east, nirranda

i'd say the only certianties on the ladder will be the power and creek in the top three and south and vale will be top five. will be a huge fight for that 5 position on the ladder and the last spot in the finals. just hard to judge where panmure, timboon, allansfod and dennington are at because of who they have played this year.

for the medal;
-matt steele (allansford) (gets lots of posessions but doesnt use the ball well at all however umpiers dont give much consideration to that)
-jim whitehead (power) ( racks up lots positions and hard ball gets, silky skills, takes a great pack mark and never misses a target...one of the most complete players gettin round)
-for a few roughies...luke maddin & shane hutchins (power), tim ward (allansford), mark evens (rovers)

[DaKing]

Well Round 3 has come and gone and boy did my Cats really shake up the league this weekend knocking off the so-called Power. Demons are on fire and Rovers just keep rolling along. Few of you boys might have underrated my mates out there at Allansford.. go Catters

[Galopy]

Looks like Creek have recruited well. Allansford could be anything. Timboon looking the goods and Rovers motoring along. Add Merrivale and Kolora in there and you have your top five with one side being very unlucky, missing out on August/September action. I suppose it will all come down to injuries.

Deakin will be there or there abouts and then the rest. As for the Medal - Mark Evans looked a class above the rest on Saturday. Steel for Allansford will be close.

As for Sharpy...yes he can play and is a top bloke and not a bad fisherman too boot.

Cheers

Galopy !

Don't no much about the district league but I'll have a crack at the ladder and top medal chances!
Kolora-Noorat, Merrivale, Russell Creek allansford South rovers, Timboon, Dennington, Panmure, Old collegians, Deakin, Niranda and east.
Medal!
Jamie whithead kolora-noorat seems to be in the best each week and gets a huge rap in the paper.
Jason Porter- getting a bit of age but racks up the hard ball gets and is a known vote getter.
Matt Steele- is named on ball so he plays right under the umpires watchful eyes and gets in the best most weeks.

Roughies
Mark Evans-rovers i watched a game of rovers last yr he got a heap of it just kicked it long tho mainly cause he had no forwards to spot up.
Sam Mahony- I am a south w'bool supporter we got his older brother in the under 18's and i have seen this kid play y isn't he in hampden.

You on the Allansford bandwagon now King? I was at the game on Saturday and feel that Kolora/Noorat will improve vastly as the year goes on. Seem to have quite a good team of footballers, but just didn't seem to play well as a team on weekend. I am sure with the inclusion of Mills, Madden, Reed, Mahony, Moloney?, and a fit Jason Hutchins, the team will still be a force come September. Also noticed that Beard went off injured in third quarter. Not sure how bad his injury is, but could influence where the Power's season is headed.

[Galopy]

Beardy will miss a couple but no major damage to the knee. He'll be right in two weeks.

yeah heard there could be a few big names back for the power...beard being one of them!! and yes mark evans seem to be begining to again show the form that took him to vic under 18 back in his south warrnambool days! also got told to look out for darcy osullvin 4 the power...in some red hot form i hear!!

Of course Mark Evans would be showing form in the WDFNL! He could be a top Hampden league player back with South Warrnambool if he really wanted to! One of the best junior country footballers around stoppages that i have seen in my lifetime!!

yes i agree and can see where your coming from its a great point u make. and not knocking u or anything and i dont know his story..but if u really love the club your at and are enjoying your footy why leave? that just maybe the other side of the coin for him.

but i dont think you'll find to many people who have a bad thing to say against evo...top bloke and a sensational footballer...in what ever league he plays:thumbsu:

I seen panmure play last weekend and they were terrible. I no they have alot of injuries but i still think if you brought them in they would still not make finals. All there recruits were always on the sidelines injured last yr like heffernan had a bad hamstring and from all reports didnt get super fit over the pre season......maybe they thought district league would be a walk in the park for them!!!!! Any one agree?

yeah i agree members thats what alot of people think about district league this year especially the league has without a doubt stepped up a level with 5 or 6 teams a real chance to win the flag compared to lastyearwhen really only 3 teams looked competible, and its not until you ve played with hampden and district where you can really compare leagues..

Hi all! just new to the big footy scene and ive noticed quite a few names in the hampden league forum also which should make it significantly easier in finding out the latest goss from the south west footballing arenas! As i said in the hampden forum ive been away from the area for some years now and after playing with the roosters in the u 18s as a kid and then later scrapping a few games for old collegians, my knowledge of the warrnambool district league is not too flash!! who are the good teams, and top players etc.
thanks guys! hoffys

[mates33]

is it true that daniel beard fro kolora noorat will never play football again? broken knee cap and ligament damage??

[three]

It seems like timboon an the power are the 2 main contenders this year! the 2 teams play this weekend so will be very interesting to see how that pans out. both teams have fantastic hard running midfielders so the game will be very quick.. has anyone heard any info on power coach Daniel Beard? Is that true about his playing future??

[Azmo]

can anyone tell me how Darcy O'sullivan is going now he left Camperdown to play for Power??? still only under 18 but i know he played a few senior games at camperdown.

[Galopy]

Darcy is POX. Needs a new heart muscle !

Nah, he played very well last week against Rovers. Should be interesting games between Noorat/Timboon and Creek ! I reckon that will sort things out.

Cheers

[texas walker]

i hear young ben moloney comin through kolora-noorat power is a good young player... i've heard he is the best young moloney coming through, just wondering if this is true?

Yeah ill give ya that but the creek are gunna be up there this year too.. they also have a quality midfield an probably the 2 most dominant forwards in the league.. also rovers an allansford will be thereabouts.. allansford beat the power round 3! If i was a betting man i'd be on the power for this weeks bout with the timboon dees though!

[mates33]

i hear young ben moloney comin through kolora-noorat power is a good young player... i've heard he is the best young moloney coming through, just wondering if this is true?

Nah sorry texas, your a lone ranger on this one pal!! the best is bens brother matthew, absolute freak! then chris his older brother.. but the best moloney ive ever seen would have to e vinny moloney, tough as guts, he has glass on his corn flakes. dead set!! joel, jas and sam have got alot of improving to do if they want to get to their level

[Galopy]

Xavier Moloney is the best out of the lot. Joel should be concentrating more on footy then hair product and young Jas needs to tuck into a few Kermonds to get the KG's on. Ben has a way to go, but will be good enough. Sam also goes well.

Go Bears !

mark evans.. good lad but got absolutlely towled up!! very overrated!!

you will be eating your words by the end of the year mate. VIC Country U18 rep and one of the best players in the region in stoppages. He had one average game against power and you jump over him, it doesnt help when the whole team has a bad day!


On the beard issue, my sources say he is out for the year, he just keeping a lid on it. If he is out for the year you could almost say he is out for career. anyone know his age,

Is it true timboon have picked up a few gun players because they are working at Gas Plant? because i heard they will lose a few soon when Gas Plant puts off some workers.

Anyhow lads.. my tips for round 6 are

Timboon 30pts
South Rovers 25pts
Russells Creek 50pts
Deakin Uni 20pts
Old Collegians 40pts
Dennington 10pts


good luck to all playing this weekend.

dont throw stones little man i no who you are!!!!

[knackers08]

Can we all just leave Mark Evans alone? Theres guys goin around that aren't half as good as yolk.. Give him a break we all know he's a good player!

[mr x junior]

who would ya take at your club.. merrivale coach jason porter? or power skipper jimbo whitehead?

[Bung Knee]

I would take Porter over Whitehead. Whitehead doesn't know what a hardball get is and can't kick goals. Can't drink or score chicks either.

[catch me if u can]

i'm not sure how much u know about football bung but by the sounds of it u are one of these little fags that sits at home playing sing star on your playstation all day and watching star wars! :thumbsu:

[catch me if u can]

tuff decision to make but would go wit jimbo. poter is a great player and all but seems to be getting on a bit and not as dominant as he once was

[little man]

how are the three young power players that have gone to terang going? both joel and jason moloney were good player at power but steve staunton didnt prove himself did he?

[lofty27]

yolk best on ground v allansford and that was with 2 different taggers...
the tiges beat the creek, happy to see that and the demons to strong for power

[ripitup27]

Nah sorry texas, your a lone ranger on this one pal!! the best is bens brother matthew, absolute freak! then chris his older brother.. but the best moloney ive ever seen would have to e vinny moloney, tough as guts, he has glass on his corn flakes. dead set!! joel, jas and sam have got alot of improving to do if they want to get to their level

The Moloney boys were good back in 04 when the U-17s won that premiership against Timboon, led by fearless captain J.McSween and star defender K.Pollard. That kid had it all going for him until he did his knee. Poor guy.

[knackers08]

after the weekends results im going to say that timboon will win the premiership.. very well drilled side! merrivale defeating creek was a surprise but im certain no one is gunna get near timboon. they kept it pretty low key during the pre-season.. not alot was said about them. Kolora-Noorat still not at full strength an will be hard to match up on but still goin 4 Timboon. when ya drop the playing coach ya know they are a quality side :thumbsu:

[Saveloy]

an anyone tell me if Ben Wilkenson played in this league? and if so, how does he go?

Steady Knackers timboon wont win a flag when there full forward is 150kgs, cant jump over a 10 cent coin and doesnt leave the goal square

[lofty27]

there playing coach is over-rated anyway

[Bung Knee]

their playing coach is one of the shittest players in the league

Matho is way way past his used by date and should of done the team thing last year and resigned. why would Timboon still have him coach when you can get a half decent playing coach for the same price or even better a half decent non-playing coach. I dont no how the players respond to a bloke who runs around in the twos like headless chook.. Timboon are killin tho i must say so then again he could be a good coach.. Timboon vs Kolora-Noorat grand final just like the old heytsbury mt noorat days should be close..

[mates33]

Who would you have in your team issac templeton or jimbo whitehead? tempy apparently carves jimbo up every time they play each other and the word is that jimbo is stoked that the best tagger in the league is playin for koroit..

Steve you played against them on the weekend!

[mates33]

hey mercy boys and teachers go to forum jump, go down and click on school football the scroll down and check out the mercy regional college bears chat room!!!!!!!!!!

GO BEARS!!!!!!!!

[Piescoffer]

false on the Timboon question, spoke to bloke from the club and they have 1 gassy and he's playing two's.

[Piescoffer]

I hear beardy is out for season with total reco, shit news, poor buggar. The powers young quick boys: Ben Moloney, Steve 'scuba' O'Connor and Sam Moloney are the key to that side having a shot at the Premiership still. What do people think?

[Galopy]

I reckon they are going to find it tough, but will still figure. Timboon are nearly a certainty for one GF spot, saving injuries, the other is open to Rovers and Power.

It will be interesting this weekend, Power v's Creek. That might sort things out a bit.

Gal.

[TEE-R-OTTER]

How are the Hutchins twins going at the power house?
Settling in ok? how is their form? both on and off the feild.

[woof woof]

If you would like more info you can contact keg18wilson@hotmail.com or ring the clubrooms on 03 50322974

[the_boot_of_gum]

Yes they are starting to look more like twins every day, with jase putting in the hard yards to catch up in the boys attempt to be the 1st brother to become completly bold. On feild Shane in show all his class across the half back line and looks to be in B&F form. Jase on the other hand is only showing glimpses of brilance and needs to start kicking his goals (2 goals 18points for the season i'm told). i just wonder whether his heart is really in it at the power or whether he'd rather be up there on the murray milking cows n having a kick for the mighty blues.??????
they both however have been tremendous pick ups for the club and are both vital cogs for the power in there quest for september action:thumbsu:
And as for there off feild displays...well what did u murrabit boys teach them last year. they love there water n wont touch a beer. looks like the antics of henry hein and pistol have rubbered of on them.:D

I find that hard to believe, i can't recall a time when Shane drank any water, only when brutus tugged on his shorts... she'll be right!
As for those others mentioned at murrabit.... I know what they would prefer to drink... it aint water! we're in a bloody drought!!

[Whack 32]

hey guys just wondering are south rovers the real deal this year??? Everyone seems to be talking them up but are they that good?

[knackers08]

yeah fair call there mate.. but i think ben moloney would be the most important. has probably been the least talked about of the young guns in the lead up to the season but has a mountain of confidence and the skills to back it up! he will go places. not 2 sure about o'connor or sam moloney.. i dont know a hell of alot about them but all 3 boys will be regulars in the seniors this year an vital to the teams success. although i see ben is out this week.. can anyone tell me why that is?? he's been in the best the last 3 weeks surely he hasn't been dropped?

The Moloney boys are decent but I don't see why O'Conner is getting a game. Slow with a bit of talent, reminds me of a poor mans Luke Fulton.

[catch me if u can]

mate dont know how much footy you've seen of steve this year but he is dominating. definatly not slow an is setting an example for the more senior players in the team. his hard at the ball, takes a great grap, dangerous round goals and has got that little bit of arrogance on the feild that most good players seem to have. steve oconner...GUN:thumbsu:

false on the Timboon question, spoke to bloke from the club and they have 1 gassy and he's playing two's.
Hi again guys! Just reading the paper down my way and chatting to some wdfnl regulars on the weekend, looks like Timboon will be the side to beat this year. Michael Clements looks like he has been the key to their success this year with the coach playing reseves. Seems extremely strange that you would have your playing coach playing reserves! Is he returning from injury??

[lofty27]

Matho has probably seen the game go past him... he is gettin a bit old but he is a very good coach, he doesnt need to be playing to be a good coach. He has the respect of his playing group. and at 7 wins 0 losses thats understandable.

[lofty27]

hey guys just wondering are south rovers the real deal this year??? Everyone seems to be talking them up but are they that good?


I think they are contenders. They have been good in there wins, they probably have had the worst end of the draw to start the year with. 1 loss to power when they just played badley and had a very off day. The word im hearing is they have a few injurys.

[potter]

[Piescoffer]

In regards to Timboon coach Matho, i'd say he is considered a non-playing coach, i've noticed he isn't playing two's so perhaps he has unofficially retired. It seems he has his players doing the rights things so its probably fair to say its worked out ok for Timboon by having a non-playing coach. It doesn't happen all that often in country football but the question looms, can a non-playing coach be of more benefit to a football team than a playing coach??

Well would you rather spend lets say 15-20 grand or whatever for a non-playing coach who can only tell the players what to do and have no physical influence on the game or have a player that can lead by example on the field and also be an asset on the field also may bring players to the club.. Timboon are a good footy side i cant imagine anything Matho is saying can have an influence on the way they are playing. blokes like clemo rylance waggy thompson and flem bucket are doin it!! imagine if Timboon went out recruiting and recruited a centre half forward as coach! instead of a two's half forward flanker! BUT i could be wrong!

[azza32]

how does sammy attwater go playing for deakin??? i used to play wit him up wodonga way just wonderin how he goes??

[Bung Knee]

Rumour has it Power gun Shane Hutchins smashed his shoulder up last week but is going to continue playing with pain killing injections each week before the game and at half time. If this is the case his brother Jason needs to take a leaf out of big bro's book and harden up a bit.
