Northern Football League Div 1 - CLOSED

[SCARFACE]

Tragic day for all bomber fans......Trevor B. rang me before said he is going after Sheeds


Also heard james hird might tag along for a couple of games, apparently his sign on fee is a family-all expenses paid for trip to the bejing olympics.

[joe_average]

My answer would be maybe "yes". There has got to be a reason why so many players have left the club and they fail to attract real talent. And may I add they also sacked a coach mid season. If he wasn't the right person for the job why didn't they change coaches at the end of last season.

I am not too close to it but obviously there was some internal discontent that came to a head when the coach was removed. It looks like they are trying to address any discontent as much as possible including the on field direction with regards to development, only time will tell whether it is working - I think the biggest off field issue they will have to deal with is keeping members and sponsors in light of relegation

[joe_average]

hi all ,been a long time on here.
CAN confirm the div 1 & 2 granny to be at preston city oval on SUNDAY whatever date it is.
more info.bottom side will be relegated,but in the not to distant future watch out for division of 8 not the current 10.
look out those fringe sides in div 2.
next years granny to be held 2 weeks shy of afl granny.
nfl have struck a deal with preston curator for this year only.

watch for further info

Been a long time reader - recent poster - this was the reason I wanted to post to see if this rumour was true.

Have stated my Epping bias - but that aside when you look at it in terms of ground condition, parking, amenities and facilities, ability to control entry / exit etc and the fact that opposing teams are on opposite sides of the ground am I wrong in saying that Epping Reserve is the most suitable location for Div 1 finals ON A SATURDAY.

Would like to see if I am that biased or other club members / supporters agree / disagree with me.

I would suggest the reason it is on a Sunday if at Preston is because of the Market - it would be chaos on a Saturday down there.

I have to agree although the membership won't really be affected that much. Sponsorship will be though. I guess it depends on how hard they work off the field to attract sponsors. Epping is now a large growing suburb so there is definately new opportunities around.

I totally agree and this has nothing to do with my Epping bias either. Yes it can be a bit windy there but it really is the best venue available.

spot on about the sunday.i have gone to the market at eight in the morning on sat and chaos.it goes on like that most of the day.
sunday is much better for that reason but ground is a disgrace at the moment.
as much as people bag epping,how many other alternatives are there?
to make money epping is the best northern leauge venue

3. How do we know the difference.

Your kidding aren't you tosser? We have been a great club when we had no money and struggled along outside the four, and we are a great club now. Not all down at HFC measure the success of the club by it's trophy cabinet, most people like Bruce and myself have been through the good times and the bad. We are obviously loving it at the moment, and especially enjoying the torment our success is causing losers like yourself.

If you want to start calling people dogs and cowards, you'd better be prepared to reveal your identity, otherwise you are just another weak cyber freak that doesn't deserve a reply. Put your name on here soft coc*k or **** off.

Sad news, one of the umpires died of a heart attack during training on tuesday night. His death was witnessed by many of the young umpires just starting out in their careers.

I love to hate the umps, but when something like this happens I cant help but feel sympthy for them. I for one will not abuse the umpires on a personal level this week out of respect. I will however still abuse the stupid decisions.

THEY ARE FIGHTING WORDS MATE.....please reveal yourself or will we see who the real coward is. I want to show you my new joke......

[Pheonix20]

I have to agree with our earlier forecasters in that I see Mont, Greensy and Eltham all winning three each which will leave Mont with the best percentage and fourth spot decided out of three teams purely on points scored. Maybe one of these teams can win one out of left field and throw a cat among the pigeons even though they take one game at a time and the don't get ahead of themselves while continuing to keep a lid on it ... blah blah blah.
Shows how much the competition has levelled out.

I vote NO to a sunday grand final at Preston.
Saturday, maybe??? but definately not a sunday

I'm going for a lie down now.

Look out boys he is going to get his cousin on to you.

To the other crap you posted. Mate none of the non H'berg people here have much love for H'Berg... but we are not stupid enough to not respect them and not recognise that (at the moment) they lift the standard of the NFL - they give rest of the comp a bench mark... and hopefully someone knocks them off.

If you truly are a DV person - why would you want to weaken the comp??

Easy on the Shark boys. 'Cut me Mick, Cut me.'

Stand to be corrected, but Youngy has played every game in the 2's this year. Considered retirement but after boredom set in by December decided to return to give the midday show a chop out. Champion bloke and stawlwart who'll play a major role in proceedings, in the 1's or 2's, at the business end of the year.

Not happy re sunday grandfinal. Only a few months into the tenure and the directors of the new league have proven they have no idea about what the clubs require to stay afloat.
clubs must have a saturday granfinal so supporters can go back to the club and have a drink and celebrate the victory then have the sunday to recover.

C'mon Dev, Mate, I agree with what you say to a degree, but if you make a GF (win,lose or draw), you will celebrate. comisserate or masturb... no matter what day of the week it is held. :D

I have seen many a celebrations over the years which sometimes last several days, several nights and several weeks. A Sunday final is not ideal, but lets not turn it into a league bashing session. BTW, Sunday fixtures of DV/NFL have been very popular over the years. Eltham v Mont, G'boro V Mont, Np V Norf, to name but a few, have had massive crowd support from Local team, Opposing Team and general football supporters alike

Just as an aside, The NFL is still very much learning and i'm sure it will draw upon its experiences as it goes to put right the wrongs of previous DV administrations. Give them at least a chance.

As to what clubs need to financially stay afloat ??? Unfortunately, experiences have shown that those who least need the Financial assistance are the one's who generally play off in the Finals, whilst the club's who could benefit most are usually left in the final stages of organising their Footy trip.

Given a chance, I would be more than Happy to book a week off work to celebrate a Football Premiership - No one would miss me anyway!! ;)

Cheers

[devil's advocte]

K.A. you are right, I would celebrate a premiership any day of the week and also like you be MIA for some time.
However, GF aside, the prelim should not be on a sunday nor should the 1st semi which thank goodness isnt.
You are also right that it is the clubs that dont make the finals that need the money the most. BUT the clubs that do make it have to be rewarded for the effort, and if you can make 10k on the bar on a sunday then imagine what it would be on the saturday. More supporters with disposable income will attend your rooms on the saturday than will ever attend on the sunday during finals. Sure the players will have most likely already arranged a day off work, but 90% of your supporters wont, and that is where the money comes from. Sad but true.
Footy is meant to be about the players, the clubs and the fans, and I know having been a player and now a fan I would prefer saturday footy.

Yeah he is a clown... esp with that yellow runners t-shirt, that's about 8 sizes to big for his greyhound frame :p

[SCARFACE]

Don't forget Panthers have had a couple of unlucky losses to the Green Slime as well?/ R3 loss by 3 pts R12 loss by 11 points.

Hate Those Slimers

Some may say they were unlucky losses but i believe if u are good enough of a side u will win , even when on any given day whether u have injuries or play like shit good teams always find a way to get the job done and eltham just cant cut the mustard.

[montyboy69]

haha, the runner(s) of the ones are both good blokes are they who your talkin about, nah on a serious note, montys senoir side will be back in contention after they win the next 5 :) a few players in there who shouldnt be, but theyll get pushed out come finals time, and trust me reinke could be the wildcard for them in the finals, hes a young fella but hard to match up on cos hes great in the air and on the ground, plugga if he gets back will be much needed in finals as hes expreienced and is also hard to match up on his day, my 4 at the end of the yr, heidel

Well guys, we were always going to get Sunday finals if they were played at that hole cramer St with the Market situation. I hope it pours down rain in September and the ground is totally stuffed, not that it's in good condition at the moment anyway.
cramer st will be good for finals(sunday the only negative) there is only one ground in the league with a better surface--northcote park.the grandstand at preston holds nearly a 1000 and it will be a great atmosphere when the whole ground is full.no cars parked on the fence will be a bonus.:thumbsu:

Currently, many grounds have a better surface than Cramer St. Went for a walk on the ground a few weeks back and the centre square is nothing short of a glue pot. Pray for a sunny day folks.

Only plus is it will be a good place to watch the footy at, with the grandstand and atmosphere.

[Kickass]

BTW, Stef is okay to play - Both Legs in Plaster, several pins inserted into his body a couple of severed hamstrings and a shocking Hangover is all he has.

He should get through tonights fitness test though:p

Yep, Stef got through his fitness test with flying colours. His only concern is that the wheels of his walking frame might get stuck in Mont's outer wing mud! Should still go ok..

Also, I can't say too much, but there was talk of a surprise inclusion into the Panther lineup for this week.

Apparently looking to recall a fleet footed 5ft10, 115kg, 36yr old ruckman with over 300 games open experience back for his first senior game with panthers (151st overall) since season 2000!!!

Better look out J&B, he dosn't much like opposition runners :D:D:D

Oh please God - let this be true!! :D

Oh and just in case it is true - bad news, I'm out tomorrow - compulsory work conference - happens one weekend every year :thumbsd::thumbsd:

[Pheonix20]

Here's one for all those rumourmongers out there. I have just spoken to a committe man at Bundoora who tells me the police have arrested the blokes who broke into the club a few weeks back and they are NOT associated with the club at all. But they did say that footy clubs were an easy target. Take care boys.;)

You have got to be joking. I went past the ground a few weeks ago as well and it was a disgrace. There are much better grounds around. And as for cars being parked around the ground, remember this is local footy after all.

Get over it Northern. Its a great idea for the league to have it on a Sunday afternoon, following in the same footsteps as many other leagues around Victoria. The ground will be perfect come Grand Final day and the atmosphere will be great. Cant wait to attend, will be much better then playing at wind swept Epping ground. Also from memory, not to many cars are parked around the ground on GF day anyway due to the size of the crowds. Plsu another thing, the league will make more money, as there is no way into the ground without paying, unlike the Epping ground.

Is there anyone from mont who can confirm if the game will "televised" into the rooms this week? Great place to be watching the game in the rooms in front of the fire if it rains!

Spoke to Ed this morning. Yes it will be.

IGreat place to be watching the game in the rooms in front of the fire if it rains!

This maybe nice for the women Devil, but surely the atmosphere outside, braving the elements, sledging & cursing umpires, opp players & opp supporters is much more fun??

What about missing out on the blood curtling sounds of player on player crunching or worse the sound of Kickass as he demolishes his 27th Dim sim & 15 can for the afternoon??

P.s - please save me a seat near the fire

The only Epping would beat Heidelberg. Even if there entire team was injured, I would back Heidelberg's reserves to beat Epping.

if epping win i will be seeking a chat with you.can't see it happening though.
what odds an epping/richmond double??

Last time these 2 met @ Heidelberg Epping had a decent crack. Given all that has happened to Epping since and playing @ home I believe they're going to have a good go. Good luck to all the boys.

i will take your'e word for it but if it's anything like what i saw a few weeks ago,well i guess there is still a few weeks till the finals.
i am not complaining about the ground as a venue,will be fantastic and not minus ten like at epping but was a little concerned about the centre square area

Played in that game .We threw it so Lalor would get relegated to second division.I think we got about 15 barrels from lower so they could stay up.:D
