View Full Version : Wimmera Football League Under 17's 2009
I posted this thread especially for the Wimmera League under 17's.
Hopefully people use this as a place to talk about the under 17's players,score and whatever else instead of the other Wimmera League thread.

Ok so apart from Horsham who does everyone think could contend for the flag this year......
After a disappointing last year I think the young warriors should make finals as they have all ready gained a few players from Great Western and else where and gain some very handy U/14 players up in the likes of Dave Morris and Ash Cowen who both proved themselves last year in the under 17's......

So who can we expect a big season from next year?
Blokes who perhaps did well last year and are now into their last or second last years in the 17s??

hopefully Jae McGrath will shine in his last year with united and 17s. Expect him to be captain alongside Brodie Mines and a few others...

You can expect a big season from Stawell. Underacheived this year and had enough guns to be a top 3 side but they were unable to connect on the field. The 14's were the top side this year so a few handy rookies are heading their way up into the 17's this year.
Expect Minyip-Murtoa to fall through yet again, don't have enough cattle in the juniors and they might make bottom 3. But with all these new recruits, we might see the likes of Liam Newell and others of his calibre returning to the 17s.
Horsham will have a strong side as their core age was 16 this year. These boys will have a premiership underneath them and should finish top 2. Hate to say it, but they will win the flag.
Nhill might sneak into the top 5 if they play like how they were this year. Will be missing a few players but Marty Dufty should still be playing if i am correct. They will still be hard to beat so keep an eye out on them.
Ararat will be top contenders this year. Expect top 3 also. Shouldn't fall into the bottom end of the table for years to come. Too much class coming out of the Rat town.
Diggers will be struggling with numbers after half the team advances into senior football. Good to see a few boys have stuck it out and are going to stay while there will only be a few boys from 14s coming up. Jae McGrath to captain. Just missing out on the finals.
Warracknabeal will finish 5th this year. Get a few, drop a few, not much happening in tinsle town.
Saints will do pretty well this year only if they keep their juniors in the junior ranks and not seniors. Some nice players developing in their stocks and might make it to the granny. Top 4 i would say.
Dimboola will be wooden spooners, only kid that has an arguement against that would be star Ruckman Jayden Lehmann. But the rest of the Joeys will fail sadly. Expect the Roos to only win 1 game if anything.

k thanks for clearing that up for me. hows he go at footy?
Taylor on $100 a game. From his mouth himself.
Diggers have enough players for seniors and keeping Adam Taylor would be the worst for the club as he seems to sell himself around a fair bit
Well - WFL 17's is off and running. My end of year ladder (before finals) after pres easons games and completion of round 1
Horsham
Ararat
Stawell
Saints
Eagles
Nhill
Minyip Murtoa
United
Dimboola
Journeyman Adam Taylor has finally decied on a club and gone to Stawell most likely playing ones very soon and sure to do better than Cam (footsteps) Kimber. If he plays all year in U17's he will win league B&F and Stawell will do very well. MM will improve as reports are they are a big side and dropped a soda against United who were saved on the siren by one of our local Nardoo stars playing on permit. Diggers will struggle as they are too small and unskilled and not enough core talent or committed big men and even more so now that Taylor has gone and Mines playing ones. Horsham and Ararat looking good again with McKinnis sure to win the goal kicking but he should be playing ones if he wants to prove himself. Stawell now with Taylor and also Hart, Nuske, Dwyer & Hilbig a year older will be up there and well coached by Bach. Nhill lost the GF chance last year amid a sea of tears so now with half the side moved on they will be middle of the road again. Dimboola still lacking depth as no talent has moved up so they will struggle unless Sexton & Lehman dominate Saints to make the finals with the Knott boys and they are will drilled along with Eagles taking fifth but really any of the bottom 5 all will have a chance for fifth spot but no further as they are all about as good as each other.

First why footsteps? And he will probably play ones all year qualify for 17's and play the rest of the year in the 1's as will Taylor more then likely.

united bigger blokes had a dissapointing start but round 2 im sure they will lift the minyip vs united games wasnt to flash from united but its only round 1 and united has the four points

What a scumbag. Are you still mates with that fool? I have respect for blokes who have respect for me mate so yeah i would consider him a mate.
Really fancy pants and how much time did you spend with him over the summer to get the real facts. Seems you spent the whole time playing handball with your old cheese and bagging blokes who can play rather than getting facts to back up your comments. How many kicks did you get in yor dreamworld game this weekend?
Commits to going to Minyip/Murtoa. Then talks to Gyro ands says he will stay. Then has a chat with Saints who may or may not have offered him money. Then says he is staying at United. Then tells Minyip Murtoa he is assessing his options. Then ends up playing for Stawell (all fact).
For some reason Scotty decided to bring up something from a while ago. Adam has gone to Stawell so let it rest and get on with the season.
Fair enough but it is also fact that his family shifted to Stawell so it was inevitable that he would need to change clubs due to the fact he no longer lives or goes to school in Horsham anymore. I reckon it will be good for his footy future with a fresh change in the old redleg camp which are a much stronger and better managed club than United
Good to see JM kicking 5 goals for the Nardoo bombers on the weekend after winning the game for the Diggers in round 1. Would be good to see him full time in Wimmera league but I think he will stay out here with us

Do you think you will chase some other permit players or just make do with what you have?
I think we have to do with what we can now. Apparently there is no such things as permits anymore, you have to get cleared each time you play for a club. Thats just what i've heard from stephen mcqueen.

As a personal friend of Adam Taylors family i can assure you he is not receiving one cent to play with Stawell further more he started his football in Stawell where he then lived his family moved to Jung and he went to school in Murtoa and played for them till ha moved to Horsham where he played for United . Non of you fools realise he lost his mum and so almost 2 years down the track his father decided to return to there home in Stawell where Adam decided to play for Stawell . He is a great kid and has suffered enough without the crap you lot put on here at times if i was scotty d i would get my facts straight Adam has copped heaps from all who think he has gone for money he has gone because he wants to be with his family so leave the personal stuff out of it and let him do what he does best play footy .

ScottyD i hear there has been more injuries to the juniors for the diggers? Surely they cannot afford anymore injuries? It is looking quite bleak for the future of the team?
ClarkeM
18 May 2009, 22:43
Agree with the injuries ballz, suffering them by the handful. Good to see the co-captain back playing this week though after breaking his arm first round. Still naming a side each week which is all you want to hear.
Another player has broken his arm last week also so he will be out for a while and another youngster had his thumb stood on was apparently dangling by the tendons... not a pretty sight. Add to that, Ali Byrnes calf is catching up with him and McGraths knee is slowly getting there. Thats news from Diggers land.
Yeah the junior club is looking bleak as you say and i guess the only cliche that suits it best is "Shit happens", but this day and age though, anything could happen. The way money is treated these days with country clubs has ruined the competition.
Better to play in a losing, struggling club where you are guaranteed a run which is fun then winning premierships from the sidelines.
Only have to look at the upsides i guess with youngsters such as McLean and Johns pulling the boots on for 17s sooner or later. Very promising youngsters so keep an eye out.

Na actually moved here so yeah. Start of year. Na mate only one haha but there are some boarders that travel home each week to play still such as my mate who plays up in Mallee league for Sea-Lake. Don't know how he does it.
Oh well, still gonna watch each game we play from here on in.

Why footsteps nardoo
It is well known that anyone who has a nickname "Footsteps" tends to skirt around the outside of packs waiting for the easy ball and also get a little timid when they hear 'footsteps' coming behind them as they are keen to avaoid any physical stuff and shy away from a contest
