Yes. Also training with North Melbourne's VFL squad along with a couple of other Ballarat kids at the moment

Don't forget anybody above one point, such as Kiel, Thoolen, Keeble etc will all drop a point also.

I thought the young East ruck Martin handled Thoolen pretty well. As you say, Thoolen probably had more hit outs, but rarely to advantage. Martin clearly better around the ground

Good to see the CHFL sticking with old traditions. 4 out of 5 junior b&fs in football and netball going to Hepburn players. Wouldn't be rigged at all. Not sure how they mucked up the 5th one. I'm sure they can make it 5 out 5 next year.

I don't propose anything mate. Because it won't happen. AFL Victoria don't give a rats about country football, they are quite happy to sit back and watch clubs die as they bleed them dry. History shows exactly that. As the name suggests, AFL Victoria care about the AFL and nothing else. As long...

If you think the 5 MCDFL teams you have in Div 1 wouldn't get their ring belted in by the likes of Springbank and Beaufort you have rocks in your head

I'm lost for words

Why would somebody like Nick Graham, just as an example, want to play interleague? Does anybody think he would get some sense of pride or honour representing a league that he's played 4 games in after playing at the highest level? Same could be said for Andrew Hooper although at least he might...

Go and watch them then. I bet you’d fit right in. You’ll be able to critique them on their ability to compete against other suburban teams that they will never have to compete against. Be sure to let us all know how they’d go against Leopold or Strathmore or Heidelberg though because it’s really...

Yeah just responding to probably the dumbest post I’ve seen on BF - that’s saying something! But they say sarcasm is the lowest form of wit so fair cop

My point exactly

Blown off the park in the last quarter? So, what was the margin at the end? I went to Heads and Port, both would also get completely blown off the park by a lot of other suburban teams I've seen this year from other leagues. Like Collingwood and Geelong. Don't think I'll bother going again.

Not sure what they are thinking recruiting 2 blokes from the worst comp in the state anyway, but they aren't a loss. The 3rd, I assume is Dawson? As Ballarat had no game on Saturday, he may have gone home for the weekend & they've let him play for his home club maybe, time will tell. They...

No surprise. Sleeps with the lights on.

Lakers had 5 or 6 18 year olds play on Saturday. Big ask against the reigning premiers. Having said that, I think North had about 6 in their team as well but managed to account for Bacchus
