[Harry Beavers]

Significant changes at Wandin. They should be contenders again.

Any news on what is happening at Woori? Very quiet as usual? Has Nick Tennant added any or lost any players?

Upwey would also be due to open their wallet this year? No doubt they would be disappointed with 2014.

I wonder if Belgrave will come under scrutiny from this forum this year? Big spenders, pretty thin on results?

Trouble is no one cares about belly

 

[mouth]

Not sure how much truth is behind it all but out of upwey camp hedge, Heinrich, Davis, gooley and van horn all retired from the game surely not....also backup ruckman currey to Kilsyth on reported $800 a game
Also Liam obrien(ruck) to Knox in efl.

With all the outs frees up the salary cap but good players are hard to did and don't think any one can replace the first names I mentioned all superstars in the own right.

I give monny 2 more years in first div heavily reliant in the same blokes week in week out. Koole wragg ward can't go on forever
A lot of players around late 20s
Recruits haven't brought much youth besides Williams
In a comp that will be neck n neck there able bodies need to stay in the park cause there's not coming through

Belly had a rough year I would've tipped them for top 3 last year
Wouldn't right them off

Years glen up then down older blokes then monny tipping a dry winter there pigsty won't slow teams down as much as they'd hope

Wandin...wow some big names won't have such a slow start I'm betting

[Bertron]

don't worry about Monbulk, they relied on there old warriors in the past and hence struggled in finals on big decks
however with major, mohr,( both very underrated backmen who rarely get beaten) Williams, favrin, Armstrong etc they will be the big movers this year, they have a good mix of old-young, tall-small, inside -outside
they need a bit of luck with there depth but doesnt everybody!
should be another close exciting year with wandin being the yardstick and Belgrave will be interesting to see the turn around after a diabolical year

Avid follower of YV footy but only just registered on here. Follow mostly 2nd so thought i would go with what i have heard and seen on Facebook rumors.

Seville IN: ??
OUT: M.CECERE, J.CECERE

Powelltown IN: G.NEWING, P.SHARP (heard it fell through)
OUT: L.TINDAL, W.GORDON, M.GORDON, M.HORSLEY

Thornton IN: D.WALLACE, J.HERRIDGE
OUT: C.TILLER, D.KING, B.COLLIER (heard his knee was no good)

Junction IN: ??
OUT: ??

Alex IN: ??
OUT: A.COWLSHAW, D.TOOMEY, T.COOK, R.COMB, G.NOONAN

Gembrook IN: C.CLARKE, R.CAUSER
OUT: L.MCCOMB, D.TYRELL

Kinglake: IN: B.WILKINSON
OUT: A.GOODWIN (surely retiring)

Yea IN: ??
OUT: ??

Emerald IN: ??
OUT: J.TAYLOR, M.LIVERMORE

Would think that Gembrook would be the big movers with Clarke back and Sev, Junction and Pow idleing depending on Sharp. Thornton might drop off loosing Tiller and a couple of older heads retiring. (Pup and Kingy looked past it last year anyway) Also Alex look to be loosing a heap it might be all of the Northern teams down the bottom this year.

Hopefully that gets things started. A few of those ins and outs need confirming and more to add im sure.

Good post Cuckoo.

Livermore is still at Emerald, was never going anywhere. I have heard they also have got Ryan Simpson back, the Volta brothers, a young ruckman from Noble Park and a few other handy ins. I was told they only lost Taylor.

 

[Local Knowledge]

Jarrod Dalton already on the move from Wandin. I see a few are on the transfer list from the Kennel to the Ammos; maybe Wandin aren't "amateur" enough!.

My classes are going well, lol Wandin will go OK this year, they have picked up some quality players, and really the few players they have lost they have more than been replaced.

 

[TeeS]

Wandin will be the team to beat, good in's offsetting big outs. But IMO, the best "In" is the coach. They'll be bloody hard to stop..

from clearances it appears kinglake have simply moved don rd to lead to kinglake rather than healesville
