Honest goer who stayed loyal in recent years despite much better offers elsewhere. You might want to change your vegetable analogy and call out some of the more highly paid spuds in the Tigers recent history - Miller, Archer, Grimley & Huy to name a few.
$$$ wasted probably equals the GDP of a...
The wind was BOG by a mile. Haven't experienced a squall like that since the old DVFL finals used to be held at Epping. Goal posts weren't just swaying they were bending in the wind. Early on thought the Auskickers on the bottom Greenhills ground would be blown down the Hume Hwy.
Full marks to...
Realistically, Heidelberg appear cooked for 2017. Currently equal bottom and have three tough games in a row after the bye. They are too far back and would need to win the majority of the last 10 to figure in finals action. Current form flukey at best and even with the return of key players...
Perhaps someone on the inside could provide the back story to his termination ?
Spoke to the man himself at the game Saturday and other than being dirty on being suspended and Morang losing, he gave no indication his neck was on the block. Morang went into the game 3-0, equal top and whilst they...
Yes - appears that 140 years of history has gone up in smoke after 3 rounds. Extraordinary AGM this week will see the Prez ousted, coaches sacked and players cleared to clubs of their choice. Final action will be to hand the pavilion keys back to the City of Banyule and soccer can move in...
1876 - Twenty years older than Richmond FC. How does your club stack up by comparison? Suspect they might be around for a while yet.
Another history lesson- they are the only reason the NFL exists and your affiliation fees are no longer being pumped through gambling venues.
GAGF.
Best to reserve judgement until they actually suit up. Isn't this the same group who tried to get to Banyule via the ammos? Are they now trying the same move but via West ?
Coulson the interesting one - ex Banyule junior who has played with the Northern Blues and Heidelberg - should be prominent...
Big shout out to 'The Ledg" on his appointment as Media Guru for the AFL Goldfields. Just reward for due effort.

Young an ex Watsy boy returning after a solid stint at Heidelberg including a senior grand final and two reserves premierships. Strong overhead and a proven goal kicker. Providing he stays injury free should be prominent in Divvy 2.
Cracking game at Riddell yesterday which was a great showcase of local footy. Played at a frenetic pace and with great skill. Cooke a standout for the Cats with Markworth's individual heroics in the last quarter nearly getting them across the line. If you can get hold of the tape, have a look at...
"Pathetic Invisibles" - this - hilarious.
So let's chronicle a typical Saturday for Chris - arrive at the allocated ground approx. 9.00 am, put on the umpires greens , warm up, officiate as a central umpire in the thirds. Quick warm down, shower, change into civvies and grab a bite to eat and...
Might wander down for a peek at the two old rivals and main contenders. Hopefully both are at, or close to, full strength to get a true gauge of where both sit with finals looming.
Hooper v Gilmore duel in the ruck should be a highlight and will heavily influence the outcome of the game.
Vale Mont legend Grant Wilmot who passed suddenly last weekend. Stellar playing/coaching career including Mont, Preston VFA , Colingwood, Eltham, Heidelberg, Heidelberg West and Croydon.
"If you buy the ticket, take the ride".
As usual, plenty of hate on the Divvy 1 board for Heidelberg, particularly when they are up and about again. Crazybear, you weighed in so an observation or two re happenings at the Bear Cave.
Banyule has been very active in the recruitment stakes, a mix of former players and new heads...
Young Nolan found not guilty assisted by some open and honest evidence from the Rupo player involved.
Strike out coincidence and confirm conspiracy.
The defence rests your honour.
Will play on but not necessarily in the RDFL. Plays on the edge at times but appears to come under greater scrutiny than others who transgress with impunity.
Second report this season by the same umpire. Coincidence or conspiracy?
Could be a lively tribunal hearing tonight if the Riddell...
Big shout out to Michael 'Bruiser" Brunelli and Nick Miller on their respective appointments as Captain/Vice Captain at the Tigers Den.
Both have overcome horrendous injuries that would have put lesser players out of the game.
Just reward for effort and resilience.
Will probably finish Stant's AFL career - perhaps he'll suit up for his old club the Crazy Bears in 2017?
Only upside is the Cougar's Hal Hunter will (hopefully) get an outcome after two years out of footy. Potentially the first in a long line of litigants against the EFC/AFL.
Bulls Ricky Dyson suspended for 2016 as part of the WADA decision. Knock on effects in other leagues as well.
Rules are rules but disappointing for local footy.
More like a howitzer - probably the best defender in the O&M and a supreme athlete. Allan a mid field jet with a V12 engine and a deadly left shoe. Hicks a quality small forward - if he could defend possibly could have played more footy at a higher level.
Three high quality gets for EDS - must...
