With yarra adding another player to there list in bohdi butts. How many more players do they have there eyes set on?
 
Box, I'm hearing a lot of the North players haven't signed yet & waiting to see what happens with aker, hearing a few will leave if he stays.
In saying that a few might leave if he goes. Would be hard not knowing who is coach. Hopefully the hoppers have a plan.

Corowa in almighty strife. There biggest problem is so many football clubs within such a small radius. With Rutherglen CDHBU & wahgunyah all within a stones throw of John ford oval. So total with such small populations between those areas hard to get a strong competitive football side, such a shame, only way I can see Corowa surviving is if one of those 3 sides fold

Not so sure that cdhbu could rationalize any further, it's a 3 way merge already. Alot of people talk about too many clubs being in the corowa area but surely that means more juniors in the area to recruit from?

You can't make kids magically appear, there are only a certain amount of boys in the town and all clubs are fighting over scraps. Just because there is more teams doesn't mean there are more kids.

If the O&M had a fourths, families would be more inclined to maybe head Corowa's way, but at the moment the Tallangatta and Hume leagues offer a more family friendly product where all their kids can play football and netball on the same day rather than fronting up for football on Saturday and then Sunday for the juniors.

I do agree, HTR, fourths are a huge draw card, as are 8 grades of netball, the whole family come out and have the weekend sport done with before 2pm. One thing district clubs do well, they realise that football and netball is just not about the sport but also a community and social event.

Aker is getting interviewed along with 7 other people for the role at essondon. I don't think it's a formality that he is going.
I he goes he goes I'm sure they will move on pretty quickly and have a suitable replacement whether that's internal or external.
 
is Aker any chance at all of getting the gig at Essendon? What's everyone's thoughts? I know we don't know who the other 7 are they are interviewing but does anyone actually give him a chance? Interested in your thoughts Mr Frank L
