Sunbury played intra match on Friday evening and looked alright. Not sure where Aaron Thomas will fit in as looked to me be very overweight and not interested. Where will all their gun recruits play? Has Lee James signed at Sunbury or just using them as a training venue?? I noticed he has pout in clearance from Riddell to Mulwala, would be a very handy pick-up. Will be long nights at selection this year for Power & Co. Sunbury will finish top 2


I think A-train will play full back - can be back up to Pat Carriss but your right not fit at this stage. Lee James had 0 kicks 0 marks 0 handballs in the intra club game. May show the difference between the RDFL and the BFL is bigger than most think.

Sirvarlis and Henry will start round 1 in the middle, McCabe HFF or wing, Houlihan at FF and Beattie next to him. Mark's younger brother has been exceptional in the practice matches and is also a chance to play round 1. Mark may miss the early rounds after his little sister bit him yesterday and took a big chunk out of his arm.

Bit him!!??? interesting stuff.
 
KA I have only seen McCabe play 3 or 4 times, maybe the Darley guys are better to comment on this, but surely he would be playing on ball at Sunbury. Without knowing much about Savalis, although isnt he coming from a lower league, and never seen Henry play, after going on McCabes finals series last year, if he aint playing on ball then look out Sunbury.

If Power is fit he Sarvlais and Henry will start, Corey Brown as well. Sarvalis will be good - hard in and under player - he was Captain of parkside so Sunbury get added leadership from him as well.

McCabe will play everywhere - him, Griffen, Lewis will all rotate through the middle at different stages. They have a lot of options in the middle - but will they be quick enough to go with East Point is the worry.

I would say that Sunbury, Ballarat & Redan would have a quicker midfield that East KA? Faull doesn't leave the middle, Hutchinson plays goes forward but tends to float through the middle of ground, B.Jordon would be the only worry but a negative/fit player can run with him all day. You can through Banwell in the mix but he can be found out if you put a bloke on him that can run as hard the other way and exploit his defence.

I can't argue with you as I only saw East Point once last year. They came from 10 goals down at Sunbury to win by 10 goals. Maybe when a team has a 20 goal turnaround they look faster than what they are. But I thought there ball movement and speed was exceptional. I still think speed at Sunbury is the big concern.
 
KA When, where and what grades are playing in the Gisborne vs Sunbury game coming up?

31st of March - 95% sure it will be at Sunbury as it was at Gisborne last year. All three grades will be playing.

Look to Sunbury to field a very strong team. Power still has a burning hatred of Gisborne. Ever since his first game as a 17 year old - he ran out and beacuse he looked 10 the crowd at Gisborne were in fits of laughter. It was like a mexican wave of laughing that followed him to the forward pocket.
Not sure he ever recovered and maybe the reason for is small man syndrome.

I think you can leave ballarat out of that thanks mate....Redan And Sunbury and east point have probably the quickest midfeild in the comp. Ballarat Don't there just one of those mediocre football clubs.

Really looking forward to this match , i personally believe each year this game is as important to Mark as any that's played for 4 point's . No doubt he will be keen to go 1 up on the Bulldog's , so far it's one win each . Hopefully Gisborne field a side that's a bit stronger than it's been in these last 2 game's . I think only 10 or 11 senior player's played in last year's game.
 
The Corey Brown lining up for Sunbury wouldnt be the same Brown that played for Wang in the O&M and for Coburg and the Bushrangers would it? if so would dominate the league and be Sunburys best on baller.

Brown is a good player, a little underrated perhaps by opposition sides. seems to have good skill from what ive seen.

Oh good, the guy is a star, send him my hellos and best wishes Pev. Good to see your kicking a few, keep up the good work you had a few of the boys raising eye brows.
 
Anyone able to give me an idea of Melton's chances for the year ahead.. I noticed on the website they have lost a heap of players and havent picked up too many as yet... Just curious as to how to how realistic there chances are this year?

Cheers

Doesn't help Sunbury too much, as he is also unaccountable, along with the Lions other onballers.

Will Luke Sunders be playing this weekend against Melton South BB? Also when and where is the game.

The game's been changed to Thursday 5th april at night due unavailability of either ground old mate . Luke Saunder's has had a huge pre-season so far so i dont see any reason why he wont play .
