Has been rather quiet here so thought I'd ask peoples opinions on all the AFL rule changes for 2019 and impact on us? As per previous years, the rule changes are basically defined for the AFL and local leagues adopt them as much as they want.
EFL got on the front foot over a month ago nominating which rules they would adopt and those they would ignore. Has anyone had a think about which rules would make sense for us and which would make it messy?
I imagine our comp will decide and publish in the new year once they're all back on board.

My belief is that we are bound by what AFL Vic Country decide. EFL being Metro can do as they please.

The question still remains though, which would make sense for us and which are possibly going to cause problems?
I am on the look out for some old 'Football Records' from the Tungamah Football League (which ended after the 1995 season) and copies of the 'Weekender' from the old Goulburn Valley Division 2 competition (which disbanded around 2004). Some of its past member clubs were Alexandra, Thornton-Eildon and Yea.
Home and away or finals editions are fine. I would prefer hard copies but scans are fine as well.
Please message me if you can assist.

I'll have a scratch around Mortlock, no guarantee's if I have anything left but I was involved for the last 3-4 seasons of the CGFL before the rug was pulled out from under us by the VCFL powers that be at the time.

Some may have already read it, but I found this an interesting insight into the amount of work and effort that went into getting Kinglake on the park in 2009

Thought i would post this on the off chance some people don't know about it. First big footy related event of the year for the Yarra Valley and all funds raised going to a fantastic cause. Dig deep and enjoy the night!

Ended up being a fair few people who went (Oz thought it might have been 2000+) and a good night all round.
Look forward to next years!
Doveton Eagles Football Club looking for a practice match for our u19s and Women’s teams on March 30. Would prefer to play at home but can travel.
For either game please contact club President Shane McGrath on 0466 459 360. Cheers

Totally contry to what has been but out by the league. I've seen they have actually asked clubs if they want EVERY umpiring position filled, as they have a MOU with South East who have an abundance of Umpires.

Abundance of umpires is an exaggeration.

The practice match between Thornton and Nth Croydon/ Mt Lilydale was called off due to a massive Barney. North Croydon/ Mt Lilydale boys then resorted to smashing up Thornton rooms.

Look at Olinda. Been super good over the last few years.
The reserves who played off in a grand final in their last game just got done by 170 points and there under 18's but 193 points.
While the seniors will work out their level its the reserves and 18's who will be impacted. Unfortunately the numbers in these towns cant support good reserves numbers compared to the new sides.
This will get VERY VERY ugly this year. Try convincing people to play local footy when they are getting smashed. I know its early but i can see a lot of the mountain clubs struggling to field sides in the next few years when interest goes.

Wandin defeated Berwick today in what I thought was an excellent game. Nice to see one of the valley clubs have a win over a SE club anyway.
