League was supposed to stay at 10 teams. Moving 2 back to Alberton will just kill whichever 2 it is. If I was a betting man I'd expect the league to breakaway from AFL Vic and rightly so
Panthercat does enjoy a good troll, and asking questions he knows the answer to. Heard Tarwin are looking good senior wise. No under 16's through the comp isn't a great start unfortunately, hopefully get it up and running next year
Basically Alberton has been changed to fix the Ellinbank league which has been a shambles for a few years, they have tried lots of things to fix it and this is the newest one. Alberton will probably drop off but at least teams should be on a pretty even playing field money wise. Hope they change...
No way they could compete, particularly with juniors.
I like the idea of a promotion, relegation system. Maybe combining Ellinbank and Alberton + Yarram?, gives you 28 teams. Top 2 tiers would have 10 teams, play each other twice, lower tier comp would have 8 teams. Top 2/bottom 2 switch each...
Been a good first couple of rounds looks like Foster have recruited really well with good wins over Killy bass and Fish creek. League looking a lot more even than past few years, good to see allies and Toora up and about early also
Nearly season time any new whispers a round? KB look to have recruited quite a few, most teams seem to have more ins than outs at this stage. Korumburra a basket case again, also heard number of Phillip Island players not playing for some reason? Anybody heard this, may be B.S.?
Killy Bass seem to have enough money to keep it going, also have pretty good junior numbers from what I know. Dalyston I would have more confidence in, essentially get Wonthaggi players who don't want to travel, strong juniors due mainly to this over the past 5-6 years and they have kept them around
Probably needs to be done, especially considering the gap between the eastern and western ends of Alberton, particularly in regards to junior football. Fish Creek will have a field day in the new Alberton comp if it stays that way.
Don't think it will end up exactly as they have planned it...
Few comments over the top meaning "should be banned for life" etc.
I never said 2 weeks was fair if you can read, I said 4, you can definitely compare similar incidents with the league tribunal to know what a fair penalty is, as I said that hit was nowhere near as bad as Halls, ball was there...
Few comments have been a bit over the top. I know it's different comparing Afl to minor leagues but if Barry hall got 6-7 then 4 for that is fair I think, suspended sentences are the biggest load of BS it's pretty hard to get reported. Seen a lot of cheap sucker punches and umps will pay free...
What's everyone's thoughts on finals?
Think stony to beat IK in a close one then Fishy to beat MDU by 4 goals tomorrow. Should both be good games, pity no1 will go to today's game due to travel
Wonthaggi rovers used to have all the juniors from the area while blues had none due to travel. Daly have taken rovers spot and got some good juniors out of it. Also got a good coach in and good people around the club, splashed some cash too and here they are. No such thing as certainties in...
Where oh where is panther cat? Looks like the arrogance finally caught up at long last. Tips for the weekend? I reckon Daly in the main game but the island have hit form at the right time should be a cracker
Fish Creek very stiff to miss finals, MDU will get slaughtered by the island in first final. Fishy will have played foster, invy, burra, island, dalyston & bass twice while MDu will have played bass, burra, tarwin, toora, foster, stony creek twice. If last 2 weeks go as expected fish creeks...
Some big games coming up over the next few weeks, league has completely stuffed the draw. Every week there'll be 3-4 games worth watching after 6 weeks of boring floggings? Would think you would want to spread out your blockbusters but anyway...
Interesting result on the weekend with I-K...
Certain top 3.
My guess
Killy Bass
Phillip Island
Dalyston
Fish Creek
Inverloch
Tarwin
Korumburra
MDU
Foster
Toora
Stony Creek
Haven't seen any teams yet but this based on last year/ clearances / general chitchat around clubs
Should be a good year!
Clearly giving finals to DWWW and toora is an attempt to try to stop them whinging, seems all those 2 and yarram ever do is complain to the league at least Devon and toora have the guts to stick it out, so hopeful that Yarram will go, the dirtiest team, also the team most likely to play an...
