A couple of big losses for Lakers. Rate Hayes as nearly there best player. If Pring goes as well, that's a lot of goals going missing.

Every club has 43, Melton and Melton south 45 Sebas 48. Are Melton lucky and Ballarat stiff?

Houghton to Melton Sth is a huge get. The kid can play. Very popular kid so if he stays beyond next season might see others head out to the panther land..

They lost a good local in Hibbert. Why’s that?
Clubs in the area have been chasing him for years.

So it’s money? Didn’t think a local would leave a club going places like South. Seems odd
Pretty sure he has close mates at Melton too

Anything positive possible. Anything?
Money talks. Helped the kid out big time.
Brought back another junior to the club.
But you keep bagging champ.

Different people have different priorities

probably has. But if you played for Collingwood all your life would you go and play for Carlton even if you were still wanted at the club.

go back thru last seasons post. I said let noddy go as someone might leave us and want to go to Melton in the future. Contracted player. Karma.

Hopefully a few boys from Ballarat are relocating to London this year and coming to play for the mighty West London Wildcats. We have had many over the years. Good blood stock down in the rat!

Pretty interesting that one. Lakers also losing a few. Maybe gives sides like Melton, Sebastopol, East and South a chance to play finals.

BFNL grand final day set to remain at Mars Stadium in 2018
The 18-round BFNL season is poised to commence on Saturday, 21st April. A highlight of round one will be the senior grand final replay between Darley and Bacchus Marsh, which is scheduled to be held at Maddingly Park under the newly-installed lights.
The draft fixture has night football as a feature in the early part of the year, with 10 games booked to be under lights. All of these games are scheduled inside the opening five rounds of 2018. Other highlights of the fixture include Redan’s first home game at the refurbished City Oval, which is set to take place in round three. The Lions will host Lake Wendouree.
“We are happy with the initial draft and the fact we have been able to find a balance between meeting most club requests and creating a fixture that is fair, balanced and promotes the league throughout the year,” incoming BFNL operations manager Shane Anwyl said.
The fixture will now be with clubs for consideration, with an opportunity to provide feedback.
The final 2018 Ballarat Football Netball League fixture will be released prior to Christmas.

“Whilst we could not cater to every club request, most have been accommodated and we will certainly be looking to work with clubs through the consultation period this week,” Anwyl said. “Clubs will be able to submit potential changes, and although these cannot be guaranteed, we will endeavour to reach an outcome that is positive for the league and all clubs competing. For the first time ever, clubs will also be provided an opportunity to apply to have matches brought forward to be played on weekends prior to the scheduled start of the season. The BFNL is excited by this new initiative and providing clubs with an opportunity to showcase their marquee games and promote the league in a positive light.”
