First of all you have just made a fool of yourself by the way you have portrayed Andy McKay, everyone in the league knows how good he is and he is worth paying money at the gate just to watch him in action.
Secondly i would like to hear an example of when Robbo publicly pumped his recruits, because he rarely idivualises. (if thats a word) Who knows if he is leaving at the end of the year, only himself and maybe the men in charge of the club would have any idea. He is in his 5th season as coach and correct me if im wrong, but every single club has turned over their senior coach during that period. A very loyal man and he gives his heart and soul to the club he is at and only the people in the know from the clubs he has been at would what i mean. If he did leave and some of our players followed, then good luck to them, its only because of the respect they would have for him (if they didn't like him they wouldn't follow would they?). Over era's players come and go and so do coaches and i'm sure Hepburn is a smart enough club to still be a force if this did happen. One thing is certain though New boy, so get this through your thick skull, when it does come time and Robbo and Hepburn do part company, he will not be owed a cent, and he will always be treated as a legend for what he has done for Hepburn over the journey. Not like another club who he ressurected, had a knee reco, actually broke his neck for,plus countless other injuries along the way. Yet they still to this day owe him money and are happy to bag him every chance they get. Like i said the blokes who were running the club at the time wouldn't bag him because they know differently.
Thirdly i dont know what you mean by the ghosts of Dunnstown, all i can do is give you our yearly ladder positions from 2000. 2001 finished 11th 2002 finished 6th 2003 finished 6th 2004 finished 1st 2005 finished 1st 2006 finished 2nd 2007 finished 3rd, this year travelling ok. i cant see any ghosts with a comeback like that.
As for the racial vilification i have know idea but i'll keep my ear to the ground and get back to you on that one, but we played Clunes 5 weeks ago, it seems strange that your trying to bring up something now and not straight after the event if anything happened.
Lockie is a good player, but lacking a bit of match fitness and touch this year due to schooling abroad this year so only training once a week and therefore not getting to much match time for the first two rounds, He elected to run with the ressies for two weeks to get his fitness up and was best on both weeks, thats not saying too much tho seeing how Newlyn ressies are going. I seen him play against Learmonth where he had tough match-ups on Wade Veldhuis and Nick Bone.

Dr Who, U need to read back over why that comment was made. U like to pick at the Learmonth Football Club because things didnt work out for your son. It looks like sour grapes to me. We have processes in place and as long as they are achieved then players will continue to develop. Its not about winning every game in the 2's but insuring that if an injury occurs that you have a ready made player to take his spot in the seniors.
As far as development goes, I think we are doing a bit better than Sebastopol as their results dont look to flattering.....
Ild be keeping your busy nose in that paddock rather than writing and assuming about a club you have no idea or attachment too.

HaHa..... lets just wait and see in about 2-3 years which club has developed and which has simply researched, recruited and then alienated any keen but not so mature players, mainly local. Senior players with u14 netballers doesnt count as junior development.
Hmmm.... how many of last years 18s actually get a run on the field even in the ressies? Gudgy, caino, burke, chappy off top of my head...... By ur statement they must be uncommitted and crap players, which i know they are not. No one mentioned winning, its about how these players would feel that ur opinion is 2s are uncommitted and bent, as that is clearly what u have said, in response to chflguy asking whos a good ressie player, i did read it all, and it is a legitimate topic in other leagues threads.
Doesnt sound like sour grapes, it is sour grapes. Why does anyone bag other teams? Best critics are our enemys as they see our faults clearly.
Oh yea....wasnt ur bro Tim heavily involved with sebas during their "very down times". Lets hope ur influence is nothing like ur bro's.
Can tell u that things are very different now they got rid of the bad eggs, lol!
Dont even try to compare learmonths junior development to sebas, my son has gotten more out of his few months with sebas than he did for the 18mths with learmonth. Advice constructive critisism and encouragement is what they give the kids. They also have absolute home grown guns coming thro, Henry, Powell, Wright, Noether and my fav lil bulldog Parks, just to name a few! not bought players and rock spiders.
You cant stop me expressing my opinion, so insult away cause..
My BUSY nose hangs out in any paddock it wants too!

Your a Deadset knob.
I'd love my son to play at sebas so he can get some real good ground work and have the right people around him to set him up for a good future in Jail.
As for 'rock spiders' i did notice you real a few of there 'young' guns names off................................

A point could decide Central Highlands leading pack
20/06/2008 12:22:00 AM
WHICH side will take a step away from the Central Highlands Football League's leading pack?
Barely five per cent splits Hepburn and Buninyong, with both sides sitting on seven wins from eight matches.
The winner will stay in touch with Bendigo Bank CHFL leaders Learmonth while the loser will slip back among quality chasing sides Daylesford and Waubra.
Hepburn has the best attack in the league, averaging 136 points per match, while Buninyong kicks an average of 113.
The goal kicking pair of Lee Cox and Andy McKay will still be the main targets despite the duo only kicking one goal between them for the Burras last week.
Buninyong defenders Adam Scott and Mick McKenzie will have to be ready for a busy day despite the Porter Industry Bombers having the best defence in the competition.
Hepburn will be weary of the amount of run that Rory Gilbert, Justin Orwin, Kenny Terry and Beau Guest can have from the Buninyong backline.
Burras full-back Gary Byers will have a big job marking Bombers full-forward Andrew Tranquilli while Alan Ware and Craig Leehane will be forced to keep an eye on Eddy DenOuden.
The mobile ruckman match-up of Hepburn's Salesi Uhi and Bomber Shane Lavery will be a highlight.
Buninyong's playing coach Joe Gilbert has led by example in the midfield along with Jarrod Morgan and Billy Leskosek.
For the Burras, Matt Peake and Matt Dillon continue to fight hard along with Danny and Jarrod James. Shane Rogan, Adam Bridges, Brendan Tudball and Ash Coulthard will also be important for Buninyong while John Comelli,
Ross Mann, Danny Abbott and Brendan Sheppherd should not be discounted for Hepburn.
With key match-ups all over the ground, the margin will be lucky to stretch beyond 10 points. *PREDICTION: Buninyong by one point.

thats funny, but i doubt there has been any complaints made to the committee about inappropriate behaviour on my part.... is that the case out ur way?
Fact is, comments are made on here that are clearly from ur coach, he uses the name learmonth and is representing ur club using that name. No regard is made for how other players may feel about his arrogant attitude.
I represent no club and am merely some parent with to much time on there hands, my posts are easily disregarded as sour grapes etc. however his are not. Surely somewhere in that empty space between his ears he can figure out that his sarcasim and insults should be made under one of his other names. Its really quite simple when u think about it!
Now run along and make another new group on facebook.....

anyone from hepbur inform me on how gun for hire salesi uhi is going and is he living up to there high standards? also does he attend training and club functions
To be perfectly honest, he hasn't done a great deal yet, not like what he used to do to us when he played for Ballan anyway. In his defence he did hurt a hammy against Daylesford after dominating the first quarter but played with it because he didn't want to let the side down. Then missed 3 weeks with the injury, (the bye included) last week was his first game back and he got better as the game progressed and was in the Burras better players.
Yes he gets to training as much as possible due to his working hours, attended our pre season camp, stays around after home matches, has a quiet drink with the boys after away matches. Goes to club functions and he and his girlfriend actually book accomodation and stay up here on occasions after the game. I have heard all the rumours of what he did at Ballan, but maybe Hepburn are a different kettle of fish and he is making the effort.

Can anyone tell me about a Robert Webster? A big man that apparently played for creswick last year. He has moved to north east vic and is looking for a game.
Yeah I think he's back. Played his first game of the year in the Granty game, and the game following that as well. Didn't play against Springbank though.

If your a parent then why not set an example for your son?
I dont even think your a parent because you spend alot of time in under 18s threads and surfing around on facebook so maybe stop lieing about your age or grow up either way this arguement is finished.

U started the pathetic immature insults...... i finished it and u cant handle it.
I simply wanted to make the point that comments are made in a manner that are totoally unnecessary, by the mouth representing a club......and he still hasnt learnt.
As for the rockspider comments that is fact not fiction!! ask someone on the commitee...... i am a firm believer in Megans Law and think ppl should be warned rather than things swept under the carpet.
