Ruck is the most important position on the field. I think Winduss and Russell are the best in the league. Who do you think are the better ruckman in the league?

Winduss definately good, I would have to question Russell, shared much of the ruck load with Dom Clark and Moran this year. Needs to have a good year next year to be considered as one of the top in the league. Needs to learn how to judge the flight of the footy and jump up adn forward instead of backwards.
Sorry Gruss Monkey, I'd have to agree with NCFL about Russell. Nick Moran, AKA Boggers, was stiff not to take part in the GF. Nigal Ried from Gordan isn't a bad tap ruckman either.
Did anyone see deal or no deal tonight? (Monday) Mullane-Grant was on i think. I think he won $250, which i hear is about a third of what Ballan are paying him next year...
Russell a good ruckman, but he has to improve he's skills. I watched Waubra v Bunninyong last season at Bunninyong and Russell missed a goal from the goal square, and i hear skontra gave him a spray and told him to handball for the rest of the year. Unfortunately quality players dont do that. But i spose it payed off cause the Waubra boys came home with the Trophy.

I didn't see it but gee, $250...That's got to be disappointing for the big man. What happened? If that's true about his match payments, he'd be able to afford to take a risk or two and go for the big bucks!
Someone once said on here that he kicked 80 goals for the season. I saw him play a game this year and I'm sure he didn't kick a goal but both the paper and the CHFL website had him down for 2 goals! What's the deal (or no deal) there? Either way, 75 goals is a good effort!
Yep your right Harry, and someone told me that in that game Nick Moran played on Nolan that game in the last, and won the game for Waubs. Moran and Nolan, now theres a couple of blokes who would be good for the worlds brainiest footballer central highlands edition. Who else in the league could play???
Was that the Waubra game? He got dudded out of a couple of goals in an earlier game so it was just payback for him. Didn't he look great on telly, great head for radio
There are two brothers, one who plays for Daylesford (Tim Wright) & Learmonth (Dave Wright). Both were over heard having a conversation with Dave asking for a Black coffee with milk, and Tim being told that if you ever miss a call on ya land line phone, all you have to do is dial *10# with hs reply being " Im not that sill, I know there is no 10/ten on the phone."

No familiar with this guy... What type of player is he?? Can you confirm this signing Helmut?

Which position does he play, AJ?
No I can't and I would doubt it, simply because Scotty is in Queensland so I don't know who would have signed him. He is a backman who can play in the key spots and a very good player. Was either b & f or runner up at Sebas this year. I hope learmonth is right, but he's been wrong before and he might be jumping the gun again.
heard that dal byars was a definate to play at ballan this year and that tom sutherland has signed? oh yeah
Yes Wills is a very solid player, although you don't have to be a star to finish in the top couple in the B & F at the burra. Considering Wills is a full back and the ball is in his area 95% of the time, it would be hard not to catch a few votes occasionly.
Bunga looking good for next year. Knowles 100% going, along with D Quinlan and they are speaking to Rumble and Nunn.

Knowles & Quinlan will be very handy pick ups. I know Rumble has had a bad run with injuries over the last couple of years but when he's going he a gun.& as for Nunn he is no where near the player he was... do u agree Pelican ?

I'm fairly close to Tom these days but not as close as you Turtle. I think we both know you're telling a porky there...he hasn't signed anywhere.

Rumble, Nunn and Quinlan have all struggled with injury over last couple of years. All 3 are probably not as good as they used to be, and have missed a lot of footy so time will tell with all of them. Rumble and Nunn still young so have a lot of work to do over summer to get where they need to be to get a kick in CHFL, Quinlan is one of the best in the region when fit so if he can get 15 plus games in he will be the biggest pick up in the league.
Learmonth have signed McGuigan and co from East point so things looking good for them as well..

Massive signings for Bunga if this is true. In my opinion Nunn & Rumble will play at Redan- Thats where there heart is. Only thing that will stop them is injuries, where they would then go to the CHFL and be stars.
Quinlan was one of the best in the BFL a few years back, and even though he is bigger then Fat Domino, he will be a star in the CHFL, with his footy smarts and skill on both sides.
