Re: Possible recruits

Morgan is the guys name that Daylesford are talking too 6ft 7inc and had a knee reconstriction last season. Played at te Bulldogs last season, but is asking for massive $$$ and from my sources, Daylesford arnt prepared to pay that type off $$. Their President John Goulett has as much money as Commelli, and wants him big time.....

As for the Hepburn stories, wouldnt put it past them, as Robbo has a good relationship with the Bullants as a former asst coach. In my opinion, most would only be 2's players at VFL level, as senior players would get more down in melbourne and less travel. I think 6 would have been exagerated.... maybe 2-3....

My tip for the top 5 based on the draw as it favours Dford BIG time...

Dford
Waubra
Bungaree
Hepburn
Learmonth

Once again learmonth, your sources arent as good as you think mate. Morgan is no chance of playing a daylesford. Just a rumor that got started and spread onto a few people to get people talking. Although daylesford are talking to a very good player that should be a big signing in two weeks time. but sorry he isn't morgon. Daylesford recruiters were seen down geelong on saturday and sunday talking to a few boys down there mate, and one that you know well has all but guaranteed he will be playing. should be interesting.
Heard that norther bullants stuff as well and it is lies, no one wants to go down there

Couldnt see that happening as he is Buninyong through and through, but I guess stranger things have happened. May do a pre-season in their to get super fit and if he believes he is good enough to make the grade might have a crack at it. Im sure we will see him in the bunnies color this seson though.

Are the Mighty Gordon F.C. in this Comp?

The great Ian Denny use to play there in the mid 90's. As did my first Cousins Nick and Troy Maheras. Can anybody remember them?

What is the standard like in the Comp?
 
Am i corrrect in saying that Waubra start there 2007 title defence tonight??

Re: Possible recruits

Boys,

Heard some massive news regarding Hepburn over the weekend. If my sources are right Hepburn have signed 5 players from the Northern Bullants VFL!! Have also heard that a recently delisted AFL player will be lining up at Centre Half forward for daylesford next year. Can anyone confirm the Daylesford/Hepburn signings?

My sources have confirmed the Hepburn rumour... geez...the things people do for a dollar...
Bad enough that Daylesford's star recruit Michael Davis has to play his first game on the cow paddock at Gordon.... he might turn tail & run back down the highway to the big smoke after that!!!
 
Re: Possible recruits

Learmonth have voted for the top 6 and im sure that it will go through as its dependent on all sides.. Silly not to have a top 6 in my opinion[/quote]

Can I ask why it would be silly not to have a top 6? Isnt it rewarding a mediocre team getting to the finals in 6th. The AFL has 8 which is 3 too many.

It is all about money and that is it.

The only way the CHFL can go forward is to move with the times, and as stated before, footy is a small business. Small minded people like yourself who are happy with a 5 are the reason why the Australian economy is in the ********. Move with the times and stop using a Gas Lantern! Most civilised people can adapt to change and move forward. The ones who cant are uneducated and scared that they may have to do something outside the square. Why should the top team get a weeks break and only have to win 1 game to make a Grand Final. If they are truely the best side then winning 3 finals is a must to be classed as the best side, as Hepburn were spent last year after 4 finals compared to Waubra's 2.

Hopefully more people will understand this....

Agree the bottom side is just making up the numbers (but everyone said that about Learmonth last year & they nearly upset the proverbial applecart.) It is all about money... but at least in CHFL the clubs benefit from the profits. Another final gives the clubs opportunity to make more dollars on catering rights... & hardworking committees love that!!!

Let's just say it pays to finish on top. Very easy run into a grand final.

Ian Denny played and coached the 1988 premiership side (Gordon's last senior premiership) He was one of the best players I have seen in this league.

Troy Maheras played in that premiership side as well. He was 16. They had to get him out of school on the monday after the grandfinal for mad monday.

Nick was actually signed to coach Gordon in 2003 from memory but pulled out early January. Both were very talented players tho. Troy very classy forward and Nick tough onballer.

Anyone know of how Bungaree's meet the coach night went last friday? Any suprise new faces amongst the red & blue?
 
Hey Learmonth, Any truth to the rumour that 3-5 players will be returning from cairns to the lakies after next season with 1 of them coaching? If so, will be a tough job this coming season knowing that they have already planned for the future and it seems AJ isn't in there plans?

I know for a fact that the football department spoke to two guys (Ryan & Watty) not sure who the other 3 would be as im not sure if there are any more Learmonth boys up that way. As for the coaching, Im sure if Aj wants the position it is his. Due to his ankle injury I know he likes to do his contract year by year, and as for Aj, I dont think you could faulter his 1st season as coach. But then again funny things happen in footy!!!

Just on speaking to Aj, it is amazing the amount of $$$ players are asking for! BFL players from what I have heard who are b/t 18-25 best on the clubs list are asking for ridiculous amounts of $$ b/t 350-400 p/game.

I think some of these players who are openely putting themself on the market for this type of $$ should just get back to the basics and worry about getting a kick, rather then pumping their own ego up with massive $$$.
 
Anyone know of how Bungaree's meet the coach night went last friday? Any suprise new faces amongst the red & blue?

Heard Knowles will train with Bungaree, but hasnt made a definant decision on whether he will play their as he wants to get a feel for the club and see if he likes the CHFL and its professionalism. Redan are still pretty confident of keeping him. Barnett and Glasson will play with Bunga this season.
 
Not sure about that, but herad today from a very very reliable source that Craig Baker may be appointed coach of Gordon. Is darley assistant coach and a former asst coach of the Ballarat Interleague. Very handy pick up if this is true, and players rumored to go with him are Travis Stephenson (Massive Ruckman) Travis Digger Edwards, Lee Cox, and Im sure there would be a few more on the cards as well....

I guess we will have to wait and see..??

Have heard Lee Cox is going Melton South and big Stephenson is staying not sure about Edwards though. Also believe Knowles is going to Bungaree
