Re: Possible recruits
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....[/quote]
Not sure how my education comes into question here and I am not sure how I am small minded as well. Having completed a four year Education degree and now working in the Education Department I would hardly say that I am uneducated. The drugs you took at Daylesford may have affected your brain.
What do you mean go forward?
Giving a sixth team a spot in the finals is rewarding mediocrity. It should not happen. I believe there should not be finals and the team who finishes on top over the season should be the premiership team. Eg. Premier League soccer.

On Gordon I believe that SMW Rovers are chasing Nigel Reid which would be bad luck after the good news of getting Baker
Also got to agree with Learmonth that the CHFL does need a final 6 with 14 teams in the comp while the team that finishes 6th might not be the best during the year the great thing about footy is once finals start you only need one month of good footy to make an impact like Learmonth proved this year when they were only a couple of point away from a prelim

Agree Top 6 is the way to go. This league has capacity to be very even for first 7 teams and given the amount of talent coming into league some clubs will want a top 6 to justify spending money and not making finals. I read about Hepburn attracting a heap of blokes from Bullants, if true will make then start a warm favourite for next years flag.
Also need to say the Knowles WILL BE going to Bunga, along with Dru Quinlan there maybe a handful of others to compliment this team.
Ballan are about to have a crack, quite a few sebastapol blokes heading that way. ButDaylesford is the big watch Davis and Family will have a big impact. could make a case for a few Waubra also although not sure if they will be fit enough as they only started preseason a week before carlton..

(premier league soccer scenario)This would be an option if everyone played eachother twice. In fact they could split this league in two, as the top 7-8 sides are in their own league and the remaining could either join lexton plains or have a divvy 2 in CHFL. Both having top 4. Then you would be able to reward mediocriity by letting the bottom half play finals,it wold also mean the goal umpires wont have to wave flags as often in either division....this is actually starting to make sense to me so I better stop in case someone takes it serious.

Is it true that Waubras P Doods dream of becoming a Liberal candidate for Ballarat is over? Word is he was left Red
yep sure is, unfortunately

Not too sure if he was left Red Faced. From what i saw out at the cup, Teddy boy was the one Left Red
Faced after he reached for the high five and got left hanging, he was the laughing stock of the Bird Cage tent.Not too sure if he was left Red Faced. From what i saw out at the cup, Teddy boy was the one Left Red
Actually saw Teddy boy on the tv today his red face has healed not to bad. I'm led to believe the man in question has a head looking like a snake trying to shed it's skin.
Who was the waubra bloke that got kicked out of the bird cage just before the last race cup day because he had sh*t his pants!!!! Literally!!!! ********in hilarious when I was told!
Good on him if thats true. Astro Boy, how's waubra shaping up, have heard your've lost only stepnell who's 110 yrs old anyway so all set for another crack at it this year. Is it true Mully (shaun)is off to Darwin for 3-4 months in the new year?
Is this because the coach put in for the Rebels job?
That would hurt waubra massively! Averages at least 1- 2 goals per match aswell as 30+ touches... Would need to replace him I'd think if they were to win it again this year. (IMO)
Thats very true, i dont think Waubra have a chance without him. Hes out until August, that will hurt the boys.
Also the Waubra boys had there premiership photo on Sunday at Vic park followed by a 20/20 cricket match. Some of these boys have a lot to be desired for when it comes to cricket, especially one S Mullane, who took 2 hours to put every piece of padding on possible because he was scared of the brutal pace of a man named 'The dirty bird' only to be bowled out for a golden duck. Another noticable window licker was L Oliver. On the footy field he can lay a good hip and shoulder, but when it comes to catching a cricket ball he's alligator hands really dont cut it.
If mully goes to Darwin does that mean Naylon will go aswell? Seems to live in his shadow over the past couple of years?
Been told by very close source to Shaun Mullane has guaranteed that he will captain Waubra again NO DOUBT about it.
