Central Murray FL

[buddy buddy]

I have heard there are more than one CMFL club linked to this jet. His home town Kerang, are very keen to gain his services. But has said he is waiting for the NTFL season to finish to make a decision.

looks like he will end up playing in bendigo if its true about him accepting a job down there.
i see the points system is causing unrest between clubs again with the board deciding filo should go back to kerang as a 1 point instead of a 7 point player for season 08. really makes them look ridiculous on the way they made bannam back to tyntynder a 5 pointer and russell back to balranald a 5 pointer as well.

Has anyone got any info on raiders recruits? Is Matty Dehne still gunna play and is Jumbo going round again?

Echuca united play them in a few weeks in a trail game so I'll let you know how they are looking , we'll see if kahmal taylor is doing the job or just turning up !

yeh some like that out at woorinen with robbo dont no about goldsmith,
and yeh swan hill have lost plenty dont forget evns one of there stars but they look o have covered them with some great recruits, i have heard that a fot may be heading over seas any truth??

what is happening with luke damon is he still at tiger land....

 

[Lincon Hawk]

i think it is something to do with what they owe the footy club..

Interesting to note that the 5 players leaving swan hill, pekin, burke, brooks hufer, and D thompson?, are being replaced by s lawry,j kreuger, g tasca and j davies, all barring clearances are looking fairly strong again, will these players coming in cover the losses...is the rumor that A foott may also be departing...any insight into this R Mill.

I see on the transfer list that Grant Tasca and Justin Davis are both cleared... The interesting one will be kruger, will the nyah make it hard for him to leave or will they finally let him go, or will he stay if they offer some thing lucrative...Iam betting he will stay there...

Jason has been promised his clearance if he wants it, that was the deal last year when he decided to play the 2nd year of his 2 year contract !!

Yes..

Interesting to note that a few of the boys at Kerang were pushing 14 in the beep test. Dickson, Coates and young Troy Davis competing for the honors.
Just wondering if any other clubs are using the beep test in their preparations for the upcoming season. If so, what level are they achieving?

I would think if most clubs didn't have a handfull of players pushing 14 at this stage of the year they would be behind what is expected. From what I've heard Kerang has been working hard but by no means ahead of the pack, who hasn't been working hard at this stage of the year.

how's birchmore doing up kerang, pulling a few players

Birchmore comes with one possible two. That includes his mate Mark Walter back for Kerang.

Fantastic website the guys from Boga have produced!

Obviously the most professional club in the Central Murray League and having concentrated all their efforts over summer on the upcoming season as opposed to fishing and boating on the lake look for a big year.

I believe they are close to signing Mark Lloyd too, the speedster who made his name in the Bendigo FL for his beloved Golden Square Bulldogs.

Lloyd has signed again with Golden Square much to the disappointment of many interested cmfl sides.

Cheers that would be great "dropthesirenAcky". Whats the go with "kahmal" nick name for Peter Taylor?

 

[bads]

Am very interested to hear any reports on how Peter Taylor is going as coach. I saw him play a few games with the rovers and he was shi? scared so couldn't see him being a great leader on the field.

 

[Micky]

Yes..

Ditta could u or any one else give me any info on the woorinen recruits?

 

[ROOTA#6]

I am sure all CMFL followers are saddened by the tragic passing of former Nyah player Haldane Nelson. A terrific fella who will be missed by many around the league.

 

[Deckchair]

G'day all, does anyone have an opinion on the 'Filo Fiasco'.

How is it possible that Shaun could possibly be transferred back to Kerang at one point???

Is there anyone on this site that holds a seat on the league board who could enlighten me???

 

[Catfreak]

Pete was one of the best young footballers in the state was ready to play AFL but his coach said he was lazy and pushed the point to potential clubs I believe he was 3rd in pioneers BnF and not drafted. After that he played one year at EU and won a BnF as well as played 3 or 4 games on the Carlton sup list. Gave up on the dream moved away and just coasted, still has the ability to play some of the most exiting football around. Could excell as a leader and suprise many will see him in a few weeks and see how he is travelling.

DECKY,
I AM LEAD TO BELIEVE THAT THE LEAGUE TOOK INTO CONSIDERATION THAT HE HAD SPENT 5 YEARS AS COACH AT KERANG PRIOR TO THE BALRANALD TRANSITION. I BELIEVE THERE WAS A BIG DEBATE HOWEVER THIS IS THE DECISION THAT THEY CAME TO. I'M SURE KERANG AND FILO WOULD BE HAPPY ABOUT IT HOWEVER I CAN UNDERSTAND THE CONFUSION AS UP UNTIL THE LEAGUE MEETING FILO THOUGHT HE WAS A LARGE AMOUNT OF POINTS AND CONSIDERING NOT PLAYING TO KEEP POINTS DOWN FOR OTHER RECRUITS.

VET,
CAN YOU ENLIGHTEN US FURTHER HERE NOW YOU ARE FILO'S PERSONNEL ASSISTANT AND NUMBER ONE STATS MAN?

Welcome to Big Footy PT

RAIDERS WILL BE A VERY DIFFICULT CLUB TO COACH ESPECIALLY ANYONE BEING A FIRST YEAR COACH. THEY LIKE TO ABUSE EVERYONE, OPPOSITION COACHES, PLAYERS, THEIR OWN PLAYERS AND OWN PEOPLE. STRANGE BUNCH OF PEOPLE. GOOD LUCK TO HIM FOR HAVING A CRACK. IT STRANGE THAT COHUNA WOULDN'T HAVE A CRACK AT HIM AND WENT WITH HIRDY. NO OFFENCE TO HIRDY THERE.

Not on the board but i heard that the board said he transfers back at the points he left,
BUT under that reasoning, why was Garth Russell a 5 pointer going back to Balranald last season?? He was a 1 pointer forthem before transferring to coach.

Well siad Roota. We will miss him dearly, but love him forever !!!

because cohuna wanted an experienced playing coach and peter has neva coached before,hirdy i know isnt playing but cohuna instead of throwing huge dollars at a player to coach them decided to go with someone local and spend a bit more on good players like Jonny bell!!

i have heard from our club reps that when the league was asked about this topic at the league meeting this month not one of the board could come up with an answer that was convincing. they were questioned on the garth russell and kane bannam issues being exactly the same and they tried to get out of it somehow saying that it wasn't the same at all. then the chairman just moved off the topic without the situation being resolved an shaun will be a 1 pointer much to the disgust of every club except for kerang of course. GO BLUES!!!

I have said it before and I'm sure I will say it in the future. The CMFL board are the joke of the VCFL. Don't expect common sense and logic for thats far too difficult for those jesters.

I agree in part with the Filo ruling (perhaps 2/3 points) and the Russell decision should have been lower. Bannam however should be maximum as no coaching was involved.

Perhaps it should be just cut and dried and plain to see with no room for exceptions at all. If you come from another club within the league you are x amount of points no matter what. Too difficult?
