Some very hard work on the recruitment front at Manningham should see them placed a touch higher from what i have heard, which is great because it was looking very bleak a few weeks back.

Should add - all on the back of the new coach - certainly not assisted by committee. Well done to Frank.

plenty of yap from Aquinas but whats the story with SFX? How have they performed in practice matches? I'd be shocked if the wicks dropped so low..

Would have to have been a sterling effort, didn't the majority of their good players leave?

Fair effort if there was no help from the committee. Would have thought the whole club would be working towards a similar goal? Where did the recruits come from?

New coach - Allegedly very disappointed with committee efforts this far in terms of numbers to training, practice matches etc. From what i've heard has worked his backside off to get players down, including a large number of ring ins for practice match last week - some likely types from what i saw - hopefully can sign them.

Really good recruiting effort - plaudits to Frank.

Great effort! Hopefully Manningham have some positive results on the back of the coach's hard work!

Going by the VAFA website Chadstone will have two Club XVIII sides this season. Guessing it's a glitch on the site, but if not seems a bit odd.

Not a glitch TurbaLonie. They had a massive influx from a cricket club (from Glen Waverley I think) and can now field a 'Seniors and 'Reserves' across both clubbies grades.

They share a ground with Mt Waverley Uniting so maybe that's the link.

Another big name (but very little body) missing from a Masala practice match on the weekend - known shit-stirrer Wayne McMahon not sighted.

Thanks for the kind words and speculation but I could never leave the Masala den #gotiges

Word around town is that Wayne McMahon won't play again until reinstated to the leadership group.

Finally spied Matt Danson at training tonight and oh boy does that beard make him look even more ruggedly handsome... He got a good feel for the ball too, I've been watching for 3 years now i feel this is going to be his season!

Nup - doesn't do much research I'd suspect. Aquinas will win Div 4 easily IMO.

OK gentlemen - and I use that term in the broadest possible fashion - the season starts now. Silly season of insults, identity guessing, troll accounts and innuendo is officially over. You don't want to be red carded in the first week of footy action.

 

[bloodsrus96]

Great day down at bloods stadium with both Reserves (shorten game) and Seniors recording thumping 90 point wins. 19's unfortunately going down! Great start to the year and looking forward to round 2!
Young gun Liam Whelan banging through 9 majors was the highlight of the day! #bloods17

Aquinas are a lock for promotion IMO. A good two grades higher should be their current level.

A very long way to go Hedge...1 win is a great start but still have 7 other teams to play!!

Anyone know the scores for the Elsternwick v Manningham game? Nothing on the VAFA results page?
