Re: D4 Section Ammos

What's your mail on Syndal Tally Ho coach? Based on last season I wouldn't have thought they would scrape into the finals this season...

Also UHSVU - that would be a fall from grace from D3 last year to missing finals in D4 the following year.

Re: D4 Section Ammos

Should be an interesting season with the drought, new teams on board and the constant chatter on here! Throwing the crystal ball into the air;

Bulleen
St Marys
Albert Park
UHSVU
Box Hill North
Eltham
Eley Park
Syndnal Tally Ho
North Brunswick
Mt Lilydale
Richmond Central
South Mornington

Eley Park to be the big improvers if they have been doing hill climbs at their home ground!

Can't see North Brunswick winning too many games this year. Second last for mine... maybe even bottom (nobody seems to know anything about Sth Mornington although I gather they didn't win many last year).

Spies tell me Richmond Central have turned the corner. They are my tip for the big improve this season - perhaps no longer wooden spooners for once.

Also heard on the grapevine that there were a few disgruntled St Marys players unhappy with the decision to bring on the 2 new playing coaches - disappointed that their ressies coach from last season didn't get the gig.

Re: D4 Section Ammos

Top five for me would be:
Eltham, Albert Park, St mary's, Uni High and BoX Hill Nth.

And just on a few saints players being disgruntled with the new coach. this couldn't be further from the truth all the boys are rapt to have jedda and vaughn back in the fold and are looking forward for the season to get underway, as i'm sure everyone is.

i think your crystal ball is on the money, except that your top 6 is upside down.

Your spies appear to be on the money On the Full. Numbers at training for the Centrals have been excellent so far, with over 50 players showing up at least once and averaging 30 plus at each session.

Hard to see them not winning the flag in 07!

How are the new players from Old Westbourne going at their new club Centrals07?

How are the new players from Old Westbourne going at their new club Centrals07?

Danny is doing a terrific job as senior coach and you're probably aware that he has brought his son Oden with him down to the Centrals. As far as I'm aware though, he is the only Westbourne player that has come across. Danny's a very honourable bloke and has made a conscious effort not to try and poach players away from Westbourne, which I think is a testiment to his character.

We're mainly trying to improve the skills of our current players and we've managed to pick up a few newbies along the way. Still a very long way to go but signs so far are encouraging.

Just one win for the season would be an improvement so the club can only head in one direction from here. We've done some pretty hard yards over the past few seasons and the current crop of players have shown a great deal of heart to stick together.

The committee have been working tirelessly over the past two seasons and whilst we're yet to create a successful on-field culture they have done everything in their power to ensure that the club remains alive and well in the future.

I think you may be getting another one down there as well C07. A ruckman by the name of Steve Laird. If so I think you'll be pleased - he rucked most of the first half of the year in our seniors and did a pretty good job. 6'4"-6'5" thick set and pretty mobile.

You're right, Danny is a very honourable bloke. He put a lot of time into the club and developing the players that played under him. Our ressies went from middle of the road to losing in the prelim against a side stacked full of senior players. The most noticable change amongst the group last year was the belief he instilled amongst the players - every week they went out they thought they could win, regardless of who they were playing or what the make up of the side was.

Hopefully he can bring some of that belief back to your club. Good luck for the season and tell Danny that Platters said hello.

C07; Perhaps I'll have to reassess my ladder - Centrals to finish last.... You'll need to do a bit more than "improve the skills of current players", and you'll need more than "a few newbies" based on last season's results.

If you're happy with just the one win for the season then the wooden spoon should be back at KB this year.

There will come a time when Centrals will stand tall and take immense pride with the success they will have achieved. Although I am not part of this club, I have a strong sense that they re-building the club from the ground up based on integrity. This will pay off handsomely in the long run both on and off the field. Compared to those clubs who look for quick gratification and abuse the system, I know you guys will always be able to hold your heads high when it comes to signing the VAFA's stat. decs.
Hang in there Secretary!

Nothing at all. There wouldn't be a grade lower than D1 were it not for fat old blokes.

Just curious as to who this bloke is... and potentially questioning the 'mobile' attribute.

Re: D4 Section Ammos

seems like this year the league will be quite strong from all the banter going on...

saw on box hill north site that they have been training at dunloe ave... sorry to say guys, I grew up swimming in that pool, not much of a pool , its a indoor 20mtr with depth 1.5mtr. hardly get a work out in between the old grannies doing aqua aerobics and pissing in the pool.

nice people down there must admit and the gym has decent weights, but not enough for me!

put the Q out there, whats the max bench press at your club?

Spy1 doing the full press above Mrs Spy, now there's a massive weight lifting effort.

Re: D4 Section Ammos

Have we had confirmation that Anthony Banick will indeed be running around Ferndale Park this season?

Also, anyone know how the new clubs - South Mornington and Mt Lilydale are shaping up for 2007?

Last I heard Anthony Bannik was living in Yarram ... a two and a half hour trip out of town on the South Gippy highway.

Would be an amazing commitment by him to make a five hour round trip each weekend.

Screw the naysayers, good on you guys! At least you've got the cojones to give it a red-hot go this year.

Make sure you let everyone know well in advance when your home game at Punt Rd is on - should be a great feeling running onto the hallowed turf.

I can't remember what number Lairdy had. 100kgs, 120kgs..... either way he's a big unit and is agile as well. Has a basketball background so gets around okay.
