Well don't stop at Div 2, how about starting a thread for all the remaining Divisions for next year.
And while you are at, it how about updating the Forum name to the Eastern Football Netball League.

If changes like this need to be made, just bring them to me in the mod’s board and I will take care of them. They can get lost if they are floating around other threads.

Welcome, East Burwood.

 

[Tackle Bag]

Oakleigh applying to join this division. Seems a strange one.

If they are voted in they will struggle. Div 3 would be a better fit in terms of being competitive.

East Burwood V Knox for Round 1. Been a long time between drinks and looking forward to the first game.

Opening Round. Who are your tips? I have no idea.

Jeez Division 2, one of those ones that is very hard to pick. On paper South Belgrave should walk to the premiership with a ridiculous haul of recruits. Footy isn't played on paper however.

Heathmont, The Basin, Ringwood and Templestowe will be up there battling it out for finals.

Just off last year and without major recruiting you'd expect Knox, Mulgrave, Oakleigh District and East Burwood to be the bottom four.

Boronia I'm not sure, somewhere in the middle.

But nothing is surer than at least one team surprising and being better or worse than expected. Throw in COVID which will produce some weird results at times you'd think.

 

[eflreceiver]

I am having a guess. My winners for Round 1 are Ringwood, South Belgrave, Templestowe, Boronia, and hoping it's the Rams over Knox.

The Rams win their first game in Div 2. Been a long time since the Rams have won in Division 2. 8 new players. A tough game next week. Footy's back.

Looks like 5/5, not a bad guess!

Is it true Mullinger-McHugh (Heathmont recruit ex Western Bulldogs) did his ACL last week in a drunken mishap?

That's some shocking luck if so

Yes he did. At a wedding

Watched a bit of OD vs Templestowe match footage... bloody hell time for some clash jumpers, you'd think the league might have thought of that when putting a new club in.

 

[eflreceiver]

This week my guess tips are, Heathmont, Ringwood, South Belgrave, Templestowe and Boronia. I will call the captain obvious Grand Final early, Templestowe/South Belgrave.

 

[CliffMcTainshaw]

Very interesting at this stage, EB reserves won comfortably and the seniors are ahead by 3 goals. Fingers crossed for the rest of the game.

 

[CliffMcTainshaw]

8 goals ahead. Go Rams.

Keep the lid on Cliffy, remember the Rams aren't worthy of being in Division 2. The experts say we are just the best of the cellar dwellers.

Final Score Rams 15.10 Dockers 6.7, Cloke did his Hammy.

 

[CliffMcTainshaw]

57 point win. That's a great reply to everyone who criticised the club playing in Div 21.

Edited because of my tubby finger.

Can't wait to see it when Wills, Grenda, Neate and Gould are back. Mulgrave next at home.

Grenda and Neate have retired I think. Undies and Leigh Brown are to come back in as well.
