EDFL Div 1 Discussion 2023

[Turbos mail]

No plays up the country was in the game against strathmore at windy hill not a final strathmore player got six weeks as well

Totally different as he was struck first whereas this incident is unprovoked.

 

[MYOB]

Im not condoning what Gloury did , however has anyone been given 8 weeks for striking in this comp ever . He was charged with striking , he hit the bloke, been going on for years, the bloke got up and played out the game . Every club has had a bloke reported for striking . Is their any chance we can just look at it for what it is .
Yes the footage is damning and looks very nasty, but the bloke got up and finished the game .
I will say it again that i dont condone it , its not on , but 8 weeks .
I know Im in for abuse and to be called out on this point but Im only looking at penalties given out over the years
Maybe the EDFL will continue to rule with this new iron fist !!!!
Please comment if your club has never had a player reported for striking

I have it on good authority that he actually told team mates before the game that he was going to take someone out.

He deserves every week he got.

Has the WC bloke been sighted yet for kicking the DP Captain ?. I saw it live and it was a blatant kick. Did anyone else see it and where can a replay of the match be found and I will try and pinpoint the incident.

Anyway, Deer Park know how to win flags and they know how to celebrate with a massive turn out at headquarters Saturday night. What a wonderful inclusive atmosphere it was with players, families and supporters all enjoying one anothers company. The players inviting all supporters into the huddle for the team song in the Windy Hill rooms is not something that happens often btw. Tom Mundy is a gun footballer & great human.
What have West Coburg been upto?.

Hey mate, can watch it on Cluch TV but go though the AFL link - Essendon District Football League as it’s free. Don’t go straight to Essendon District Football League as you can’t get in.

Talking about Deer Park FC it was great to see they had an open training on Thursday and a free bbq for the supporters leading up to the GF. Great stuff. Well it was Halal bbq

As compared to their usual closed sessions ?

Both were putrid acts (amongst a number of others), either way it's just a shame that these incidents continue to occur.
For all of the good work clubs, coaches, volunteers etc put in - it takes one of these acts to undo a lot of good will & it will prevent some people playing.

I was replying to someone who asked has anyone been give eight weeks suspension before. I wasn’t implying that that incident was worse than the one on Saturday which it wasn’t

 

[Aucklander]

Playing on a suspended sentence from what I hear. Not a lot of sympathy here.

Damage control

 

[StormRider]

It’s just lucky the DP players are tough and both got up. Also let’s keep in mind both were unprovoked and could be classified as king hits well the second one is definitely a king hit, and it’s been all over social media platforms so it’s not a great advertisement for the EDFL let alone West Coburg. I think it’s a fair suspension.

I’ve just watched it again and up till that incident I’m not sure WC player actually had a possession.

Correct not a possession and looked very slow.

News coming out of WC is they have no money and if a fine comes their way no money in kitty to pay.

Not going to help them get a few key players that they need to challenge next year.

Also hearing players were rested towards end of season to avoid match payments and few boys not happy.

They are imploding.

The clubs dont need any money , they just ask the EDFL to pay it and they become unfinancial like 7 other clubs within the competition

 

[ROOS77]

Going to be good watching Majak Daw roaming around the forward line with Goater, Smart, Elton, Aleksovski,Spiros, Dorgan next year.

Good luck with that

It’s more the way they promote it and put on a free bbq to attract supporters, kids and more importantly the community. That’s my point.

Oh my that’s not great.

As much as it’s not acceptable to be doing this on field it’s also the supporters getting involved and manhandling players with a couple actually appear to hit players. Then what the hell is that moron in the light mustard tee shirt doing pointing at players. Is he spitting at them? It’s disgusting behaviour more so when the fight started by WC and their supporters carrying on like victims. WHY! I don’t get it..Big and tough guys behind a fence..
It’s a reason the other major leagues attract more ex AFL than the EDFL.

 

[Sth Melb Hellas]

Good luck with that

Do you think he will turn up to all training sessions and meet his other club obligations?

Probably took offence to the big DP defender that spat into the crowd first.

Bloke in the mustard shirt was very keen to tell people what he was going to do to them but made very sure he wasn’t within reach of anyone. Typical coward.
The supporter pouring beer and dropping the can on a players head is just crap, and assume that’s why Quick reacts like me does. But spitting is no good.
Not one supporter threw a punch Turbo as hard as you are trying to create something.
Considering how close to the fence it was and the low dog swinging hay makes it could have been so much worse. Thankfully the no one ran on the ground like the HS ex Skipper

Chances of a player exodus?

Doubt they'll be challenging for a premiership for some time.

West Coburg are not a Premier Division club at all. Most premier division clubs will be happy they don't have to play at the Shore Reserve Soccer pitch for quite some time.

please running on the ground? Imagine if committee members entered the ground and started attacking players?

He should be grateful it was only 8 weeks.

 

[ROOTA#6]

Lucky he’s not facing assault charges

 

[edflinsider112]

Have on good word that West Coburg SUPERSTAR Bowkett is weighing up his future, with St Mary’s and Vermont throwing some large figures at him. Also a potential return to Shore Reserve for Danko Bzenic. Watch this space

Are you kidding me with this.

You see a spectator pulling a player and hitting him in the back a few times. It’s no wonder the DP player fired back.

Well there was a full fence in between and hitting players or even touching them is disgusting. If there wasn’t a fence they would have come onto the oval and started a riot. The one you’re referring to was 3 qrt time and didn’t touch any players. If you think that was worse you’re delusional.

Being labelled delusional by Turbo, gee whiz

I honestly have no idea what you are rambling on about now but I was only talking about the Gloury incident and aftermath, which I watched a lot in slow mo.
Am I not seeing the same footage ?

- Gloury is a dog, shouldn’t be allowed on a field again. Period.

- The first spectator I was referring to was the imbecile throwing beer then dropping it on the DP players face. Did not see a supporter throw a punch, can anyone other than Turbo confirm this happened ?

- The second, “mustard shirt” seems to get aggravated after what looks like Quick spits at the beer can idiot, mustard then charges along the fence yelling empty threats at players. I was calling HIM a typical coward.
Quick spitting (if he did) is poor, but in the street Quick would fold the peanut in half.

- What Martini did to DP captain was equally cowardly and could have caused damage. He should be sighted and suspended which I’m sure he will be.

It’s ironic how hard you are going at WC considering you’ve played the victim card all year for Hillside’s involvement in the other media storm this season.

Turbo turning a blind eye to the actions of his chosen clubs or players and gnashing his teeth over others?
I don't believe it!
