EDFL moves

Ross Funcke What can you tell me about this Frazier kid? How did he go at Jacana?

Thanks!

His no kid probably 32, CHB, FB, is a member of jacana team of century. Very tough, reliable and unpredictable. We will see round 1 where he is, but my source is pretty good. This is the third club he has signed with according 2 this thread

Ahhhh we have a mix up mate. I am talking about an 18 year old who is about 6ft 4 and played in the ruck for Jacana.

 

[Allears]

What is goin on with all these rumours, know 4 a dead set fact he has not signed on anywhere. But is leaning 2wards westmeadows with the paul houstan link

Bill, l can tell you know he has signed at the west coburg football club last night after training.

Allears there is a mix up mate. He is talking about a 32 year old. I take it you are talking about the 18 year old ruckman?

Correct BT.

ahhh, that would be feris. was on cannons list last year. Big lose 4 us, but thought he would struggle 2 get a game at west coburg. Has only been playin footy 4 2 years, skills need work. But good kid always has a dip. We were coutin on him 2 bring down a couple of his mates.

the vfl system is not a good one but the experience you get the fitness is above any local league plus you train on and play on better grounds so after a few years in my belief you go back to local clubs a better player so tell me did you play seniors or were you one of the bitches who always complained about how afl players were trated better most of them blokes i played with had a very high opinon of themselves but it seemed no one else did and before you ask i played vfl for 3 seasons i managed about 35 senior games at 2 different clubs who both were affiliated with afl clubs and from what i remember ash craig was a handy player with coburg and also to say its not that good i remember lining up in a reserves game with dave weston rabee haoucher alex totora mark budge anthony aloi damien lang dennis bicer richard and tim little steve vernon not bad for a vfl reserves team all dominate whereever they play

That is a pretty accurate and good call mate. All good examples. There is a bloke Abers have got back from Coburg Al Faraj who will be a lot better player. Also, Condon from S'more came back a better player and you could see how well drilled Maggiorie was.

Yeah fair call about the vfl, with the players strathmore have picked up Tim Condon will struggle to get a game this year there.
Considering he is run with player he still might get a game tho.

He's an ex W.Cob boy. Big recruit Frazier if it true. I heard he was linked to Westy, but you guys seem to know what you are saying.
Spoke with Rabee before and he is pumped for a big year. What a player he is when going.

 

[Deefer4]

Good call. It will be very close between Avondale - Doutta's - Keilor and Abers for the other two (especially if they improve and recruit an on-baller which they need).
Keilor Park have a fair few on their list and could suprise.
I know Jets have lost Garbs and Tate. I think if they keep Mclellan and Bloomfield they will be up there behind Strthmore and if not then there probably closer to the other 4.
Buttigieg to the Hts is a great recruit. They are quietly confident down Canning St. Meecham fit will be great for them.

Bloomfield has signed at Port Melb. Surprised you did not know that Matt.
Buttergieg will not be at A/Heights in 2006, will still be with Keilor.

Still got to get a clearance! Even though the transfer system is in place, other issues to be resolved!

Port Melbourne will be the worse VFL club to go to now. no alligment with a AFL club they will get there arse kicked. Bloomfield will back at greenvale, its a matter of time

You could be right, but once they sign the contract, they are stuck there for 12 months. Maybe next year.

I knew he had trained there at Port Melb and as playing, but had heard was keen to also play with Jets occasionally and likely finals.
Wouldn't suprise to see him back if things dont work out to plan.
Does anybody know Jets pickup's other than Anth Aloi and Chris Smith???

 

[harsh. but fair]

What sort of season did Clint Runnalls have at Strathmore last year?
Also, Mark Worthington from Wang Rovers has signed at Aberfeldie.
Handy half-forward who is also playing district cricket somewhere at the moment.

Can he be released from his VFL contract or loaned back to Greenvale if he fail to get a game for Port Melbourne Reserves

Obviously there is a lack of understanding of the contract system with the VFL. Once they sign the contract, they are bound to the club for the season. Can come back and play with the local club if they are not selected in the 1's or 2's. They get released for the week. Port, at this point, see Bloomfield as a 1's player. On that basis not likely to be released! Not likely that he will be allowed to pick when he wants to play for Port or Greenvale. If he does not cut the mustard, different story, he could be back periodically. Will reinforce again, once the ink is on the paper, first and only obligation is to the VFL club.

See my other post back to Matt on the contract system. But the whole theme on Bloomfield puzzles me. Rated a "gun" in the EDFL, some people have suggested he would "walk" into a VFL team and even some talk about him getting on a rookie list. Why now this hesitation about his prospects of playing 1's at Port? I have not seen him play that often, so will not judge his overall ability, but with the accolades others have given him, thought he would play 1's or at worst be a regular 2's player. Why the doubt?

Where can we find all the details of this new contract system

District cricket somewhere??

Footscray-Edgewater ... has even managed a few first grade games ... not a huge cricket fan harsh, but fair??

Matty just to clear things up West Coburg has not signed Frazier but we have signed a kid from Jacana called Feris. HAs only been playing footy for 2 years but was on the calder cannons list. He is a 6ft 4 18 year old who will be very handy for us.

You are exactly right deefer but we are confident that they will be resolved shortly!

Heard worthington was a chance to maybe play at Mooroopna in the GV with his good mate Karl Norman.

Worthington played 10 senior games for the rovers in 2005 for 5 goals and two club B & F votes. Also played 3 reserve games for 2 goals.

Buttergieg definitely staying at keilor

I broke my contract when i was in the VFL system, i quit the club at about round 5 but they never released me. I was playing on Permit with a bloke who is now at Port Melbourne (Adam Cosham) up the bush for the rest of the season.

I never got released and was forced to train like the rest of the blokes and had to play if they wanted me to. I kicked up a huge stink and only ended up playing a couple more games after i quit, the system is rorted rthe VFL clubs just want kids there aas depth nothing else.

And all this talk about how good Bloomfield is, is making me sick.....

cheers
