EDFL moves

[silvermagpie]

teakura paiti made the switch to Greenvale....

yes he did and played at roxy and williamstown last year.Did not do a transfer form either does that mean greenvale played a ineligible player?

 

[slamminsammy]

Yes Rabee was at the bottom of a lot of packs, but he did not get the ball out! Not much point diving on the ball and then causing a secondary ball up! Idea is to get the ball out. You need to watch Rabee against the top teams, he struggles because he does not take the first option. I have made this statement to Rabee personally a number of times, and guess what, he has agreed! Great bullocking player, but needs to move the ball faster. One of the other posters was quite correct, he did not rate a mention in the WC best players, and I did hear the WC coach tell him he needed to lift.

Obviously you haven't watched Rabee against the top teams, could I ask who was responsible for lifting WC from B Grade to A grade last season...and in doing so racked up a lazy 39 possesions, can I ask you who has won 2 individual comp medals not to mention countless club B & F's....B.O.G.'s in several Grand finals,(but then again thats only against the second best side in the grade), can I ask you who coaches tag each week...can I ask who is a gentleman and one of the most respected footballers running around in this comp...and your telling him what?? Um, would that be sour grapes from you because he left your club?? And who the F#@k are you to be dishing out advice to Champions.....Caroline!!

Please don't try and bend me over like a Keilor supporter and tell me he's a "B" grade player....just ask the forum....

At last you have you have strung together a few sensible words, but you still need to improve your vocabulary!

Now let’s address some of your points.
Everything you say about Rabee is correct. Show me were I have said or inferred anything different!

If you had read and analysed my post, two major references were made. One relating to his game on Saturday, and the other suggesting he would struggle against the top teams. If you had been at the game, you would have noticed that just about every time he got the ball, he was gang tackled. Had very few opportunities to get the ball out. If you cannot get the ball clear to your team mates, you are not effective.

He will struggle against the top team, because he will come across strong and big bodied players, with loads of experience behind them. I will mention a few, Alio from Greenvale. Lloyd and Churchill from A/Heights. Doering from Strathmore. He has already met Picioane from Keilor and lost.

You are quite correct, the opposition coaches will tag him, and in most cases he will be matched by the guys mentioned above. So unless he gets help in the midfield, he will struggle.

Now as for the advice. Again if you had watched Rabee in his last year at Keilor, he was not taking the first option. Result, either tackled and a turnover, or a secondary ball up. That is not being effective. In his first year he did take the first option and was magnificent.

The rest of your comments are inane and not worthy of a response.

.

Wasnt it stated earlier that Picioane had only 10 or so ineffective possesions??? Rabee must have had a real stinker of a game if Lance took the points!!

An opinion was put forward that Picioane had less the 10 possessions, factually, he had closer to 30!

Fresh Fish...

 

[Nemo]

What happened

I heard he didn't play last weekend so sat and watched the ones with the boys in the twos.
Apparently he was paying out on his own team mates calling them soft and telling them to have a dip. Some of the boys in the twos took offence.
He was later told his services were no longer required.

[Grim Reaper]

Fresh Fish...

Fish now stale & smelly, must be thrown out. -----Bye, Mike.

 

[Barts]

Heard a rumour that Paxman has done his knee

early reports are it may well be his last game unless he thinks about playing on next year.

 

[superselector]

With the diamond valley poised to be renamed the northern footy league how does every one feel about step 2!!! that being the eastern clubs moved there next year and the rest absorbed into the WFL im sure you cant be happy of what is GOING to happen.RIP EDFL !!!!!!!

 

[feralout]

Who did you play for slammin in the edfl? vfa?? AFL if any ot being a smart dick just asking did you ever play for d.s

 

[schimma_20]

Greenvale defeated Oak Park by 10 goals
West Coburg defeated Douttas by 5 goals

Can anyone confirm that Craigieburn defeated Abers??

 

[Divado]

Craigieburn did win by about 6 goals. 17.11 to 11.11. Good win, great win by West Coburg also. Will be an interesting year, after Strathmore and Greenvale i think there is about 6 teams that could sneak into the top 4 going on early form.

 

[caveman]

Great win by the Burgers this week. Should have won last week as well! To be 1-1 after Keilor and Doutta Stars is great. Should be a great game against Craigieburn next week.
