EDFL Premier Discussion 2025

[BlueJet]

The club was an individual, have you been living under a rock the past 5 years

Yes.. which occured largely because others sat back & allowed him ultimate control.
When you do so, you kind of waive the right to complain when it goes pear-shaped, unless you're allergic to accountability.

I mean people where called directly when he didn’t like posts on here about himself imagine if you tried to speak up a club land. You guys are delusional and if you where in a EK situation, you to would have been intimidated non vocal observers as well.

Im sure they knew the departed coach would take a few so they probably needed to appoint a coach who has a long contact list and can recruit decent level players. Did they do due diligence??

They knew the sign ons were paid in previous years so could they match em?? How do they lose EK boys like Dion Hill? He wasn’t one of Pat’s recruits.. Anyway they are in trouble..

There’s about 20 thou$and reasons how ek lost hill

When does the season start ffs? Are there any matches over Easter to fit in between easter egg hunts?

Ahh good one

If this game was a salary cap cheat contest Deer Park would win by about 150k

Could do but would claim administration error.

All clubs walking the tightrope but some clubs ( Deer Park ) actually have something to show for their spend. Glass houses here, so worry about your own club!

Interesting game at Keillor this week with Deer Park getting flogged in last weekends practice match apparently. Seniors kicked 6 goals and ressies 1. Depth could be an issue again

Maybe mercenaries don't get paid to play practice matches

Glass houses wow there is not a window that hasn’t been smashed. Hope when DP supporters go into the rooms to purchase a beer as they do not bring their own hope the 2023 premiership photo has been removed. Just sayin!

That was the week before champ. Several not available with cricket finals and unavailable for a praccy for various reasons. ( That's right a practice match!!!! ) Great hit out against Berwick last Saturday with several still missing but got on top in the second half. The only part of the comment that is correct is the ressies depth. Not exactly sure if that's on the forefront of the clubs mind atm though tbh.

Tough assignment against the benchmark this week nevertheless. Won't be the only side severally tested against Mick's Mob though as we all know.

 

[Calmdowngoldy]

Must have been a great showing against a side that only won two games in 24

You've clearly been on the receiving end at some point given your animosity towards the Lions. Dont hold a grudge fella, just a game! Some just win more often than others hey!!

So I see the EDFL have been reading my posts and now created a 18.5 premier RESERVE division where all premier 2nd 18 teams play. So they don’t play other teams ones sides from div2 mainly.

Only 2 Div1 clubs with a 2nd 18s in Hillside and Moonee Valley.

I’m not a Deer Park fan at all. Don’t know much about them. Did go and watch them against Berwick last Saturday. Deer park won by 9 points. Deer Park reserves lost by 140 points.

Just like when they wanted you to appear on the match of the day coverage?

Been in premier for one year nuffy so apart from the cheats won the same amount of flags as the other 8 teams ..I’m tipping will win won before at least 5 of those eight

Hey BJ, trust your well.
I’m no follower of Deer Park and well aware of they spend up but they do travel in numbers and always come in for plenty of beers and a chat post game including a large number of players all in uniform. They show a lot of clubs including the Keilors how it’s done. Even getting a bus out to some grounds..
At home games I only hear good reports from friends that have been unlike some clubs that are so far up themselves it’s not funny.
I couldn’t give a rats about them but credit where it’s due.

Also they aren’t in a fluent area like Keilor, Abers, Strathmore, Pascoe Vale, Greenvale, but have survived and have a lot of old players still attend games and functions. They have done better than a lot of clubs from the old FDL so I give them a bit credit..

Cheers

Sure thing & that's great.
That's a separate matter altogether though, mate.
However, crowing about premierships in your former comp to those you're now competing against, does tend to draw a resounding response of "meh".

Good luck to South this year, too.
