EDFL Premier Div 2019

[Newatthis]

Anyone prepared to say who the biggest off-season signing is or do we have to wait until clearances are up?

Having read the interview with Hardingham, it will be interesting to see what he can do at EDS that he couldn't do at Pacco. What people he can attract to the club and what he can do with a youngish team. My guess is 5th or 6th.
Since no other clubs have been publicly saying who has left or recruited it's a bit hard to give a reasoned response.

Surely that and the appointment of his brother as senior coach? Spoke very highly of MPFC as the best club he had ever played at during speech at EDFL Presentation night from what I recall on Facebook live feed.

I wasn't questioning that point. He has had two consistent years and I see that he thinks last season was better than this one.

With Martiniello and Linton gone, who else are packing their bags? And why? New coach? Can anyone confirm if Linton played at Strathmore as a junior? Any rumours that he may be heading back that way or out of the league.

 

[the horse whisper]

Archer off to Pascoe vale. Another one from WC to Pacco.
Also another 4 pointer minimum. I hope the coaching and recruiting staff tallying up their points for next season. At last count they have brought in players to the value of 20 points.

There will be a few pot the ex AFL bloke (not saying you are NAT) but surely that isn't why these guys have left MP. I would have thought a few might be bought in by the new coaches experience?

With Hardingham, Hansen and Veszpremi gone they would have some points space I would have thought? Those three alone would have been close to 15 points?

True mate they have room as majority of players are staying, however Veszpremi was a 2 point player in 2018.

I’ve been trying hard to keep away but can I just add this. If a player from a relegated side wants to stay and play in the same division then why should they cop an extra point on their PPV. Shouldn’t we be encouraging players to play the best standard of footy they can!! Just Another thing they didn’t consider. It’s no wonder people just laugh at this system and the whole process.. Seroiusly do the AFL Vic care about grassroots footy???

They don’t attract the extra point Turbo

4th club in 4 years this bloke is a mercenary

Although I don't entirely disagree with this comment it's good to see someone opt to play at the highest level rather than the other way round for once.

Paccoe building a solid list, plenty of depth. Could 2019 finally be the year?

Playing at the highest level or playing where he gets paid more. Get off your bong.

One of the concerns in local football is that too many players have no idea about loyalty - Archer was probably West Coburg’s highest paid player and when you look through his stats his season was slightly better than average yet he seems to take no responsibility and just looks after himself . It must be insulting to West Coburg that he states on the pacco website how enjoyed his time at West blah blah blah

Thanks Turbo didn't realise Patty was only a 2 pointer. Still 13 points in those three though!
Archer will be 4 points if 3 clubs in 3 years anyway wouldn't he - only saw him once and best description from me would be a bit of a workhorse? Should add something to Pacco but certainly not in the class of Watson / Galea etc. from what I saw?
Not sure what they have added will replace what they have lost yet at Pacco with Patty, Hardingham, Hansen, Harris, Anderson, Bunn, B.Ross all reportedly on the move and maybe a couple more that I'm not aware of?
In saying that certainly like the way Digby's targeting more of the mid to late 20s age group.

 

[red devils 18]

You'd hope Pacco aren't paying him much as he didn't exactly garner rave reviews at either Heidelberg or West Coburg.
7 clubs in 7 years isn't a great look either.

Ask rowville about him

Money talks! Deer Park in a league of there own. Damien Cavka signed there. If our clubs are trying to play by the rules. Question mark over some clubs “salary”.
How can a club like Deer Park winning 5 in a row add Cavka.
Due to being injury prone could clubs be offering maximum 9-10 game contracts? I would if I was a footy manager.

They have won 6 flags in a row and have also added Daniel Harris to the mix as well.

Deer Parks recruiting is outstanding
