heard off one of kerangs better players who is in the know at the kerang that Luke has showed alot of intrest in going into kerang next year. he would be a top player at kerang and very hard for quamby to replace:thumbsu:
He will be living in Swan Hill and won't set foot near Kerang. Senior captain at Quamby.

Yeah certainly be very hard to repleace! I heard along the grape vine that he would be heading out to Nyah due to having family that way or something? Could be wrong, but haven't heard it from the man himself, and obviously Quamby have offered him the captaincy, hence more $$$ so he would be mad to leave! Quamby will be looking at heavily recruiting, were there abouts last season but could be rite up there next year!
 
You would think that with the drought the way it is, that most clubs will need to pay players less money next year. Players can't expect to keep putting their hand out if there is no money coming in! Many locals have played for nothing for years, so recruits should start helping out their clubs a bit.

The amount that players get paid now has reached ridiculous levels, what does a club really get in return for the amount they pay someone. Lets be honest, it's not the AFL, so it doesn't bring in extra sponsorship or huge prizemoney, what's the big incentive?

Luke was captain for the latter games of 07. What makes you think Quamby let alone anyone else will be in a position to recruit heavily? It hasn't rained for 10 years. Recruiting will be minimal for most clubs one would think. Clubs whom invest wisely will come out on top. Agree with Marvel,don't think recruits will be offered the same as in the past, clubs just can't afford it anymore.

Recruiting really comes down to doing the best with what you have... If you have a successful side that has good facilities and a good club atmosphere then if you pick the right recruits then there shouldnt be the need for the big dollars as the other things will help get them over the line. Ultima this year may lose a couple as talks of a few of them going travelling, Nathen Boyd and Jarrod Rodgers i think, maybe Fingers Condely. Cant see big Stewie Broussard travelling for another year. Also, heard talks of the Mahons boys going back into town and the Ayars boys going further out of town to Woomelang? Will Zac Boxall hit it out again this year at Ultima?
 
Re: Golden R FL

Can anyone tell me who is chasing who or of any rumours on what players are going where? What types of players clubs need? What type of players would clubs need to pick up to?
 
Re: Golden R FL

Any progress on coaching appointments? Ultima?, Wandella?, Moulamein?, Hay? Wakool?. I understand Macorna, Murrabit, Nullawil and quambatook are as per 07.
 
Re: Golden R FL

Its probably been said before, but is Metro taking the reins at tigerland?:confused:

No, will be at the club simply in a playing compacity, may do some junior development work. Khane Mason is still coach and Arron ***** is still a/c.

The rumour about Garth Russell taking the head job at Hay is starting to grow legs. Would be a good get for Hay and you would think he may take some guys up there with him.

Considering where Quamby finished on the ladder last year September, a couple of key recruits (ie heavy) may just see them slip into the top 4

Yes similar to a couple of other clubs, just a couple of key players short of being a contender. Beat both Murrabit and Nully in home and away but lacked consistency to challenge for a top 4 finish.

no offence intend towards quamby but they also ways seem to be "looking like having a big year". for the past couple of years they always pick up a few players who are ment to be guns but they still seem to be a bit off the mark.

Agree there floody, but in their defence the hype that you speak of is generated from outside the club not internally
 
Congrats too the Murrabit boys...too good. But can any of the Murrabit boys fill us in on why Kingers came to the Kerang Hotel where the Nully ressies boys were after handing his jumper and premiership medal back to the Murrabit boys at the Royal?? Wally Grout or tee-r-otter??

i hear nully r chasing birchip player, facts. blokes like cliff ryan and shan coffey. Must have a fair bit of room in the salary cap. Can you verify these rumours?
 
Just wondering if anybody can tell me how Ben Taylor, from Macorna goes. Apparently played there a couple of years ago, but I can't seem to remember him. Think he might have played at Echuca last year.
 
Messenger: I heard from a source at the Tigers, that the Whelan brothers may be interested in playing with fromer Koondrook team mate, Khane Mason. Would be a very good recruiting coup for the Yellow and Black. Could they also lure Laursen?? Couple this with the players who have committed to the Tigers for '08. It is looking bright for Macorna.

I heard this rumour myself but I don't know much not as heavily involved with the recruiting as I have been in the past. Would be a massive get if the 2 Whelan's did come out, they are exactly what is needed out at tigerland some midfielders with a bit of polish. Ice is good mates with Metro and both Whelan boys respect Mason very highly. Pretty sure Laursen has said he is returning to the Raiders. I think it all sounds a long way off at this stage though so I won't be holding my breath.

I also heard that Lee Pollock could be on his way to Wakool as coach, and the Wiz and his other brother will also be out there. Having said that I also heard that the Pollocks were heading to Miti in the LVFL. I guess we will see who the highest bidder is in a few weeks. You would think clubs would want there coaches stitched up very soon so they can attack the recruiting pretty strong.
 
So what club in the GRFL will Cousins be lining up for next year??? Wakool should have a bit of room now that the melbourne blokes are pulling the pin... he'd fit in well with the crew up there no doubt...

the rumour going around is that Cousins will line up for the new franchise in the grfl, the western ice. Apparently they have had a real crack at some players especially gardiners who can pull chicks but dont act like wankerrs. The new club are convincd that these players are available and will be in a position to smack other teams on the scoreboard if thy can keep there heads!:thumbsu:
