I have been told by a good source no back chat,no swearing and no hands in back no matter who u r u will get penalised may be the Elmore brians trust should get this across to the players. They were undiscipined when i saw them play against Heathcote sounds like they have not learned????

are rochy umps and bendigo umps doing the same rules. i heard from rochy umps that the hands in the back was not going to be done this year. they said their main concern was protecting the man over the ball and any one that makes contact with a player head on with head over the ball will be awarded a free kick against and yellow carded. has this happened to anyone yet??

I would have thought so, you would have thought they ( Rochy&Bendigo Umpires) would have got their heads together at the start of the season and talk about what they where going to really clamp down on.I will have talk with my source and mention what u wrote to me and see what he comes up with.He is pritty well on the mark most time's.And to your last part of your quote no i have not seen this happen i have only seen Bendigo umpire's this year:thumbsu:

Who ever does the recruiting for North Bendigo needs to have a good hard look at themselves...Trent Davie on $150 a game is an absolute joke! Im from his home town of Shepparton and heard this on the weekend from one of the North Bendigo boys and laughed.

i see the great roderick doak snagged a few on the weekend, i thought he was playing down back. i know he fancys himself as a forward, apparently a bit too lazy to man up down back. any thoughts?

Ventured down to training last night and noticed former Yea Premiership player Tom Butterworth running around. Doubt he would be available this season after committing to play down Apollo Bay way.

Interesting to see around a dozen players undertaking disciplinary tasks of sprints for around 15 minutes. Believe it had something to do with talking and joking through the awards ceremony on Saturday night. Good move form the coaching staff if that's the case.:thumbsu:

So what did happen to locky, nesko. Too young of a side against experienced opposition. They did have some injury problems but surely they shouldn't have lost by that much. How long is their gun rover Bongi out for?
Not that the team is too young just they havnt played enough footy together, about 10 new players that will be in and out of the 1s this year so got to give them time to gel. Injuries played a big part but its no excuse, colbo just ran over they top as they moved the ball quickly. From watching the game I thought we made them look better with poor skills and turn overs. Full credit to the colbo boys they played well. How long untill Tim Hill is back HJ? Bongy is back at work and would say he's another month away, expect him back fitter than ever.

From an outside point of view stringy, it appears there is not enough room for R. Doak to play in colbo's forward half for extended periods. what with the likes of Basil Brown, Irwin and Old lemon Face himself Silly Hill up front permanently. Just a thought.

i see former collingwood player barry rist died yesterday. i am pretty sure that he coached broadford to the 1996 flag.

i hope he was able to make it to their reunion last year.
Yeah Baz coach us in 1996 & 97. I was fortunate enough to work alongside him as runner that year and got the coaching bug from his and Finchy's influence. Pretty sure a Wallan premiership coach, also won a flag at Kilmore as well as numerous DVFL clubs.

An absolute local footy legend who's hard but fair approach was memorable. Never gave it to the kids, but rode the guns and those that dare put their hand out for a quid like ya wouldnt believe.

Yesterday's news rocked many of us in Broadford who had seen him at last years ten year reunion. Might even spend a portion of tonights training session doing what we called "Risty's Diamond" out of respect to a great man.
