I think you said that in one of your last posts as well mate, GET OVER IT!!!!!!! I have seen a lot worse happen on the footy ground.
I don't think you have achieved anything unless you win the flag!!!!!!!! so maybe Lancaster and Stanhope have achieved the same, on one remembers who finishes fourth and fifth he he.
HDFL did everything they could to get them out of their comp about 10 years back so I wouldn't think that the clubs would vote to take them back. I think the KDFL would be silly to take them on just on past history.

Care to elaborate qwerty? I happened to coach the club it's last two years in the HDFL and I take the above comment personally. Anyway I'm sure you know who I am, PM me if you like so we can have a chin wag or if you're at the QEO Satdy arvo/night come say hi.
I agree there was a period of dislike but I think we'd gotten to the point where the relationship was healthy in 2008. Believe it or not I only just last week had dialogue with Trevor Arnel about all this, as well as people I remain in contact with from various HDFL clubs. For christ sake most my footballing memory of Bford is of the 1984-2008 period and how good a comp it was (and still is).
Sadly the executive of 2008 and a few key people brainwashed a bunch of naive kids and their parents into leaving, and now the similar appears to be happening.
Past history has nothing to do with the current group of people so let's not go down that path. Trust me there are plenty of HDFL (and KDFL clubs) for that matter with skeletons in closet's but it aint fair to label current players/workers with what's happened before their time.
These are two articles from down south from the past week, no doubt the next 6-8 weeks will see some form of activity from the BFNC. Please give them the chance to sell themselves on current issues they're facing ..... not stuff in the past they had little to do with.

Can't take credit for a good memory. The league has actually sent out that presentation to all clubs in the KDL.
Fair enough, I thought you musta been from Broadford.
Here's hoping the guys involved (who are good blokes) get a fair hearing and not one influenced by comments like qwerty's. That's the very least they deserve, and at the end of the day if the KDFL don't want them .... to their credit, the RDFL and its stakeholders (the clubs) have said they still want them.
Why do they need to leave that league Doona?? The league still want them, from what I've heard they've won 5 matches this year so the league is not to hard or easy for them? Why do they want to move to the KDFL?
Fair question you pose 26Red, to be honest I dont understand it (but will always support and take interest as its home). I'm not privvy to everything as the 3 years Ive got involved where I'm living in Kilmore and for 2015 I'm heading back to the Yea FC.
The guys who presented at last weeks meeting said the research etc was initiated 10-11 weeks prior which was about the time they were 1 & 5.
I honestly believe that Broadford would annihilate, or should annihilate, the clubs that are in the KDFL. An example. I played school sport against Broadford whilst at Euroa Secondary College. These two towns are pretty much of identical size, only Broadford is closer to the city. Euroa is in the GVFL and there are 4 other clubs within the same shire as Euroa who field sides in the KDFL??
Sorry Broadford, but if Euroa can compete in the GVFL then you should not be allowed in the KDFL. Further to that is you are the same size as Euroa and you are in a minor league already, and are closer to Melbourne, you should be competitive already.
Have to wonder if a move to the KDFL sought by Broadford is purely for the easy wins???

I believe broadford would be far too good for this competition!
Surely no one goes off practice game form. Last year my boys won 4 practice games but didn't win a game. How many of Murch's side now would've played in that game? I don't think this years Broadford team would've beat Merrigum, Nagambie, Stanhope, Murch (when fair dinkum) and/or Avenel.
I think the killer for Broadford will be that it extends the travelling distance fairly significantly in the league. It's a long way from Tallygaroopna to Broadford and in covering that distance you pass towns that are a part of three different leagues. The next problem is a fourteen competition where team may not play an opponent again for eighteen months. I know that is already the case but another team will further exacerbate the situation. There are players in the GVFL that absolutely despise travelling to Mansfield on a cold day in the middle of winter, could see the same thing happening here.
Watto thought that Colbinabbin and Williamstown played a cracking final, he just couldn't work out why North Albury were out there as well.Would love either Watto or Trots to give a review of the senior game especially the second half
