Kyabram DFL discussion 2023

[Thunder1]

Late to the party, what was their reasoning they couldn’t stay in outer east?

Nickedoff they had been playing in division 2 (AFLOE have premier, Div 1 and Div 2)
With clubs leaving they have just gone with 2 divisions, so the travel factor became even greater (Broadford to Berwick)
AFLOE let them down big time by promising a Northern division which never eventuated

 

[MortlockWatcher]

I'd say travel, but they should be in the riddell league, I'd think, unless they can't compete

Agreed. Riddell would be the best option. Allegedly their main reason for leaving was the exorbitant fees but that was in the AFL Goldfields era and that issue has since been eradicated and the competition is better than it was when they left.

Pretty sad day for grassroots footy, broady is a growing town, must be close to 6k living there, they couldn't stay in the outer east, is this going to be the start of more of this in country Vic

Unfortunately Trent I think so! IMO this is exactly what the AFL want, club's to fall out here & there until they have the number they want!

My reason for thinking this is because isn't it weird that with the amount of clubs that have gone into recess over the last 10yrs what have we heard about it? How many investigations or enquires have the AFL done?? ZERO that I've heard or seen? Why?? Because the only fault they would find is their own & hey that can't be made public?

Usually a very successful organisation (which the AFL is) would run certain process or procedure everytime they have a loss of production or failed business venture? Well that's what each & every metro & country grassroot club is to the AFL? It's what keeps their organisation running is it not? But why do we not see the results of any investigations or enquires because there is NONE! Why? Because at this stage the "Head Organisation" (AFL) see their business as to over populated & don't care if a few "fall away" here or there!

This is just my opinion, but surely if the AFL cared for the clubs, the towns & the people they'd be doing alot more to keep these communities alive & involved..... ‍♂

That’s bullshit , Outer East did everything to support them and assist them find a new home .
With over 20 players opting to , or advising they were going to join KDFNL clubs , meant the club was as going to struggle for player numbers .

I see that KDLs head honcho now is Peter Cordy who has taken over from Kerrins Cords senior coached Undera a few year back as well as coaching quite a bit of junior footy Before that umpired a lot of footy in the GVFUA I know Pete really well and I believe he will be passionate and give it his best shot

Nice Draw Smooth

Nice Draw Smooth

Mate I personally don't know how you think it's a nice draw? We play everyone once just like you's & everyone else does? The 3 teams we play twice in 2024 we didn't beat in 2023 & the current draw also has us playing Murch twice both at Murch too I might add? So again feel free to tell me how you think our draw is any better then your's or anyone else's?

 

[swoopin pie]

Nice Draw Smooth

Tally could be 6 zip by rd 6 he’d be pleased with the early part of the draw
Except for Rd 10 and Rd 14 where they play Much at Murch ??????

Gday fellas. Does anyone on here no the rulings on eligibility for junior footy. The yung fella was told he wasn’t fit enough for a GV club and don’t think he has any talent to play reserves footy just yet he turns 20 next season so wondering if he could apply as double over-age.
An answer would be best. Thankyou bigfooty

Ran into Nagambie VP yesterday and he said on top of Dalton missing next year they have also lost this year’s best and fairest winner Tom Barnes recently breaking his leg in a skiing accident

Bottom aged kids in the KDFNL would be 14 turning 15 next year . To fill thirds numbers some ( many ?) clubs may have kids even younger than that .
The prospect of 13-14 year old kids playing against a 20 year old man would be concerning for most I’d have thought .

19 will be the maximum age. Find a club where he has friends or may enjoy playing and most will appreciate another number in the reserves. Maybe a club mid to bottom table that may have struggled for numbers recently, but that will be many clubs… even GV.

I believe Rushy have signed a Ruckman/CHF from the Ammos

Will they get 2 teams?

Will they get 2 teams?

They seem to be pretty confident in doing so. The quality might not be there, but if they are fielding two sides consistently then that will be a great effort in itself.
