At Baysie or Deni?

At Baysie or Deni?

Deni. Great for them to drive here. Had bar open and a lot of local people watching Deni’s recruits

Deni will be a top 2 team this year.

Big news out of Finley with Mark Whiley signing on.

That’s a huge get, I heard he’s not playing all the games due to travelling around.

New signing at Moama. Jordan McGregor from Shepp Bears. Has pace to burn, will cut apart the comp up and down the wing at Moama Rec Reserve. Genuine star and genuine O’Dwyer smokey. Came for the love of the club, heard he’s getting next to no cash either. Great to see and big for the mowers

 

[Tippa#22]

Based on recruits, a rough ladder prediction, anyone else done one? Top 3 a fair bit ahead I believe, Finley, deni and Cobram similar to each other. Haven’t heard much about the next 4 but think rumba and Echuca may struggle but again haven’t much in them either

Moama

Finley
Deni
Cobram

Nathalia

135 in the home and away season,, kivcked another 12 in the 2 finals games= 148 ,, he kicked 6 0f the 9 goals Jerilderie scored in the grand final loss to Deniliquin.. As a 18 year old ,, thats impressive

 

[ringo1]

Yes, I was at the Mulwala practice match this weekend just gone. They looked very strong despite the younger side. Possible contender this year.... Kyle Abikhair was very dominate, unsure whether his planning on playing for Mulwala or Yarrawonga in the O&MFL

Why don't you ask yourself where you are playing Kyle?

After a bit of advice boys, just wandering is cobram or Narooma a better ground to watch footy at. I don’t think I can get up to watch them play each other this year but want to plan a golf trip around a good game of footy at the better ground. Any suggestions?

If in your shoes olly the date I’d be organising would be the moama vs Cobram clash on the 15th of June IMO a better ground to watch footy the ground being smaller you are closer to the action good seating also ,just a better all round venue

Intriguing (frustrating) comment by an umpire to a player after the practice game between Tongala and Lockington. The player was slung tackled and concussed so will miss the next 3 weekends. The umpire said “If this was a regular home and away season I would have reported him.”
Former playing coach pointed out to the umpire the injustice of that indecision as the player who made the sling tackle will be playing the next few weeks… meanwhile the other player sits out.

Sad thing is the umpire is the only one being paid but has fallen short of his duty.

Understand the frustration boots, but it brings up a couple of interesting points .
Is more than 3 weeks going to be given to anyone who is involved in an incident which sees a player concussed from now on ?
Who’d hear the tribunal ? Not sanctioned by any league and clubs from differing regions .

Agree Roar, lots of food for thought and discussion on sites like this.
I have been contacted officially by an umpires rep to discuss this incident which was comforting in knowing there have been some learnings from this that will no doubt be discussed among umpires. I bet you if there is a similar incident in the upcoming practice matches this weekend (Lancaster vs Lockington for example) the infringing player will be sent from the ground at least!
