That was just to beat the tribunal charge

Couple of ex Bundoora teammates/coaches in lower divisions (Nippa and morecroft at Mernda, Dyson at Resa, Harris at Thomo, Mick F at Panton hill) so will be able to get cash if needed.

They’ll convince him to play VFL for a mid year draft spot at worst is my guess.

He deserves a crack w Carlton, will be a great result for him.

imo if he isn't picked up now by Carlton, given their needs, its unlikely he will go mid season. I reckon he will be picked up now. He is an AFL player, and superior to a number on Carltons list, simply never got the chance he should have at GWS and really, should be a Demon right now if the Giants didn't block his move at the end of 2024.

He looked good the other night and most importantly he had a crack. Didn't look to have an AFL physique tbh, but without a full preseason you can understand that.

Went to the Greensborough FC tonight to listen to a guest speaker representing

Outstanding by the Boro not only are they putting it together on the track they're ticking the boxes off it as well. Thanks for allowing me to sit in on it. 10/10 highly recommended and very beneficial in today's world.

A lot due to the Hyde factor back at the slime and certainly getting their act together off field - In for a big year the slime

Whats happened to the mighty West Preston, might struggle to field 2 sides.

Reservoir offering their 2s plays 400 a game off no senior experience

Both Heidelberg and Eltham are fielding 2 under 19 sides this season - A few other clubs did the same in 2025.
In my opinion both these clubs deserve to have no cost associated with their 2nd under 19 side - They gain no benefit from fielding a second side other than community service as most of these boys will go to another NFL club to play senior football next season - Fact
Credit where credit is due

Every reason why there should be a cap on the amount of teams each club can field. The extra buys might move to another club and allow that club to field a team.
