NFNL Div 2 discussion 2023

[NFNL Member]

That's not really too smart recruiting getting too many old guys. My question is are they trying to get to div 1 to early and not really build a div1 squad with depth,If south do by chance snag a premiership next year then I bet most if not all the old boys will go as they won't want to commit to what it takes to stay in div one .

i see Whittlesea doing this exact same thing.
Again!

Recruiting old guys
Or winning and going straight back up to Division 1.
Coen is a good pick up and have retain most of their list, not sure Murphy has re-signed though which will be a big loss though Hobbs is a good replacement

i think they will be the side to beat in Div 2, what happens if they do win it and go back up to Div 1?
Im saying they are in the same boat as Sth Morang, i agree with the previous message, do they have a plan beyond winning Div 2?
Or do all the experienced players hang up the boots and you are back to being a Div 1 easy beat, get relegated......Groundhog Day
Im talking Whittlesea here not Morang as they havent been in this position before.

Agree, I would've told Hobbs and Coen they are not welcome and to look elsewhere. They'll be terrible role models for the young group they already have

Van Zwienen brothers to morang official now, putting together a handy list

Their list seems young to me? Can’t see the issue.

Have they found a money tree?

Wouldn’t be the first to go for broke, and end up broke.

no one mentioned role models

you need to crawl before you walk .and most old legs don't want to do the hard yards to be a div one player anymore

 

[quadzilla4x4]

Any news on this Watsonia and thomo connection? Binnak park turning into a feeder ground for the Bears

 

[choccyNippysERRRR]

South Morang may just put a whole new 22 out there round 1 with all these signings. Just got word from a very good source at the club that Shem Joseph is a lock and is on serious coin.

As expected i thought they would get the Shem deal over the line. No surprises there about his contract , very talented and has an X factor you will not see much in local footy. Great pick up!

They could finish above a Lower, NP, Watsonia, Thomastown (depends who goes), Panton Hill.

Big Kangaroo i think a lot thought they same about Sth Morang last year and they played finals
Laurimar will be fine, good depth in 2’s and 19’s.
Young core group who are looking forward to challenge of playing more competitive footy each week
If league has any brains first round should be
Diamond Creek vs Panton Hill
Thomastown vs Sth Morang
St Marys vs Watsonia
Northcote Park vs Lower Plenty
Laurimar vs Whittlesea

 

[Denny Crane]

Hahaha, this made me laugh.

Not that many, those leaving have already found clubs

 

[NorthernBastard]

Northcote apparently appointing Anthony Palmer from Heidelberg as its coach. Is this linked to the Matt Smith rumours?

Had the good mail on this occasion

 

[lennyhayes777]

Ben young from Bundoora signed at st Mary’s.. good pick up

 

[10571z]

Gee another gone from Bundoora

 

[NFNL Member]

Gee another gone from Bundoora

Swoopingtime you seem to know a bit about the new Bundoora coach, what’s the chances of him seeing out the season after this mass exodus??
Is he back from his holiday does anyone know?
