Re: Piccola District football league

At the minute Shepp East ground is in full bloom green grass all over, looking good.
Sounds a bit better than when they hosted the semi final last year. The league nearly pulled that final from them I hear. Guys going out but in the end too many people to notify if it had to be changed.

On the subject, I do not beleive that any PDFL senior team should get a home final. Katandra had one in 2005 and Shepp East had one in 2006. If the senior side is in it then it should not be at their home. And what about the crap last year Tungamah V Katandra at Blighty. Does that make sense to anyone? What about Tungamah V Katandra at Katamatite??? More sense. Should look at the two senior teams and final a ground smack in the middle I say. Put every clubs ground on standby and go from there.

But the teams on the extremities (like Berrigan and Tungamah) might struggle to host one if it were like that. Maybe just a bit of common sense in the ground selections!

Re: Piccola District football league

At the moment Katunga does not have the Granny, any sugestions on who should host it?
Who has the right stuff (rooms that dont share a shower or that are not a tin shed, Netball courts, Parking etc) to host them?
Do you think that the PDFL will stick to there guns and not give it back to them with this upcomming appeal?

had a falling out with alot of people in town, had the bakery in town and it all went to S@#t, upset a few people. Alot of people love him for his skill but not for other things. a bit of a waste really. Hopefully he goes a little better out at Jerilderie, heard a wisper that he signed for 3 years out there but that's a huge call, have heard some people trying to guess how long he will last. good luck to him.

Magic, surely if he has upset a few people in town the mob down the road would have heard about it and stay clear???? I know he can play when he wants to but a 3 year signing is a big call for a bloke that I hear struggles to train 1 night a week.

I believe that the grounds for the finals should be set in concrete as soon as possible. Also the major finals should be played on the grounds with the best facilities no matter what... Whether the team hosting is playing or not

The minor finals should be shared around between the other clubs each year so that everyone can get a grab of some finals action.

Its just the luck of the draw, if teams have to travel so be it. As the better team will always win.

I think common sense should come into it, wait and see who is playing then decide where they play - simple as that!

Agree with you there, the games should be played on the best grounds with the best facilities as that is what the finals is all about. What they could maybe do is get different sides to host the games but keep the games at the best grounds. Interesting to hear today that Travis Brand from Wunghnu was offered $400 a game to play for Berrigan and would not have to train. Must be spending some money out at Berrigan way this year.:confused:

Mercs can you ask Brand who he has been dealing with as I'm yet to here this name mentioned. $400 is a lot of money, and not the kind of funds we give out, especially to players that we have not even heard of! Training is a must for any Berrigan recruit, so I would ask him if he was trying to increase his profile.

Well i would answer all Q. honestly. im not sure that all the Q. Shepp East asked you, you answered them honestly because if you did i dont think they would have wasted there time and money on you. but it will all come out during the coming season. hope for shepp east sake they put in your contract a half yearly review!

Well thats how it should be, no train no game or no cash. Yes you re correct $400 is alot of money per game whether they were mucking around with numbers, I dont no but for the record Travis Brand said no to the offer anyway and is staying at Wunghnu.
