Massive changes in C grade. It Seems there are a number of players on the move at all clubs. St Bedes are losing a couple as their top end talent chase higher honours.

Marcellin being smashed again.

Just lost coach and Howe off to Ivanhoe (NFNL).

Marcellin were just starting to get something going there at the end of the last season. They just can't compete with the paying teams in the NFNL in their area.
 
Very interesting 2026 ahead in Prem C…. Might be a very good year to be coming up given some key departures at St Bedes, Marcelin, Pegs and Glen eira… if Ormond and Peninsula retain and add a couple might be very competitive.

Would think Parkdale are the standout side alongside Fitzroy coming down, have Hampton retained after a tough 2025 or lost a few?
 
VAFA Teams in the north can't compete with the money paid in the NFNL. Hence Old Paradians have moved from the VAFA to the Northern Football Netball League to try and stop the stream of juniors from leaving. Marcellin have the same problem. There is no way to stop it. The drain of talent to paying leagues is bad enough in the south but in the north, it is even worse.

We are just holding on.

Ormond will be pushing for finals with our list and under 19s. As Max said, some of those other teams are hanging on by their fingernails. Still, you can't stop players if they want to play at a higher level or go for money. Infact, you should wish them good luck.

Hampton Rovers will be interesting. It was a very tough season in Prem B and a lot of players will not want to go down and seemingly backwards.

GE have now lost 3 senior wagga boys… with 2-3 young guns potentially on the move for $$$ too. Sad to see, was looking forward to their rivalry with Ormond and to see how they improved on this year
 
Glen Eira will be in big trouble. No coach, no 19s and losing a few. Sounds like teams getting picked apart for 2026.

Not what I have been told. 2 of the blokes that left have chased coin, the other to play with his mates in the country. I was told that none of those three are in the top 10 at the club, the top 10 have all recommitted. I also got told that the new players coming in are better than what has left.

As someone well respected and in the know at the Monders, do you have any insight into Coach Kyle's pre-season program?

I can assure you that this is not the case… at least 2 of the 3 finished top 10 in BnF and can confirm that 3 young guns are scouting out other clubs, not confirmed to be leaving yet though and could definitely still stay…

I can't think another example on BigFooty of one single club living rent free in another clubs head like Glen Eira lives in Ormond's.

Here is what I have been told...

the names of 3 Wagga boys that are leaving:-

Will not feature in Prem C TOTY discussions.
Wouldn't be known by any other Prem C coach.
Would be lucky to be known by anyone on here, Nepotism included and he is a bot.
Two of them have been at the club for a minute and a half, now decided to chase coin.
Did not finish Top 10 in the B&F.

Feel free to name the names, nobody will have heard of them.

No other players are leaving, the Top 10 have recommitted.

It starts on the 17th of November at 6pm, less than three weeks away. The pre-Christmas routine is investing in running, strength and conditioning, team bonding and game plan. Kyle just got coach in the team of the year so he must be doing something right.

Ok… not here to start arguments and can assure you I don’t have any alignment or hatred toward any club. Was just stating a fact about what I have been told/heard.
