Give us the run down from last night fellas, who won what, team of the year, rookie etc etc???
It's next Monday night Doon. Don't worry, Matt Nicholls has it covered
Also everyone should get a copy of The Free Press this week. It has all your R18 details, finals previews, Bowen Medal preview, Ryan Medal preview, My Team of the Year, The Rookie of the Year rundown and plenty more! It will be circulated at Bowen Medal night, but for those of you who aren't going or can't wait that long, you can get copies in Riddells Creek, Romsey, Lancefield, Wallan, Monegeetta, Darraweit Guim and Kilmore.

Geez I hope the mighty Broady Roos gets some space, first time ever all 7 teams will contest finals, not to mention our B & F count and the big clash with Heathcote on Sunday![]()

Doona, where is this game being played? I could be chance to get down there to see what should be a cracking game.
Jose is value and it does not look like he is in the market. From results, he has had a great second half to the year. Will the team of the year heavily be filled with the boys from Riddel. It will no doubt feature at least a quarter of the players . Any thoughts?

A nice team there IMS. But five players you mentioned won't be getting a run. Romsey coaches didn't turn up to the meeting apparantly, so Kairns is the only one that got a run from the Redbacks. Hardwick didn't make it, but was stiff, and my sources say Mick Allen didn't get named on the ground. Instead Jeremy Jose was named in a forward pocket!!
After doing some serious digging i believe the incident you are speaking of involved a woodend player leaving the ground & the Romseys 2s coach who allegedly dropped woodend player. Believe romsey has already taken action against coach so hopefully that is the end of the matter. We dont need people like this involved in our league, particularly in an official role. I know the 2 clubs have had a good relationship for a number of years now & would be a shame if that was soured after this incident. Woody can you confirm or deny these facts? Maybe Harry can enlighten us to Romsey perspective.
Jeremy actually polled 33 votes in the last 6 rounds with the Burras,(and did not play last round).Congratulation to J.Jose taking out Diggers Rest best and fairest on Sunday. Would have to be very close to making the team of the year somewhere

Yep, I know... But this isn't the team that was picked by the coaches, it is my team...Some of our coaches may have suffered a little from Brain Freeze at the Clarkefield pub on that Wednesday night....

Also congratulations to Mick Sheahan who took out Ressies B&F by 3 votes from my tip for League Ressies medal B.Allan.
Dylan Hannnan won the18s B&F (not bad considering he played 6 senior games early in the season.
Anyone else want to let us know there club B&Fs ,oir is it too early.

I have only seen about five Under 18 games this year so its not fair for me to do a market on the Charlie Watson Medal. Same goes with the Scarborough. I think the top U18 prospects from what I have seen would be: Ben Shippard, Shane Bowen, John Baker (umps love flashy players), Danny Harrison, Chris Burkett, Rob Cini. I have only seen one Kangaroos game and they didn't score, haven't seen Riddell, Rockbank, Macedon or Diggers Rest either.
