Diggers playing an intraclub tonight. Might be a chance for a few spies to go check them out. Can't see too many teams being very worried about them this season.

Diggers host Heathcote on March 31 in three practice matches. Might be worth a look

Watched Heathcote train last night, they're gunna play finals again in the HDFL so I reckon it will be a good hit out.

doona2, how would you compare the 2 leagues, which do you think is better ?

We've had many a similar forum before, the RDFL boys will always fly their flag and vice versa. I have watched a lot of both leagues for many a year and have the HDFL as a whole in front, that dont mean that say a Riddell of 05/06 wouldnt go real close in the HDFL, just think the depth (final 6-7 players) in the senior sides drop away more in the RDFL.

Guess with the Carroll boys, Al Meldrum and Johnny Rowe joining our comp we'll get a better idea after assessing their performances against HDFL players.

I might pop up too...

heard that the "Gleeson Bros" from Bacchus Marsh can play. Only 16 and 18 years old. Both played well in their mini-games (10 a side / full ground) last week...

Riddell
Diggers
Kilmore

Players to watch - Cornish (kilmore)
dont reaally know much of other recruits apart from what ive heard on here

but must agree that Welsh from Kangas is good to watch when he is playing i think besides the McInerneys is the one who can win a game off his own boot with 10 good minutes (no disrespect to the other boys there) but i have seen this before as some may recall a match between Kilmore and Sunbury over there bout 3 years back when the Chief kicked 4 or so in the last to steal the game from us!!!

Saw you and the gang there Mongrel. But next time no need to park out the front of the fire station till we start. haha we noticed you did that.

Was a good game. There was a few mistakes and errors but thats bound to happen this time of year. I think i touched it three times. Had a ordinary game. Sims and Ruane dominated. Dont be afraid to back Ruane for another crack at the bowen this year. Looking better than the year he won it.

And big payne train kicked 6 on very good opponents. So look out for the big fella in 07.

And Duffy few of the fellas think we should make an annual event of the goings on after the Kilmore v Diggers games. What do you think??

You must not of been aware that Burger5 was out for most of the year with a neck injury johnno. Im certain he would have your cover anyday.

Bowen medalists will be Jackson Baddeley. He is one classy footballer and deserves respect from his opponents. He has blinding speed and has an uncanny ability to always be where the ball is. Plays with it on a string. Go baddeley and go kangas.

 

[vantheman32]

he goes alrite but not a medalist

Baddeley has no chance. Not even in the same sentence as Sipthorpe, Sims, Ruane, S James, Morgan, Ng etc etc........
