Have heared that some clubs are paying under 18 players, is this true or a lie.

I agree D.Sipthorpe is one hard man. sure these others are 'tough' sort of players in the league but he will be almost unstoppable. Have only seen him play 5 or so times, those were impressive enough. Also spoken to players that played with him and they say he is a gun.

i also heard little rumour that perhaps romsey are payin under 18s?
I was speaking to Nic Dyer the other day and Romsey have about 35 Under-18s so there will be a few missing out up the road, maybe those who want more opportunities could come to Tigerland.[/quote]
Now Nics 35+ under -18s starting to make a little sense disappointing if you are right Van.

My nephew play's u16s for a Riddell league club, he was contacted last night from a club outside the RDJFL they told him they would pay his fee's buy him boot's ,sock's ,shorts, jumper and a tracky . Close 2 a few hundred bucks worth i guess . He's only an average footballer by no means a star . I know it's not the same as being paid , but not far off it and it is u16s. This maybe standard practice these day's , i dont know .

Its actually against the rules of junior competitions I believe, if it is happening in Under 16's the club can be booted from the comp... Anyone can correct me if I am wrong, this is only a belief that I held...

I can guarantee that in the eastern league, clubs are offering fees, shorts, socks,jumpers, and top of the line boots for juniors to come across to other clubs. This is not a silly idea if a kid could be capable of making the top level, but it is still not acceptable, some clubs struggle to feild juniors let alone have their kids poached. It would definetly be a shame if this has come closer to home.
The only time i can see that paying 18s may be acceptable, is for a senior club that has no juniors and requires an under 18s. To me that is survival.

you'd hope clubs wouldnt be paying junior players, teaches the young kids the wrong values about country footy.
bumped into a buff looking David Patterson today, really has enlarged those biceps of his. Seems as if he may of hit the juice.

Rumor has it that the RDFL have appointed the new GM. Announcement expected early next week. Is some-one with elite sport management experience. Should be a good assest to the league, An ex Junior RDFL player returning home to make the RDFL a force to be reconed with.
lol got a drunken phone call of the old fella and bev a few months back - he was tellin me to go down to diggers!! should be fun to have around as i wasn't playin when he was last here! lol so no chance of B Green joining him up here.......

The RDFL was already heading in the right direction to becoming a force... Hopefully this guy can finish the job...I broke this many weeks ago.

All we dont want to see is what is happening over in the Diamond Valley League at the moment... The league in big big trouble over there....
possibly the worst rumor going around, none of us boys gettin payed, we playin caus we love the game, and most importantly the friendship
Heard, heard, heard, thats all you ever do, every post you make is all hear say and wrong the first one being last september. I hear alot of things about your red and blue but if i think it's crap i dont post it.
If an under 18 plays seniors and is in the best he may receive an incentive, good luck to a kid havin a go.
