To embarrased to name your own club, you should be ashamed of yourself.
Its all good and well for you to get on here and try and shoot down Gisborne but cant even name your own club, what a joke !

Cant you read, are you really that stupid ? I DONT FOLLOW "A" CLUB !
I FOLLOW THE R.D.F.L. !
Is that just to much of a foreign concept for your challenged intellect to accept ?

come on sharpy.we all know gisborne chase the local talent.they always have.and yes they are playing at a better standard.BUT....
Dont forget we we all come from.the RDFL
Could you give me some examples of players we have "chased".
Have a good look at the amount of Gisborne Juniors playing in the RDFL, that were "chased" by Riddell league clubs and in alot of cases being paid good money. Riddell, Macedon, Woodend, Kangaroos, Lancefield, Romsey and possibly more all have some former Gisborne players.
How did i get caught in the middle of this anyway ?
I only asked if you boys wanted to come over and have a beer on Saturday. (and offered a discount)

BB... Be very careful coming into another league's forum and pushing an agenda that you should easily know would not be very popular here.
I noticed that you mentioned giving up players to "give a chop out" are they the same players that the coach said "if you go and play there you will not play finals for us!!" Not much of a chop out if you ask me... Even your arch nemisis Sunbury Lions actually gave a chop out when they offered, so the Gissy way seemed a little more of a Cop Out to me...
Is a person not able to "support" a league and the football played in it? Does he have to follow a particular side.. I didn't think this was the case, but ill have a chat to OMNI about picking one side and sticking to it....
This is an RDFL forum, and just as potting the Bendigo FL on thier thread is not acceptable, neither is potting the RDFL here, a league where the almighty and all powerful "Gissy" got thier start....
Thank you for your time. But it is no required in this forum.. Sorta similar to Gisbourne just not being required by the RDFL anymore.. We are doing just fine without you thanks...

how many examples would u like?
ive lost count.
Some of you blokes on here are kidding, what agenda ? When have i ever potted the RDFL ? and i have no problem with someone supporting a league, but i do have a problem with weak gutted people having a crack and making ridiculous comments about the club i'm involved in from behind a computer.BB...

And again please point out were i potted the RDFL
I have no argument that there are players at Gisborne from RDFL clubs, lets not get carried away with the numbers though boys .
I guess your still looking for the post were i had a crack at the RDFL.

Are you really that disillusioned????
Every cheap shot you have by calling his side "unsuccessful" is having a shot at our league, because lets be honest with each other now, no matter what club in the RDFL that OMNI mentioned he supported, you would pot them as not being as successful as "Gissy"... So lets be realistic. It is a pointless exercise trying to talk to you about anyone outside of the "Centre of the Universe"...
So lets just leave it there shall we.. You live in your world of domination over a league that outside of the top 3 is 2nd rate and we can live in our world of a competition that has worked its butt off to rebuild and now produces several excellent games of football each week, all worth watching..
And from now on we can all live in our own excellence...
I'm pretty disapointed with some of the comments being made against Gisborne on here fellas. All i intended to do was mention our family day this week, and ended up getting in a blue with you blokes by defending the Gisborne footy club, Not once did i disrespect this league or any club in it, i wouldnt do that, in fact in the past when Gisborne have had a bye, myself and quite a few others from Gissy have been and supported RDFL games. We have the upmost respect for your comp and the teams in it but its a real shame we arent afforded that same respect by some of you guys.

ok firstly i lived in gisborne for over 20 years and i am good friends with their coach and a lot of the players there.i dont have any issue with the players.my distain is for the club.when i was de listed from geelong,it was gisborne that contacted me first.i saw local gun players been pushed aside 4 high paid imports year after year.and it looked as though i was about to become another.i decided to play at macedon with hawkins,mcinernys etc,etc,etc.while gisborne spent up big on the likes of brad fox and co.when they had 5 or 6 local guns that werent of value to them coz they were locals and expected to play for nothing.also i made every 1 of gisbornes player look second rate each time we played.
YET as soon as gisborne went to a "better league" all of a sudden they became so called superstars.to good for the rdfl and too good for half the locals.and perhaps the numerous offers for mark mcinerny to come to gisborne as a onballer for their twos this year further highlights the clubs arrogance and disregard for local talent
People don't dislike Gisborne because they are successful, people dislike them because many of them are arrogant, cocky and believe the sun shines out of their arse.
There have been many an RDFL young gun poached by the Bulldogs, and in fairness to Gisborne, that's probably very smart of them.
I don't believe Bearsboy deserved some of criticism he got served, but you have to understand that many RDFL people never have and never will like the Gisborne Football Club.
Marcus Barham's decision to play his forwards in defence and backmen in front of goals against a struggling club was sheer arrogance and would have been an extra kick in the guts for Kangaroo Flat.
EDIT: You just posted your comment before mine Mongrel, well said!!!

I am sitting on the fence with this one!
Yes some people view the fact that Gisborne and Sunbury screwed the RDFL! They did, no disputing that!
However these clubs do offer a higher level of football for our 'guns' players to go on achieve more though!
I understand where Sharpy is coming from as well Mongrel and the others!
No one forced Eamon Hancock or Shane davis to leave there clubs respectively to go to Gisborne! Its a decision made by the player to sign that clerance form!
Some play for money others play for mates, and pride of where they have come form! Its just another form of enticing players by offering coin!
However the gap between the RDFL and both BFL's isn't as much as what is was 4/5 years ago! Where catching up and catching up fast!

You mentioned family day.. You got a response.. You jumped on the bait... Debate started...

Correct me if I'm wrong here but if my memory serves me correctly, didn't the RDFL award Gisborne to host the 1999 GF, only to discover a little further down the track announce their move to the BFL? A few slightly upset people around RDFL house at the time I recall.
now pickle don't get roped into the argument about the gisborne football club, get to the really interesting stuff and tell the boys what you got up too last night.
Okay here goes ...
Last night was fantastic. I arrived at MacPherson Park not knowing what to expect. Obviously there was some nerves as it was only two weeks since I potted the RDFLUA in the newspaper.
It was surprising that many knew me from BigFooty (so be careful what you write fellas, they know who you are).
I am still recovering from my broken wrist so didn't bring gear to train, but was debriefed on the role of a junior umpire and then mingled with the ladies and gents when training ended.
Afterwards we all had a meal, talked some garbage etc. Had a yarn with the Semmens boys, and then about seven of us stayed and played poker. (Thanks to Ice for buying me in as I didn't bring any cash).
While I'm sure there will be a conflict of interest at some stage with my line of work, I think I'll enjoy this challenge.
Thanks goes out to blokes such as Ice, Rhys and Gilesy for making it easy for me to fit in.
Looks like my first game will be Sunday week, so any people wanting to come sledge me is welcome. Please know that I have the right to stop the game until you are ejected though fellas
Overall, some great blokes and shielas, and I look forward to next Wednesday night. For all those RDFLUA poker players reading this, be on notice that i'll be going one place better next week! Matt Nicholls is no runner-up when it comes to gambling. Isn't that right Mongrel?
I wouldnt call it bait. Id call it a gutless attack on our club from a pretty weak individual and your response hasnt been much better.
Regarding my previous posts about me respecting the RDFL, i failed to mention that my company sponsors 3 clubs in this league.
Bearsboy is done on this matter.
Another thing, im not Sharpy

Maybe next time you bet with Mongrel you could at least make it a fair bet.. Lancefield to beat Rockbank isn't much of a bet....
