pickles have we heard any wispers about the 2008 season?
wallan returning?
big names returning to RDFL?
or is it to early?

To put it simply, no decision has been made on Wallan returning. It has been spoken about unofficially at club level, but not at committee level I believe. Next week's paper will have a big spread on the RDFL and my views on a two division competition. It will hopefully also involve the Wallan, Broadford and Gisborne presidents on their views as to whether they would consider returning.

As for players, it wouldn't surprise me if Lee James came back next year. But haven't heard anything substantial about any particular individuals.

Just from speaking to people around the club and supporters, there are alot of people that would like to see us go back to RDFL. It wouldn't surprise me if a meeting was called at the end of the season just to get everyones views on it.

Isnt Lee doing well up bush?
Do u believe that there will be enough teams for a second division?
Which teams do u see in that division?
Do you reckon broadford and gisborne will return?
 
There are few players in this comp that can drill a ball 55 metres and hit someone on the chest WOOTW. Think you are being harsh on Robbo. Probably the best player in this league. Can play forward, back, on-ball etc. Doesn't have as much class as Sims, but who does in the RDFL? Is very much a working class player with an extremely great football gift of talent.


ROBBO BEST PLAYER IN THE LEAGUE are u dreaming..i really think u need to wake up...he is not a good captain...hes not a team player at all..i thought the captain was meant to inspire and enchourage his team mates befor a game...but all i can see is that he likes hanging out at the netball courts prior to a game instead of warming up...and to be a GREAT or the best footballer u need to be able to kick the ball...after all it is called FOOTBALL not dodgeball....or prance around with a pole stuck up my bum ball....i think it is just that when SOME players get introuble they panic and think ill give it to robbo hell do something...UMM HELLO hes not god he cant answer everyones prayers...although he is a great mark and fast and strong...Linton Kemp & Cornish are much better players.....Other teams in the league don't see it....

i dont doubt that he is one of the best players in the league, but his kicking lets him down, i havent seen him hit anyone from 55m. I realise players have there faults as its a part of human nature.
id say cornish has an extremely great gift of football talent.

You're entitled to your opinion, I see some merit in it. I don't think Robbo is the best leader at the club, and perhaps shouldn't be captain. But that is a club issue. The fact is, toe-to-toe, there are few better players in this competition.

Ice, the club probably need to start thinking about it now. Don't want to get to a stage where you are fighting time to join the league. Get Neal Langborne to ring Scott McCartney and he'll probably come and speak to you. I'm sure the RDFL would want 12 clubs, not 11. So you may need to try and convince someone like Trentham to come across.

your opinion is your opinion

I play with the man there is no better leader at the cub and robos team play this year has been better then previous years.His kicking hasn't been at 100% this year but is very important to not only kilmore but the RDFL.

Kempy n Corno are top footballers but i doubt corno would have had 70 shots on goal without robo i the side.I agree that they are quality tho.

If robo turned up at wallan?
Couldnt give him the paperwork fast enough!

My two cents are that Robbo is still young and will grow into the role of being captain. They come in different forms, one can be talking to the players and inspiring them with words or the other can be letting their actions inspire the team-mates on the field. Robbo falls into the latter. He is extremely gifted and I think your being pretty harsh on the young kid. He could grow into one of the best captains the club has had, he just needs time to demonstrate that and have a few of the older players or officials take him under their wing to give him the guidance.
Kempy and Cornish are brilliant players, you just need a few of the younger kids to stand up and Kilmore will be a much stronger outfit than they are now. :thumbsu:
 
If I had to rate the best 10 players at Kilmore on this years form, this is how they would be ordered.

1. Matt Robertson
2. Dave Cornish
3. Linton Kemp
4. Tristan Salter
5. Jason King
6. Adam Goudge
7. Glen Barnes
8. Jamie Duffy (missed early games).
9. Ben Newham
10. Adam Moedt

Stiff to miss out were Justin Colliss, Ryan Straney and Brad Colliver.

sounds to me you don't like the guy at all...:confused:
can anyone confirm whether Robbo played in the 01 Premiership team for Kilmore?? I know he certainly played a few games in the seniors.

who are you? what are you trying to hide? before, your avatar said you were from wallan, now it says melbourne. i hope you are just stirring it up, because you are talking a fair bit of crap here today.

i've only been around a month or so, but he seems very well liked amongst the players and is a goer on the ground. if there are players within the club who dislike him, they don't make it clear to him or anyone else, so maybe they should pipe up and gets things out in the open and make it a better club all round (not that i think that's what is going on)
