Probably middle of the ladder at best a few of there senior players are x keysy 2s players that are regular senior players at St. John’s and there 2s are very average if they want to play finals they will have to recruit a few I think them coming in is going to put more strain on numbers around the area which is struggling these days even Doveton who has always had good numbers over the years struggled to fill there 2s and no juniors at any of these clubs which used to have really good numbers aWell done to both Hallam sides on the weekend! Great weather and turnout at Robert Booth too.
With St John’s coming into Div 4 next year, how does everyone think they will go? Vafa division 6 coming to SFNL div 4
I wonder if more players will come across from Keysy now that they can pay players and whether that will entice players from other clubs that they may approach. Looking at the 2s results this year, they struggled a lot. Also wonder if a few of the retired players from a few seasons ago will come backProbably middle of the ladder at best a few of there senior players are x keysy 2s players that are regular senior players at St. John’s and there 2s are very average if they want to play finals they will have to recruit a few I think them coming in is going to put more strain on numbers around the area which is struggling these days even Doveton who has always had good numbers over the years struggled to fill there 2s and no juniors at any of these clubs which used to have really good numbers a
Lot of migrants with kids and Doveton soccer clubs have become bigger than the football clubs now
Can’t see them getting anymore from keys they had 15 or more cross over 2 years ago only about 8 of those played this year and none of them are young players if anything a couple more might retire and the ones that retired last year i can’t see coming back to play they have a connection with e/hils coach Peake who played at St. John’s and fair few e/hils players went there when they started the club from St. John’s but not sure were they will get players from as not many junior sides around there and they basically folded to a 3rds side and Edwards’s dragged half of keysy there 2 years ago but that well is dry i think money is there only option or a coach who can bring players againI wonder if more players will come across from Keysy now that they can pay players and whether that will entice players from other clubs that they may approach.

They wont struggleI'm tipping they will struggle big time, unless they hire a coach who will bring talent.
Does anyone know If they field a u/19 team ?
If they genuinely want a flag .. they will get older guys back in for one year...
Get spicy MasalaFully understand the hype St. John's will get coming into a new league but what is the long term objective of the club beyond this?
They get old blokes in, win a D4 flag in 2026, all pull the pin ahead of the 2027 season, finish last & come back down to D4 in 2028?
It's a 5 year merry-go-round with clubs who think this is the way of future sustainability.
Will be interesting to see how Doveton Eagles, St. Johns, Dandenong West & Lyndale all go in the same division considering they're all within 8km's of each other.
Think this probably sums up the issues AFL has in the City of Greater Dandenong - credit to these 4 clubs for standing the test of time.
across to D4 as well and we could have a real Greater Dandenong feel to the gradeDo we know whats happening with them? Surely they cant play two teams in the vafa 3rds again.Get spicy Masalaacross to D4 as well and we could have a real Greater Dandenong feel to the grade

Walk out and play for Hallam in Div3?2 interesting games, obviously congrats to Hallam, I think if Tyler Neal was stopped Hallam potentially loose that game, but player of that quality is always gonna get off the chain in a ressies match. Also great to see lyndale loose, worst club in the league and going to get pumped next year. I actually think they could finish close to the bottom, rumours are a heap of guys have had enough and are gonna walk out.
I thought dandy west did well but obviously Hallam just played slightly better footy, there were a heap of good players from both sides I thought Jayden Nolan was a stand out for DW and they looked good but best side all year deserves the chocolates, and tbh all played their role which is what wins games.
As for St. John’s I strongly disagree with this chat, they have multiple league bnf winners, also, vafa div 2 is a good decent standard, I think their easily flag favorites off the bat.

They’ll be alright tbh, I think they’re a head of some clubs in D3 already.Walk out and play for Hallam in Div3?![]()
if not they can always change leagues again when gets to hard for themThey’ll be alright tbh, I think they’re a head of some clubs in D3 already.
Honestly think lyndale are better off, probably we’re paying them a bit, can off load guys that just aren’t gonna win you a flag and try and get some better players in, I think it’s a real bad move on Clayton’s end, especially with Jocs, dandy west and narre south all probably feeling like their a chance now.Clayton picking up Groenendyk & Reeves from Lyndale for 2026…
What’s happening at Puma Land? How many more will walk?
Another shit recruitment by Andrew Kvackaj no doubt. They’ll go nowhere with that peanut involved. Actually, take that back! They could go to a thirds only team like Sandown did.Honestly think lyndale are better off, probably we’re paying them a bit, can off load guys that just aren’t gonna win you a flag and try and get some better players in, I think it’s a real bad move on Clayton’s end, especially with Jocs, dandy west and narre south all probably feeling like their a chance now.
sounds like sour grapes to me 100% a lyndale person disappointed with the outcomeAnother shit recruitment by Andrew Kvackaj no doubt. They’ll go nowhere with that peanut involved. Actually, take that back! They could go to a thirds only team like Sandown did.
Division 4, they mentioned that at the Grand Final BreakfastWhen do they Determine where st johns will end up? be very weird having a 9-team comp with byes but provided each team gets 2 a year it isn't that huge many of the eastern and vafa leagues do it regularly
I am 100% Lyndale person, simple scroll back tells you who I am. They were both leaving anyway. I know how much they’ve offered these guys, way better blokes for what Clayton need at Lyndale and they’ve maxed out their Lyndale transfers on these two.sounds like sour grapes to me 100% a lyndale person disappointed with the outcome
sound very hurt they have left lyndale, going by your previous posts you were the man who paid them at lyndale.I am 100% Lyndale person, simple scroll back tells you who I am.

Like I said they need to step down the bloke that’s taken them from 1 to 4 if they ever want to get anywhere again
