Wimmera FL discussion 2026

[fatkidinthepocket]

Pick up the phone and ring Thunder and the 3 big NC clubs they are experienced in this area.

The Birchip treasurer wrote a book on it. Still available on Amazon I think.

Lloyd would be the best midfielder in the comp

I think we can all agree Tom Williamson is by far the best midfielder & player in the comp. With some clubs recruiting particularly well in the off season I’m looking forward to watching the Wimmera League next season. Some fantastic players getting about for a league that bats far above its average

Tom Williamson... Daylight....lunar eclipse... then Ben Taylor, I guess

 

[Gonearethe80s!]

They have stars across all lines:

EDFL Gun CHB & Dark - Backline

EDFL Gun Mid, VFL Gun & Toohey Medalist to combine with Wimmera TOTY Ruckman - Mid

Murray added to a forward line with 2 of the top 3 Goalkickers in league.

One more to come?

Hard to see how they can lose it

EDFL Guys will be very handy - their best picks are going to be Dark & Eckle. Exciting for them! Provided they can explain their way through their spending, such as the big farming clubs, they should be excited!

Lloyd only plays mid willamson plays half the game forward

Edfl guys seem to struggle on big open grounds, plenty have come up to the central murray and only a couple have played to their reputation

Best recruit - John Jorgenson and Connor Mcfaydn

Runners up - Ararat
Biggest slider - Dimmy
Wooden Spoon - Dimmy

Anyone else keen to have a crack at predicting there’s?

Dalgleish & Liam Cavanagh would certainty way out any losses Ararat may have.
Dalgleish would cause some serious headaches to the opposition on the big wide open spaces of Ararat. Although getting on a little bit now he would still be lighting quick over 100m and one of the most beautiful left foot kicks you’ll ever see.

Hugh toner should have a big year with no Ganley. Heard Sam white only playing half the year but him and Frazer Driscoll are the two best defenders in the league

 

[chimp2022]

Guccione Stawells new CHB will be hard to beat as the leagues best defender.
Spent time at Essendon VFL.
Late starter to footy but athletically very gifted should take a lot of intercept marks.

Backline of him, dark, 2 marrows and probably a couple mids squeezed out onto the flanks should be a very solid backline. Wont have to have young summers get 10 kicked on him when they play ararat again

stokes?
dewar?
polak?

It will be good not having Graverson trying to drop back loose he cant hold a mark to save his life. It looks like hes scared of the ball. Wont be shocked to see him lining up in the 2s this year. Maybe then he would stop shitting himself against people half his height and weight.
