Did they have their new colours picked out then?



not that I can remember I think that was the stumbling block they couldn't decide on what to go with.

Bulldogs is a good choice too. If every thing goes belly up and a super league forms they won't have to change colours again

Just don't make the same stuff up as Cougars did when they came to fruition. Their first set of jumpers were shocking and obviously somebody had too many brews one night out under the Hut at Kapinnie when the designed that lot

The MRFC are seriously considering leaving the PLFL to join GF. I'm led to believe they have had several internal meetings regarding the issue and have even had what was meant to be a confidential meeting with officials from GF.

They can see their club suffering severely in the coming years from the problem of having a daughter in PL for netball while a son is out at Wangary playing football. One parent in Lincoln, one at Wangary running two vehicles!!

I already know of a couple of my mates out there with kids that are going to join GF clubs regardless, once their kids reach sporting age. The names of these families are long time MR families but in this day and age and the travel factor this is by far the easier and more cost efficient option. The whole family will be at one venue and I can understand completely (especially as Mum can drive Dad home :wink: )

They are looking at adopting Bulldogs colours and this could happen a lot sooner than a lot of people think. The departure of MR from the PLFL would certainly weaken our comp and it's credibility with one of the biggest supported clubs jumping ship.

It's now time for some serious discussions to take place to fast track the alignment of football and netball clubs so a joint super league can be formed to ensure a healthy and vibrant standard of footy on the lower EP.

So, what do we think of that.......
Is there a chance this may happen before next weekend?

It would never happen that quick. Talk has been rife for years and nothing has ever happened. Marble Range are vital to the PLFL but no one is irreplaceable.

Does PL footy really need the Tigers, after last years efforts I'd say no. It's a bye anyway, might as well just call the day off and go fishing!![/quote]

I have also heard from a reliable source that Souths have made an approach to the GFFL. I can see the merit in making a move but consideration should be made to the other clubs. I want to see Souths and Bostons be our bitches in the A's and B's for few more years yet!

any club with a vision for the future would look at it. only the strong will survive, hence souths and bostons will have to fold or merge.

While it's a day for me to post on this thread I'll add that the MR Community Centre have just spent $80k relaying and improving the courts out there. Coincidence, I think not......

C,mom Panther stop spreading unfounded rumours. You know the GFFL would be too strong for Marble Range. Tell them the true story - MWFL here we come.
