Longies dropped some big names, still losing some, may find things a bit rugged!


Besides Faulkner and Serle, what other big names have longies lost and who may still be going?

Heard Pym, Earl and McArdle were brilliant with the bat and steered Longies to victory. Johnny Palmer is back out at the Water Tower, or Truss's bed.

I noticed on Saturday the Council has splurged on new signs declaring Mallala "The Home of Motorsport". I wonder how the residents of Bathurst feel about that.

Something we should know about Ace about the finance managers at Wakefield council?? Mallala council doesnt pay Mallala players, maybe its something we should look at. I wonder how Mythical Creature feels about his council rates going toward the Brant and Thomas support fund.

Whats the goss on D Christie?


Shows how strong United are, outlasting bigger population bases.

Heard Christie is playing in town again. What is Southern doing Donkey? Is he staying around or is he moving onto ANOTHER club? Also heard Matty Head won't play at all this year due to study commitments. Any recruits coming your way Donkey to cover these?

Not like these companies. Im sure any club in the league can obtain a sponsorship from these companies but McCardle and Sharman would not oblige as much as they do for Longies.
