River Murray Football League talk

[On The Chest]

Hows Mark Meuller going at Mannum. Has he had a quieter year than last year on the field. Nice skills.

He has been a little quiet the last couple of weeks after a huge start to the season. With the kids now up and about, I think all the old dogs will return to the 1st 3 games form which was unstoppable.

Good to hear he's going well. Can certainly play

Watched my 1st RMFL game yesty
Harvey went missing. First time he come up against quality opposition, expect to see more of that.

Hall on the other hand gets the job done when it matters, too many high priced passengers yesterday he cant carry them all.

Hang on a minute there are a few reasons why your talking rubbish about watching your first game of river murray footy, the first being your ankle device goes off well before your front gate, the other being you wouldn't have gone far past the local mannum bakery. just a hint keep your shit to yourself thanks board magnet.

Watcher , thats not very fair i am a long serving Imps supporter and just telling the truth , my whole point is as i stated in my first post was to at least have imps name mentioned occasionally instead of the constatant bannging on from Hazel and co about a very over rated team in Mannum , Mannum arnt the only ones Tailem and especially Meningie seem to have some thing said about them constantly , there is nothing crap about being a imperial supporter . and another thing Watcher what was crap in that post. ??

obviously mannum, tailem and meningie have more IT savvy followers hence them being spoken about more. Also with all the inlusions at mannum and meningie and the player revolt at Tailem where else do you think public conversations are going to come from. It's a public forum for the RMFL the posters can talk about whoever they like, maybe when imps start doing something people will talk about them, or maybe you as an insightful follower and supporter of imps can give us something constructive to talk about

Whats it got to do with you, ya Div 5 hero?
You might even get a kick there, will be something new but then again you will have to get your own footy at that level

[anzacspirit]

Fair enough Bazza my view only . I agree Meningie and Tailem will be be or should be a highlight of the round . I think all Mannum did last week was to push Imperials to yet another level of great country footy . Imperials are also too well coached for any other team and its great that the magnificant one COLLO, is the association coach this year he is certainly a step ahead of the rest. Its true however that Tony Fielke deserves a lot of credit as Collo did land on his feet with that team and doesnt have to do a lot for his money. I see hally from Mannum is his side kick this year not sure if he can add a great deal but im happy with the appointment hopefully he will learn something to take back to Mannum ??? Some of the young ones there Tonkes boles and hale in particular need a lesson ??? Dalwoods write up had a bit of a crack at them and deservedly so.

WOW very little respect for the great man, you don't think a guy who has been AFL listed (played two games for Port Power), played in a winning grand final in the WAFL also won the Simpson medal for best afield, was named in South Adelaide's Team of the Decade, you honestly don't think he could add something to the coaching group???? You know there is a world outside of your imperial bubble.

[biffboy]

I reckon Hall will be a awesome assistant, best idea the RMFL have had for years.

Reason why Mannum, Tailem and Meninge are all the talk....well maybe they are the teams with all the big moves going around.

Why would we want to talk about Imps, Ramblers and Mypo who havent done anything interesting??? Imps have barely picked up anyone, Ramblers have got back a couple kids and a few unknowns and Mypo have a few new blokes and a couple juniors back aswell

My tips this week

Ramblers by a point
Imps by 4 goal
Meninge by 10 goal

Game of the day definitely at the hub, be there if you like country footy

Well there you go i managed to get a conversation about Imperials. Certainly no Malice intended, im sure hally will be a good assistant , just striking up a reaction to get your thoughts. Didnt see much comment about Tony Fielke, speaking of a lack of respect as he did set that team up, as for recruits to imps it appears based on points that we dont have many, we have however managed to keep our recruits which is a credit to the club , if you research where a majority live they are not from Murray bridge and once were point allocated recruits or in the team prior to the points system, all credit to a well run club. Yes Mannum and others are well worth the conversation but not constantly, i actually feel a little sorry for some of the teams as they simply have not got what they paid for, especially Mannum, and please let me clarify that i seen last weeks game and the blokes from Port didnt seem interested, again my own recolection of the game. I hope that they do improve for the sake of the competition.

seems to me that Shane Collins is playing more local lads a yr out of colts than what tony fielke did? Which can only be a good thing for them especially with the depth and numbers of there juniour programs, I don't really see why they would need to recruit to many players, which they don't seem to be doing anyway

no probs, good to have an imps poster on board to carry on the banter in here. It's a pity last weeks game was the only mannum one you have seen as in the previous weeks they were outstanding, but we were beaten well and truly and the club will learn from this and hopefully knock off ramblers this week.

[used to be]

collo certainly is because he can , the success breeds success and makes kids want to come to the club, Tony did give a few kids a go but did have his favourites i think. The juniors getting a go now are of some prominant parents of the club( sponsors) maybe just coincidence as these lads were not old enough when Tony was coaching, again no malice intended. ??? The junior development at imps is certainly a step ahead of the rest the quality of talent and the volume of players is certainly a testoment to the hard work and dedication of the club. I think its very possible even at this early stage to win the big 4 this year.

[Goldberg]

After your last few posts, I would say there is around 1% chance you are in fact an Imps supporter

[used to be]

Well Goldburger i am very much an imperials supporter , maybe not on the commitee but not that far away. Unfortunately i know personally that some are getting games in front of others and i am just venting my frustration. As for the 1% may be you should try doing them as i am starting to think by your posts that you are a player and not from Imperials.

[hazel jnr]

Why are all non mannum fans hating on the port magpies boys that are now playing for mannum?

[On The Chest]

At which dock have the Love boats anchored in at?

Going by the Clearances List, Ray applied to go Marion which was denied. Havent noticed anything for Owen.

Believe Owen was looking to go to Jervois but I don't know if Jervois would have enough spare points. Why would Tailem clear them now? Didn't they put a fair bit of money up front to have them at Tailem?

If the love brothers are just wanting to leave tailem because it is something that they are not happy with then personnaly there is no way i would be clearing them as they are contracted players and must see out that contract. On the other hand if tailem have said to them that they are no longer required then i dont see why they would not be cleared. But from all reports its has been a bit of a dummy spit by one of the love brothers therefore no clearance have the rest of the year off if thats the case miss out on your payments and then look elsewhere next year. And i commend tailem for sticking to there guns and not clearing them if this is the case.

[used to be]

Hazel junior , if you are referring to my comments there was no hate involved , my observation was that over hear we had heard a lot about Mannum recruits in particular the port recruits , obviously money would be changing hands and i am wondering the value , wouldnt Mannum be better off trying to play some juniors as we are?? Based on the performance last week they need to improve a hell of a lot to be competitive at rmfl level and i wonder if they are capable.

Thats what I heard. Weren't asked to leave the club. Decided of their own choice to leave. If that is the case, bad luck. Put in a clearance next year.

players have off weeks, last week for mannum was just a bad one, as i mentioned previously, the other weeks you would have found the majority of mannums new recruits in the best players. your opinion is based on one match which is fair enough but others who have seen the likes of tonkes, hales, bowles, harvey, pech and thomas play over the last few weeks would have a vastly different opinion. So far i have rated motlop. mcleod and ware as pretty ordinary pickups by meningie but there is every chance by seasons end i will be wrong.

[grasshopper22]

Meningie over taliem by 5 or 6 goals

[biffboy]

Seems like Mannum must have had another off week as they never really looked in the contest today depsite the margin only being 2 1/2 goals at the end of the third.

Omalley and Mueller were by far the standouts for them, Harvey was servicable but lacked a bit of pace.

Big news of the day would be Hall going down with what looked like a hammy and judging by his past injury issues, this could now become a ongoing problem for him this year.

Seems mypo were more than competetive against Imps and Meninge with there first win of the year is good news for them and there supporters.
