EP Football - PLFL, GFFL, MWFL, FWFL, EEFL

[overloaded]

Whoever said P Dudley is playing this week knows very little about the game. Who said it media park?

[Dermie]

Acock you need to watch your mouth - why dont you be a league delegate if you are so tough and point the finger at MR and W for not joining in. Do you think you are above the law mate ..... aboslute willy sucker

I agree with him. Obviously nothing happened to MP after the 2008 GF, nothing I heard anyway. Were the WFC happy with this outcome and supportive of the PLFL when they did NOTHING - AGAIN??????

Waybacks and MR look like a couple of PLFL brown noses to me, weak fence sitters

I fair dinkum hope the next MP indescretion involves one of these clubs - and you can bet there will be another indescretion so long as my arse points to the ground

I think OS you might find as BTB posted a while back that going by the constitution W & MR was follow what is written in it as the other clubs should have done as well
as thats the rules for this league that each club has agreed to adhere to. So i can't see how you claim they are fence sitters/brown noses when all they have done is abide by the constitution, perhaps the other clubs might need to ask for a copy or actually read the 1 they have got.

Ken Whelan Fan;

Not sure who JA is though..

OL: It was in the write up for the Mallee game on the weekend- also hyped the return of HM and Mallee Miller.

[bluestheboy]

BTB considering you don't even live in this state youve got your hand on your pulse Considering you have been involved in TFC for 5 minutes you have now become an expert...well done
Fact one:Since the 29th of May, at the the various league meetings not once has your former club
condemned the actions of Mallee Park.Can you show me where they have condoned their actions
Fact two: your former club in 2008 was the receiving end of similar unsavoury behaviour, although to be
fair you did win the GF and didnt have an u17 Fitting and Hospitalsed and make no mistake but for the
fact that an RN was in attendance that day he could have died. Did you or fellow members find it acceptable.Please use commas. Doesn't really deserve an answer except that as Life Member of the WFC it is still very much MY CLUB. I am not a blow in with memberships of other PLFL clubs on my CV
Fact three: you havent been to any PLFL meeting in 2010 so what you are talking about is either Fiction
or secondhand.As against going to the meetings and talking fiction?
Fact four:At no stage has the TFC undermined the PLFL in truth what we are trying to do is improve
the environment in which our kids and our senior players participate.Do we really need to revisit the origins of the Ravendale saga
Fact five: if that was a young JA lying on the ground what would your thought process be?Been there done that. Knocked out cold by a crude late hit from young WR. 3 meters from umpire JJ who paid a free kick because it was a "touch late". Spent the night in hospital and missed a week of school.
This isnt about what Springs or Steve Burger or Patch or Jedda or Joe did thats in the past
and cant be changed what can change is the present and that is the task before the PLFL in the
coming months>At what point did I say it was? This is about due process and sustainable change. No one in their right mind would condone what happened or has happened in the past BUT just because a club doesn't take your line of thinking doesn't mean they are on the other side. As I said b4, the WFC has a history of siding with the PLFL and this is no different.

[Media Park]

On the penalty to Boston, whilst I am happy that Boston received virtually no penalty, I am confused.

If it (the offence) was considered bad enough to have DS and MH beat their chests about and make Boston front the tribunal, how would they feel about a (suspended) fine, and a forced meeting with Mallee Park, considering that Mallee ducked the first meeting, and the second achieved nothing, which forced Boston to take the drastic action they did.

A meeting with Mallee Park will achieve nothing, and there was no fine imposed (unless Boston front the tribunal again, and are found guilty), so was it really such a major breach of rules?

Blues, only thing I can suggest is reading the minutes of the League meeting (not sure which one), where Clive stated that WFC supported the action taken by PLFL- I believe you are still on the mailing list...

Can you make sure the learned member of the TFC gets a copy.

I'm no longer in a position to do that... but I notice Coyote Ugly is currently browsing the forum... perhaps he can hook it up...

You cant be serious KWF? Your delegate left that meeting knowing and agreed to the stance we had on the ravendale issue (that we were going to wait and see what panned out) but your club saw fit to go and do a deal with the PLCC without our consent or any of the other clubs.

CU, if you don't know that, then you are not involved with PLFL.

Last nights result was very pleasing as there were plenty of concerned people around the club but we got off with no penalty at all really all things considered and the only ones that lost out where the MPFC

The MPFC were the big losers ladies and gentleman

I like that... Except that since the cessation of WGT as a poster, it's just gentlemen...

[wlm]

We at MRFC are not aligned with MPFC. They still owe us $2k from a couple of years ago. What we support is the upholding of the PLFL constitution which ALL clubs signed up to. No rules no organised competition. Simple as that.

[Media Park]

wlm. You've opened up with your first few posts, without bashing other posters (i.e Bantamweight, onthebench), so I rate that.

My Only problem with what you write, is that Mallee Park have always flouted the rules, and Mallee Park have always broken the constitution, and the PLFL does absolutely nothing.

I was required to attend 4 meetings last year, with the junior "executive" and Mallee's committee, to discuss their issues.

All four times, for meetings both at UFC Oval, and the PLFL office, Mallee no-showed, despite clear directives to do so (breach PLFL bylaw 30, FYI ).

Absolutely nothing was done about it, and the infringements of Mallee continued unchecked.

Yes Boston breached a rule by refusing to play, but the same rule has been breached by Mallee, as well as many more, and even though the breaches are reported to the league, no-one does anything about it, so I cannot accept that there is a rule for Boston (and presumably the other five clubs), and a different rule for Mallee.

I think it's a bit premature to call winners & losers out of this fiasco, the fallout hasn't hit rock bottom yet.

Whilst i am happy there has been no suspension or loss of premiership points for BFC I would have liked to have seen the fine imposed upheld. There had to be some penalty and I feel the League have once again bowed to pressure, inturn missing the bigger picture of why and what the forfeit was about, handing out a similar weak penalty to BFC as dished out to MP in the beginning which is what it's all about. The rematch will be no safer in four weeks time just because it's played at Poole and if that's what people think then they have their heads up their rs. Tough penalties is the only solution in preventing violent behaviour in sport.

As acock alluded to "the opportunity for change has probably passed us once again till next time", and yes there will be a next time.

I am sick of port lincoln football. Im not posting again

i hear they thinking of calling you up again

Untapped Ability:

Give up the charade, you are getting yourself in trouble.

[heater31]

Football in Port Lincoln is a complete joke. I'm sure the league is the laughing stock of the entire State.


What happens next time when the outcome of alleged on-field actions is much worse than the last case? Who's heads are on the chopping block? Where does the duty of care fall?

For all the inadequacies of the SAAFL over in town this is one area in which they do not tolerate at all. Clubs are put on notice that if they don't abide by the rules of game and League then they must suffer the consequences of their actions.

Get your heads out of the sand and admit there is a problem before it is all too late.

BTFB
Its been Five Years at TFC.Prior to that a member, player and proud sponsor of RFC for 21 years.
I congratulate you on being a life member of the WFC.
If you would like to debate history and success, then bring it on.
The fact is whilst your passion cant be denied, you don't live here and have no active
participation in WFC, nor the PLFL.
When JA was injured did you feel angry and upset at the treatment he received?
The fact is, it has been getting worse not better.
We are dealing with some disingenuous people who know how to manipulate
the system, I agree with you on the way forward but until all clubs are on the same
wavelength then we play into those peoples hand.
As for Ravendale "build a bridge and get over it"


CU
no need to look for me I will be out the front of the PLFL
with a constitution rolled up ready to shove it up your ar$e
dont forget your blue jumper
