didnt rosewater deck the cards last year with quality players only to go out in straight sets....guess money can only buy so much and yet it cant stop choking

What does "deck the cards" even mean?
and it wasn't straight sets...

rosewater had a 30 thousand football budget last year so i guess im saying out of that 30k money was paid to some quality players who in return failed to fire at finals time and no im not saying you used all 30k on players that was the total budget

What's Poorakas budget been and how would you rate their last two years?

So what you are saying is that you have no idea how much has been paid to who. I would say that player depth was a major problem last year, as it has been for a number of years.

i had to remove the post but its not much at all

Rosewater looking like they will be unstoppable this year. Looking like they have easily improved on the side they had last year that won 15 games in a row already.
Darren Grimmond, Alex Losic, Daniel Thomas, and Jake Williams are all way too good for Div 6; three of them quite capable of playing D1 footy if they had the discipline to.
Rosewater may have to fork out a bit of cash to get D Thomas though, I suspect he has a few outstanding fees to pay Port District.

There's something wrong if they cannot make it to, if not win the GF this year.

On top of this, Nick Williams should be pretty handy in D6 too (depending on his fitness) can play forward or back.
Jase Matte is a quality footballer too. Good defender, and could probably run through the mid if needed too.

I only know 6 of their 15 recruits too, I daresay there'd be a few handy players in the 9 recruits I don't know...

was always going to be a hard year for the lions
hope im not correct in this but the next few years are going to be hard
i notice everyone jumping on the dogs but for me mawsons
great footballers headed down that way

Yes deeman a few years of pain to come. Scooter deserves better but, I'll support him till the good times come back, love the bloke. My old mate half back flanker has been keeping his cards to himself but they look good and I expect them and Rossies to dominate this comp this year. Rossies do have some SERIOUS 'shuffle' happening tho.

rosewater... set to dominate the comp! (pays players)

mitchell park... a few years of pain to come (doesnt pay players)

geeze theres a difference in there somewhere but i cant quite see it. i think 1 team is smiling and the other team is crying but i cant seem to work out why?????

Don't think $$ has much to do with it, whether you pay players or not. A lot of clubs have big player movement. As much as Mitchell Park would have enjoyed the flag couple years back the wheels were always going to fall off pretty quick. When the lads with valley connection were lucky enough to get some class players to the den they were never gonna hang around more than a year or two, that along with few club stalwarts with most there best footy behind them there was going to be some BIG holes to fill.

I think the work that some have been doing with the kids will be what can pull them back out in the next few years if they can keep the good youngsters at the club

[old fullback]

Rossies with a 30k footy budget, wouldn't think too many clubs in this grade can compete with that, or is it just a furfy ?

[Mr Beefy]

Doesnt matter whether its a furfy or not, if people think its the case then they will go with it. Perception is reality. Whats Maw$on Lake$, must be more cos they have two $s in their name, maybe theirs is $40k.

[Yank Man]

I heard on the weekend that Mitchell Park have a female that takes them for their drills.

is this correct? if so, how is that going?

In other news, the sun rose this morning.

And guess what morell, it rose AGAIN this morning. Funny thing that sun. It doesn't need $$$$$ it just keeps on rising.

How are West Croydon and Blackfriars looking? I heard WC has picked up J Harding?

Hasn't had his knee op yet so unlikely.

thanks arch..he will be playing against nathan rayner then who he won a premiership medal with in 2012..

[The Riddler]

Why aren't these blokes (Harding & Rayner) heading back to Woodville South now they're in in Div 4?

[Arch44]

Harding wont be playing because of his knee.

[HardenUp]

Hargraves would be getting on now wouldn't he?

Fitzroy mustv'e been the highest bidder for Rayner.

Hargraves would be close to 40 by now and believe another signing of the Roy's, Broadhurst also played league at North. From memory he was their full foward the year Hargraves did pre-season with Port Adelaide.

Surprised to hear Pearce was leaving, anyone from the Roys shed some light?

[Danky$$]

I heard Rosie's spent closer to 80k this year

[Danky$$]

Daniel Reardon on 500 a game

[Footy Chick]

yeah, 500 CENTS

Well I heard Jesus was planning on making his second coming and SAAFL debut in round 6 but occasionally you just have to say to people "Please don't speaketh your bull shitski to me"
