    No apparent ties to Ormond so it's fair to assume he has gone there for coin. At his age, and with his record at Premier level, I think they will get a good return on their $$$.

    Seca - Sth East Ca 17/18

    Yeah, giving him the Captaincy turned out to be a huge mistake.

    Reckon Noble would have the Binners covered and would fancy themselves against a few other South teams. Oakleigh were East for a few of those flags, only two of them since Kingston left?

    Think James Pearson will have the choice of ends in the TOTY but Splatt and Jones will be in the discussion with others for remaining bowling duties, one might sneak in. Still hoping Bobby heads back to Shark Park but if cash and the St Kilda connection come into play then Caulfield would be in...

    While discussing points and caps, I would hazard a guess that the only Oakleigh player getting paid to play this season would have been BJ. Sometimes money isn't the defining factor in success.

    The fact that the VTCA, the VSDCA, and CV are investigating options is testimony to the depth of the issue. It is generally acknowledged that the old pro player rules was ineffective so I struggle to see how a cap can be more effective. If a player agrees to an under the table payment, or a...

    On the contrary, it is all that is better. 10th going into the last H&A, scrape into 6th, knock off 1st, go to Melton, win, make a GF that looked totally out of reach 3 weeks ago. Took a stumble in GF, yeah, bit like Bonbeach. Elsternwick would have been in the satellites under the CSB model...

    Has to be at Warrawee. Well done to the Oaks, probably won't have a TOTY rep but have Kenny, 3 out of 4 teams in the GF, and odds on to win SW.

    Big weekend of upsets. Feel a bit sorry for Werribee if they had no control over the JLT debacle. Don't think Caulfield will put in back to back shockers, Melton get the home ground advantage again, Melton vs Caulfield GF at Melton. Who would have thought that 2 weeks ago!

    Couldn't agree more. CV may, or may not, have good intentions but not for the first time their execution is flawed. If it ain't broke...

    Sorry, I am more S than E so can't shine too much light on the N/E series. Agree the title is Caulfield's to lose, and also agree that Oakleigh vs Willi is toss of the coin. Oaks at Warrawee are very hard to beat but their line up is honest these days rather than star studded so they are...

    The Binners finished 7th of the 7 VSDCA South clubs so CSB's top 4 would be embarassed if they didn't have them covered. Ormond would fancy their chances against Carnegie, even Beauy, doubt they would be smashed. Not a SECA issue so not commenting further on this.

    Seca - Sth East Ca 17/18

    SECA are now pretty much the odd one out. ECA and DDCA are pretty much play on although CV are now trying to push BHRDCA and RDCA into a single entity with the ECA, not sure how that's travelling. North/West are all being pulled into a single zone. The whole thing is driven by CV wanting to have...

    Vtca Season 2017/18 & 2018/19

    The whole point of the CV "regionalisation" program is to have clubs play in the division aligned to their council. In the extremely unlikely event that Subbies votes itself out of existence, Noble will play in the DDCA. CSB stronger than the DDCA, you're on the Cheech and Chongs.

    Vtca Season 2017/18 & 2018/19

    Suspect you are referring to Bobby Quiney, be a shame if he didn't head to Shark Park. BTW, Noble would not go into CSB, they would go into DDCA given Pat Wright oval is in the City of Greater Dandenong. They wouldn't want be travelling all the way to Port Melbourne or Bonbeach would they.

    Vtca Season 2017/18 & 2018/19

    Westy it was Rat'n'bat who was adamant that CV signoff was required. I don't understand why it would be necessary, I am not sure if it was ultimately necessary, nor on what grounds CV could prevent it even if they had the power.

    Vtca Season 2017/18 & 2018/19

    Agree that having the time and the inclination is necessary and not everyone has either let alone both. It's just strange that the situation persists when there is so much criticism of the incumbents. That sort of disquiet usually motivates someone to challenge but seems not the case in the...
