Yep down to seven teams, I don't think anyone has got within 100 points of bully yet, so you'd think they'll try go to the north central again, leaving 6 clubs, not sure you can have a league with 6 clubs

A big man with a big heart. Will be sadly missed
Will be missed by the quamby community, wasn't the rumour that he used to fly a plane form quamby to Moorabbin each Saturday to play for the saints
Good to see quamby cause the upset of the year for Jim Wallis

Any reason why Stiles hasn’t been playing?

Talking to some Macorna locals. He missed one with illness. He and his brother didn’t turn up last week
Is he living locally still?

Pretty sure he has been living in Echuca all season.
The Coach didn't turn up to the game? Is he still Coaching them?
He's kicked some big bags, he'd be a 3 pointer, with macorna not making finals, has he got an offer from over Echuca way, not a great look if it's true for a coach to leave and not show up to a game

You would be spewing if you were macorna with the cash they have paid for him to just up and leave

It would be hard to see how he could. Scott Wishart has coached the last 2 games

Macorna are sitting 5th, one game behind Wandella. Every chance to finish 4th.
They won't without stiles will they? The guy from Mansfield, the tac cup midfielder and Stiles wouldn't be cheap
Although Jim Morrison is longer with us, will the golden rivers see the daws live in action for the rest of the year

Is there a reason for this? I just checked the ladder and they are comfortably sitting 2nd and probably the only contender to upset the Nullawil apple cart. Usually when clubs shut up shop it’s due to numbers and poor on field performances- this doesn’t look to be the case. Can someone fill us in. Cheers

Poor numbers and I don’t think they have any juniors. It was also mentioned they just don’t have the volunteers to run the club anymore.
Also hearing about the money some of these clubs have been throwing at borderline CMFL senior players and getting knocked back is a really worry.
No juniors, the stress and pressure of trying to consistently raise the required funds to recruit as is needed to stay competitive. Lack of volunteers adds up. It’s unfortunate a merger couldn’t have been negotiated with another club but these are the times we are now in
Good to see them go out on a high though, they'll play finals, great to see Tim free, quambys best local player coach them in their last year

Can someone please post the article says for us interstaters?
What do people think the odds are of the league taking its final bows in a fortnight?
Whether the league disbands or not will decide whether we see as many as 15 clubs looking for a new home in either the Loddon Valley, North Central, Heathcote District, Picola District and Kyabram leagues either during the off-season or in 2024.

Not much talk going on about what the other clubs are planning to do going forward. I would say they will play with 6 clubs next year and that will be the end.
