Re: Western Region Football League team
i met Tim Berzins through a mate about 12 months ago. seemed like a half decent bloke when i first him and i went along to watch a few games of my mates in which Berzins played in his team.
I dont think ive ever seen a softer player in my life, agree with ur assesment Beazer that he should play in a womans team and doesnt get near the ball.
on top of his terrible football ability i then went out with him and my mate about 6 months ago and Berzins honestly thought he was Brad Pitt. trying to pick up woman everywhere, i think he forgot he is only 3ft tall and looks like he has down syndrome. i also know a few more of his teammates who have told me he is a serial pest that irratates everyone.
anyway seeing as i saw his name i thought id have my two cents worth.

Re: Western Region Football League team
can any of the port colts people tell me how they put there hands out and took half the money from the a.f.l which should of all been for south districts for danny jacobs seen he'd played all his juniors for south? seems a bit rich to me and a cheap money grab for a self professed well respected club

Re: Western Region Football League team
Being a colt's person,unsure of the a.f.l. handout you are on about,yes you were Danny's junior club and would already should have received your a.f.l grant,what are you expecting a payment for him finishing a.f.l ..

Re: Western Region Football League team
for being drafted, playing 1st,50th and hundredth the colts received half the payment they kept that pretty quiet maybe because its a pretty poor effort. so read the whole post bloods you pillow biter
Re: Western Region Football League team
Port Colts received no money from the afl for danny jacobs....so take your crap somewhere else.....all you ever do is bag the colts or me.......you must be one sad lonely soul....if your not let us know who you are so we can have a proper conversation about your concerns

Re: Western Region Football League team
are you 100% maybe ask one of your previous committees for clarification on this issue because you would have to agree pretty ordinary wouldn't you?
Re: Western Region Football League team
I know, that it comes from danny who gets the money.he is the one that nominates what club, so if he did well so be it but i find it highly unlikely.
We would be silly to knock it back and if we did well now danny can get some of it back by playing with us......Personally i think south should have got it all but if he did nominate colts also, i also think we would be mad to knock it back.

Re: Western Region Football League team
yeah actually went down to have a look today stayed for first 3 quarters then it was to cold and wet so left.
very scrappy game of football hard to pick any good players really as of the weather. the highlight or lowlight i should say was number 1 for diamond creek appearing to snap his leg in half in a contest and screaming in pain for a very long time...horrible to see and bad timing on the eve of their 2008 season.
at 3 quarter time hoppers led by about 6 goals.

Re: Western Region Football League team
not nominated by jacobs actually fought for by your club because of him signing a clearance to play there played one quarter of a practice match broke his arm and went straight back to the districts i may be mistaken but if the districts did it to the colts they would be the lowest dogs of all time in the colts eyes
Re: Western Region Football League team
There is some truth in what you are saying, however our club fought for nothing and received nothing.
There were some at the club that thought the colts may have been entitled to it and that danny may nominate the colts but 100% the colts got zero $$$$$ and that's the way it should be.
Danny was a south districts junior and that's where learnt the game and developed with the help of that club and that's where it all should have gone and that's where it did go....end of story
I also played at districts and will always have a soft spot for them and love to see them do well and i think most of the colts boys are like that,all the animosity between the clubs from the 70's 80's has gone between the current playing list.
I really wonder about your constant colts potting and bagging myself, you must one jealous and bitter person...if your not let us all know who you are and what your motive is.......i have an idea who you are but confirm it for me......

Re: Western Region Football League team
Lovely little snippet on Page 28 of the Herald Sun Today (Punchlines). Its an invitation from Bones McGhie for all footballers to come and join West Footscray - AND BE PAID FOR IT!!!!!
Also mentions that West has "700 paid up members as well as FINE FACILITIES"
Classic stuff that.
700 paid up members hahahaha.
FINE FACILITIES

Re: Western Region Football League team
Mate I wounld'nt give this jerk any more time than you already have. I doubt he is even from districts. Even if there is some truth to his post, it is no ones business apart from those concerned. The post recks jealousy and in typical fashion, the better the colts look the more bitter he becomes.
If I were a betting man, I would put my money on one of the Starbuck frequent sippers.

Re: Western Region Football League team
Interesting read in the local Werribee Banner this week - the gun journo Diamond is doing well
Rivalries add spice to an intriguing season ahead
Big grab: Hoppers Crossing's Tyren Montebruno takes a top mark over his Glenorden opponent last season. Picture: Andrew Kelly
RIVALRIES are what make local football fans so passionate and effervescent in the outer.
Just the lead-up to a match against a team which is your club's arch nemesis is like a grand final, even though it could be just a middle-of-the-season fixture. There are times when your tensions just boil over; when you yell something out so ridiculous that you immediately, or later, think 'why did I say that?'
The umpires are usually the first to be ridiculed. Then come the opposition players. It could be just the slightest characteristic of a player, such as his haircut or the way he wears their socks or it could be invoked by a raging bump or tackle fromthe opposition.
This season. the rivalries in Wyndham are building in two leagues - Hoppers Crossing versus Glenorden in the Western Region Football League and Werribee Amateurs versus Old Westbourne in the Victorian Amateur Football Association.
The hatred between Hoppers Crossing and Glenorden is starting to creep up on the Richter scale.
Something is about to erupt.
The Warriors are level-headed about it. They know they're successful and they know they will start as hot favourites this season to defeat the former division two premiers once again.
But one word about the Warriors at Heathdale Oval and the Hawks will cringe.
It is the one motivating factor that has all the Hawk players gunning for more this season.
They want to become as fearless and intimidating as the Warriors.
You see it on the training track.
One night at Werribee South beach, the Warriors players ran past the Hawks players' training.
There was a certain feeling there that you either love 'em or hate 'em.
Some Hawks' players stood there with a certain glint in their eyes, half admiration and half desolation.
Former Hoppers player Glenn McGaw is coach of the Hawks and knows what the Warriors are all about.
He could be the man to bridge the gap between the two this season or next.
The Hawks had a steady season last year, impressing in their final match against St Albans and providing some shining lights in their first season in division one. Now, they are ready to build and aim for finals contention.
They have several top recruits, including the Russo brothers Adrian, Justin and Josh, Michael Franklin (Wyndham Vale) and Dean Chandler (Yarraville-Seddon).
Hoppers Crossing, in many respects, has the list to go all the way this season.
The on-field losses of coach Michael Frost and assistant Keenan Reynolds will hurt it.
But it has an abundance of youth that are promising and tremendously talented.
The additions of former player Chris Barry (Donvale), former Western Bulldogs player Brad Murphy (Red Hill), Shannon Downey (Red Hill) and Doug Thomas (Werribee Tigers) will certainly help fill the void.
The Warriors have also added Chris Moody (Darley) and Wyndham Vale Falcons pair Aaron Chavasse and John Drohomirecki.
Old Westbourne is chasing its second consecutive VAFA flag after being promoted from division D3 to D2 this season.
But maybe its biggest moment will come when it takes on Werribee Amateurs, a team which has had bragging rights in recent years to be the top amateur team in Wyndham.
Similarly to Hoppers Crossing and Glenorden, the gap could gradually be closing between the two, with the Warriors confident they can be a finals contender this season.
The two coaches behind the teams - Fab Gatti (Old Westbourne) and Kirk Norton (Werribee Amateurs) - are two passionate men who will be looking to get one up on each other come May 10 at Westbourne School Ground.
Old Westbourne is struggling for numbers in its under-19 and junior teams.
Call Ivan Board, 97493808 if you're interested in sporting the Warrior jumper.
Werribee will face Williamstown in the VFL in the season opener this Saturday at Bartercard Oval in a mouth-watering clash.
When you talk rivalry, there is none hotter than the battle of the west.
The rivalry has heated up this season with the Western Bulldogs crossing from the Tigers to arch nemesis, the Seagulls.
The Tigers finally settled on a partial alignment with North Melbourne.
But what hurts the Tigers even more is the Seagulls snaring the recruits they had on the top of their shopping list.
Former AFL-listed players Callum Urch and Matthew Little signed on at rival Williamstown even though they were offered similar contracts at Werribee.
Get set for a back to the '80s affair that is not to be missed.
Wyndham Vale Falcons have had the most controversial pre-season of the Wyndham clubs.
The Falcons axed Stephen Fletcher just three months after he was appointed coach of the team in what has become a recurring theme at Honour Reserve in recent times.
It was all looking downhill with a massive player exodus similar to the Werribee Centrals last year.
Nathan Evans is now at the helm. He has stated he will have former AFL players David Rhys-Jones and Simon Minton-Connell in mentoring roles, which is sure to attract new players and sponsors.
In February, the numbers at training were lucky to reach eight or nine. Now they have no fears of fielding a team and will be looking to cause some heartache for other division two teams.
Werribee Centrals are adamant they can return to its glory days when teams so often feared to play them in the Geelong and District Football League. The Centurions are strategically placed to have a top season this year after what was a shock introduction to coaching for Cori Andrews last year.
The Centrals, like the Falcons this year, faced an exodus of stars last season, only managing to put in some competitive performances to keep them from the bottom of the ladder.
Craig Hardingham is a massive recruit for the Centurions.
The former Winchelsea ruckman will give the Centurions on-ball division a big boost.
Other recruits are Luke Redpath (Epping), Jack O'Brien (Wyndham vale), Anthony Kitchen (Winchelsea), Matthew Rudd (Geelong West-St Peters), Dale Collins (YCW), Damien Galle (Wyndham vale), Steve Wallace (Wyndham vale) and Shane Tobin (Barwon Heads).
Joel Anderson and Daniel Kretschmer are the only two departures.
TAB Sportsbet's new premiership betting for the GDFL has Werribee Centrals at seventh favourite at at $11 to win the flag.
Corio is favourite, closely followed by East Geelong and Thomson.
Point Cook will field its first under-18 team this season in the Western Region Football League.
Signifying their growth in the league, the Bulldogs have had great success with their junior teams and are hopeful of fielding a senior team in division two next season.
The Point Cook Football Club was established in 2003 and was introduced in the WRFL in 2004.
Last year, it fielded 12 junior teams and this year it will field up to 15 including an under-18s team.
Steve Foss will coach the new under-18 team.
Western Jets had a flying start to the season last year before being brushed aside by North Ballarat in an elimination final.
But the Jets believe they can build on that finals berth and go another couple of steps further this year.
Top-aged forward Nick DiMartino said: "Without trying to spruik, we have got a very decent list. They made the first final last year and I think we've got the capability to push on from that."
Under new coach Steve Kretiuk, the Jets have high hopes this season with several draft prospects on its list of 48.
Former Werribee Juniors player Mitchell Banner will be looking to back up his outstanding season last year which saw the bottom-aged draft prospect win the Barry Round Medal, the Jets' best and fairest award.
Smell that liniment, the fresh paint around the boundary lines and the sweat and tears from pre-season hit-outs. Footy's back.
