Yeah that kid could be anything. Barmera's been a good breeding ground over the past decade for rising stars.

Barmera lost a few but ive heard Chris Bonney is coming back! He will be very handy

Big Geordie back to Berri?

Reckon he will be back next year.

Absolutely loves playing cricket with us and I don't think he will chase the coin this year and will play where his heart has always been.

Top bloke to go with it aswell. Cooks a barby after each cricket game aswell which gives me more incentive to go and watch the B Grade boys!

Geordie always has and will continue to 'chase the coin', suggesting otherwise is being fanciful.

Going on that logic, he should end up at Barmera.

At the end of the day who gives a ****. Money changes hands in country footy, every club does it in the RFL.

Move on.

Have heard that an ex SANFL player and two of his mate that were going to play for Berri next season have pulled the pin already, plus Porter supposedly talking to Renmark, Barmera and Kadina ?

Gary Pfeiler having a little dig at the independents in the Pioneer today. Had to have a bit of a giggle. At least he says what he thinks. I agree with him

I reckon the RFL is crying out for a new team in the comp, there's a real challenge for micro region to get together and put 5 teams up (A-U13's) and ensure that at least they can survive albeit in a different capacity.

[Not Scared]

I agree with that. I reckon the RFL should be looking towards the Mallee for two extra teams though. There are a couple of clubs there struggling and the stronger clubs joining the RFL would make for a vibrant and interesting comp. Travel would still be less than most country leagues.

I reckon you've been on that bandwagon for a few years, NS. What chances do you think there are? And which clubs?

A few years back there was a meeting of Riverland, Independent, Mallee and Mid Murray clubs to talk about the dire situation of player numbers in certain parts of the Murray Mallee region. It was suggested Mallee accept some MM clubs into their league (with some others going to the Indies) and also drop their reserves comp (as so many reserves players come from the city). It was met with total disinterest from the Mallee clubs, they are very proud of their comp (despite all of its concerns). We all know what happened to the MM league as a result.
Five or six years on, it'll be interesting as to how officials feel now.
