Kangaroos

Ben is that a full or half alliament

What's the latest for the Roos, I keep hearing that Frankston will take them but never hear anything even close to official, or not a decent source. I think the roos are in big trouble.

North so far has been the Murray Kangaroos, full alignment with Port, part alignment with North Ballarat and Tassie. 2008 ?? Onslaught can you start a poll for this. Murray Kangaroos Albury Kangaroos Riverina Roos North Melbourne part with North Ballarat and part with Frankston full with North Ballarat part with North Ballarat part as Murray Kangaroos qafl as Gold Coast Kangas part with Southport and part with other QAFL team part with North Ballarat and part with Prahran who rejoins the VFA The last one of course is a pipe dream with Prahran, North Ballarat has stated they won't do a full alignment. Frankston has always been a stand alone. ?? 2008 ??

The only way I can see a Murray Kangaroos revisited is if it is heavily funded by AFLVIC/AFL and is done properly becoming a seperately run organisation and big emphasis placed on the TAC/VFL alignments therefore with the Bushrangers. Other than that, I really hope Frankston hold strong, and I can't see too much else happening, the AFL might push heavily and offer $$ to go to QAFL, but all it is, is another 2nd Tier team really. Wouldn't Prahran be fantastic (we can all dream can't we) actually I was out at Prahran way the other day and went for a walk around Toorak Park at lunchtime, geez it bought back some memories, I would love to see VFL footy back there. I really can't see Nth Melbourne coming back, and I don't think the AFL would offer as much assistance of that type of thing.

I personally hope teams like Frankston and North Ballarat stick to there guns and leave the Kangaroos out in the cold. This will teach them a lesson for being so arrogant in the past and not believing that the VFL is a valuable vehicle. They had no respect for what Port Melbourne were trying to achieve as a 100 year old club and Werribee is now aware of similar issues. If players are AFL listed, this does not guarentee them games of VFL seniors. There are plenty of VFL listed players who are better players than young AFL draftees. Good luck Kangaroos. This is why you dont burn your bridges...You cant come back across!!!

Perfectly summed up Burraburger,this gets more intriguing by the day.

I have been told that Frankstons newsletter to members this week said Brian Mace has said Frankston will be stand alone 2008. Hope this is true. Also the Kangaroos problem is why i believe the A.F.L are keen on controling the V.F.L, they will just tell teams like Frankston to merge or get out, be afraid be very afraid.

That's the way it looks to me too, Ozybeer. I'm afraid!

The old VFA clubs must stick strong and do not let these AFL vultures have more control than they should. Do net let them have full control under any circumstances. I would not think a guy like Saultry would. Saults would give them a tongue lashing they desereve. I also think Mace would get stuck into them. Werribee standing alone is a step in the right direction. Good on you bees and may you have a good season in 2008. I would love Port, Frankston, Werribee, Tassie and North Ballarat all stand alone and to all have good years in 2008. I would also like to see Geelong and Collingwood riddled with injuries and struggle big time. In otherwords I am pro VFA and would not give a shit on AFL vutlures and cronies like Demetriou !!!
