Interesting...ORFFL started as a reptile league. Possibly something philosoraptor can enlighten us about.

Those were the days, back in the Cretaceous Period of Fantasy Football.
We were primitive in our methodology so our even our advanced philosophies are worthless today.
As long as you had the Captain firmly planted on Robert Harvey and Shaun Rehn/Matthew Burton in the ruck you were set. </blockquote>

Yes, well it would seem that the role of ORFFA is to provide feed and medicine to those reptiles.

Alright awesome. Venus Bay Vulchers it is!

Let me know if I'm in and when the draft is when you can Thanks</blockquote>

Nice to see another Eyre Peninsula/West Coast town/place enter the ORFFL spin-off league.
Venus Bay is a lovely place full of nice sized, tasty KG Whiting along with the odd Snapper - just need to watch out for the Great Whites that frequent the area thanks to their fondness of seals which are also plentiful in the area.

One word of warning though Fitzy, any ORFFA teams visiting your home ground will expect mountainous seafood platters being put on at the post-game functions - with the current price of quality fresh South Oz seafood, it's best to take on board some of the local commercial fishermen as club sponsors to ensure you can cater for the voracious appetites of said visiting teams!!!

 

I concur with Kel unless the ORFFA can work out how to draft quickly through deadlocks, they will be waiting until round 11 to start.

I'd suggest round 8 will probably be pushing it, but who knows what this new group of committed punters are able to accomplish. I mean, an association formed in a day? What else is beyond them?

 

ahhh the vultures, brings back fond memories of my old basketball team growing up, the vermont vultures

That other mob already have a Mount Buggery team. Pretty disappointing though they are. Do some homework.
Does "FarKew" qualify as a place? Don't particularly fancy the urban idea. Australia is a big place. </blockquote>

Ah, the fudgenuts. Our arch nemesis.

Winning year in year out in the Mount Buggery Regional League (MBRL), with their rugged good looks, pearly smile and immaculate work on the footy field, it was only a matter of time til they moved on to bigger and better things.

Funny story by the way, when accepting entries into the ORRFL, it was quite strange that the Fudgenuts representative never made it to ORRFL HQ with their entry form. Seems that, for some reason, while on the way to HQ, he decided, probably a little stressed from the whole thing, that it would be a good time to take a break, roll his car into a lake and spend the next week in a relaxation hogtie a couple of clicks off the Hume.

Strange fellow that one.</blockquote>

Given our distaste for the other, dare I say it, inferior team in the MBRL. The MBFC executive committee have made a decision to up stumps and move to an area previously thought to be the denizens of charlatans, cut throats and snake oil distributors.

However the region of Black Charlie's Opening has indeed proven ripe for the pickings, and with some careful list management, the application of beer tinted eyewear and a liberal application of lubricant, the Black Charlie's Opening Spelunkers have been formed, and wish to submit an amended application to the ORRFA for admission to the competition.
