Correct.

You are better off with out him. Get a kid in there that wants to be there

If the cows get their way does it mean that they will enforce the rule onto their top up players? Double standards much? Blokes that work during the day train in the evening and play 2 games in 24 hours are ok but blokes who play the game as their full time job must have 5 days between games. Soft Cocks springs to mind.....

with the crows playing tonight, is there any chance that carey will play for echunga??

Was told during the week that crows top up players can play for their home club on the same weekend as they are not contracted to the crows but play for them under a permit but if a player plays for an SANFL (not Port obviously) club they can't play for their grassroots club on the same weekend as they are contracted to the SANFL club.
What a bunch of hypocrites those AFL wankers are! Bitch and complain that their precious AFL players must have a 6 day break between matches but let their non professional players helping them out play 2 games in 24 hours.

slow day if the best discussion we can come with is the rise and fall of the bloody Wiggles [emoji38]

Very important part of the formative years of pretty much any Aussie kid born after around 1997.
I would drag that back to 1990......as a mid 80's kid I despised these people.......

Is he also on loan and are Noarlunga paying a percentage of his match payments? This isn't the EPL you nuffies.....

Does anyone remember the MATS Plan?

It would've been expensive, but it would have been well worth it, even if only 2/3 of it was put in place.

Probably would have solved some of our current traffic problems though.....

Ohh good on Sturt for their comments and their proactively re match day experience but if they were struggling on field I can bet their numbers at matches and after would suffer as do all struggling clubs.
Well at least they are making hay whilst the sun shines.......with good on field performances can hopefully translate people sticking around when they are maybe not performing on the field.

Where the problem now lies is with the two bastard children of the league dragging the rest of the competition down.

Yes I got to Darwin! But I'm back 'down south' as the locals call it now......flew home on the 2.20am flight Sunday Morning worst time to catch a flight ever :shock:


Didn't go here but did something similar at Mataranka and went to Darwin via Litchfield National Park. Did have a beer at the Berry Springs pub though :)

Clarke won toss and bats

That is something you see in backyard cricket

Come on mate you wouldn't throw your wicket away like that in backyard cricket it's runs for days

Good cricket England I say. Bring on Ali, get Warner to lose his concentration and 'buy' a wicket. Well done. We were outsmarted again !


Every punter on their couch back in Australia wasn't outsmarted ;)

A News Limited journalist is reporting on Twitter that an announcement regarding Dangerfield could be this week....

I just dont get what clubs fear about this proposal. Surely no club wants to pay players do they? Its only done because its become an accepted practice under the assumption that if a club doesnt spend money, they wont be succesful. Sure its questinable how well such a thing can be enforced properly so that competition is fair, but given how player payments have ballooned in recent years, clubs should be relieved that their is perhaps a circuit breaker.
We are semi-professional clubs. There is no harm in rewarding our achievers. Maybe there should be no money in sport at all.
If you are semi professional clubs then you should have no issues paying funds into players nominated super funds and withhold the appropriate amount of tax and issue payment summaries at the end of each financial year......

Jimmy "Bloody" Jeggo... only has one gear...

Reverse... first thought is to always go backwards...

Was great to be at the game... my lads a mad Liverpool fan so he was stoked...

I wore my Bradford City shirt though...
Yep Jeggo is a friggin nightmare. Has no instinct to take the game on, first pass is always backwards


ah so its not just me the casual soccer watcher that is stunned that this bloke is paid to play this game :shock:

Think it is time to pull the trigger with Haddin, he cost us dearly in Cardiff then circumstances conspired against him to allow a replacement. The replacement did very well.

A country footballer goes to his club 6 times a week get your hand off it gentlemen that is the very reason they are playing country football because they can't be arsed putting in a commitment....

Corporate box at Edgbaston come at me

Also that means I have a ticket to sell....

Super pleased to report live on the 45 bus to the ground a slightly cloudy day with sunshine and an expected top of 18 degrees.

If he was in form then yes he probably should have come back in regardless of what Nevill did. But he wasn't and his replacement performed.

Feck me we have a middle order that couldn't muster 100 runs between them and they are bitching about an out of form good bloke

Best coach in the league IMO

would certainly agree with that. 8)

:shock: Remind me again. How many premierships has he won?

Not saying he's a good coach - but best in the league!


Don't think you can define premierships as a KPI for coaching credentials. FFS some of those Glory years Centrals teams didn't need a coach.....


I think Brad extracts the most out of what playing stock at his disposal. He took a team from near the bottom and played in a Preliminary final (all things being equal they played well enough to make the GF). No longer the Easy beats and they have clawed back respect from opposition sides.

The Poms could well spank us and make it 4-1 but if we get on top early I won't be surprised if they fold ala Lords and we win in under 4 days. Surely the boys will want to send Pup off the right way.

A few things of interest in this Test which is hard to get myself up for after losing the Ashes with the abysmal 4th test effort...

1) Pups last test. I have always loved the guy and will watch every ball he faces in his last two knocks. Hopefully he keeps me awake til the wee hours
2) Who fights and saves their test careers
3) What new blood gets a crack. I would play MMarsh and Cummo. Nothing to lose.
4) Who else officially retires at the Tests conclusion. Haddin, Rogers?
5) Watching Wato carry the drinks :lol:


The form and confidence of our middle order doesn't look good on paper. FFS they spudded up against a mid table County Div 2 side :roll:

Out comes the sun.
Out comes the BOOBS :).


are you calling a Tit Monday???



Tit Monday:

This put it best. I didn't write it, for those who thought I did but i'll claim it if you want me to:

"Ah, Tit Monday. It's not that far off now...

That glorious day when, heading into work on the bus, or sitting on the train, you find yourself suddenly chirpier than you have been in months. You find yourself smiling at strangers again. There is a mild involuntary tumescence in your trousers that comes and goes throughout the morning with the comforting regularity of a heartbeat.

And then you get a text around lunchtime from a mate which says: "At last, Tit Monday!" And you instantly understand why you are so happy. For Tit Monday is that special day in the year when, for the first time, the temperature rises above that magical point which causes girls getting dressed in the morning to decide to show a bit of skin.

After months of dull colours and chunky knit, the world's birds suddenly dive into last summer's wardrobe (they've not had chance to buy this season's stuff) and chuck it on without a thought. Your urban landscape is suddenly lightened with acres of naked arm and leg and, after many dark months of burrowing, breasts rising to the surface like moles at dusk.

Big breasts in white work shirts straining at the buttons. Small breasts braless in vest tops, the nipples frotted by ribby fabrics. Breasts in summer dresses bouncing in the distance so that they catch your eye before you even notice there is someone wearing them. Breasts nudging out from the crowd at traffic islands, quivering to cross the road...

And you know it is nearly summer. For previous generations, the arrival of spring was heralded by the sound of the first cuckoo. For us, it is Tit Monday.

Not that it always falls on a Monday. Like Easter, Tit Monday is a moveable feast.

And then, of course, there is Tit Monday Night. You see, in early summer, temperatures drop off very dramatically when night falls. But the dollies are not prepared. Slightly stunned by the morning heat, they drag out the summer clothes but forget to bring a cardie (a mistake they will not make again until next year), so that when they're all standing outside the pub after work celebrating the arrival of spring, their barely covered nipples have no protection from the cold. It's like a Bring-and-Buy sale where everyone has brought hat pegs. It's like a prog-rock gig where, instead of lighters, everyone is holding up nipples.

So when will Tit Monday fall this year? Will you be the first to text your mates with the announcement? Do not shoot your bolt too early. There will be false starts. You will smell fresh cut grass and see a couple of early starters and feel compelled to declare Tit Monday. But your more level-headed friends will tell you to hold your horses, keep your powder dry, don't fire until you see the whites of their bra straps.

As the poet said: one bold Northern slapper in a bikini doth not a summer make."

Surely that is questionable?

WTF are they complaining about? Stokes could have still ducked and made his ground without stretching his arm away from his body. Correct decision made.

If he was struck on the body then he is taking evasive action and would have been given not out.

I tend to agree, but there are plenty of tradesman and what not at those clubs with traditionally lower socio-economic demographics.

So at Unley it might be that the Junior Lawyer makes Partner, at Mitchell Park it might be that the bricky gets the sub division.

I love that Unley is stereotyped as the team full of lawyers! @Jetters.... Thoughts?

How does that compensate the existing clubs for allowing 2 bastard children into the competition?

The sale of Football Park has absolutely nothing to do with this issue. That transaction compensates them from the sale of an investment made 40 plus years ago.

What's the essay on? I'm sure the collective wisdom of FootySA could come up with a few choice phrases to work into the text... 8)

only 1500 words to go

So as mentioned on the Div 1 forum there is a strong rumour going around that Gary McIntosh is taking the reins at Hope Valley for season 2016.
Apparently Jarman on the Rush Hour started the rumour... Not sure if you could believe anything that came out of Andrew Jarmans mouth...
Jarman taking the piss surely....
It was actually Darren Berry who mentioned it on the radio show Saturday morning
Which Chuck would have been set up by Jars.....not sure if Chuck knows who Macca is?
