How many arguing this isn't a footy-related story posted on the Liam Jurrah threads?
If I saw an untitled link in a thread started about Jurrahs court case and it was entitled "Former Demons player Liam Jurrah acquitted of charges in NT" I probably wouldn't be surprised if it was about his court case as opposed to an untitled link in a thread started to discuss who's coaching Glenelg in 2014.

Easy solution to avoid confusion as already suggested, put a small summary of what the link entails. I don't think that's asking too much?
Absolutely. If I see another link without a description I'm going to F***en lose it. :D

pafc1870 aka RustyCage has had his best ever SuperCoach season and this is one of two lower grade Grand Finals that he will be participating in this weekend. While I reckon the Cage is a good chance to beat Joker in Divvy VI I'm not so sure about him beating the Pool Swimmers. And who are these Pool Swimmers I don't hear you ask? Well, buggered if I know as I only have 'Okie's mate' written in my spreadsheet so if I could work out who the bloody hell Okie is then we'll all be on a winner LOL.

Well, whoever the dude is he sure as shit has a bloody good SuperCoach side. If Steve Johnson misses as expected, then he has Adam Cooney as a handy replacement. The Cage will be looking at Miles or Aish this weekend so Cooney would probably be a comparable scorer than those two players against the opposition they are up against this weekend.

There isn't much red in the Cage lineup but there appears to be a few 'mid pricers' and overall they don't stack up that well against the Pool Swimmers. My tip is the Pool Swimmers to win the flag despite RustyCage's habit of being a giant killer in the latter part of the season.

Even Nick Stevens?

Maybe the majority of pity here should be with the person he assaulted.

I'm not offering pity, but I think it is sad for him that he's descended to this level.
I think it is sad for him that he had no other way of communicating with his partner other than by violence or threats. And it is sad that he joins an ignominious list of men who have hit women.
It is not sad that he has been caught. And it will not be sad that he is punished.

Yep, but it's missing a digit

How do you know they're not going to sack him immediately?
You have to make sure all your processes are in place before doing so.
I know it's popular to have a crack at clubs for the sake of it, but give them a chance to get the job done right.

Next year I'm off to England and Europe for a few weeks to watch the Ashes. Might be a fair gap in the coverage towards the ends of the season.

For the life of me I can't recall who the Golden Fleece are but whoever they are they are top of the pile after smashing the Ingle Farm Felons in the Hogg III opener. If round one scores are anything to go by this could be a very close league. No one got to 2200 and only FootyLedgens with 1861 really bottomed out so I won't be trying to write too many preview posts for this league. One thing about Divvy III is certain though, is that it's a lot harder than Divvy II. wycbloods jnr Liamscrows sailed through Divvy V last year but Liam has already hit the rocks on their second journey against the other junior player in the league SA Rapids. i don't think there are any junior players in the leagues above so these guys are duking it out for the title of best young player in the Hogg this year. 1-0 to rapids so far.

Out of all the top eight sides only Brown Boys could consider himself lucky to be there with some solid scores by the rest of the top 10 teams. Browny will need a lift to stay in the eight but right now he's in. A couple of promoted sides had mixed fortunes in the first round with Modraaaaaa crashing to earth while the UglyDucks took off. UglyDucklings are a team that prepares very thoroughly so look out Divvy III.

Update

Round 12 featured a couple of very close results which will shape the final eight. FootyLegends have come from the outhouse and looking at the penthouse after an eight point win over UglyDucks who are now hoping for a Golden Fleece lost to avoid missing the eight by the slimmest of margins. A desperate Bye squeaked by Some Can't by one point to keep their necks above the relegation zone. Lightning goes well when he is on and I reckon he can grab another win this week and stay up in Divvy III next season. Liamscrows opened the door to the eight for the chasing pack when it defeated Failed Creation by ten points. Creation now has to beat the in form Modra to make the finals this season. I reckon Mods gets the job done there and that the Legends will beat the Felons and take his spot.

The top four teams have all flexed their muscles during the frenzy with Golden Fleece the main casualty. Fleece have been looking good for a top four spot but have slumped in recent weeks. Golden Fleece will be hoping that Ugly Ducks in particular don't salute as the high scoring Zed should finish a puzzling season off with a big win. Some Can't might have gotten rolled last week but I think they might upset the unbeaten ladder leaders in the last round. The Willies are still well clear but other teams appear to have bridged the scoring rate which is all that matters in the last month of the season. I reckon the top four go up and despite a relatively quiet week for Willies they deserve premiership favourtism at this point of the year.

A couple of teams booked their Division IV tickets weeks ago but The Bye have fought hard to get out of the bottom four. Ingle Farm Felons have had their moments this year but not enough of them. FootyLegends form has improved in the second half of the year and they should account for the Felons and sentence them to the drop. Power Rules started the season well but as the year has progressed they've found wins hard to come by. They will be hoping that The Bye can't continue his recent scoring and that they can somehow upset Duromine who have been in very good form recently. I reckon the teams in the bottom four all go down with The Bye to survive in Divvy III.
