Camplin from Two Wells apparently has a hammy and was carrying the drinks on the weekend, which was a bonus for the magpies. Also, Mitch Sandery from United, after his ANZAC Medal winning performance in Round 1, has not been sighted since. Is he injured MC?
He played almost half a game against Balak. Strained something in his leg when he had to jump the fence and collect the ball after a point. Should be right soon.
Just on that though, what are peoples thoughts of the league supplied umps? I think its good in theory, however they won't fetch the balls after a point. When clubs supplied boundary umpires this was something that the umpires always did. Now the clubs are also paying extra $$ to have these extra umpires.
My view is they are doing less of a job (not collecting balls) and costing clubs more money.
