2012 Wooden Spoon favourites

Postby Sky Pilot » Sun Jul 01, 2012 6:33 pm

In most country leagues there are perhaps eight or nine minor round games to go before finals. How many comps have a runaway spoon favourite at the minute?
Poking my nose out a tad... but Jamestown-Peterborough (0-9) seems to have the Northern Areas spoon wrapped up unless BMW (3-6) slips in with a few more fade-outs. In the North Eastern league there is a log jam at the bottom and too early to call. North Clare (1-9), BSR (2-8) and Eudunda-Robertstown (2-8) are front runners. Would be interested to read other league forecasts.

In the Barossa, you would say it is a battle between Gawler Centrals (1-8) and Angaston (1-8). They are both trying to catch the seventh placed Freeling (3-6).

In the Kowree-Naracoorte-Tatiara league it'd be between us and Kingston. Both only one win for the year.

No
Kersbrook 64.33.417
Callington 0.0.0
Score Breakdown
Q1 16.6
Q2 14.13
Q3 23.7
Q4 11.7
Backed off in the last quarter obviously.
23 goals in a quarter which im guessing are 20m plus time on, you do the maths

It's tough to think how Cally players feel.

We're pretty down in the dumps right now but nowhere near that level.

Callington might aswell play 21 on the ground, plus spectators

Would be interesting to see what actually happens at a Callington game.

Is there any resistance at all? do they lay tackles/spoil the ball. Maybe drop one or two back in defense.

Should put all 18 in defence. They haven't scored many goals for 3 years, so they might as well make the opposition work hard through 18 players to score against them.

Back on topic. YPFL - Ardrossan haven't won a game and Cougars have won 1. Think the spoon will be given to one of them

I'm thinking we should design a pre-season series where all the wooden spooners from the previous year could play a round robin carnival. At least half of them could go into their respective seasons with a win under their belts. Confidence is a wonderful thing - I ought to know after four-putting the sixth at Port Augusta on Thursday!

Does PL footy really need the Tigers, after last years efforts I'd say no. It's a bye anyway, might as well just call the day off and go fishing!![/quote]

Jamestown-Peterborough plunged to new depths on Saturday, beaten by Crystal Brook 38.20 to 7.8. Dan Hill kicked a lazy 14 for the Brookies. Wooden spoon challenger BMW fared slightly better, losing 23.13 to Southern Flinders 23.13. So I think J-P can inscribe its name on the spoon.
