Just an honest question from a long time GSFL follower, why doesn’t PlayHQ show clubs points in this comp.

Agree the lack of transparency is concerning.

Probably because of the heat coming of this forum circa 2021

Sad isn’t it

Surely the Victor score today is a misprint. 329 to 1

Round 4 saw predictable results with the BIGGEST surprise being E Bay winning with a score of only 4 - 7
Surprisingly that was enough to defeat Compass who only managed 3 - 7 Hard to imagine such a low scoring match in ideal conditions i'm assuming? Surely that's one of the lowest winning scores in A Grade on record ?

Yank looked to have the Creeks measure as they got out to 13 point lead half way through the 3rd quarter but from that point on the rest of the match was played in the Creeks forward half. They made hard work of scoring goals tho as they missed half a dozen set shot sitters but wernt being punished by Yank who only managed 1 inside 50 entry in the last term for a solitary behind to go down by 30 points.

McLaren easily accounted for Strath by 65 points

Myp/Sellicks piled more pain upon Willunga by inflicting their 4th defeat on the trot, this time by 56 points.

Victor by 328 over GPE which comes as no surprise unfortunately and there has to be genuine concerns over GPE whether they can prove to be somewhat competitive for the rest of the season. Results like this achieve nothing. No easy answers obviously

General observations are that the overall standard of the league has dropped a bit.
Having only seen 1 game im guessing here
Victor improved ?
McLaren same ?
Myp/Sell same ?
E Bay same ?
Compass same ?
Creeks weaker
Strath weaker
Willunga way way weaker
Yank improved ?
GPE Weaker

Only 3 flag Chances - Victor, McLaren, Myp/Sel

Tipping Compass & Bays to fill 4th and 5th

Willunga, Creek, Strath 6th - 8th

Yank 9th

GPE wont win a game

Round 5 guesses

Victor by 46 over Compass
Bays by 146 over GPE
Myp/Sel by 47 over Strath
McLaren by 71 over Yank
Willunga by 27 over Creek

Looks like looking for a new coach so early into the season is the next problem for them

[wenchbarwer]

What's the issue with GPE? They were in a similar boat to Elizabeth a few years ago, before the merger I reckon. Nothing seems to have changed besides the club's name.

[field of dreams]

Interestingly, I heard the players loved the coach….

5/5 coming up for you FOD

Creek team selected i must say would be comfortably the weakest on paper i've seen for them for the past 25 years.
Not surprising with the amount of talent they've lost from last year and now copping injuries including ruckman Cole who has been going well. In time some of the young ones blooded will become very good A Graders so not all's lost but the honeymoon period for Galbraith is over and wins i suspect may be hard to find for the rest of the season.
Willunga in a similar boat it seems as well which is very unusual for these 2 powerhouse teams of the last 25 years to be in at the same time.

Heard a rumour today that at least one GPE walked out of the game last week at half time as hadn't been paid from the week before and wasn't given any guarantees of being paid again. ???
Cant imagine there's a quick fix for GPE and huge losing margins look here to stay. unfortunately

3 x 100+ point floggings, GSFL used to be the most competitive league is the state, starting to the way of the SFL?

VH percentage 82.19% is obscene.

Certainly a concerning trend developing but over time there are always going to be some seasons for any leagues where this will happen.

I'd say in recent times the GSFL has been very competitive with teams ranked 7 - 8 often pushing the top ranked teams and if not beating them were were only going down by smallish margins
This year as i've mentioned before has seen traditionally strong teams like Willunga, Creek and to a lesser extent Strath suffer huge player losses / turnovers and are significantly weaker than in recent seasons whilst Clubs like Victor in particular along with Myp/Sellicks continue to get stronger which has seen a large gap open up.
So it now seems we have 3 teams in VH, Myp/Sell and McLaren well ahead of E.Bay, Compass, Creek, Strath, Willunga & Yank all competitive with each other whilst GPE are struggling big time and are gonna take a while to get back up and running.

I wouldn't expect for this to stay the trend in years to come as Clubs i've mentioned in the 2nd tier certainly have shown they dont stay down for long and for the exception of Yank have all won Premierships in the last 10 years.
I guess the 1 positive is that the teams that are now dominating like Victor and Myp/Sell have had long Premiership droughts so its good to see different clubs than the usuals having their turn at the top.

Anyone else really feeling for willunga staring down the barrel of 0-6 start and possibly out of the finals for the first time in probably 30 years….nah me neither

Time to fire up the HFL/SFL/GSFL mega league rumour again?

Will never happen until HFL & SFL have netball & football playing at the same venues

[Killa]

I hear Shillabeer applied for the GPE coaching role last year and was unsuccessful as they were looking for a recent retired SANFL player/Coach. I guess that is Mypo’s gain and GPE loss.

[field of dreams]

Well they haven’t received the level of publicity as Elizabeth, but it has prompted some to stand up and join the committee and football department. [emoji1360]
