SAAFl Div 6 & 6R (2009)

[hawkseye]

BRAHMA lodge to beat Glenunga...........because the Obahmas are awesome and i might be delusional if i say anything positive about their opposition.
MITCHELL PK to beat Central United.........Good win by them last week and will be too good at home.
CLG to beat Hectorville..........i think pretty comfortably, still not convinced with Heccies yet.
PARALOWIE to beat Lockleys........have heard that Lockleys have had a few missing over he last couple of weeks and wont return for a few more.
WEST CROYDON to beat Trinity......at home the hawks to bounce back if Tregeagle and Vessali play.

Geez I think that Div 6 has the biggest case of tall poppy syndrome going around. First everybody bags CLG because they were so cocky because they were winning now they have lost everybody jumps on BL back about being arrogant because they are now top.
I was with Broeny in thinking dodgingandweaving was delusional thinking that hey wil be competitive against BL when they could not beat CU. No matter how many changes BL have I think it will be all one way traffic.

Y do people show up then. You blokes have won one game is that right? So every game you go into, you think you are going to lose if they are above you on the ladder?. Everyone has a chance no matter who the opposition is.

Mate you have to attack every game with a positive attitude. What can raise peoples eyebrows is how your positive attitude comes across. We go into every game to play attacking footy to give ourselves the best chance possible to win.
I was merely stating that it does not take long for people on here to turn there opinions around of the top teams. Its alot easier to talk about your team when you are doing well (as Im sure you guys will be aware of) All the talk on here is about BL because they are doing well and turned things around. If you want to hear about other clubs ask question about them. Most of BL posts have been in response to a post involving them.

[Bigshow82]

p.s I for one quite enjoy hearing about a Northern club doing well after struggling no matter how arrogant it may come across.

But you think its ok to ask if someone is delusional for talking positive about their team?

[dodgingandweaving]

It's bad enough that we're struggling, but to kick us while were down and call us delusional is below the belt. Expect a fired up Glenunga looking to prove you wrong tomorrow.

After I first read it I was thinking the same thing as Browny, but after reading it again though i probably was reading into what was said to much As i said positive talk can sometimes be taken the wrong way.

[hawkseye]

Ok mate

[carey18]

No probs. I just dont like people kicking clubs when they are down when they were in the same spot last season. Long term future is what concerns me.

The thing is most of the guys there now, weren't there last year were they?

SO ARE WE SO STAY THERE....

[carey18]

No mate Brahma Lodge have recruited very well and built a solid team. Hopefully the guys can hang around for a while and build the club up thru the grades. i just dont like kicking other clubs when they are struggling.

Yeah mate, that's what i meant - The new blokes probably didn't experience the tough times that BL went through last year. Must congratulate your captain out at Paralowie for coming over after the game & giving us some advice, telling us to stick together and stick at it - He didn't have to do it, and was very sincere with his sentiments, great for the leader of the club to do that,

[carey18]

Would of been Boothy our A grade captain. Number 25?. He is a great bloke and great player, very good leader of the club

[Browny25]

Look I was never kicking Glenunga down, just merely replying that you were saying you are going to surprise BL tommorow. Now unless you have 21 new guys it aint going to happen... We have had some great games with you guys in the past and I as much as everyone would like to see your club turn it around.

We were in the same position last year (and prior to that) and there were games in which I knew we probably werent going to win, but all i could hope for was at least a competitive effort, discipline, and some structure! We eventually went on to beat Hectorville late in the year who at the time were sitting in the top 3, so stranger things can happen.

I have been at BL for 6 years, so dont start saying otherwise. I've been there in the good (present) and bad times, and wouldnt go anywhere else.

You bagged us out last year for being shit, and now your bagging us out for doing well... Half the reason BL is mentioned on here is because of the numbers we have which use the forum, and responding to half your questions / comments.

Sorry but also you were a fan of us before and now your not so we are arrogant and thugs???

PS - Thanks Bigshow, I'm glad someone knew how to take it.
