Round 12 Tips

GG V Greenies: GG found a bit of form in recent weeks, and with the big fella back seems to have given them a bit more confidence. GG at home
Adel V PAOC: PAOC easily. Adelaide Lutheran found a new low last week losing to NH
NH v Pooraka: In most likely shitty conditions down at Havens, Pooraka to do enough to get the points.
Salisbury West V Fitzroy: Match of the round in my books. Whoever wins here keeps uo with the top 2. Loser starts to mingle with 5th 6th and 7th. Salisbury West too much class in my mind.
CBC V Unley: CBC on their home deck will run riot over an improving Unley. 10 Goals + in my book.

Good Luck to all teams involved!

North Haven 17.11 113 v Pooraka 15.9 99

Ditto - sometimes those football gods can be real ar$eholes

Holy sh!t !!! Good win.

The D4 comp is as unpredictable as ever !!!

North Haven will cause a few more upsets before the year is out and will help shape the finals for some teams.

Time will tell I guess..........they're a chance now to stay in Div 4 though

Having those players back.......plus Wattsy has now played a couple of games and they picked up 1 or 2 other players which has helped. One of the pickups has been really good. Played on the ball on the weekend and kicked 5 goals as well.
And it does take time to gel as a team under a new coach and gameplan.

[catchisthecry]

Karpany (from Pooraka) and Watts dominated against us (AL) last week.
I wouldn't be surprised if they win another couple on the way home...

Karpany and Watts dominated against Pooraka as well...........Karpany has been a good pickup of late.

amber i know im looking a bit far ahead, but IMO sods neck was really on the chopping bloke for next year what is your oppinion on the coaching job next year do you think its his or not?

To be fair to SODS he didn't have much to work with in the first half of the season............he now has a side capable of matching it with most sides so time will tell. If they avoid relegation then he has probably done his job IMO.

thats fair to say
if he can keep them from getting relegated then he has done his job
north haven are in a very similar position to portland back in 06, a huge walk out of A grade players, left with youngsters to play, they stayed up only just, re built and won a premiership 3 years down the track, not saying havens will win a premiership in 3 years but just saying its not all doom and gloom on viccie road!!

Saturday's game will be good then with Waltham and Roo back into the side

[Flipper]

Yes Turk I agree what a disgrace by AM that Iwitnessed also ,he needs to take a long hard look at himself,and as for there facilities they need to be condemned they are a disgrace the showers toilets etc ,and people talk about the college sides facilities these would be the worst I have seen for a long time I amazed SAAFL have not had more complaints ,maybe they need to visit and get these facilities up to standard.Apart from that a great game down to the wire.

Yes I took a trip out to watch the match of the round what a great game ,but would have to agree with Turk and Chief that AM is a disgrace and not setting an example for his younger players,or the GG football club shame on you AM

It's disappointing to hear that the whole football club is being judged on the actions of one person... Next time our 2 sides meet it'd be good to have a beer with you blokes to show you that we aren't all like the impression you get.
Was a great game Saturday, you guys were obviously down in numbers but had a red hot crack all day in another tight and tense match between these sides. Tough, fair and skillful considering the conditions and a great game to watch. Credit to your B's too for having a dip...

GG situation with facilities from everything i have read on here and the even the messenger it seems to be a choice that has been made for them by council and politics. It sounds like something is holding back GG and for the club to combine it growth with more success the facilities are essential. Could it b worse than AL?

I hope the whole coach situation is blown out of the water. The coach is the face and leader of your club. If an opposition coach did that to my club i would struggle to walk into their clubrooms for a beer. But passion is a very good trait to have

[turk186]

Flipper...AL facilities are worse but not by a long way, but as Choccies said its not from lack of effort by the GG footy club, councils and goverment are the real culprits here.

The coach stuff is all true...AM seems to have a real hate for our club and appears to go out of his way to spoil what is a good healthy rivalry between the clubs......passion is one thing, stupidity is just that.

Choccies...we dont judge your club by his antics, we have a very healthy respect for your guys as a playing group... personally I believe that the action of a clubs senior coach has a direct influence on the way a club is percieved.... therefore....

I heard today that he may have been repaying an action that was done to him after Greenies beat GG in the first round

Here is a saying for you mate: Revenge is a dish best eaten cold

[turk186]

I dont think our senior coach would have been involved tho

I think the saying is "revenge is a dish best served cold" - AM obviously has a long history with Greenies (played for them in late 80's) but whatever happened goes on every week - it's called passion!

With AM it's called being an arrogant wank*r!
Always has been, always will be!
