This weeks games...

02:15 PM Pembroke OS v Pooraka Proposed Haslam Oval Pembroke School, 43
02:15 PM Athelstone v Prince Alfred OC Proposed Torrens Valley Oval, 3
02:15 PM Payneham NU v Old Ignatians Proposed Payneham Oval, 49
02:15 PM Flinders Park v Salisbury Proposed Flinders Park Oval, 17
02:15 PM Walkerville v Eastern Park Proposed Walkerville Recreation Ground, 71

My tips...Pembroke OS, Athelstone, Payneham NU, Flinders Park, Walkerville

Some interesting games here...especially for those teams at the middle of the ladder. A win for Flinders Park would also see them push a bit closer to that group of 4.

Also, did anyone see Athelstone coach Tod Barabas on Grassroots last night? I thought the interview came over pretty well.

Still on Grassroots, how many Clubs do Eastern Park think have got the pokies. It seems as though they think every club in Div 1 and Div 2. For the record, there are only 6 Clubs with pokies in SAAFL (Pooraka D3, Athelstone D3, Salisbury West D4, Gaza D1 (I think they still have them), Gepps Cross D2 and Salisbury North D1) and only 1 of them would be considered as making a really good go of it (Salisbury North).

So, to you Eastern Parkers, don't use 'no pokies' as a reason not to achieve a higher level.

Who was that idiot clowning around behind the camera during an interview with the sponsorship coordinator. Unbelievable.

While Eastern Park may haven't got the Pokie thing exact one thing that was obvious from visiting there is how much they do for the juniors

The main point of the interview that I got out of it is they probably are the biggest club in the north in terms of how many footballers of all ages they put on the park yet they have outgrown the little shed they possess on dwight reserve

Does any other clubs have any legends of the Lindsay Lawrence ilk ie 50 year old, 450 games still running around

Any identities that would be good for an interview let us know at mailto:grassroots31@yahoo.com.au

The bloke clowning around was just the Eastern Park Fitzy and too piss funny to edit out

Yeah, ours is almost 40, played about a million games and still plays A grade... guess who??

Well I dont know if you can look at this as a good thing or bad thing.
I sure hope you have some good influential people out there coaching your jnr's. I think its great that eastern park have great numbers out there through there juniors but
If Easton Park jnrs turn out to be anything like your Div 3 A grade side
They better start building more hospitals & hiring more Doctors because all they do is throw punchies. (what a waste of good talent)
Nothing against your A grade coach - I understand he would like his players to go in hard for the ball but to whack players behind play & at the bottom of the pack, is just not on. I recall your coach spraying his players at qtr time & half time of the eastern park vs athelstone game for stupid sh*t that cost his side dearly that day.
If i recall correctly - that was a 100 point ass whooping that day

All the best to all the sides this week - Cruzn9

FalconChick, that would be the great Scott Darrington.

Looking forward to giving pag a friendly squirt with the water bottle tomorrow. we are without a few, so this game wont be a gimmee by any means....

[Pag]

Yeah got back in after not doing much for the first seven weeks, got a little bit of touch back which is good. We had a real crack at them, we were up by 4 goals at quarter-time and half-time but Payneham just overran us in the third quarter, kicked 8 goals to 1 and that was that. Quality side though, they just had that extra gear when we thought we might've had them on the ropes. Kane Irvine just kept getting it, quality player. Tyson Burrows was good too, ran with him for a bit while I was on the footy and the bloke knows where to run to get the footy. FalconChick gave me a drink in the last quarter too, which was very nice of her...

We had 5 blokes play their first A-grade game yesterday so to be leading them til halfway through the third quarter was a pretty good effort by our boys, we just got outdone by a better side in the end. We've got 8 guys to come back in after the break so we're hoping that if we can stay relatively good on the injury front we'll win a few on the way home.

None of the other results really surpised me too much, besides Pooraka getting as close to Athelstone as they did? Anyone know what the story was there, I thought that had the potential to get very ugly for Pooraka?

Besides Athelstone, it was the most competition we'd had all year, and things didnt look too good there for a while. Salisbury are a quality side and their position on the ladder at the second doesnt reflect the way they play their footy. Pag played a great game and kept a few of our boys quiet in the first half, well done Pag.
