Clubs exist to win A Grade premierships but clubs don’t exist without lower grades and that has never been more obvious than this off season

100% agree with you there.
How are other clubs going for numbers.
Do you think it’s time to train once a week on a Wednesday. A good solid session or not at that point yet.

Strong correlation between D Grades (and indeed E grades and more) to being in the higher grades would strongly suggest the above quotes are accurate. Huge advantage to having strength in numbers

Gee a 14 round season looks good right about now…

Given the present tyrannical close contacting regime I can feel it in my bones that come Queens Birthday weekend a number of clubs are going to be wishing they took a more realistic approach to that decision.

Long shot I know! Havens v TTG next Saturday are looking for an oval to play A-Cs trials next Saturday the 19th, if anyone knows of anything available please let me know, cheers

I've been hearing that Salisbury may also be joining D6, any truth?

Well I don't really get online much these days. Mind you, I don't think it had been actual announced.

Well played

bit ambitious from rosewater a bottom 3 div 6 team from 2021 to set up trial games against 2 division 4 teams in pooraka and portland, would have been be fairly one sided against pooraka i would have thought.would not imagine they would have got within 8 goals of pooraka. and tommorow will be similar against portland. but have to give them credit for aiming high .

Portland were wooden spoon D7 level last year

Your grammar is atrocious.. also Pooraka defeated Rosewater by only 4 goals in the trial.

Can you please at least welcome the new person aboard before picking on his grandma

Rosewater will beat portland tomorrow

Rosie’s will be more than competitive against Portland, have added plenty of good ones since last year

That turned to shit, a lad from Portland smashed his leg in the 2nd qtr. Hope he recovers ok.

yes beefy it was a really terrible footy incident, unfortunately also a very good player, i will say that the game was a very good game of footy up until that point with rosewater having the best of the 1st quarter then Portland having the best of the 2nd quarter, i will eat my words in regards to rosewater they are going to be very good in div 6, some excellent recruiting has been done and they are well drilled in their game plan and will take some beating for sure. so if my grammar isn't correct bedge.

Went for a quick look. Horrible luck for the Portland lad. Rosewater looked very good early and easily had the wood on Portland until the first mini break. A couple of key injuries to Rosewater players quickly turned the tide in Portland's favour, they then had the better until the game was called off. I can't see Portland winning a game this year again unfortunately, Have 4-5 very good players then drops off massively. Rosewater should definitely be around the mark this year if there squad remains fit and healthy, they look very good in the mid and up forward.
