thats fair about that being disgraceful
but from some of the names who played C's last year, those bloeks as far as I know wouldnt know how to throw a punch
sure a few blokes would have been thugs but like you said estaban, alot of sides get like that in the lower grades!
not condoning it but I would almost say its expected that a little bit of biff occurs in the lower grades![/quote]


have to agree fisty most of the lads in c grade were the young lads. wouldnt think they would start stuff. Things like that can happen when you are in a c and d grade and playing against A grade clubs. but not happy if it was true.
We're in hell right now gentlemen. Believe me. And we can stay here, get the shit kicked out of us, or we can fight our way back into the light. We can climb outta hell... one inch at a time.

A few of us were hoping PNU was going to fall over a couple of years back when they had that money stolen - PNU Oval would now be PAOC Park BUT..... everyone always kicks out of bounds coz its as bent as a Cheech & Chong film :weedman: :weedman: :weedman:


Not quite,the offer was made to you guys to use the downstairs bar which from memory was duly considered but not sure why it didn't go through..


What....and let you drop your empties over the balcony on our heads - NFL!!!

Nah, you would have been safe Jimmy, the downstairs bar is at the back of the building.

Besides, the locals only throw Beam cans at blokes on the field....

Yes, a bit of biffo is expected in c's and d's, and yes, some of them would struggle to tie their own shoe laces, but it's easy to inflict damage when someone is on the ground or not looking; thankfully, I saw no serious injuries that day.
Where's Bill? Yeah... Hmm... Bill is on the Villa Quatro, on the road to Salina. I will draw you a map.

Flinders U @ SMOSH

Yes, always two sides to a story, but after over 200 senior games, mostly in SFL, I've only seen one side perform as badly, although they did it for nigh on 15 years.
