SAAFL Div 5 & 5R (2009)

[Bully]

good to see theres another person on this forum thats not following golden grove or greenacres!

i.e. plugger12 another red dog fan!

We don't have to buy are grand final spots..........

true, but what you have just said i have been saying on this forum for ages but certain supporters, or players on here tend to get upset. so you can tell which club is throwing the cash around when they respond

Sorry poor english.... Half asleep when i wrote it. my bad.. Iam a KFC fan and i really hope they prove me wrong.. However the last couple of years i reckon they have been clutching to a div 5 spot (very similar to Unley in Div 4).. Either KFC start recruiting some better players or there in trouble... Watched them play last season and there going to have to improve quite a bit to be more competetive.... Sorry

true, everytime i plaed em they seemed to be just off the mark

a long way of the mark........ Spent far too money on the wrong kinds of players... Is simon croucher and wes richards still playing there????

simon croucher didnt play this season but told me through the week he was offered "very good coin" in his words, to play next year.

fair call plugger..and against plympton we have had some seriously bad days as well..we will be relying on juniors more than anything the next 3-4 years so the recruiting starts at home as well

is cruncher worth getting back zedman?

[old farmer]

Heard pretty much the same as you Milo about new coach at IF. I have talked to 3 or 4 younger players who are quite seriously looking at other options for next year. don't know about lower div., 2 of these boys could play A grade at a higher level. Shame, they could have had a really good coach right under their noses who would have got a lot of old farmers back involved and he coached most of the kids at junior level. he has busted his ass for years at the club and never got the thanks he deserves. seems the execs at this club let personal opinions get in the way of good judgement. I thought the footy committee was elected to make footy decisions not the execs. Funny how things work down there hey undertaker

simon croucher didnt play this season but told me through the week he was offered "very good coin" in his words, to play next year.

simon can command good dollars and rightly so and has been offered some to go country but he hasnt been offered any money from kfc and has told the club if he plays there this year then that will be the case

test: he is a top shelf player and his absence this year had a dramatic effect on the team coupled with osborn only playing 2 games..he would be welcomed back obviously

they had a really good coach last year ,dasha and didnt reappoint him, prob a mistake but only time will tell.....they also had a great c grade coach in robbie pearce, and didnt appoint him, i know he wanted to coach again, abeit the a s or the c s,(didnt know the b grade coach so wont comment on him) but didnt get a look in either way so niven smart and green all must be exceptional coaches...as i said time will tell....

[full foward]

couldnt agree with you more old farmer and if they think the kids are going to hang around and play for peanuts they are kidding themselves

[LaughingKookaburra]

Agree, the loss of Cruncher was massive last year. In fact i would say if we had the side we had in 2007 in 2008 we would have figured alot higher on the table this year as I beleive the standard of div 5 this year was not as strong as it was in 2007. But saying that yes I agree we have only just held on over the past few years. We seriously struggled this year and in a way we done ok to win 4 games because the rest we got smashed and deservidly so. Some lazy tendancies became apparent through out the club and I hope the coaching staff are going to rectify it. I guess we will see next year.....

yeah seems like there in a bit of trouble no of at least 4 boys leaving and maybe more wonder if nevo can pull things together only time will tell.

well it doesnt matter to anyone but him anyway but like i said he told me through he week he was offered good money to go back, not saying its true only simon and your footy club would know the truth, knowing him tho im pretty surprised he would play for nothing. maybe as his getting older he just wants to help the club out?

[LaughingKookaburra]

Why wouldnt the club want the best key position player in the division imho in their side?? I would be 1 happy camper to see crunch in the Chocolate and Blue once again

[LaughingKookaburra]
