Have about 15-20% of the playing group that didn't even go to school there either. A tight group that plays for the jersy, each other and the coach aren't that rare if our whole club does it.
The enjoyment of each others company at training and in games, an excellent backing from the comittee and good social times makes me and i'm sure the rest of the lads inspired enough to play for the club.
Who needs cash whoopdey !@#(
But by all means keep going lads it's quite funny all this banter about cash and other clubs. Lets see how those big players on big bucks back it up just like greenacres... nnnnnntttt. Good premiership they didn't win

Nah i agree, i wish i was at a club were all the blokes you play with care more about themselves, then the team and the club they play for.... Just wondering after the game do you all stand around and tell yourselfs how good you are???????
Agree with the mateship call, my opinion its much more satisfying winning games of footy with a bunch of guys who are there for the CLUB and not the $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$....
Another topic please, what are the 2 sides like coming up I'm always interested on how the sides go...

Hope Valley will be looking to be competitive in Div 5 and consolidate ourselves in the new division. Finals always has to be the goal (or what's the point of even playing) and not getting relegated is the other, but we won't really know how we'll go till probably Round 9 when we've played everyone. We've had some new faces out before christmas and expect a few more when we recommence on Jan 13th. We have one definite out (Neil Partridge - Hectorville) who needs a knee reco and wouldn't have played for us in 2009 anyway. He is the only confirmed out at this stage, unless our friends from the GF come clean on another. Could finish from 5th-8th
WOS had a great side this year and deserved to be premiers. They have some good runners in Warburton, Marshall, big rucks in O'hara and Dyda and quality forwards such as Allen and Conway (if he plays in 2009). They will definitely be competitive in Div 5 and will look to win a lot of their games at home. A couple of recruits would top them up nicely and strengthen their depth, which is challenged when injuries come along (thinking of 2007). I'd expect them to finish anywhere from 4th-7th.
I hope no one gets on here and rants and raves about us (HV) or WOS thinking it's going to be easy. This is purely my opinion based on what I saw of these two sides in 2008. I can't take into account what the other Div 5 sides will be like, because I haven't seen them play. I can take some confidence out of Blackfriars and GG performance in 08 after their promotion, having played both those sides the year before. If WOS and HV can perform as well as what they did, both sides (at a minimum)should be able to remain in Div 5 for another season. End rant
