we played plympton in a trial last year and lost by a couple of goals..
we have allot of ex marion players, some ex cove players, and a few more and they all agree we would beat marion, OSB lonsdale, Hackham, Aldinga, Morh parks, flaggys, we would push teams like nourlunga, christies etc
I think its funny how good you think Colonel Light Gardens are! You choked massively in the finals this year and are still languishing in DIVISION 6!!
Your ex Marion players are handy at best, and I think you'll find they were playing a combination of B's and A's before they left for your club. If they were fringe A graders for a previous club and are now first choice A graders at your club, unless they have improved considerably, wouldnt that suggest their previous club was stronger? Players like Snell, Maddox and Davey played regular B grade, with Ramsay the only first choice A grader.
Obviously you are bias towards your club, like we all are, but dont get on here and suggest a DIVISION 6 club would make the top 8 in the SFL. Out of the teams you mentioned, Id suggest you'd only beat Hackham.
have you ever actually seen a division 6 game of footy? i wouldnt say we choked either, we played very good footy in both finals, but injuries to key players hurt
Didnt choke? Id say finishing top and then going out in straight sets is choking in anyones language! But you do seem to have a skewed sense of reality!
And if your suggesting that CLG would make the finals in the SFL based on a trial you had with Hackham 3 years ago, you truely are deluded.
Trial games are nothing anyway. You lost to Plympton by a couple of goals, If you think Plympton were anything near full strength you would be kidding yourself. Central Utd (Stone cold bottom in div 5 beat Hope Valley div 6 Grand Finalists in a trial,make sence of that?) . You did not beat Hackham by 50 goals, would have been at the most by 25 and that was over 6 or 8 quaters and most of the damage was done in the B's, when the A's played it was an interesting contest. Whilst i'd back you against the bottom 3 sides in the SFL (If Lonsdale had Dean,Loveridge and Baxter playing you would not get near them) the Div 6 comp this year was no way near the standard that has been set over the past 4-5 years and you would not make the 8 in the SFL and this is from a bloke who's played and witnessed plenty of footy from both leagues. The blokes you ask would be biarst, what would you expect them to say "nah were s**t,we would not touch Flaggies"
. The end of the day who cares if you would make the 8 or not because there is no way in hell we are going to find out
