I played in the same league and I reckon Jamie Downs was a year older then Tyson Edwards. This would make Jamie 32 or 33.

Under estimate those knees at your peril.

And I forgot to mention a football brain that is light years ahead of the average Mallee footballer.

Don't get to carried away with Downs- I have heard that he has had at least 4 recontsructions on his knees and hasn't played a full season in 10 years. I wouldn't be pinning my hopes on that no matter what his brain is like!

Saw him play in 2003 in a trial match for Peake at the Wunkar Carnival.

Despite wearing an enormous knee brace he kicked 6 and hardly raised a sweat. Just used clever body work, positioning and strong one grab marking.

Although I must admit at 11.53 pm on a Saturday night with a gut full of red wine I may have talked him up a little too much.

I was there that day too Supa.

And sometimes at that level - that's all you need.

Lets get off Downs- he seriously will struggle to play more than 2 games this year. We will know a bit more about Peake after Loxton. The real guns that Peake have been rumoured to have recruited are Dunn (Ex Ballarat Rebels and recruited for Sturts league team 2 years ago) and Hawkins (Div 2 medallist in 2005) if the stories are true about them then they may have a chance.

The good oil on Peake for 2007?? How did they look at Loxton?

Players missing on both days.
Flashes of briliance. They moved the ball well, but didn't use middle of ground often enough.
Lacking a ruckman - well at least didn't really have one on either day of the carnival.
Their Paralowie recruits will do well for them - should be among the leading players.

We play Pinnaroo this Friday night. I expect they'll pummel us.

Trav Carling home from overseas and training with peake this week, will be a huge pick up if he hangs around

Na I think Oxa is way off the mark there, D&O seems a lot more intelligent than Downs no matter what you hear..

Down&Out · Post by **Down&Out** » Tue Mar 20, 2007 1:19 pm

Oxa would like to be down & Out- he has been given a few wraps here! certainly know a few towns boys- been around a bit- not sure about ettiquette are you just allowed to come out and ask who a person is??
