sturt played a very smart game after 1/4 time they filled up glenelgs forward line & choked up the free running game we had displayed in the first 1/4, sturt were also very good at breaking free & opening up their own forward lines when getting the turnover. i was dissapointed at a couple of glenelg players lack of disciplined in giving sturt the ball for their own stupidity & this included some goals & off course goals are a premium. as for the umpiring as some have illuded to, i say its (the loss) nothing to do with them for instance if (jmc) after kicking a goal & getting us back to within 15 points didn't 'touch' the sturt player, sturt would not have had the free & if the sturt player continued we may have got it, that is not the umpires fault , yes they made some mistakes but it went both ways, i think the biggest mistake today was made by the goal umpire at the northern end but that's the way it goes (sturt kicked a point that was given a goal even the sturt cheer squad didn't go up until he signalled a goal)
i thought secret groups were a thing of the past, well not on websites anyway
