Mallee Match Preview –21/4/2007

Peake v Murrayville

Peake would have been disappointed with last week’s effort against BDT. After leading by 11 points at quarter time, BDT took control to win by 104 points. Toby Downs was the main goal scoring option again & if some one does not step up to support him, it may be another long season for Peake. A good sign was their better players were youngsters Joe White, Daniel Marrett, Sam Goodall & Kell Bleasby.
Murrayville pushed Lameroo but couldn’t quite get over the line. Luke Kirkbright started the year well, along with Justin Bailey & Tim Eichler. Damien Fenoughty made a welcome return after a broken ankle in 2006. James Dixon returned to ruck well, but will not play every week. Clayton Sporn (if he is not playing in Adelaide) will be valuable in attack to support Drew Crane.
Murrayville should record their first win of the season.

Lameroo v Karoonda

Lameroo look to have a very settled line up. Shaun Walker, Rodney Maynard & Brad Zerk form a strong midfield, while Ben Venning adds much needed height around the ground. Chris Philbey is dangerous at half forward & Josh Ridgway is a good crumbing forward.
Karoonda scored a good win, coming from behind against Pinnaroo last week. Luke Hocking kicked 7 goals and also played well on the ball. Simon Martin & Todd Boughen were strong contributors in the midfield, with Eli Koch in control at centre half back. Jason Morris showed he will be a valuable asset in ruck with a strong performance against good opposition. Justin Maloney’s return will strengthen the midfield for Karoonda.
Lameroo will start favorites at home.

Pinnaroo v BDT

Pinnaroo lost a close match at Karoonda last week. Brad Schroeder won plenty of possessions on a wing, Mark Gum was solid at half back and Scott Kirkbright showed his best form for a long time on his wing. Chad Nickolls, Wade Nickolls & Matt Thiel provide a huge obstacle for opposition teams to counter. Alex Keogh & Alan Halls are quick running players & Sunyl Vogt will be a welcome return this week.
BDT thumped Peake last week with Josh Richardson again showing Mail Medal form. Youngsters Jack Zacker & Jarvis Webb put in good games & Matt Schilling kept up his Grand Final form. Clint Richardson (shoulder reconstruction) is a big loss and this week will be a guide to the fortunes of these two teams for 2007.
Pinnaroo at home may just get the points.

Few valuable players to be back for BDT this week, should see them win I think, they play the pinaroo oval well.

Also a shame to see the young kids from last week dropped going for the more skillful and experienced players.

BDT 31-40

[carey18]

Yeah we go beat by about 5 or 6 goals but unlike last week a lot to take out of the game in the second half. very good signs when we get to no each others game a bit better. We could go down the murrayville way and pay out around $60,000 to put the team on the park for the season!. Hard to underestand all of this flying in players from queensland and all over the place just to win a flag? does that build club moral or do they just go to the highest bidder? Say what you want about the van but you cant bag the crowd around it!!!!!!!!

[Dogwatcher]

That's a respectable loss, especially compared to last week.
You guys could be a shot to beat Karoonda too judging by y'day's results.

Who is the Qld player?

[carey18]

no idea who is his Dogwatcher. Yeah we can take a bit out of it. will take a few weeks to work each other out

[malleebull]

7/8ths of the team is local and we have players that want to play for us you moron. wait to we are full strength. you guys need to worry about your own pathetic side. your club has no passion or direction.get real instead of all getting carried away with bullshit. its a long season buddy. $60000 grand my arse. just passion for our town and club. we play there cos we love the place . no other reason.!!!!

[carey18]

So you dont fly a guy in from queensland every home game? .Our club has passion mate. How many of your A grade have come back this season after playing elsewhere last season? Show me the money!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[malleebull]

your obviously over whelmed with your own career. have you tried getting a kick. your along way from div 7!!!!

[carey18]

Whatever you do dont touch your full forward in a contest either. shit he screams! umpires love him. Worse part about it is he can play!

[malleebull]

I HAVE NEVER SEEN SO MANY OF YOUR PLAYERS GET RUBBED DOWN AT 1QTR TIME. IT WAS AFL LIKE!!!!
