HFL Division 2 (Country)

[jo172]

Did I hear correct that sedan have just paid $250 a game to a Div 6 reserves player? Wow

Elmo?

Are you taking the piss?

His brother/best mate/whomever must be pretty good

Devo, I'd be good for $300 out there

Everyone seems to be fixated on the subject of Mt Lofty s points. My question to all the happy punters is, how many points do you think Mt lofty will use out of their allotment? I'll be surprised if its 5. Mt Lofty find themselves in Div 2 this year because they have mis-managed their money in years gone by, they don't not have the buying power of Echunga and a few other Div 1 clubs! In saying that i still believe there is a big gap between Div 1 and Div 2 and think Mt Lofty will take the Flag and return to Div 1 in 2015. Only time will tell

If Lofty have recruited well this may be the case but if they've got roughly the same side they had last year, they'll make an elimination final at best.
No doubt Exelby was a good bloke most of the time but think he may have blotted his copybook a few years back.
Unfortunately Nairne will only have backman Troy Granger on a sporadic basis this season due to work commitments

Is this you Troy?

[redsox]

Rumour has it that Sedan Cambrai have dropped their u/15 team out and will now play on with NO junior teams.

If it is, it means he's been a fairly regular contributor to this site since he was 13 years old!

wrong forum - sorry

[doubletrouble]

So with the first round almost upon us who's everyone's tips for the weekend?

[Justquietly]

I've never had a dip at Country tips before, so these might be...interesting...
Maccy
Lofty
Meadows
Nairne
Good test for Lofty first up to see if what some are saying on here is true: that they won't be a force, I think they'll do fine.

[Kick'n Back]

Gum at home over Maccy by 20 pts
Kersbrook to beat Mt Lofty in match of round by 13 pts
Meadows to thump Kangy by about 100 pts
Nairne to thrash Cambrai by 20 goals

[Rams52]

Any scores from today? Nairne over Sedan by around 15 goals.

[Demon Juke]

Money well spent then, only lost by 15 goals.

[Justquietly]

Good start on the road to getting back to Central - Devs by around 15 goals.

Would have been quite a few years, you'd think, since Kersbrook were beaten by that much?

2011 Birdwood beat them by 21gl but nothing close to that since.
Good to see the extra points to Lofty were warranted

It would be very interesting to know how many points Mt Lofty actually used. If they used anywhere near the ridiculous amount of points they were awarded this would prove the HFL have once again made a terrible mis judged mistake.

Once again it is refreshing to read the ill formed comments on this forum ... Devils played with just 8 points today... probably a bit less than a few Country clubs.
Kersbrook were actually 6 so not much difference but apparently HFL favoring Mt Lofty!!

The HFL definitely favoured Mt Lofty "ball magnet" by allowing them 15 points to begin with, obviously our clubs argument was legitimate as imagine what the score could have been if they used what they were allocated. The HFL said Mt Lofty were in trouble and needed these extra points to be competitive.... well they definitely got that wrong didn't they! It's good to see only 8 points were used, all other country clubs now know where the benchmark is.....

[no1rangler]

Rams just to have an understanding of points system , what teams were allocated what ??
