I thought both teams were well coached with the structures and game plan clear to see.
I thought Locks had the opportunities to be 2-3 goals further ahead in the first 1/4 and could have broken the game wide open, to Smithfields credit they kept coming all day and broke Locks down.
Doesn't mean much but SFL top teams would be D2/D3 standard with the bottom teams D5/D6 IMO.

Could be wrong, but I thought it was the clubs responsibility to tape it.
Don't think we taped it, but maybe Zartan or Old Farmer can confirm it after they have recovered from their coma's.

Feedback given to the league was that they'd rather have a club legend (or someone relevant to the CLub) handing out the medals, with a league rep handing over the cup.
Obviously with 5 different grounds to be at, they were stretched. As it stood, poor Kilburn copped me as the league rep to hand over their flag, whilst I insisted to both teams that they get a club legend to give out the medals, should they win.

I get that side of it, just was a bit weird to be handed the flag, cup and a bag of medals 16 minutes into the last quarter of the game.. Whether or not we were under prepared or what but if the league CEO was there im sure he could have done the on ground presentation on behalf of the league? Ah well, doesnt matter now, take the flag any way you get it

I must say I literally had no correspondence from anyone about presentations as I didnt want to know about it because we were focussed on the game, but no one from our club knew anything about it.. All is well the cup and flag are safe and sound and we finally have a reason to build a trophy cabinet

Cheers for the hospitality on the day, very well organised and great set up you have. We were all quite jealous

My highlight of the day was Lockleys supporters hanging around for our score updates from Henley managing to shake off their disappointment to enjoy the schadenfreude of the straight sets exit of their local rival.
