Thanks to Lobethal for the heading down to Brighton for a trial on Saturday. Really good hit out for both clubs having their first trial. Brighton had several very good players missing due to a wedding and cricket and I believe Lobies were also missing a few. Brighton won the B grade by 5 or 6 goals and also won the A grade by 9 points but Lobies played most of the 2nd half with 16 due to only starting with a small bench and copping a few injuries (nothing serious) so Brighton dropped back to 17 during that same period.

Looked like being a cracker game in the 1st quarter then Blackwood played all over Flagstaff for the last 3 Quarters.
Didn't expect a 90 point flogging though.
Blackwood look a good side in 2016, well drilled, good press and some talent across all lines.
They seem to of picked up some new players this year? 17, 31, 4, and a big fella at CHB.
Flagstaff looked a little lost after 1/4 time, not sure how many out but I could only see 3 -4 regulars not there in A.carey (cricket) M carey, Raitt, Vanders missing.

Yep. Its purely a cost issue. IMO that age should be using the leather ball.

So you have kids heading into u17's who have never played with a leather full sized ball?

Cost issue? Several Hills Clubs would have spent $40,000 plus on player payments in recent years and will spend the limit under the new rules yet can't "afford" to pay the difference for a maximum of 2 leather size 4 Match balls compared to synthetic balls. If the reason was the wet and muddy conditions encountered in the Hills FL coupled with the early start time for U15 then fair enough, but if it is truly a cost issue then the clubs and the HFL must be kidding themselves.
