Both times, in true coward fashion, the offender bolted for the interchange to avoid retribution. This behaviour, combined with frequent cheap shots is a blight on the league. With the shortage of umpires resulting in inexperienced club volunteers putting their hands up, this behaviour becomes impossible to keep in check. I know some leagues now video all games. Is this something that needs to be considered?

Players from the team responsible of the hit have been having a joke/laughing that one of the field umpires was one of their own players due to the umpire shortage. Not sure how true it is but the players seem to be having a laugh about it.
I seen a few of the players sunday & had a chat, the fact they are having a laugh about getting away with it & the attitude of "the bloke deserved it anyway" really pisses me off. You don't hit people & then to make it worse, run to the bench & hide as soon as you do it. Disgusting
I support clubs having to record games with this crap happening to often. People can't keep getting away with this crap, its not apart of the game.

Club reports don't generally hold a lot of weight though. Seem to get thrown out more often than not.
What game was it from?
Sedan-Cambrai V Lyrup

Colts was an upset with Wunkar knocking over heavy favourites paringa who were undefeated all year i believe. Great shootout with several lead changes throughout the day but some how the wunkar boys who were half the size on average of their opponents just won more of the contested footy when it mattered most.
Great game to watch but begs the question what does the future hold for the colts in independants? If only half the teams are fielding a side what did these kids do every second week this year? If its not sustainable is it time to scrap independant juniors and just carry on with a senior competition? I know the millewa football league near mildura has been doing this for years and are going along surviving ok for now albeit i think they now only have 6 teams now..

Went over today to watch the daughters fella play and watched the young fellas play beforehand. Bloody loved the atmosphere and emotion of both teams. I've been of the view for a while that the independents need to merge with RFL but after last few weeks of watching the games, i hope they keep their own identity in the independents. The closeness of community is like nothing else in independents. Was great to see it and as an ex cobby boy i hope they stick around because they all need to be around to keep the league up and running.

Seems to be the other 3 clubs in the prelims/GF every year.

Loxton 2006
Renmark 2009
Berri 2010

Loxton may have had one win since then perhaps but either way its a worrying trend for the RFL & the 3 failing clubs.
