Wouldn't say Gullies over achieved as such.

Despite the losses, they were still left with a very good squad.

It was those that don't know any better that though their world was going to crash down around them.

SPOC massive under achievers here

Probably hard to say that Morphies over achieved too, given that we don't really have any prior form to compare them to.

Unfortunately I probably agree slightly with Fitzroy, considering all the big returns. Still 4 rounds to go though.

Shrewd recruiting by Pulteney to get Dalton Tucker and Josh Giddings they haven't over achieved in my book. Their kids are another year older and a couple of lesser known recruits has them well poised come the business end of the season. If they don't bring home the chocolates in the big dance they have probably under achieved.

Brighton - They dropped a game.

As I mentioned in the Pre-Season Morphy Parks were always going to go top 3 in Div 4. They have not under-achieved at all and the only ones who think that they wouldn't do well in Div 4 are those North of the City. Someone tipped them to go bottom lel!

That was me. That had more to do with the other Div 4 clubs copping it in the arse and being relegated to make way for them.

Can this thread relate to players too?

Pooraka First half of season was slow but if you go by results Pooraka has been one of the best teams the second half of the season and now play in the G.F this week

Elizabeth would be under achievers now wouldn't they after bombing out on the weekend and being top 2 all year?

Bit harsh I reckon. There was not a lot separating the top 5 all year. Just have to look at the results when they played each other. Close games. Elizabeth are a good team and injuries to some keys hurt their chances at the business end. They will do well in 2018. Good luck to Dave and the lads.

No, Roys still hold that mantle for D6

Reckon in every grade from Div 1 to Div 6, the top team at the end of the minor round was clear favourite to win the Premiership. If any of them don't win it will massive under achievement.

Div 1 - Rostrevor
Div 2 - Henley
Div 3 - Brighton
Div 4 - North Haven
Div 5 - Glenunga
Div 6 - Pulteney

Think all six of them will win, put them in a Multi!!

[TIRED TIGER]

I think Athelstones leg speed and skills on Thebarton will get them over the line whoever they play.

They might be better at Payneham where the posts are crooked TT

Multis looking good, 5 down, one to go. Rostrevor look very hard to beat too!
