well its hard to say mate cause someone on here thinks the hills is like div 3 or 4 and there is massive difference between 3 and 5 from div 4 it drops to a long way but with the new players that maccy have picked up they will be a stronger side all new pickups have played alot of footy together and dont know much bout golden grove thou i would say maccy by 8 goals
do u know if they are playing in trial or not ?

is there anyone who knows if there is a yates or griffen still playing for kangy?

Sorry Cougar but Maccy arent playing GG in a trial. Will never happen.
I love grapes. With grapes, you always get another chance. You know, if you have a crappy apple or a peach, you’re stuck with that crappy piece of fruit. If you have a crappy grape, no problem-just move on to the next. ‘Grapes: The Fruit of Hope.

I'm positive there'd be a big crowd but probably there for all the wrong reasons !! And no offence to the boys that play for Maccy because they are probably a good bunch of lads but we have a trial against Modbury (A Div 1 club) which shows more about us and where we are going than what we could achieve playing a trial against Maccy which would only be done just to hurl comedic one liners at the Terminator !!
Good luck to MAccy though. We will watch their results with interest ;)

Sounds to me that SJ has rattled a few cages in his time whist coaching.

he seems to have a few knockers out there, sounds to me that he's right for any comp, adds a bit of spice and obviously gets under the skin of the opposition.

One thing he does have is passion, sometimes ill directed but you can't question the commitment to his cause.

Yeah I went to watch that game and was sitting right next to him. Was slagging his ex players the whole time- what a tool!

Unless the rest of the comp has dramatically dropped, and Maccys GUN recruits shine well above standard there is still no way they will crack the top 5. Have a look at these teams in the top 5 and the lists they have. These recuits are good but they still have no depth in their list when it comes to injuries and down days. Its good to see improvement but don't talk them up too much as the fall will be too great and may see them slip away completely. It will takes years to rebuild a club and lets hope SJ is there to stay for a while and not just there for a pay day. Don't really know the guy, but from his record it doesn't look like he stick around too long.

Kersbrook have lost 'A' grade premiership player Lachlan Hall for the season as the Northern Districts cricketer will be playing in England during their summer. The loss has been offset by the return of Michael Soden who was O/S last year.
