SAAFL Div 1 & 1R (2009)

I think you find life member is 150 games in this case.

well its an opinion on the undiscipline stuff so we agree to disagree. But does sound a bit sore now after the loss to keep bringing up the umpire.

150 games is a still a few years service.

I said initially that umpiring was inconsistant yes.... then a few days later i heard he was a life member so thought i would pose the question i did with an example IMO the display on saturday was inconsistant.

Not sounding like a sore losser at all we didnt have the polish to beat a more expensive side but our lads had a crack and take more positives than negatives out of a tough entertaining game. Looking forward to an equally tough game against the Rams this weekend.

[NO-MERCY]

SHOC v Goodwood - Goodwood 21-30pts
Gaza v Salis Nth - Gaza 11-20pts
Henley v TT Gully - If it was dry Henley by 10 goals but wet weather predicted Henley 11-20pts
Modbury v Gepps Cross - flippers & snorkels will be needed here, Modbury 11-20pts
Rostrevor v Pt Dist - Pt Districts should take it right up to Rocs here as the conditions are the only thing that will help them get a win, could be the first draw of the season. 1-10pts

[hawks21]

SHOC v Goodwood - 6 goals
Gaza v Salis Nth - 10 points in a close game
Henley v TT Gully - 3 goals
Modbury v Gepps Cross - 4 goals, Modbury play well in the wet!

everyone tipping Modbury.... kiss of death

[Mr Butterworth]

im a big wrap for the gullies and was suprised to see them fade at the end of 08. noske being back is massive as he would be one of the state u/23 on ballers when fit. i do however think henley are the real deal in 09 and think all the big signings are gelling to form the most formidable unit in saafl. henley by 11-20 for mine.

Most likely would've made the finals if it wasn't for all the injuries in the 2nd half of the year. About half of the best 21 A grade players missed a lot of matches in the 2nd half of the season.

everyone tipping Modbury.... kiss of death

I note with interest that all of the experts tipped Modbury.
A win with some good players(C McLean, J Barry,A Stengle) on the sidelines against the 'new boys on the block" by around 6 is not a bad effort really. Kane Officer flattened by a forearm from #6 (who looks like he's eaten more food in his young life that I have in my 60 years) right in front of the umps and nothing done, took him out of the game so another one short.
One of the umps is that bad, it really is a sad reflection on the umpires the SAAFL have at their disposal if this guy is a Div 1 umpire, he is terrible, and we won!
Incidentally, was told by a Modbury official that their changerooms were officially condemnded by the council a few years ago, I can see why. Time for the bulldozer to flatten them before some exotic disease eminates from the place, swineflu will be like the common cold and rabies will be nothing once this place cranks up.
Footrot anyone?

Ace , do not make excuses. Modbury think GX are soft and almost proved it in the 3rd qtr. but not good enough at this level to compete for the whole game. Officer hit by upper arm [ as i saw it ] and #6 is just a solid lad [ tho some of his team mates look as tho they enjoy their tucker ] yes one ump a bit out of his depth but full marks to the other one who took a fair crunch in the last qtr and got back on his feet and carried on gamely. Modbury changerooms, as i have said before, a complete disgrace for D1. have not changed in 40 years [don't pay players. don't improve facilities, where does their money go ] on a final note well done to GX skipper C.Clonan on his 200th game, a true club and SAAFL champion

Have Played at Modbury , Don't know what the fuss about I reckon if it was a brick establishment no one would whinge, the tin shed always throws people out. Not the best facilities but at the end of the day it is more spacious than most and you got hot showers, what do you want heated towel racks cmon

[District Boy 09]

Played there once in D2 couple of years ago in our Premiership Year and if the same Tin shed at the other end of the ground to the clubrooms, it s ******* joke and stinks like dog shit. Wet mouldy carpet crap all over floor. Bulldoze the joint. Oval was a pig hole as well and full of mud and shit

[NO-MERCY]

Got to be honest, Modbury's ground is a hole & if theres any place your gonna catch swine disease its that place.

Hold the 'hot towel rack' and doesn't need to made of gold bricks, just a facility that is clean and tidy would be a good start. Something that isn't full of disused, stinking, rotting, wet carpet that takes up more space in the room than it deserves. One would think that pride in their own establishment would ensure a club doesn't allow this to happen. Sorry, forgot to put in the word 'putrid'!

Fair enough, just going by the last time I played there 2004, didn't think it was that bad back then obviously alot has changed

LMA, you could probably still find the used rolls of tape you had wound around your ankles in a corner there somewhere, I'm thinking its probably 04 since it's had a clean
