SAAFL division 5 2014

[WhenItMatters]

Was a solid game.nth haven seemed well drilled and played a good game plan.rosies kicked poorly but bad jucking is bad football!rosies also had 6 straight walk-ins out which will be handy for the first game

[beeched iizzz]

So what div 5 sides played trials above their div and who played below. Always interesting to look at this formula. Winning both trials against lower sides is good confidence and practice. Playing sides above you gives indication of where you may need to be. Any thoughts

We have a junior from our club, went to Port, and is now at Port District, with no other connections that I can see.

We would have on average 10 a year in that boat mate, the sooner Port Adelaide lose thier juniors the better it will be for the Port Adelaide area.

We have lost around six to Broadview through Nth Adelaide connection this year out of our U15 side.
Now we have 12 on the track and look like not having a side.
One side gone.
It's bullshit.

Not good for football and if the league clubs keep doing this there will be no juniors left as teams like yours keep disappearing .

Very good hitout for us against Rosewater today, we won both A and B grade games, the ideal result for us heading into round one next Saturday against Westminster. I was very happy with all the boys efforts today, everyone gave it a red hot crack. We hit the footy hard, the defensive pressure was very good and most of our ball movement was quite good. Exactly the kind of hitout we needed going into next week, big thanks to Rosewater for the hitout. Footy is back f**k yeah.

Rosewater have got big wraps...how'd they look?

They are much taller than us and looked quite good. I think the final score was something like 13.4 to 6.14 (not trying to be controversial, I didn't see the final score i was running around after my 5 year old!) which meant they had plenty of it. From what I saw, they should've been a lot closer. They looked fit. They ran well. They look to be well drilled too. They'll do well in Div 6.

From our perspective, we ran out of soldiers. Three blokes out with over a quarter to go in warm conditions didn't help but those guys out there did exceptionally well.

Well said Gadj, I think Rosies A grades first eight shots on goal were behinds? It was very tough out there in the warm conditions, definitely going to have some very sore fellas today, hopefully everyone pulled up ok.

I think our backline worked extremely well, (aside from myself, pretty average really), which is awesome considering its only our 2nd hitout, and hopefully we can improve on this game going into the real stuff this weekend.

They certainly did, don't expect anything different from you though mate But your goal save attempt in the last quarter I think? was awesome.

Thats how I roll mate. I dont get a kick, but neither does the poor bastard im gonna annoy all day. 1%ers are 99% of my game.

(got a nice little shirtfront in there too )

Anyway, enough about me...how goods **** FOOTY!!!

I was a bit worried about how our season was gonna go this year with all the guys that left, but now, after playing two games, Im very happy with who we have now, and the way the team works together is a massive improvement on last year.

Who did you clean up? I wasn't there .

[HH3]

No. 9 I think. Wasn't a big one, fair, play on and he got straight up.

I was a bit worried too but things seem to have fallen into place for us. As for the team working together I agree, massive improvement on last year.

This is one of the reasons why the SANFL is dying. The clubs have this whole high and mighty attitude that we are merely feeder clubs to them. We encourage our best talent out to them and get nothing in return.

What they do not wish to accept is that a premiership for Rostrevor, or Reynella, or Uraidla, or Barossa Districts means no less to those clubs than an SANFL premiership does to Norwood, or an AFL premiership does to Hawthorn. Our existance does not revolve around providing players to our zoned club

There is a delightful bit of irony when one considers the AFL reserves sooking on the SANFL board here the attitudes towards the SANFL held by those at the true grass roots level of football.

Particularly as most of those clubs are in that league purely as a quirk of history. A few decisions made slightly different and the league could include teams such as Willunga, Gawler, Kapunda or Modbury these days.

I take offence at being looked down upon by a club that has not won a premiership in 50 years

No.9? Playing A's HH3? Isn't that Daniel Reardon?

Yeah in the A's. I dont really know any opposition players names. If they're not in the prison bars, i dont care who they are.

He's denying any shirtfront action and said it was a fair bump at best

Haha...im still claiming it to anyone that'll listen.
