Was the CHF bruggermann?

angus bruggermann,

Don't think Hamley will be in a rush to play Angle Vale in a trial game again anytime soon. Can't take a lot out of a trial in which a side that misses the top four by a fair gap last season belts an opponent by 22 goals!!

What do you expect when you play a div 7 side?

It was Damian Angus, he's a local thats been working in the mines for the past 10 years. A fit unit that loves a drink Was good to have him back

Wow. 12 blokes out for the Donny Brooks. Who are they?

im with you westy, I was of the understanding that Willaston had most players in, possibly 4 at most out. United a couple down. Unsure of who exactly from either side.

As has been mentioned before, Trials are not really a true gauge.

Feedback from SGFC vs MFC was that Mallala was a lot fitter then SG, with a considerably higher foot and hand schools; mind you that was from Mallala supporters.

Mallala were cleaner, the wind was very strong and was a typical Mallala wind which they are accustomed to, my sources told me that South Gawler haven't faired too well as far as recruitment and Mallala were without 9 A grade starters including Parish and 2 x Montgomery.
Mallala had 4 giants that were taller than the tallest South Gawler player and their smaller players ran hard all day and didn't waste opportunities in front of goals like their opponents did.
Joel Montgomerie was outstanding as was their CHF.

Like I said before, Mallala did have the wind 2 out of 3 thirds so it was easier going for them, it was blowing a gale and very difficult to go forward and then 2 dobs the other way it was back deep in defence.

Yes Mallala did have a few big lads, were very impressed with the sides skills.
Hard to know where we stand at the moment, we were also missing several regulars and a few of them were our talls. At one stage in the last quarter our whole back 6 was made up of Ressies players. Was a good hit out and facilities were excellant

Couldnt agree more mate . It was good just to feel a bit body .i don't think you cAn take much out of a trial match full stop. It just an opportunity to give kids a go. Very rarely you have your strongest side on the pitch . If anything it gives a few blokes a bit of confidence. We will know where we are at round 1 against mallala as I think they will the bench mark.

You dickhead.

[barrys antz]

So all looks like the comp is going to even out this year. Some good quality in throughout all teams. Some have taken a couple guns, some have gone with the depth and spread ahead of the mercinaries.
Hummocks have signed young gun from NT thunder jack hatcher.

Played well mate. Took quite a few grabs and he's moving very well at the moment.

Only problem is that it may give them FALSE confidence. I think in a good, competitive trial game, you CAN take a lot out of it. Not so much in the result (win or lose) but how your game plan and structures hold up. You're dead right about round 1 being the test though and I did hear that new kid Greenwood did ok.

Yeah ur right . Even the trial match this weekend we have 5 imports missing . Game plan went out the window. We had 18 forwards on the weekend. Anyone can kick 10 goals against a div 7 side . Isn't that right greendog . He thinks he will win the Coleman medal now

O'Brien had an outstanding year at CHB, Pontt has a few injury problems with a broken arm and nose but was handy.

I just can't beleive that Hamley thought it was a good idea to play a Div 7 side.
Who's brainwave was that wonderful idea?

Willaston beat us by 12 goals on Sunday in the A Grade, we won the B Grade by about 5 goals. Both sides were pretty close to full strength so will be interesting to see how they track this year in their league and obviously how we go. They were just way too big especially up forward. Their new ruckman is a man mountain and was simply awesome for them, I expect him to be the dominant ruckman in the BLG this season. Game was played in top spirits with not 1 scrap which is what you want in trials.

Off to Warooka this Sunday for out annual match against the Southern Eagles so hopefully we get better as we have more matches under our belts, and gives our 2 new coaches another opportunity to look at the players in different positions. Also heard we have a 3rd trial lined up against Kilburn on the Friday night week after Easter which will be good to play under lights for my first time.

Not sure mate. Maybe no one else wanted to play us Thinking that we wouldn't be worth playing

[Mythical Creature]

What other trials do you have coming up Cyrils?

Who are the other teams playing this week? I know Hummocks are playing CMS crows down Yorkes on Saturday.

[OnSong]

We have another internal trial on Thursday night and a Wednesday night trial against RSMU on the 27th.
