What makes everybody think that Freeling are going to improve so much this season?? It seems every year they're tipped for top 3 or 4 yet the last couple of years would suggest they will be down in the lower rungs of the ladder, unless of course they have spent a bit over summer. I heard Greeny is as fit as ever and is set for a monster year, but who else have they picked up?

Freeling have kept all their imports from last year with most becoming locals under the points system. They have regained Travis Muster from Broadview after he followed Scotty Leal their a few years ago. Jarrad O'Rielly (Broadview) and David Wood (Angaston) come over to the Legs. Mark mensforth (younger brother of Luke) comes to the town and he just as big as Luke (if not bigger), while a returning Jimmy Lienert looks fitter than ever. There are also a group of youngsters coming up from the Under 17's who will push for selection.

Agree Bum Crack. I hope their not pinning their hopes on the ability of Mark Mensforth, I'm not suggesting they are, but he played at Mallala in the early 2000's and he didn't have much impact at all in the APFL. Who knows if he gets himself fit he might go alright, but he'll play mostly 2's at a guess.

Angaston had an internal trial wednesday night. Peering through the fog and drizzle one could make out a few notable names. Harvey was running around as was Doecke. Phil Bennett has brought up a former team mate in Brad Sugars (ex crows rookie). numbers weren't great but looks like a few old hands will be helping out the club this year.

Mark is actually the older brother to Luke. He can be a good player, but hasnt always been consistent. Mind you he is the fittest I have ever seen him, so he could be a wildcard to being a solid contributor. Hope he goes well

Yes Drifter legs are looking fitter, stronger and faster, 7-8 goal better side in 2011. Expecting to play finals.
Catfish, looking through the fog, did you see if the "Special K" made the trip for the internal at Ango? Got you boys in Round 2.

Managed to get a read of the Bunyip's little sports spread in this weeks paper. Congrats on a good read. They undoubtably have the best footy coverage of the 3 local papers. Hopefully the "Herald" can give me better value for my tax payers money and reports bigger than the usual postage stamp sized columns. The Leader hasn't changed their footy template since 1978. Stopped buying the Leader when they continue to place front page stories such as little athletics, underwater knitting, lawn bowls and car drifting.

The Bunyip do the most comprehensive spread, naturally a little more Gawler focused.
GT Sports and co are allocatatled enough space to write their reviews on the back of a beer coaster.
The Leader is more conservative than the Vatican.

Willaston A grade beat Kilburn by 3 goals in a very competinve match under lights down at Kilburn. Willaston b grade won by about 8 goals against a very quick a young kilburn team, was a good hit out for willaston, look out season 2011, alot of depth down at doonybrook lane. Any b grade with the likes of Jarryd Cole, Max Bornholdt, Matt Brooks, Matt Treloar, Dan Brooks, with still to come into the side the likes of Brandon nottle, matt cotton, adam moss, Gavin "Teddy" laubush, and a few more A graders to come down with inclusions in the top order would be a team to watch. A grade looking exceptional, with good numbers and many star players in the midfield like Shaun baker, Joel Campbell, chris McClean, Sam Walton and a gun at Centrea Half back in Josh Taylor(Big Unit). go you DONNY'S

Trial games are for trying new systems and tactics towards the year ahead, ofcourse some results arnt going to be blow outs between sides they may have different depth and talent. at the end of the day both teams had a good hit out, and got what ever they needed out of it. if willaston were playing in div 4 for season 2011, no doubt theyd be at the top half of the table with many ex div 1 players in the side. Id say by the time the team gels, theyd flog westminster by many goals, even our b grade would against your A grade. all credit to Kilburn they put up a good effort for a side that only 10 years won the div one flag.

Went down to have a look at willaston play on friday night against kilburn can't say that i walked away with much confidence that willaston are going to be any major threat this year. They played very predictable football for mine with all there movement going through there big blonde FF who at times had 2 or 3 to beat. Willaston was lucky to win Kilburn just run out of legs. Kilburn were the better side all night and in my views got the raw end of the stick from the blokes in white.The game wasn't played in great spirits with quite a few scuffles breaking out throught the match. Willaston'S CHF with tatoo's everywhere got sent off for something behind the play in which i have to say didn't look good, Not sure there was any reports but i found it very amusing players from BOTH SIDES even bothered with the carry on in a trial game. I understand that it is near on impossibe to judge the standard difference between the leagues but surely the BLG is a better standard than a div 4 SAAFL. I would be interested in anyone's views on where they think the BLG rates in standard compared to the SAAFL.
