BL&G Football League

[Stewie Griffin]

For those of you familiar with the I told you so game,
Barossa will still win the flag this year.
I hold no allegiance to the club, they simply have the best list and now have that list on the park.

Tanunda & South look the teams to beat.
Barossa are ok but not in the same class as Tanunda.

[Ruben Carter]

Some large margins in all yeaterdays games, is the new points system showing its wears now after a few years in the BL&G. BL&G rarely has seen blow outs in all matches and Tanuanda had the bye.
What happened to the Bombers yesterday and did Buckets play?

The Bombers certainly had their wings clipped by the Doggies.
It may be a case of no Buckets, no Kapunda.... with big Rosco best at the kennel.

Buckets did play....

Brook, suspect someone might have 'laced' the last pole you smoked, anyone that thinks South might finish
Above anyone besides maybe Centrals and at best nuri is truly a chromosome short of standard.
Perhaps sticking to Lego might be the best way to challenge yourself rather than making yourself look silly

Stewie Griffin,
How's your lego building going?
Maybe some people do have a little more idea
than your good self.

Have to agree with you there Stewie, the Bulldogs are just about full strength at the right end of the season, will be hard to beat in the finals. Kapunda and especially South just making up the numbers.............after the way the South supportes carried on after beating the bottom side on saturday you would have thought they just won the GF.
Tanunda V Barossa in the GF in a very close game.

Maybe the South supporters were just happy beating their most hated opponents by over 100 points for the second time this year. For years we have had to put up with a certain bunch of loud mouth Central knobs on the sidelines so the fans were always going to give some back. Barossa will definately be hard to beat in the finals and trust me South wont be taking any finals opponent lightly.

[Stewie Griffin]

Ah, Touche' there Brook Shields.
Tipped Barossa to win it this year against Tanunda in the GF.
Still think thats on the cards.
Dont get me wrong, I love lego, hours of entertainment, I like to build spaceships....

yes the "all centrals are bastards" chant got a workout as we were walking off...they've had long enough to think of a song thats longer than 4 words surely!

[Jim05]

Why change tradition Extractor, its an oldie that still gets sang after most games against your mob in all grades.

[Sky Pilot]

Dogga Woodards kicked a lazy six and was BOG for Southern Flinders at Crystal Brook on Saturday. Was overheard saying he won't be returning to the Barossa to play in 2013 but will stay at the NAFA Tigers. They love him and it appears to be a mutual admiration society.

[Extractor]

Don't forget Jason Akermanis is suiting up for us this weekend...If anyone is not involved then it would certainly be worth coming down to watch.

I think tickets to the event in the evening are pretty much sold out but obviously plenty of room to come and watch the game.

Club website has more details - http://gcsc.com.au/

Could be onto something here Stewie but don't forget that both times that they have met the blockies this season they have been flogged.

I've heard Dogga may be making his way over to Mannum to further a recent love interest.

Jesus that is a huge story Bazz. What about if they met half way and both signed with BBH?

[Stewie Griffin]

Barossa have only had 3/4 of their best side on the park at the best of times,
Home grand final at Lyndoch....
Think they will be there and be very very close,
We are still a chance if we can win 11 of our last 3....

Buckets did play....

How did the big fella pull up, he didnt play the full game did he? They would be wrapping him in cotton wool to make sure hes 100% for the finals..

[Lethal Dose]

Final four is now set. Any movement in the coaching circles yet?

Tanunda
Kapunda - browny has exceeded the expectations on the bombers.
South - Scott Lee has finally elevated the Lions from the foot of the table
Barossa - Has Roger underachieved with his list

Willaston - Donny's had big budget and expectations of Irving
Nuri - The Rovers have spent up more than normal, Norts and Gers are both sharpening the knife for salter.
Freeling - developing list under Tyler, list needs a few tweaks for next year.
Angaston - Hadden hasn't recovered since the 2010 elimination final loss. They had more gains than losses from pre season.
Centrals - unfounded territory for the gawler tigers, not expected for Herzick to get any more from the cubs in 2012.

Where will the coach move on to next season. All that cash and promises and couldn't meet the expectations makes it an embarrassing tenure for the Donnies
Watch for the exodus of gun recruits over the next few months chasing more of the same!

So who will cop the blame for the mess at Willaston?? The Coach, the recruits or the Committee??

I Heard that this will be Irving's last year, and that the reins maybe past onto Joel Campbell. If so the recruits should stay. Recruiting is just like drafting in the AFL, some get it right and others just don't, maybe the donnies just need to get a couple of workman like players to balance out all those individuals in the side.

I read over on the RMFL forum that Motlop and Meningie get a grant from the AFL which is not unsubstantial to promote indigeneous coaches, this would surely be the only reason Willaston would be looking at Joel Campbell to coach. He doesnt appear to have the discipline to be a coach looking in from the outside.
I believe its available to all indigeneous ex players that would like to pursue a career in coaching.

Be interesting to hear what the Willaston faithful have to say about this prospect

Days your comments are very close to racial villification of Joel and that is completely unfair.
Having been involved with Joel when he was playing elsewhere I fould him to be a great lad and he had a fantastic knowledge of the game and he will make a great coach if Willaston appointed him.
I have been told by Willaston people that Joel has been a great acquisition for the club and is held in high regard.
I also heard last night that Willaston are in strife for playing more points players on Saturday than they are allocated.
Believe the Directors are meeting to discuss appropriate penalty.
Anyone heard if they have met and what penalty did Willaston get.

Perhaps they did this on purpose, win the game of footy, lose the points due to the error, then when assessed next year for player points, they are not penalised for winning late games???

I would assume the penalty would be stripped of the 2 points and perhaps a fine, similar to playing an unregistered player...
