Any trial game results from over the weekend?

Henley pumped North Haven
Golden Grove worked Brighton into submission

Only our C grade played Henley Bedge, was a combination of their C's, D's and U/18 apparently and by all reports it was not a pumping. I was told multiple margins and it was closer than I thought, apparently.

The A's and B's played Seaton mate. B's pumped them, I think it was 19 goals to 1 and the A's won by around 5 goals, I think it was 17 goals to 12.

Thanking you sir!

Yeah we’re pretty devastated about the C/D grade trial loss mate, I’m sure the boys will be working hard on the track this week to get that one back, footys a cruel game sometimes..

Oh dear!

Gepps Cross got a touching up by Two Wells (APFL) on the Friday night..... A’s was something like 80+ points and B’s couple goals only in it.

CLG played Morphy Park who had about 10 out for a wedding. As such the Morphies B grade was pretty light on and got a bit of a touch up. The A grade was a bit more competitive but CLG won pretty comfortably. Obviously bugger all to be read from this as 10 players is going to make a big difference come round 1.

Ty Allen to Westminster

Yeah I think he played for WOS against us a couple weeks ago in our first trial, got heaps of it

Bedge anymore C grade results for us?

Really enjoyed the atmosphere at Morphy Park on the weekend, supporters were great to talk to and it was interesting to hear about their past history and look over the honour boards.
Must say though the gap between their As and Bs is extraordinary.
I couldn't envisage MP staying out of the bottom two unless there were half a dozen blokes unavailable for round one.
Don't shoot me down, just an observation.

Was anyone out at Port Reserve that can give us some feedback on how Lindsay Thomas went on the weekend?

I see he kicked 5 but is there much to report?

Fair call CC, unfortunately many 19 to 23 yr olds can't be bothered playing anymore, some very good footballers,
As a club you can only do so much, many long serving volunteers left scratching there heads.
We did have about 12 unavailable both grades, but that still doesn't excuse are performance.
Golden Grove fairly polished with good running game, will be round the mark come seasons end.

Word is that GG have another 4-5 into their A Grade and another 5 into their B Grade though

Considering they're maxed out on points this seems unlikely.

Cool story tho

As TBS said, you cant play everyone due to the point system, GG have an excellent pool of home grown talent which is very handy.
80 - 90 % of their B grade would play A grade at a lot of football clubs.
Overall talent and ability of the individual footballers is very even so there are many like for like swaps when and if injuries occur, biggest concern GG may have is have they got that game breaker that wins you games of footy come the big matches.
Big blokes are worth their weight in gold, mosquito fleet can win games of footy as well.
Time will tell if you can win the big games with the latter.

80 - 90 % of their b grade could play A grade at a lot clubs ? But they weren’t good enough make the finals last year. Weird way to look at it
