Nah, weve enjoyed drawing attention to ourselves and disrupting the league you condescending twat.

I note PAOC have named a full 25 in C grade, and a full 25 in D grade, and a further 9 emergencies!

Had they dropped back to a simple 21 in each, together with the 9 emergencies, they are already at 17.
I wonder how hard it would have been to get those last 4, or even get a couple of players to double up.

Coming from a club that fields 5 sides, having to scratch up an extra 4 players may not seem like much, but its the ongoing requirement to do this weekly and when injuries/holidays hit, you are trying to find 15 blokes to fill the sides just so you dont forfeit (which people are already getting frustrated with)

not to mention the impact it has on training numbers, when you have the bare minimum amount of players to fill your bottom side, blokes quickly learn that they dont need to train to play. I think PAOC made the right call at a time when it would cause too much impact to the Divisions.

Not many places you can claim that.

I love it. Parking restrictions the only down side.

9x more scoring shots, and to lose by a point must be a very tough pill to swallow!

17.2 is fair kicking too!

Is the Units season reaching crisis point now? Long way back from 0-4

I left at the start of the 3rd term and simply can not believe Units lost that game! Pines had 12 straight when I left.

Well then what's your synopsis? 5.11 to 9.6 does seem inaccuracy plays a significant part.

Second quarter MP kick 3.1 and AL 1.3 - game over.
