Playing you guys last year your strengths were numbers round the footy. You hunted in packs, always has someone out the back door to feed handballs to and very good at creating space for your runners.

Weaknesses would be fitness. At your ground in round 2 you jumped us by 8 goals i reckon yet only beat us by 3 goals....however in the wet at hope valley you did come from behind to knock us off but fitness definately hurt you in the granny.

The eagles didnt really have a focal point in front of goals which hurt you if you were playing a side like heccies with a tall defence, so you relied on a lot of goals from your midfield/small fwds....

Halliday and Greenshields were your barometer. Relied too heavily on these two guys in my opinion.

I think Matty G had the fitness levels peak at the right time in the season. Unfortunatly the prelim against Brahma on that horrible day just really took it out of the guys and couldnt pull up for the next week, hence not being able to keep up with a fit, fast and refreshed Hectorville.

Ha haha. I was only joking mate. I put in the smiley face when I wrote it, then took it out to see what reaction I got first. :)

If you really were a weakness, would I tell you?

I'm still confused as to why we're favourites mate?

I'd have Unley and Heccies at the top of my betting market, Greenacres were up there but maybe to drop off a bit if Goldsmith, Newchurch, Sansbury, Rigney etc are headed elsewhere.

Weren't you guys in the exact same situation, you played there in the bog the week before and might've gone further if you had've played elsewhere?

Maybe you guys should really the be the $2.50 favourites... ;)

Think your selling yourself a bit short there OE :lol:
It will be a tough division ...not having seen Heccies and the Eagles I will be interested in how they go up a Div and I dont think the Chics or Scotch will be pushovers...every week will be tough just like 2010

I'm sure you wouldn't have lost many, and the coach would be working his contacts to the max to add to his squad I would've thought, he's no idiot.

Actually don't remember your statement being pinned up, but definitely discussed by a few boys. Not sure those things amount to too much in the end, but thanks all the same mate. :)

Pag.. you blokes should be around the mark if ins and outs are true..your second half of 2010 was impressive ;) and Im sure the coach out at the "would be" Dragons is woking his ar$e off to top his list up. :D

Has anyone run into problems with the new APPS yet.... does anyone care yet?? :roll:

I've got no doubt Danny's doing a bit of work, I would expect nothing less of the great man.

We don't really have to care about the APPS, we won't be anywhere near 15 points. We may have 10 points at an absolute max in an A Grade side this year.
