naturally, that's why we're at uni... :)

At a guess I'd say 80% and that would extrapolated out across the whole club

Wish I could take credit for it, but I have to mention the Webmaster Gaff, he has done a great job.

Districts looking the goods this year. First trial in 2 weeks against Salisbury North. Bring it on!!

So any news on player movements other than the ones already mentioned?

I heard that the Carr brothers arent playing at Old Iggies and are playing Country for $$ ? can anyone confirm this?

Can we view SAAFL Clearnances anywhere? other than the Footy News.....

Footy Smart, in all due respect, you tried to start this fire a few weeks back they will be lining up for OIFC this year. They both have been training this year. If $$ was an issue they def would not be at Old Iggies. And FYI they are not brothers.

I hear from afar that PAOC maybe going under the radar with them playing down their potential fortunes a fraction. The general consensus is they will be very very good.

By the sounds of it, good poker players as well.

Ah well, good on em.

Theestars, with all due respect, i was simply asking a question after reading it on a country thread that the Carr's were playing elsewhere instead of Old Iggies. I wasnt trying to start a fire :roll: i was simply asking a question but if people in the know (like yourself) dont answer them then they keep getting asked dont they.

I wasnt at the games Fisty - family duties, just trying to get some brownie points in before the season starts. Chatted with a few of the guys and they feel they had a good second half in the A's game but were easily beaten in the first half. Its all about having the guys getting use to playing along side each other, got a good number of recruits in so it'll take the trial games to get them playing like a well oiled machine. B's played well from what ive been told

Thats a fair evaluation I think.
We got away in the first 2 but you guys really slugged it out and made a great game of footy. Both sides would have gained alot from the hit out.
As for the B grade, you guys are always a really strong team in the B's. I dunno how many C graders you played but we had probably 50/50 plus about 5 or 6 18's, made it a little hard with some blokes not knowing eachother. Still was a good hitout for us!

Districts having there first trial against Salisbury North tomorrow night, coach is rewarding the players that turned up for pre-season, giving them a chance to prove themselves, which is something i like. Still a few boys sitting on the sidelines, but it should be a strong Districts team. Few boys in good form, except for Paul Higgs and Ryan Sampson, who are in unbeliveable form!!
