Adelaide Plains Football League

[mighty hounds]

extremely enjoyable game at the bridge yesterday, although gutted at the result i thought the game was played well by both teams, very heated and passionate game but plenty of mallala boys back in the bar afterwards which is what its all about at the end of the day.
Thought our boys pressure was first rate and to mallala's credit they worked through that and got the chocolates. 40 points once again not a great indication of the closeness of the game.

A few questionable mallala supporters though! =)

whats wrong with the great mallala supporters,we just love our footy,just wondered if one red head umpire is a member of your club.

Agree with that one MM, arguably the worst umpiring performance I have ever seen in the APFL on Saturday... and to think he his one of the ring leaders in the APFL umpiring scene this year is a huge worry. If a senior umpire is training on Thursday nights with Hamley, I don't think he should be umpiring their games on a Saturday, or at least be a bit more subtle Will!

If nobody knew who I was on here I'd write something about that. IMO I think there are 4 good umpires and 1 great umpire in the league. I hold Jenner as the best umpire in out league! We need more of him.

Ha, you know I started writing "the colours arent the only thing Mallala supporters have in common with Port Adelaide Supporters"....but i saw the backfire coming!

Are you worried about dashing your medal hopes MH?

Funny SD. Only way that would happen is if I ran into the opposing ruckmans head with my ribs

Yeah, he shouldn't be able to umpire teams he has previously played for either!

So hes only umpiring Balak, Mallala, Virginia and Two Wells. Sounds like its sorted, ill call Doug and let him know

I think he's still not aloud to do TW A grade coz of last year still.

Na Ace he played a game for Mallala back in the 90's.... I'm sure he did

This training that you guys are talking about. I thought the umpires do there own training on every clubs oval? They were at our oval before we played mallala

Not footy training though on a Thursday night.

maybe they do now but when they where on TW oval it was before the seniors trained on thursday then they had there meeing and dinner in our clubrooms

I don't think it really matters when and where they train, I was stirring ****. Needless to say I hope they're training together at some stage, it can't be good if they're left to their own devices during the week, surely they meet at some point to discuss their performances.

I have Hodgetts in my Supercoach team.

Will must critic his own performances. Thats the only way I can see how he gets an A-grade game every week. Jenner is a quality umpire but does occassionally get small man syndrome.

Anyway SD, I think you boys might want to get in front of goals a bit this week on the track. 1-8 at quarter time and finish with 11-18, could have been costly if playing one of the top teams.

wow! There might be a email or two sent out this week between all the presidents after todays forum topic, if after someones little comment on here regarding the under 15 association team last week caused such a big stink, then surely being so harsh on a umpire will get some eyebrows raised.
I think your a bit harsh on him anyway, yes he trained with us on a thursday night a few weeks back cos he lives closest to us. I heard the mallala supporters abuse him and one said that he was as bad for both teams... I feel sorry for him because everytime we have him he umpires with not just the worst umpire in our league but the worst i've ever seen. I hate being so harsh on a young guy but i think he should look into something else, obviously started umpiring because he can't play the game but he can't umpire, maybe trainer? Runner? Score board attendant? There are other options to stay involved.

Back on poor will he was crucified for two 50's he gave away on saturday, but both were defiantly there ;-)

Just like his Tiger boys, Mythical Creature has hit a rare vein of form in the tipping, backing up a perfect six last week, into a solid five tips in the round just gone, taking him to equal second on the overall table.
UNDERthePACK remains up the top of proceedings as OnSong rejoins him after a drastic form reversal. Hazbeen continues a poor month and drops to second.
Most tipsters had the winners but the margins surprised a few.
Drop Bear and Fog Horn Leg Horn had poor weeks, reflecting on AKA's total after not putting his tips in. The big question on everyone's lips is will norm11 stop tipping Hamley Bridge?

i put my tips in mate it was early last week, u might have to go back a couple of pages

[OnSong]

Crap! Will do.
