What is happening down at two wells? The side doesn't look too different from last years side.

Like I said " no Jarrod Allmond no Two Wells".

Like I said "biggest load of shit I've ever heard"

Two Wells losing key positon players has taken it's toll the last 3 weeks. Full team against Virginia and Balaklava resulted in wins. Still we were 3-4 last season and 4-5 games behind Mallala in second, it's only May no panic buttons yet

While I agree, no panic buttons yet, it has to be said the losses by the Roosters last year were games they were winning and lost late by a much smaller margin. The margins of defeat in recent weeks and butchering of the footy (wasn't a problem against us mind you) are great cause for concern in the Rooster camp.

In the same breath, HB, United and Mallala are good sides. I really like Joss DenEngelse's quote last week. If you're not on your game, you will get beaten. TW haven't been on their game. Simple as that. As to why, I'd imagine Kcco and MH might have some suggestions. Lee Allmond would be one major factor I would imagine.

The games we lost to Virginia and Mallala last year were close games through out the day but the losses to you blokes were after giving up significant margins. The first loss to Hamley was almost triple of our total losing margins put together last year.

Losing Lee doesn't help as he's probably in the top 5 in the league when fit. Being a defender down, key forward and ruckmen doesn't help at all especially against Mallala with that quality forward line.

Interesting to note being the interchange stewert on Saturday Mallala made almost 50 changes to our 8ish. They rotated most players outside of their forward line. Good situation to be in

I think your right westy just looking at two wells results so far J Allmond is the link up player when going forward and his use of the ball to the mids and forwards is what seems to be lacking at the roosters, no team will admit that one player is the reason for not winning there is no "I" in team but the evidence is there unfortunately. When and who was the last team to win a GF and then not make finals the next year???? top 3 is looking very clear atm 4th spot up for grabs and the roosters wont be there if they keep loosing.

ventured out to Hamley on the weekend to watch the top of the table clash and it was well worth it, cracking game of country football the pressure was fierce from both sides and in the end it was the match ups that lost it for virginia IMO, M Young full back on greenwood bad move virginia missed his pressence in the middle and payed for it B Russel should have tagged Thach the kid was everywhere and needed to be stopped. Hamley got off to a flyer with virginia missing goals and not getting clean ball movement which cost them lucky for virginia greenwood went down with a hammy so that freed up young who then went in the middle and changed the whole game if virginia had had been a bit closer they could have won but once thier ruckman went down it was going to be very hard, was haseldine injured looked a bit ginger on a few occasions, seen he was put down back on big nik which was a good move by Red standouts for hamley Hanson and Thach virginia standouts were young and johnston, in closing very ordinary umpiring as well the guy with the hat needs to have a good hard look at the rule book

thats the beauty with being involved in hamley this year. with Ben russell following Taylor. its frees the likes of thach . appleton. zanandrea etc up. and these guys will hurt sides. if they had tagged thach , taylor would of roamed free. hamley are not tagging anyone we like to back our players in to win the contest. haseldine copped a bad corky. i can only see the APFL getting stronger and stronger which is great. this year its anyones game on the day

so you only played with 18 on the ground? I watched this game and it lloked like you had 21 Players.

[Lame Choice]

What has caused the balance in the teams this year? Tipping is a nightmare.
1. Hamley cashing in and HWE getting Cicca back?
2. Virg losing Phillips and TW/Balak losing players
3. The points system kicking in

I wonder if the cash splash can continue for more than a drought or two? Plenty of rain last night though

Russell done a great job on Taylor but Thachs pace is what killed virginia and that could have been nulified if Russell was on him Taylor lacks pace but uses the ball well thats where young comes into it. Had a good chat with Red after the game and he said he would be getting 5-6 from every side in the comp then choosing a side from there for association.

Agreed it was a cracker of a match Tah. Don't worry about the listed best for Hamley - all those blokes were good, but Valor Thach BOG on the day by a fair margin. Only issue I saw for Hamley was they got touched up in clearances - particularly in the centre. May be fixed when Armstrong comes back in. Have to agree with you on that particular umpire. First time I've seen a "chopping of the arms" paid in country footy and a couple other free kicks seemed to come out of nowhere. Ah well, he can only improve.

[RooShootOhh]

Not the mail I got Roodog, got told Hamleys midfield dominated stoppages all bar 10-15 in the 3/4 when Virginia made a run (coincided with Young going into the middle apparently). Centre square just in Hamleys favour but around the ground were well on top.

If Virginia were on top as you suggested, Hamleys back 6 must have done a tremendous job to keep the rams to that score.

I was going to mention that Thach must have played down back if he was BOG, but we all know that wouldn't happen

we lost clearances when hebs went out of the ruck . there was no back up ruckman poor Ashley natt had to fill in. and while natty was an excellent target up forward ahe clearly is not a ruckman
