SAAFL Division 7 2014

[Q.]

Not sure, possibly.

[marbles]

hard to get much input for team of year div 7 style, with not many posters

Q - who would you rate this year from houghton to be in the team

Sass? - modburys best this year?

Cohiba - any smosh insight?

Uni & sacred hearts besties??

[Q.]

Matt Harrowfield has been excellent at full back, probably his only bad day was in our last game against Smithfield. Rhett Glanville has been a rock at CHB. Gilling could easily slot at CHF for ToY, and Franceschinis would be our best HBF.

[marbles]

FF: Matthews (Smithfield) Webber (Smithfield) Dudley (NP)
HF: __________, Gilling (Houghton), __________
C: __________, _______________, _____________
HB: OLoughlin (NP), Glanville (houghton), Schultz (Henley)

=========================================================================

locked in Q, i put your HBF on bench, with our onballer who had a great year but missed a few games

SPEAK UP IF YOU NO MORE IN THIS DIVISION...

I think its impossible for Modbury to put names forward as we dont actaully have one player that has played all the games in the C grade this season, we average 5-10 changes each week, sometimes even 12 or 13.. and our best players are either up in the 2's the next week or unavialable due to work rosters and other commitments.. To be battling out for a finals spot this week is a massive effort considering how often our team has changed and how significant the changes have been from week to week, our coach has done a bang up job of putting a decent side out week to week.. even dealing with Vice Captains who decide to nip off to Europe for 6 weeks mid season (yours truely)..

I think you'll find that the B grade side still needs to put forward a team sheet too.

They've done a helluva job too. Unfortunately for our opposition teams, none of the money was spent on renovating the away rooms

they look fine to me..

[Q.]

^^^ we put a new door on since you were last there

[Sass!]

Did you get a chance to tell Roo and Ditts the sob story about a C grade side having some underdone fringe B graders play against you on the weekend? just wondering if maybe they were the ones to pass the message onto the league.. because someone took the liberty of dropping a complaint.. and how does the league handle it and make sure a C grade side doesnt get bolstered by having 2 blokes who are unfit and need match fitness (will now have 2 weeks off) and another who has played one game out of the last 4 due to injury? they state that those players have to play in C4 if they need a run and not in a good standard of football against a decent opposition in Div 7... The word pathetic comes to mind.. tell me how that is fair? Instead of these blokes getting a proper run against a decent side who will make finals no matter what, they have to play C4 against a genuine battling C grade side... We have a solid side selected either way, but heaven forbid they get stronger, no lets impose sanctions and force these blokes to have a run around in the lowest grade in the div instead.. BRILLIANT!

Oh well, good for you Houghton and Henley and whoever else broke out the violin and expressed their concern with 3 fringe B graders playing against an A grade side on Saturday.. You truely showed your worth, i look forward to you having a finals campaign against genuine A grade sides and with some luck you will go out in straight sets and you can have another year of bullying C grade sides while waiting for your chance to say how hard done by you are when you are involved in a game where a few decent players come down to have a run in their C grade..

[The Informer]

It's a bit sad if this is correct, what would make a club do something like that?

Sass my friend, are you for certain that an official complaint was lodged? You seem to forget that this is the interwebs and that the powers that be lurkers. If they sense an injustice, they will act...

what? your not allowed to play any bgrader?

[Q.]

That's a fine rant, but we did not put in a complaint to the league.

I queried John earlier in the year about the Kilburn bye and was told all clubs in D3 would be reminded not to exploit it, so you probably aren't alone in getting a reminder.

I can confirm someone took the time to contact the league.. bless them.

beign told you cant play a few fringe players when a team has a bye and the first week off in finals is truely amazing.. but what is even more amazing is allowing them to play C4's instead..
Its kind of like seeing your 10 year old kid having an even fight with another 10 year old kid and saying "hey dont beat up that other kid, beat up this armless 5 year old instead, its more even that way"

Clap clap saafl, clap clap
