Big thanks to the PAOC 8R boys for their conduct in the pre-game memorial and their work up at the bar during the D8 game. Very classy and made it a pleasure to be part of this competition.

On both games, PAOC too good for too long. Gap between them and the rest has probably narrowed since 2014 but still seem close to the measuring stick in each grade

The great Ginga NinJa makes his comeback tonight in AFL 9s at Gaza. Big crowd expected. Crowd size may double if Mrs wristy brings the dogs down.

BOG by a country mile today and I thought he was second last week. The lad certainly is hitting form at the right time. The only player in the comp that I have seen that can stop him is Dave Aston. :oops:

BOG last night in the AFL 9s Winter Competition Grand Final. Leading his team to their third consecutive undefeated premiership. James "Dinga" Bell is the Chuck Norris of Div 8 and he is extremely well endowed the ladies tell me 8)

Shaping up to be a quality finals series in 8 and 8R. Rare for C/D grade comp to be so even between first and fifth and I dare say every finalist will consider themselves a chance.

In the C Grade I suspect Tea Tree Gully's more experienced players will prove the difference in finals. Having said that on a warm day on a big oval (Kilburm, St Mary's, Salisbury, Thebarton) on Grand Final day both PAOC and Unley will relish the conditions.

In the D's the comp is arguably even wider with the top 5 all having a very unbalanced record against one another. To take the weak bet it will depend who is able to get all their players on the park and firing at the right time. I suspect SMOSH has a slight edge in this area but that's a blind stab. Ditto my oval/Grand Final thoughts except I think in this grade it will suit Old Ignatians more than anything

I agree in alot of what you say here. TTG in the C grade have been the best team we have played all year. Will be hard for anyone to get past them.

Being involved in the D grade my tip is SMOSH. In the past month we have played SMOSH, Nth Haven, Payneham, Old Igs and IMO SMOSH were over and above the other finals teams. In saying that though, PAOC in finals seem to step up every year.

Good luck to all.
