Morphettville Park 3.5-23

Morphett Vale 32.21-213


With Edwardstown losing the Elimination Final in Div 4 it seems the league got it right with putting them there. Didn't give them an easy ride in a lower grade but also didn't put them in a Division where they would get thumped every week. Morphy Park are middle of the pack this season, about where Edwardstown were last season, so Div 4 looks like a good place to put them. Brighton lost the GF to Reynella last year and will be at least top 3 this year so maybe Div 3 will be about right. They'll play finals next season but it's anyone's guess on if they'll dominate the division or just be a decent side. Long trip from Brighton to Eastern Park next season (provided EP win this weekend).


Only the Div 4 Premier will be playing Brighton next year Suri. EP winning this weekend only gets them a step closer. But from a travel point of view more than happy for WOS to go all the way.

I'm better off than the car, lets put it that way. I'm just a tad shaken (and stirred..LOL)

Car looks like a pug. It has a squashed face. I know this is completely off topic but how fast does a car have to go for the airbags to go off? It just occured to me that they didn't pop.

Got run off the highway in the country back in Feb and hit a tree head on at about 80 clicks, lucky the airbags went off for that... Fiancé still ended up with a broken hand and cracked sternum.

When working in a government role, I was driving a Tarago and was T-Boned by a Holden in Elizabeth. Tarago was right off, bonnet on the drivers side was smashed in, air bags didn't go off though.

Reasons for both Div 4 GF teams to come up next season
- Brighton are staying in the SFL
- Another Div 3 club folds/requests to go to a lower Division.

You may be well on the money here, but not necessarily Div 3

Oh there coming. I reckon the SFL's decision this week on juniors may impact somewhere soon. ;)

Which is what I said to begin with. Then again, SAAFL off-seasons seem to throw up some left field situations with clubs folding, merger talks, promotion refusals etc., so who knows what will happen between October and March that could impact the 2017 grade structure.

Brighton have voted people and we will definitely be a part of Division 3/3R, one of the C grade divisions and U18's next season. Looking forward to triple-header home games and hopefully some away games if any alignment between Div 3 clubs and our C grade division. We also have the option of night footy with match rated lights at Brighton Oval.
