I was at an under 15 game yesterday when a young lad was lining up from the boundary about 40 out, just as he was about to kick it a parent parked right near him in his car hit his horn to put him off, does anyone else find this a bit wrong in a kids game?

if hes 40 out at U/15 level and thinking of having a shot then he's fair game
I would've loved to be able to kick 40 at anytime

I felt obliged to let him know, I usually say bugger all and applaud both teams, probably didn't help that is my lad

Get out to a div 1 under 15 game if you're doing bugger all one Sunday, the quality is pretty high.

Interesting to see that the Under 12 game between Goodwood Saints and Tea Tree Gully was televised live on Dartfish today.

signs of the times, well done to the Clubs for organising it

They're a bright bunch out Ingle Farm..

Coach "Hey can someone help set up the goals?"

A massive shout out to the Broadview under 8s coach yesterday vs our Kilburn side

I umpired and he asked me before hand how they are travelling, I explained pretty new to it. Half of our side are girls who never kicked a footy before this season, he proceeded to try and encourage his lads (who were very well drilled) to allow our kids a fair go. Even lending us a player to have an extra in the middle to help us get a bit of it.

Not only that. All his kids were just as encouraging to ours and very respectful to. It was a real treat for the way they handled it as a club and the way his team and supporters to carried them selves.

Absolute treat. We are very thankful.

In other junior footy news, umpired U9s yesteday - covered 4km and was elite.

Cant walk today.

I did 4.5 km, stop being lazy

My daughters both play U/10s in the same side. One of them was bitten on the leg by an opponent yesterday. Thankfully the mouth guard was in and little damage was done.
Opposition had two girls (one of them jaws) who were much bigger & heavier than the rest. They constantly bumped (not allowed) but also bumped off the ball on unsuspecting kids. Unfortunately their coach was a bit of a hot head & wouldn’t pull them up. He even whined to the umpire after one of them cleaned up our player, giving away a free, knocking the stuffing out of her. It took their team manager at 3qt to actually dress the coach down on the oval in front of every one. Real bad look for this club.
It’s U/10 girls, no scoring, FFS.

Interesting, we've been talking about this recently. U14 girls umpires are doing the job by themselves and apparently racking up 10-12km. As runner, I'm doing about 6-7km.

If anyone follows Davey Boy Aylward on strava he clocks up around 15km a game, and that’s with two umpires.

Did anyone hear of any unrest at an under 15 game Friday night?

Phantoms vs Flinders Park?

Went to Salisbury North Brighton yesterday. Did a bit of research and wanted to see Brighton in particular but also a handful on salisbury north lads. They are a quality side, incredible work rate, voice and good skills. Much respect for the coach starting Chigwidden at full back although i did want to see him on the footy a bit more. Only had 17 for most of the game a dominated against a team in the top 4. Cant imagine any team getting close to them and Glenelg u/16's will be very good next year based on just their metro kids. Couple of talented kids in Salisbury North as well but Brighton had the best 15 players on the field

That was the closest anyone has got to them all year, was a pretty good effort from Salisbury North considering their best player by a mile had to play full forward for pretty much the whole game.

As I've stated previously, that Brighton side is probably the best junior side I've seen in my whole life, they have some very advanced developed bodies, their voice out there is exceptional, that back each other and play great team footy.

Their coach seems like a great bloke too, I heard him talking to the Salisbury North coaching staff after the game and had a genuine concern for the player that came off with a sore head.

Phantoms vs Flinders Park?

Late in the last quarter big bodied PHOS player cleaned up a FP player, i believe nothing malicious in the tackle just well timed at speed and would of cleaned up senior players. Sort of like Cripps / Mayne yesterday.

FP player had the stuffing knocked out of him and was on the ground for a long period of time. A couple of PHOS players went over to check on the players welfare so good to see. Unfortunately the poor kid would still be a sore today.

Siren sounded with no further play. As PHOS players walked into change rooms, FP parents including mums who had enjoyed themselves under the veranda early yelling abuse like "you dirty c*&nts". PHOS player who delivered the tackle allegedly man handled in PHOS change rooms and called a re+artd.
When PHOS Camden parent found out went over and a confrontation ensured, no punches though. An FP official or parent was trying his best to calm the situation down but not a good look for junior footy.

Phones will be ringing hot in the SANFL offices today!, Makes you wonder if Friday night footy is worth it for any age group over 12 due to alcohol being available.

I'm pretty sure I heard from the bloke you're talking about.

I couldn't agree with you any more, it's always a recipe for disaster, the games start a little late for my liking, especially when parents have to get the an hour earlier, plus it's Friday night so they probably snuck one or two in after work.
