Golden Grove Football Club - The Mighty Kookaburras

[Footy_Rulz]

I only know of As/Bs but I assume the CDs (combined) and 18s will play the same teams-

19th = Walkerville (Clipsal Weekend)
26th = Salisbury
----------------------------------
2nd = Round 1

Now I am not sure where they are being played but if what Pag says is correct I assume we would play Walkerville at home.

[SATCHEL]

Hi guys. Guess i'll be chatting to you all a fair bit this year? Good or bad im looking forward to it. Seems as though Walkerville are playing more than just one Div 3 side? We have them on the 6th. Is there anything to gain by playing lower grade sides before the season kick's in. Not saying our clubs are of a lower standard its just you would think it would be better to play higher grades or even in same division.

[Choccies]

It's an interesting theory marbles but we only got a gig against them at the last minute so I guess they may have been just keen for a kick in our case.... But either way we have played some higher divisions sides in the past and done quite well... I think we got very close to Modbury and only lost by a kick a few years ago when they were Div 1 or 2 and we were div 4 but then again we played a div 5 side in Elizabeth last year who gave us a towelling !! We have had some games against country clubs in the past but they just seem to lack something....

[Footy Smart]

Some higher Div clubs tend to play a lower Div clubs to reward some younger blokes that have done a solid pre season and give them a shot around some of the A graders. We are playing Elizabeth this season in a trial then TTG and Gaza. Its not a true reflection of both teams however there is the incentive is there like we saw with GG to beat us and they played out of their skin. In the end the lads get a kick and a catch in match situations.

confirmed trial games:

19/3 vs Walkerville (Probably Harpers)
B/C/Ds
As

26/3 vs Salisbry (Salisbury Oval)
C/Ds
Bs
As


On a side note can anyone explain why we are playing a combined B/C/Ds team in the first week are both clubs just playing on the safe side because its clipsal weekend?

To all you GG lads, I believe a couple of our boys have organised a Gentleman's Evening for both clubs to start after the Twilight A Grade trial on the 26th. All are welcome to hang around that night, have some beers and look at what Gentlemen look at.

May be a small cover charge at the door but will have to confirm.

[Pag]

$20 cover charge at the door lads, with drink specials during the night.

Get on board!

Went to a gentlenmens night at Salisbury years ago Pag, when Robo was coaching your A grade, was a top night! I was still at Kilburn then and a heap of us went down there, we were all welcome. Was a good show.

Still will be a good show. The lads who are organising it did our show last year too and it got 120-130 blokes there, expecting the same this time, especially since you blokes have four sides as well!

I will probably hang around if Mrs Tex lets me, i will see how well behaved I am at Soundwave tommorow to obtain my extended pass out!

You've got no chance Tex! Mate how is the calf coming along? I heard you didn't make it past 1.1 on the beep test??!!

[Johno6]

the only beep test i have done this year is reversing the truck at work

Yeah calf will be fine, and thanks for reminding me of my level, I did manage to limp through to level 2, still some sort of record I believe!

You been out yet? I will be heading out next week now that they are back on tuesday/thursday night.

And yeah, not much chance of getting a pass out, might have to start a fight and get a walk out

I heard the 'walk out' package includes a weeks stay on the luxurious couch...

[Pag]

Right lads, after the A Grade at 5pm Saturday night, get the missus to take your bag and the car home and hang around for the Gentlemen's Night.

Is a good way to develop a positive relationship between two neighbouring clubs with good reputations on and off field.

I may even buy you a beer if you do stick around.

[Port boy]

how good is that song johnno, i reckon we blast that out before every game to fire everyone up

[Port boy]

how did the trial against salisbury go

[Gaz]

C/D grade very rusty mate, plenty of room for improvement for our boys. Cheers to the Salisbury lads for having us back at their club for what was a great night.

[Footy_Rulz]

Well done Gaz, your first post that was not a "troll"

[Hefty]

Does anyone know if the C/D grade coaches have been confirmed??
