Ask Two Wells. I heard they pansted hamley last time out. Will be a good contest between the two this week

I havent' seen them in action yet, but possibly the dependence of all these midfielders on Doudell's dominance in the ruck. I'm told he put it down their throat at a stoppage more often than not. I'm pretty sure there is good reason why Stribling is close mates with Doudell May also explain why they struggled against Two Wells when Doudell was up against Feast.
That aside it appears as though they have quality players all over the ground which is what you want. They will be tough to beat.

Feast didn't play last time against Hamley, so that match up in itself will be worth the $6 alone

There goes that theory then
Anyone calling this a Grand Final preview already?

only if you think TW will be playing by themselves on 20 Sept.
Hamley have had a good start to the year, but jeez, all this talk of mail medals and premierships are a bit premature.
Just trying to spice things up a bit on here LC, gets boring just coming on here and reading who you are all tipping
Fair enough Choppy
I reckon HB are a good chance to make the finals if they can manufacture some team ethos. Then when it really matters in Sept, they'll get hammered just like last year because other things are on the player$ mind$. Spicey enough?

Could be a tough few weeks coming up for Hamley with a few injuries starting to arise. Match of the round is definitely United v Balaklava IMHO. Fighting for top 4. The return of Stephen Drainer v his arch nemesis Balaklava. Will he get targeted? Will balak seek revenge? Massive game!!

Pearson will pummel him with verbal insults. That bloke can talk some serious smack. I don't think Balak have anyone who will target him behind the play or anything too dirty. If he gets hit, it'll be fair and in the play.
Will be interesting to see who attends tonights first A grade Association training. Tonight at Mallala 630pm then next Thursday night at Mallala 630pm for selection.

I hear V Thach not very happy with coach Heberle. It was publicised on Facebook that Hebs did not prevent his opponent crunching Thach in a marking contest. What is less well known is the Thursday previous Thach was told his payments were being renegotiated due to club finances/non performance. Unhappy man!

You are absolutely correct. Very unhappy. Expect a few clearances before June 30. Stribling, Dowdell and Duncan also gone.
May also explain why they struggled against Two Wells when Doudell was up against Feast.
