I heard Walsh fed Marshall all day.... Same thing happened two years ago when they were at Seaton. Walsh should be putting his hand out for some of Marshalls $500 a game...
The C grade competition has the potential to be very lop sided this season. Blackwoods C grade which played in the Central Division B grade made the GF in 2007. The standard of C grade last year was pretty ordinary and generally consisted of old blokes and co-ords with the odd standout player or two. If Blackwood even field a side half as good as last years they are going to win every game by a streak.

They played Victor on Saturday. Carlo got a lot of the ball but could not kick straight 1 goal 6 or 7 I think.

Technically blackwoods C grade will be made up of there last years 3rds & 4ths. Both of these made the B grade grand final in country and central division. By the looks of it, there are going to be quite a few blokes not getting a game of footy after playing in a GF last year.
Did notice that Banker. Tough stretch of away footy for IB. Any reason for this??
And Some weird match ups for the rivalry round. Don't know if any of them are even rivalries. Wasnt aware IBs rivalry was with the furthest club away Mt Barker.
Don't know about Blackwood killing the C grade comp. I know the IB will be very strong with around 80 players appearing on the track at one point or another this year. Alot of new quality B graders which will push some of last years Bs into the Cs. So i dont know if Blackwood will have it all its own way.
Big Mannos took some strong marks. The kicking was a little astray as mentioned but I'm sure that will be fixed.

i think u will find ted that by the time finals came around in the central div last year blackwoods b grade (which is normally there country a grade )were mostly playing in the central bs (which is normally there c grade )this made a bit of difference when the played i/bank in the prelim even though the only won by a couple of goals but then lofty still touched them up in the gf ..i do agree they should dominate the c grade comp tho as you say there will be a few missing a game but i think there b grade will be very competive but wont dominate as u think ...teams such as lofty and ironbank will take it right up to them
Yeh BJ Uraidla traveling pretty well massive preseason ,got some BIG gun recruits who will travel down your way pretty confident of getting the points.Have heard Willunga will be taken the game very seriously playing a fall strength team,just what the uraidla boys need after a 3 day journey on the horse n cart.
