Div1R is not a low standard comp and I would have thought the top Div 1R teams (shoc, GG, PortD, Glenunga) would match it for some country leagues. There is a reason country teams target Div1R players. Zero points and usually better than what they have.[/quote]


Having had exposure to both, the good D1R sides would beat many country sides. Would blowout most hills sides. Higher training standard (generally speaking as they train with the A’s) and less top heavy. Anyone fringe Div 1 amateurs is a very good footballer.

Don’t think you can pay much attention to score line in trials. Most teams would have 10+ of their A Grade out for a variety of reasons.

Mitcham are extremely stiff to be 0-2. Should probably be 2-0.

I don’t see them being relegated.

Absolutely lost the plot with this stuff havent we.

Breeding a generation of kids conditioned to expect that you should never have to lose or feel discomfort.

Life is going to hit them with a tonne of bricks.

Lines should’ve been cleaned.. if it was no good - did you say anything??

Sadly good staff hard to find lately and the newer ladies don’t do it, or don’t do it properly.. needs to be raised.

I’ll look into it. I’m off the beers at the moment so no idea.
I couldnt drink it so she gave me a can instead

Sounds like it wasn’t a big issue and the world kept turning?

I’m sure it wasn’t intentional it wasn’t a great pour… local footy/community clubs aren’t perfect. Many people involved just volunteers doing their best. Can probably spare ripping them on anonymous forums.

C's might have had an even chance as well, if not for the 18-3 HT free kick count, that finished up at 27-8.

Do clubs really count the free kicks in C grade these days?

Only if you lost.
