Round 11 Review: North vs Sturt/Brant Chambers

[lesthemechanic]

So, it seems once you beat Central, you suffer a big hangover the following week.

I know Chambers got 4.3 from the live scores, did he kick the full 4.6?

I think it was Chambers 4.3
Evans kicked our first point & the other 2 points were rushed.

Well done on a great performance today North, very much like Sturts win last Monday. Sturt looked slow & that was the most undisciplined game I have seen us play. I have not seen the stats , but North got a pile of free kicks, most of them deserved by playing in front.
The Bays will be tough on Friday night, hopefully it will be a much closer game than todays.

[CUTTERMAN]

Don't know of any Blues supporters talking about premierships in june Akka, I think Sturt supporters were just enjoying a good win against a good side and an old foe.
P.s. Concerning your avatar...what the f*^k is it? One of your condoms?

You're obviously not part of the Sturt cheersquad then (who I had the misfortune of standing next to last Monday).

As for my avatar...it's a .58 calibre Minie bullet for a 1853 3 banded Enfield rifled musket...I shoot black powder muzzleloaders (both rifles and pistols) on a regular basis as a hobby...

fair enough Akka, every man needs a hobby, old guns huh! Must have a few powder burns? Not that I've got any clue on guns of any type. Hobbies, personally I'm a sucker for restoring timber boats.

31 -15 Norths way according to the ABC.
We seemed to get a good run but as you said North did play in front and hit the ball first all day but I certainly wasn't complaining!
Sturt were very undisciplined in the first half but steadied in the 2nd half, only real undisciplined act was by a young North player who gave Sturt a free shot at goal in the goalsquare from a reaction on the wing to a smack in the face.

[smithy]

Gill's tackle was a disgrace

I missed it....please expand on that comment.

Anything to do with Myles being stretchered off? (I missed what happened there too)

Yes it resulted in Myles sitting out the rest of the game.

[smithy]

For the sake of this site I hope Sturt win. Traffic on here after a good Sturt win is astronomical!
When Sturt lose I just about go out of business!
Go Sturt!

So your alternative now is to get your North buddies to start on Chambo in the hope of increased traffic?

[The Apostle]

We said nothing about premierships. We were cheering because we're called a cheer squad . We'll be quiet for you next time so you can enjoy getting thumped in peace and quiet.

BULLSH*T! I don't know if it was the sight of Sturt kicking easy goals against a side with less than 18 fit players on the park or that cheap goonbag that you Sturt cheersquaders drink by the gallon but there was more than a few predictions said by several members of the Sturt cheersquad (in particular the demented babbling ranga at the front (who didn't like it when I pointed out Sturts lack of finals success of late, particularly last years finals chokes against the Dogs and Glenelg)) that by beating Centrals, Sturt have basically got the flag all stitched up and the SANFL should just give them the cup right now (North and Glenelg fans will differ on that).

You can beat us in June all you want.

Not a Crows supporter by any chance?

Oh, hell no!

[The Sleeping Giant]

I hope that we can put this down to an aberration, but I fear that in our 3rd game in 11 days coming up this Fri night that we could see a similar result against the Bays.

Making excuses already? Bays have EXACTLY the same preparation as Sturt

As for North, they have now drawn the line in the sand, going to be very hard to match that performance

Huh? Surely if you can do that once you can do it again?

Or maybe you wont get a team coming off a 5 day break again this season, North played well but it was painfully obvious that Sturt were unusualy slow today

I didn't know you could have a leg on 3 sides of a fence. Bravo!

Well said lesthemechanic. It was one of the most undisciplined performances I have seen in a long time. Sturt had no interest in the footy today.

p.s. I'm glad Mal and bayman weren't there. They would of had kittens today.

Are you calling them pussies ?

[southee]

ahh a player that is too slow and unaware of what is around him, out of all the footy i have played and that i now coach, i was always taught and i teach my players to make sure the arms are pinned, if not, it could be an easy hand off to a running player that could result in a goal. FFS we are not playing primary school footy here, perhaps a few Sturt players could take some lessons today instead of abusing each other

Been involved in Football coaching myself and never have instructed my players to "slam them head first" to the ground. Arms pinned - yes...."head to the ground 1st"...ahhhh...No!!!

Well the Cows must be teaching there players to tackle that way. It only seems to be there players upsetting some fans.

[SnappyTom]

Cornes is right - there are football gods!
Where is Jimmy when you need him, always on so quick after a win, yet so far away. Just looking for some of that balanced diatribe we heard about last week.

I actually feel dirty and used, Central supporters revelling in our success.

PS If anyone wants to donate to SAFooty this week it will be greatly appreciated as with the drop in traffic from Sturt supporters we're in big trouble!

PPS Worked out the top 5 on the roost for someone but if anyone else is interested:

1. Glenelg 16pts (8 wins 2 losses) 53.7%
2. Sturt 14pts (7 wins 3 losses) 58.5%
3. Central 14pts (7 wins 2 losses) 54.9%
4. North 12pts (6 wins 3 losses) 55.7%
5. Eagles 11pts (5 wins 4 losses 1 draw) 48.3%

Heals will always be a Dog at heart - and in the tradition of Rick Mac, should get his lads to roll over in the event of a close final, ensuring the real team progresses!

Oh, hell no!

There is not one ranga in our cheer squad mate. I know who your talking about though. Long beard, always smashed, talks alot of crap.
BTW, we all have jobs and I like my Bourbon. Haven't seen that stuff in a goonbag lately. You want to talk about goonbags being drunk by the gallon, I grew up in Elizabeth mate, plenty of goon down there
