I did. At Loxton. Fairly gusty morning and the greens were so damn fast. Nice course though. Waikerie/Loxton/Renmark/Berri in that order for Riverland Golf Courses.

Didn't think much of Loxton's star recruits, most of the local lads played well. Ryan Nickolls looked dangerous early but Raeder held him well in the second half.
Loxton too good going forward but the Demons had more than their fair share of the footy. Couldn't use it going forward.
Very impressed with Langdon, Hamilton, Knight, Safralidis, Woolston, Milburn, and Geyer did a good job on Kruger.
Michael Kirk, Nick Uren and Bronte Manuel were pretty good for the Tigers.

Wunkar's Sean 'Gonzo' Gray has been one of the greats of Independent football for over 20 years, last Saturday he was red carded and suspended for two matches. Who did he hit you ask?, nobody! - frustrated by his teams poor showing against Cobdogla he mouthed off at an umpire. His exact words were 'Give up, buy a rod and go fishing on a Saturday' and with a 25 year unblemished record he gets two matches. Beware Independent footballers dont break wind on the field, that will get you 5 matches.
Shame Riverland Football Shame

Between a rock and a hard place when it comes to that sort of thing though - you gotta accept what you've got and help the standard improve.
But giving cards to blokes for "go fishing" and "two teams out there" isn't the way to go about it.
Anyone who's defending that is nuts.
How many games did the Cobby get the other week after being carded?

I'm not defending that mate. Just saying that's our lot and we're stuck with it unfortunately.
Umpires are stubborn bastards and you're never going to change the way they go about it.
We had the umpire from our game in the changerooms after the game lecturing blokes on how to go about their football.
I felt like telling him to f*ck off.
Friddy got one week. Should've got a lot more for what he did.
But mind you, one of our blokes got away with one that he shouldn't have too.

Mate, wasn't saying you were defending it. Someone above said "do the time, pay the crime".
Interesting a runner gets one game for his indiscretion, while a bloke with a good record gets two games for "go fishing".
All I can say is, you blokes are lucky Daff's not umpiring up there any more.

All I can say is - the UMPIRE reports the incident (umpire abuse is a 2 game PP suspension in RFL & MOST leagues)(ABUSE is not defined as swearing) and the LEAGUE hands out the penalties.
RFL are desperately struggling for umpires this season, if you don't like the way the game is umpired, GET OUT THERE AND DO IT YOURSELVES? Its seriously what more blokes need to do after playing, give back to the league as a whole.
