Great to see birdwood kick a big score. They wouldn't have kick that score in more than 6 years. Its a shame they opted to play a lesser division with a good side. I think you always play the highest level you can play. Country division would be Divvy 4 at best, and divvy 9 at worst yet blokes are running around getting over 500 a game. If I was Birdwood I'd be asking the question from some of these players...Would you take a pay cut for success in a lesser comp? then watchem head to another patch of Hills grass.

I don't like to see clubs use it as an excuse as to why results didn't go their way (ins & outs), but as we're talking about a trial game, knowing the 'strength' of the team allows you to get a bit of an idea of where you're at compared to others.

You can't really judge too much on trial games. No one is ever full strength and most coaches experiment with players in different positions and different game styles. Bring on round 1 I say.

I thought they got relegated, & what was the score please, did Jervois' big recruits play?

Perhaps you find out some facts before you post garbage. :roll:
We wanted to stay up in Div 1 and fought bloody hard to stay up but in the end, the other Central div clubs wanted Torrens Valley instead. So at no stage did we "opt" to play in country div.
It would've been good to see how our side went in central div this year but unfortunately that won't happen.

That's a pretty big call to make, considering their a grade had their most successful year since they went up. So you can't really say they took a dive because they didn't even finish bottom.

I think a full strength Kersbrook side would cover a full strength Elizabeth side most days of the week...

I agree, but a full strength Elizabeth will find D4 challenging, making a full strength Kersbrook around the top end of Div 4, which I might say is no criticism. Top few Div 4 sides can play the game.

A mate knows a mate who knows a mate? Why would you post that then if you know it's got buckley's chance of resembling anything near the truth? If Birdwood were 'tanking' they sure went about it in a funny way - they beat Onkas (finalists) in the second round of matches. If you didn't have your head up your backside you would have also been aware that they fought tooth and nail to stay in Central Division. If they took a 'dive' then they would have resigned themselves to the fact and devoted their resources to next season instead of wasting them on the ultimately fruitless campaign to stay up.

I think you know all this though and you're just a stirrer who likes to try and get a bite from some people.

Rather than getting stuck into the Roosters, why don't you get stuck into your own A's. The biggest 'under-achievers' over the last couple of years..

Gee lad. Jump off birdwoods back hey!!! Doesn't matter if they opted for Div 2 or were relegated. Fact is they're there and they're lookin to build success. They probably have their best group In A few years on the park and why not get that winnin feelin back in D2. Krieg is building a great squad out there, give the young coach some time. Good luck roosters! Reckon they will be very tough. Just dont concede a goal to Callington or it's deemed a loss! Lol!

had a chat with a few lads from Birdwood last week. They rekon Ol' man Krieg is lookin pretty decent this year. they rekon the 30 year old is running the legs of bloke 10years his junior and as for the build. it's been said weaker buildings have been erected. It seems The greek god of fertility "KRIEGOS" will be a formiddable opponent this year. just what Ive heard though?
