must admit i know nothing about the standard of footy in this league but once P Smith finds the tempo and standard of his team mates he will be a great player for his club and the league.

Got on the gas yesterday with Pete and he's a bloody good lad. First time I'd met him and probably won't be the last time either.

I guess Bum Crack will have the details on the incident from the Waikerie boys at the Mildura cup(if he can remember anything).I bet there will be some funny stories to come out of that trip.
Have to agree that Pete Smith is looking the early medal fav.

Judging by the phone calls I copped last night, there are going to be some very tender lads this morning.
The bus driver would have earnt his money on the trip home.

I'm never drinking again.

Heard that before:

Poor Matty Raison copped a big hit on Saturday from Arrod Westley.
Was a great hip and shoulder from Westley, but poor Matty ended up with a busted shoulder or collarbone I think. Both players put their bodies on the line.
Shame to see a player of his quality on the sidelines and hopefully he returns ASAP.

Great to catch up with Big Sexy on the weekend too.
Got me with an elbow early on, but I reckon I had the better of him at the end of the day!
Although I believe he had money on the Crows to win by more than 39.5 so he would have been grinning on Saturday night.

luke foskett has a broken collar bone. raison has a sublaxated AC joint.

[Dogwatcher]

ouch. thats no good.

Independent watchers will be interested to note that newly married Adam St John, as featured in last week's Sunday Mail, has taken over the coaching job at Ovingham in Div 7 in Adelaide.
His last gig was with Wunkar.

[silicone skyline]

Shane Schubert was impressive on the weekend.

Seemed to enjoy himself out there too.

Big question is, the Tigers reckon they have him for the year, while the bloke playing on Schubert reckons Shane was still undecided.

Can anyone confirm ANYTHING? lol

[Ambo72]

DW.. I knew we could rely on you to relay the info.
Has a Old Wunkar feel about it (New Wunkar appeared to have turned a corner under Watson)..
Small Club.. plenty of potential, hard to get players on the track, although there is the luxury of A's and B's to choose from.
Lost by 67 pts on the weekend after being 18pts down at 3/4 time.
A.Cooke didnt play due to work and B.Lines enjoyed a fair bit of it on a wing/hbf.

As for newly wed.. they take there time getting pic's in the paper and honeymoon is well and truely over, but loving life down here in town

[200 Killer Wasps]

I noticed the old Wunkar atmosphere at Ovingham as well Ambo72 - Mulletts, Goatee Beards, Tattoo's and flannelette shirts.

[Dogwatcher]

and what was that smell?

[the wonder elephant]

Also see Mark Maidment clearance Ironbank to Loxton, whar's he doing up there?.

wtf ????mouse hasnt pulled on the boots for a couple of years ...might be doing some work up there and having a kick with a mate ??

did the mouse maidment take to the field last weekend boys ? good to see brutus exelby in the goal kickers for renmark thought he had retired ?

[nuggety goodness]

and what was that smell?

the new coach!!!!!

[Ambo72]

yes the smell was me.. have had plenty of crap flung my way over the years.
but i've come up.. smelling like roses.

and honestly.. was Harry doing giving up on the whole North Adelaide thing.
More than capable at that standard.. only problem he had was injury last year and a now ex coach.
Should be in Red/White carving it up, sure plenty SANFL clubs would've shown some interest in him.

He goes all right Pete, told a few up that way he'd earn his keep and I reckon a few doubted me.

[Johnny Bowla]

I Agree with the slug belting people behind the play is a disgrace its about time that the RFL stamped this out while they have the chance to make an example of these sought of things.

Wouldn't mind hearing a first hand report on what actually happened, makes you wonder how the two heads kept him in check last year wonder if there was a reason why they didn't try and keep him.

Was at the Loxton game yesterday Peter Smith was unstoppable surely has to be an early favourite for the medal.

How can you say that he should be made an example of, then say you want to know what happened. There was stuff all in the incident, two people having a crack at each other and one just happened to cop one, umpires seen it (reeksy) and he loves whipping out those red cards.

Was it young Dutton that was belted?

[DARK KNIGHT]

Was it young Dutton that was belted?

yes it was.

nothing in it jonny b ? the poor kid (16years old) ended up in hospital had a cat scan and spent all night under observation
still headaches yesterday. you can't fake that

[silicone skyline]

The kid either has balls of steel or is completely stupid to try and go toe-to-toe with the said offender

Surely he wouldn't have instigated it, and even if he did, he's a kid!!! DK - Did you see it? Will it be weeks and if so, how many do you reckon?

no didn't see it, but if reeksy gave a red card and didn't offer a mandatory sentence surely it's got to be worth more than 2

Would't have instigated it? just punched him for standing next to him?

Not saying it was the right thing to do, but you mess with the bull you get the horns!
