I'm only the waterboy mate - nothing scares me except a blue green algae outbreak

[maidenmagpie]

well lets have the the first round picks people

prince v old ing >prince
seaton v portland>portland
cbcoc v para>para
kilburn v smosh>smosh
mitcham v scotch>scotch

[piccachu]

obviously dont have a clue about to many other sides but hopefully after round one will have a bit more idea, going to have a crack anyway

prince v old ing - by all acounts should be a great game im swaying towards princes no real reason
seaton v portland - bit of talk about this game already should be a cracker with a bit of feeling in it, portland for obvious reasons
cbcoc v para dont no anything about cbcoc so for that reason alone going with para hills
kilburn v smosh smosh to beat kilburn but not as 1 sided as most would be thinking though i think a few of the smosh boys are a bit to confident!
mitcham v scotch we had very even battles with both of these sides last year but i think mitcham will just win

Jimmy you seem to get to match trial games - I've seen Para Hills & Seaton play (against Virginia on Sat) and both look to have some strong bodies and set for good seasons. How do you think the teams coming up from Div 4 will handle the bigger bodies - I'm hoping Jarman will have the experience to teach CBC how to prepare but I'm not sure about your team, haven't seen or heard too much of him since I have been taking an interest in Amateur league so good luck this year.

Not sure I understand sheeds - Is Amateur League like underage footy where the bodies get bigger as you go up through the grades?

But you are right - we are already planning for Div 4 next year.....

Now who's trying to dangle out the bait, I've got you penciled in for top 3, and if anyone wants to get set they can PM me.

PAOC by 8 goals, a certainty
Portland by 5 goals (dry conditions by 10 goals)
Para Hills by 2 points (heart not the head)
Smosh by 12 goals
Mitcham by 5 goals

[Hardy Hit]

PAC over Old Iggies -2 goals - could go either way, home ground advantage getting PAC over the line - Match of the Round
Seaton over Portland - 10 goals atleast - Portland have talked the talk, think they'll struggle to walk the walk.
Para Hills over CBC - 5 goals - even though i think PH might be taking a step backwards this year, PH to still get up by good amount.
SMOSH over Kilburn - 10 goals + - SMOSH to finish top 2 this year, Kilburn to finish bottom two
Mitcham over Scotch - 6 goals - not much known about Scotch, but beating Pinaroo by 35 goals last weekend will surely give the lads at Mitcham confidence going into round 1.

everyone is entitled to there oppinion HH but i think you will find it aint the portland people doing the talking, we have mearly stated who are new to club when asked instead of going in to these mind games about who we have picked up,its other clubs doing the talking for us to take some heat off there own mob

paoc v iggies - jimmy to get them over the line with water running skills
seaton v portland - portland by 28,000 goals as we are the best according to top end (seriously will be a very close and physical encounter)
Para hills v CBCOC - para hills at home are always gonna be tough
SMOSH v Kilburn - could be close if SMOSH dont take it seriously, should win comfortably though
Mitcham v Scotch - dont know much about both these sides so just went for Scotch

Being from Mitcham, you'd be an expert on that...

I thought you were home from way someone else wrote there tips
you will still win Hanno, even with out you the star

[Jimmy_041]

PAOC v Iggies - PAOC to be troubled by the bigger bodies in Div 3 but will just scrape in by going underneath them
Seaton v Portland - who knows?
CBCOC v Para Hills - actually at The Barton. Jarman's experience will teach CBC how to prepare
SMOSH v Kilburn - SMOSH by 10
Mitcham v Scotch - Mitcham by 10

[Felch]

PAOC to smash Iggies, new recruit DeVries to kick 11.
Portland to crawl over Seaton, 1 point.
Para Hills over CBCOC, 2 goals
SMOSH to good for Kilburn, 10-15 goals
Scotch to beat Mitcham, 5 goals. Tipping a long year for the Hawks in 2010.

[Jimmy_041]

Who?

[Felch]

You know, Brad DeVries, the bloke mentioned in that clearance notice you sent me...

Can seriously play from all reports. My Hills League source reckons he will be the best player in D3 by a fair way.

Will he be able to handle the bigger bodies of Div 3 and lack of preparation from the coach?

[sheeds]

Sorry Jimmy I was just asking because I believe the step up from div 4 to 3 is pretty hard from what I have been told and that I know D. Jarman will have the experience to try and get his team fit & strong enough mentally - I just haven't heard much about your coach was all I meant. New to the city that's all
