dominate the last quarter, youll get votes

Exactly right, I pity the umps that get the Lodge games, Dean Steele and Dene Steele, sometimes you don't pay a lot of attention to the number because you know who he is or you hear a name on the oval so often.

That's a fallacy.

umps should be made to do a quarter by quarter tally and the stand outs will appear after 4 quarters, cos in general how can a 55 year old bugger whos just spent 2 hours running 10kms running around a park, remember who played well 3 quarters ago

Not sure what other club umpires do but this season both the other umpire and myself discuss best players quarter by quarter and write them down to tally/discuss at the end of the game.

Sullies with both teams in the GF next week. Having been there as a club recently, it will be a special week for the Lions faithful. Enjoy it!

Southern Derby in the GF next week. Rams getting up today.

Can any Marion people update me on the health of Ben Porter?

Hope he is ok.

Just heard. Wish Ben all the best as would the entire Kenilworth Footy Club.

Fixture has the GFs at St Mary's Park

Correct. With its A grade participants, it was unlikely to be anywhere else

Absolutely stoked for both clubs this weekend. Congratulations to the clubs for taking the gamble, paying off. Goodluck.

Saying that i'd like to see Lonsdale win

Why would half the SFL be there? If they wanted to watch this standard of competition, they've got the C Grade GF on this weekend.

Maybe one half will be at Cgrade GF and the other half St. Marys?
