Div 6 2007

[BenchedEagle]

yeh definatley we have also got 10 or so lads that have come straight out from school (First XVIII) that can all play abit which will definatley give the As a heap of depth and the Bs a heap of run

C grade might be a chance this year, if u dont lose any 06 players

[cj_blacks]

na we would be pretty reluctant as we would need to find a new oval for the Cgrade as we share st doms with the first xviii.

[sprinttospace]

everyones a little quiet in div 6. how is the recruiting going. we have landed a couple of decent ones. unlike last year we had to recruit 2 whole sides, this year we have picked up a big forward from the raggies B-grade. gaza B-grade midfielder, a SHOC A-grader. Matthew Belton (coaches nephew, played in the sanfl equivilent in Tas before moving to london a couple of years ago) there are a few more we are working on aswell. pick of the bunch would be best mates brother is a walkerville A-grader thats considering coming across, a Kapunda A-Grader and a Broadview 2004 Div1 prem player are all a small chance of lining up for us this year.

more paperwork, more iscore transfer requests, more discussions about unfinancial players before clearing them. i think i will have to give up my day job to keep up with all the administration tasks. geez the players get it easy in this caper

cj, where do the kids you get to come over from the First 18 play normally ? I saw the B's play last year v The Winnie Royals & some of the younger blokes were a tad intimidated, as they should have been.

[mypaddock]

hows things going withing g/grove circles? picked up many players? had some good kids last yr but apart from that u'd hope to get some decent senior blokes round the club...

[cj_blacks]

yeh alot of the lads were intimidated by wingies in the first game last year... second one at ottaway was differnet. half of these fresh ones are pretty well built. could play on the ball.

[blacks27]

Don't know why they'd be intimidated by wingfield they're a little bit older and have a bit more weight than some young boys, so what they're slow and fell harder in the end!
No one is intimidated at our club that i know of and why would you be! Got plenty of blokes around to back up the young lads and push them through!

GGrove lookin alright this year? I too would like to know how they're going/picked up for the season.

[BenchedEagle]

I know GG are screaming for people to play them at night there. But noone wants too, so they have wasted thyre investment on good lights. I think we were the only team to play them under lights last year.

[cj_blacks]

we are keen to play them

Im preety sure that we r keen 2 play them at night with possibly a return night game at our home ground. Hope Valley have also been approoved for 6 Sat night games this year so we r looking 4 interested clubs 2 play matches against us at night

Last year we had Friday night fixtures almost every week for junior grades and 1 C Grade game which was very popular. Last year we werent allowed to play Sat night games but this year we were given council approval for 6 Sat night and unlimited friday night (i think)

Yeah everythings looking really posotive at this early stage. Weve had no less than 40 out at training every night with a max of 54.

We have a few past a graders from a couple of years ago returning. 3 or 4 from Birdwood, 2 or 3 from Brahma Lodge training with us. 1 from Ingle Farm and 1 from Smithfield.

New coach Charlie Wintle is in negotiations with a couple of others but i guess we will have to wait and see. We have only lost a couple from last years group so everything looks encouraging for 2007
