Div 6 2007

[silent11]

with the way hope valley are looking this year - maybe they have a chance of getting into div 5 next year

[cj_blacks]

i know this is a different scenario but there are blackfriars lads in the higher grades most linked directly with mates to our club.
Div 1 alone - ROCS - 1, Adelaide Uni - 4, Broadview - 2, Salisbury North 1. that i know of. If we can jag a couple over the next few years i think it would help send our club in a very good direction.

Hey CJ, had a fun tussle with u when we played u guys. I think I got on your nerves a tad!!

[cj_blacks]

Yeah not bad got a couple of good on ballers. Umpires kept them in the game against us on the weekend. Probably shouldnt have got that close

and other assorted quotes regarding loyalty.

what's wrong with people leaving the bosom of the school/junior grade and expanding their horizons into different leagues or teams? people swap jobs, move interstate and search for new experiences and influences - i think that loyalty to a club is a great thing and a noble ideal but it can also cloister a person's world.

i think its good to see clubs like hope valley endeavour to climb the grades and hope that they have success in doing so and i appreciate the fact (and effort) that cj started up blackfriars (even if i believe that playing with old scholars teams is a little close to replicating the good ol' college days).

Any Heccy's boys on here.. good game by the way it was a good battle on a good oval...
anyway is your goal umpire always like that? called a goal when it was a dead set point plus reports two of our guys for absolutely nothing.. kills the game when ppl have to get dragged over to the bench whilst the name goes into the book and we wait half an hour for the ball up to commence... seriously goal umpires have to stay out of it, unless it's something huge they see. doubting a clear point and he reports someone from a result of that, what a farce

The thing is it probably settled our team better to kick ahead...

haha yeh it was a clear point. probably made up for two of our guys getting sent off earlier in the game for absolutely nothing. your guy gets reported and somehow stays on the field- go figure?? anyway thought it was a good fair game- can't wait to play u guys next time around.

Yeh who knows mate.. i think coz the field umpire didn't see anything or hear anything from 5m away he was allowed to stay on...

Yeah had a bit of a lucky day! That looked like that hurt when u got hit with the heavy ball! All in good fun! Look forward 2 playing u guys next time around. I'll try to be less annoying!

[cj_blacks]

haha i didnt know it was the ball till back at the pub after i thought the bold bloke smacked me in the head. i copped a fair bit for it aswell. had no idea where i was when i got up.

[Shirtfront]

What club are you from Sharky?

Not from 1 club, moved over from interstate years ago and have taken a real interest in footy in the northern suburbs, spose my home club would be modbury but only due to the suburb i live in. Watch all games though, Gaza, Broadview, TTG, Mod, Hope Valley, Athelstone. Keep my ear to the ground for all clubs.

what did these valley boys do to get sent off? red or yellow card?

[The Real Number 3]

CJ, who's the lad at Salis Nth that is associated with your club somehow?

[Shirtfront]

Who are these players that should be still playing at Hope Valley??

Birdwood - P Low, A Rowett, J Curtis, R Williams. Broadview - C Appleby, B Appleby, R Richter.
Gepps Cross - J Palmer, J Phillpott, A Lunn, T Holyrim, D Moore. CBCOC - N Piliciwecz
Mount Lofty - B Burch. Uraidla - M Anderson

9 of these players played in our U/17's premiership a few years back. A few of them have said if we can get up to
div 5 they'll look at coming back. I know it does happen to a lot of clubs, but i guess where I was going with it was defending
sharky's comment of us not being proud of our club and explaining how tough it is to get higher up when we constantly lose
these talented youngsters...

Did some asking around after your reply, think you missed T Wright (TTG) and M Stevens (Broadview) off the list, both Vice Captains of their respective clubs. Probably would be a handy inclusion to that list you wrote up before.

[The Bartman]

Na. Dont need M Stevens. LOL.

Haven't seen him play so not sure but T Wright is quality.
