have they announced a team of the century? matty spencer a lock in for Chf?
speaking of their centenary year, i saw in the advertiser, or sunday mail maybe, that the goodwood v shoc rivalry is one of the biggest going around.
can anyone let me know where this rivalry has stemmed from and how it has come about?
i thought it has only been the last 2 years that these 2 sides have actually played each other (maybe a season or 2 more if you go back to the 90's).
and yes, matt spencer a shoe in for CHB (a gun in his day)
Matt Spencer would have to be a lock for CHB,
We played Goodies in a trial this year & I was surprised to see Klemmy still running around. I had a bit of a chat to him & he had retired for about a season, then they got him out for some games last year & is back this year. So barring injury or the like he should be running around.
BOP, I don’t know where the SHOC rivalry has come from. Theoretically, if I had some time at GS, say 3-4 years ago

, I’d probably recall the main rivalries being against Broadview, Edwardstown (pre them running to the SFL) & Uni (especially in the reserves). Not against Shoc, however they had not matched up against each other in years, maybe it stems to GS's time in the lower divisions in the early 90's?
