Not a bad headache to have mind you! Where did all these Volley ball units come from anyway...and where did they learn to jump like that?! Is that your influence Spearhead(them playing that is, not the jumping mate)?

The #21 guernsey isn't still available by any chance is it???

You'll be back in no 21 in a flash LTSO!

Just hope you don't get put in the B's - that would be a disgrace! Straight back into our AFL side I reckon.

On big units, did anyone else notcie the size of Sir Flash? That is one monster unit! I've seen Arnie looking smaller!!!

The negative is that Flash will probably be absent mid year to compete in the Mr Universe competition. HE IS HUGE!!!!!

You're spot on about one thing there DA, Flash is looking well massive!!! He'll be popping footys left right and centre when taking grabs down at FF.

Clearly you're wrong though about me slotting straight back into the A's, more than likely i'll be a pine warmer for the sweets, although if i get to sit down in a pocket next C Hampton id be happy....that way i could knee cap the dude to ensure he doesn't get a run in the A's....we have a keg on it! He was looking pretty sharp on Saturday though I must say, if he wasn't so soft he might be a chance. Doesn't mind telling you about his performances either...you would have thought he'd kicked 15....'No Chris, sorry mate it was only 4...!' Still riding his BOG Sweet B's GF wave i think!

i heard a rumour #21 was taken

Has #54 been retired yet? Heard some gun used to wear it the last couple of seasons. Loves to Slot One would be lucky to get a run in that guernsey!

If Hampto kicked 4 how many points did he spray......1000??!!??

Is Flash that massive or have the fake tan layers just built up over time?

All the volleyball guys have come out of the heathfield school program with Austin and Jones being previous members of the AIS and Huxford, Nielsen and even young Maslin being state team members at different stages of their careers. theres no doubt that these boys can't use their experiences from vball to their advantage for lofty this season. it looks like a daunting task for opposition backman trying to outreach these boys. perhaps former colts star and vball legend sam boehm could be convinced to pull on a jumper once again...

Get griffs number and on his case. As far as i know, wads was going to have it. However it is very unlikely that he will play. Sort it out. If i remember i will say something at training.

From memory Stuart Maycock was also a gun U/14's and now an Austrlian beach volleyballer?

on other news, confirmed that Jmac is heading back to mt Barker. Apparently goodwood confirmed match payments with him but didn't follow through. It was a verbal agreement with regards to the coin. So now they are not coming to the party, he is back to the barkeroos. Gun player he is mind you.

Pitty he will be playing in a losing side!

Can anyone give me the details of Kersbrooks trial game this Friday.... might have a little look !

by **Loves to slot one** » Wed Mar 21, 2007 2:19 pm

Sorry Doc, couldn't tell you, interested to see if any of these stars are actually playing though!

When does round one begin again....April 14 is it?

by **FootyMad** » Wed Mar 21, 2007 2:20 pm

V/ballers? You blokes are surely piss farting around are'nt you?

by **ronburgandy** » Wed Mar 21, 2007 2:45 pm

nah there not. most of these volleyballers played jnrs and there all 6 foot 3 plus. some of them are very good players and there all basically under 21. what a bad situation for lofty having all these ruckman!

by **devilsadvocate** » Wed Mar 21, 2007 2:53 pm

FM these volleyballers are the real deal. All massive units with a vertical jump to rival tatiana on any pole.

Jmac goes alright, but he'll tell you all about it like he's an AFL player. Really likes himself Jmac.

If they are massive units that can jump and play then........they must be the complete opposite to you DA.
Bet they don't have an ugly mug like a smashed crab as well mate!!!

You know I love ya!

It hurts, but yeah they're opposite to me.

It was shattering on sat at the trial. Jono Downes pulled a hammy and when I said 'you're as bad with the injuries as me mate', he replied with 'at least I can play the game'.

Pretty dodge considering he is yet to play an A grade game!

Might take me a bit longer to get a drink out to him next time - if he gets back on the field before I leave!

Apparently they're playing Elizabeth at Kersbrook oval under lights but I don't know what time it's getting under way.

by **BCC** » Wed Mar 21, 2007 5:58 pm

are u sure jono downes didnt take a severe blow to the head as he pulled that hammie... it would be the only logical explination for that outragous call coz he certainly cannot play the game.

by **oldblueeyes** » Wed Mar 21, 2007 8:03 pm

Kersbrook v Elizabeth Friday night under lights starting at 6.00pm and 6 quarters being played.
I can't remember whether all the James bros are having a run but even Roger is doing most of the training drills (looks pretty good).
I understand that clearances are being sought for both Dew and Francou from their original clubs. Carslake from Norwood is another player mentioned.
Richard Kleeman from Lobethal looks pretty capable and the availability of Daniel Mularkey and Malcolm Bergmann adds some evperience and talent.

today i had an unexpected phone call informing me of the sad death of mark (kecks) mechnie.the great man was a legend of the club 2 time premiership player in div 2 days and great allround bloke. the man inspired all around him to strive to get the best out of them selves if he was playing or in the latest times assistant coching in the 2s. he was an inspiration to many especially guys like dogga and myself when we first came to ironbank he was always ready to listen to you or tell you how you could improve .he also had plenty of stories to tell none better than the one where he played with a 17yr old mark ricciuto in wakerie and marvled at the skill of this young man who helped them win a flag up there .mark also played footy at south (league i think)and at goolwa with his best mate hally these 2 also played together at thunder park and watching them was like watching batman and robin at work such was there understanding .you will be missed our great mate will get the club to retire the no.28 thanks for all the good times kek love benny =D>
