200 Killer Wasps wrote:First NAFA game I had ever seen and was very impressed with the standard. Ball moved quickly with a lot of skill and an emphasis on long kicking to a player running to position. The umpiring was good, gave plenty of opportunity to dispose of the ball and looked after the bloke with his head over it. As a neutral observer I thought the umpires had no bearing on the final outcome.
Appeared as if they only gave 25m penaties and not 50s and from the B grade no yellow cards. On that topic, I thought that although the A grade was played hard there was no spiteful stuff or cheap shots.
Joel Palmer (23) was my pick for BOG but only just ahead of at least six others. When I saw the shattered Southern Flinders players walk off the ground I was amazed at the amount of young kids they had in their team. Plenty of good times ahead for these blokes in the coming years if they stick together.
One of the biggest crowds I have seen in country footy and very well catered for. No problems getting out, with three lines of cars leaving from different directions a lot of courtesy was shown with each line having there turn getting out of the gate.
Only downside - run out of Coke Zero in the last quarter.
Nicely put Wasp.
