[Old and Grey]

Hackham shouldnt be allowed into senior comp until they get a good juniors program up and running again. Morphy Parks should try with amateurs - sure you need to start at div 7 but at least they would be competitive.

Pretty harsh but they are continually bringing the standard of SFL footy down and havent shown any sign of improvement for the past 5 seasons.

I don't think you can just lay the responsibility at the foot of these clubs or even Marion (1 junior side) & Lonsdale (who have no junior sides), the SFL should be more accountable for this situation every week. To continually allow clubs to have dual sides in each age group as a feeding ground to seniors for the future while others have none is just ridiculous. It's interesting to see MV has 2 sides in U18, U16 & U14 with 1 side dominating and the other floundering at the foot of the ladder. Similar situation for Happy Valley in the U16s & U14s. Cove, Reynella and Brighton having their 2nd sides play on Sundays.

Demographics of clubs also plays a part in this. Hackham is only 2kms from Morphett Vale. Morphettville Park is in an area where they compete against 8 other clubs (2 of which are Div 2 clubs)for the same senior and junior players. Marion is in the same boat as M/Park. Aldinga compete against 4 or 5 other clubs for players. Lonsdale find themselves in no mans land at times, while Cove have had the biggest influx of kids etc in the last 5 years with all the housing development going on in the area.

As long as this continues the blowouts will remain. Why wouldn't you suggest the M/Vales or the Coves go to amateurs so they can get a competitive game? All seem to think M/Vale could hold their own in Div 1!

Well said Old and Grey, your not Grey yet are ya ???????

surely a reported player shouldn;t be allowed to play until the report has been delt with. The SFL should have delt with it on Tuesday /Wednesday after the game.

You can't just assume that he was guilty I agree it should have been dealt with after the weekend it happened but while Flaggies feel hard done by because he played what if he didnt play the result went the other way and then he was cleared this week? A team like Christies needs all the wins it can get to make the 8.
Also, a similar incident happened in a Lonsdale Morphett Vale game last year with the Pres of the Lions making the complaint! I think the Emus B's coach wasn't even called before the tribunal until finals time even thought the incident happened mid-season? The only officials that should be able to have any say from the sidelines in these matters are SFL officials club officials should have no say in filing reports! What happens on the field stays on the field! And thats my two cents!

I reckon it's a little bit different if it's a club official actually throwing the dog shot! Such as the bloke from M/Vale. But in saying that it must be dealt with that week or not at all?

It was actually the Morphett Vale timekeeper who came forward and said that she would like to put a report in with the Lions as she thought that the act by the Morphett Vale B grade coach was disgusting. Should never be allowed to coach again in my opinion. No one should be able to deliberately knee an opposing player in the head when they are on the ground, especially if you're an official.

I'm not defending the act I wasn't there but if it was such a blatant thing then the umpires would have seen it isn't it there job t report on these things? Also if they were disgusted with it what took so long to take action? If an offence is committed then it should be dealt with that week not 10 weeks later seems like the league needs to get off its ass and set some guidelines otherwise officials are gonna be reporting people left right and centre.

[bass_player]

I totally agree. It should have been dealt with that week. The league seems to just sit on these things hoping people will forget and it will go away.

As for the umpires, I think most of them just turn a blind eye to reportable incidents otherwise they have to complete paperwork and show up to a tribunal hearing during the week. They either don't have the time, or can't be bothered.

[ORDoubleBlues]

I agree NKOTB. I also reckon that some are Hangin' Tough.

While some are only taking it one 'step by step' at a time.

Don't the umps get a bonus if some one is found guilty ?????
If so you would think that they would do the paperwork etc etc.

[WHEELS&DEALS]

The umpires can't even get right the colour tops they should be wearing, they have been told every week that when they umpire morphy parks they are to don the whites, but after 5 rounds they have managed to remember once. Why did they change colours? Is it because they want to be noticed more, there poor performance and decision making makes them stand out enough, consistency is all we ask.

This one was also investigated my the police and the league said that they wouldn't hear the case themselves until the police investigation was finalised. Then there was a number of delays of the tribunal due to the Morphett Vale president being unavailable. Eventually the league said that the case had to heard before the final series and refused any more delays.
