SAAFL division 5 2013

Fine, go watch it, doesnt change the fact a grand final replay between two first grade sides shouldnt take precedence over a reserves final.

I agree entirely with you morell. Great that we are on the same page!!!

I agree....the D2R should be the curtain raiser to the D2 GF where ever it's played.

[Punk Rooster]

Pffft bad luck.

D5 > D2R

Begs the question

Could a D5 side beat a D2R side?

Nice try... that joke is sooooo 2009

Good to see Havens get a flag, highlight of the day an over exuberant holding the ball call resulting in the umpire popping his shoulder out.

That was f**king hilarious.

X2. We couldn't stop laughing. Never seen that happen before.

Thats what he gets for paying a shit free when the games in the balance.

We said the same thing. He was making head scratching decision in interesting areas of the ground.

B grade panned out almost exactly how I thought it would. This is a convo from April 3rd (page 36)

B grade ladder-
1. Adelaide Lutheran
2. North Haven
3. Elizabeth
4. Woodville South
5. Kenilworth
6. Trinity
7. Glenunga
8. Para Hills
9. Fitzroy
10. West Croydon

Give you the hot tip. Get ur money on Elizabeth B grade the take the cup this year, will be the strongest B grade side EFC has had!

I dunno...the B grade comp was pretty good last season. Adelaide Lutheran and North Haven both had 15 game winning streaks (Luthies carried over from the previous year), plus Woody South Bs played in the Div 5 Grand Final the year before last before getting relegated in the most unlucky curcumstances.

It appears that there will be a triple header at HQ this week....ie the D5 replay, D2R and D2 GF's.... more bang for your buck.....as FC would say ....dribble away...

[Footy Chick]

Actually

It's D2R, D5 replay and D2

Dribble away

should have 'in no specific order'.

[Cohiba]

So much for having D2 as a stand alone final series. Been given an alternate venue for the D2R final.....Hope Valley

[Footy Chick]

I reckon the replay should be Friday night, c'mon Kookas and Cats - just agree to a Friday night game!

Neither club booked footy trips next weekend I hope

What about Saturday night after the D2 game?

[Footy Chick]

Twilight game, I like it!

What about Saturday night after the D2 game?

Must admit.... hadn't considered it....Playing Devil's Advocate... I'm wondering how the league would think about having a reserve grade final played after the D2 game. Anti Climax, Presentations, the Oval after post match celebrations by the winning D2 team, volunteers and infrastructure.

Obviously no Plan B in place by the League....IMO...

You would think they would have a plan, just in case. It obviously wouldnt happen often, but its always better to be safe.

I reckon having the D5 A grade GF after the D2 game would keep more people involved at the ground afterwards. As well as the crowd there to watch the D5 game. Kilburn was packed for the D5 game on Saturday, so I dont see why it wouldnt be just as packed this time around. There might even be more people that were watching their own divisions GF's that might wanna come watch a close grandy between the Cats and Kookas.

[Cohiba]

The fact the there is D5 replay is a testament to the type of match it will be but clearly someone is not going to be happy with the specific scheduling of who plays when of three Grand Finals on the same day at the same venue. The 3 Finals themselves should be value for money.

Just move the Div 2 local port derby GF to Alberton, then Div 5 can go please themselves at HQ
