Serious?? It's round 1!!!! Our challengers are every team in Div 6.! It's going to be an interesting year that will be extremely competitive. Thinking any longer than our next opponent will be fraught with danger! Others can speculate and predict....we won't be doing that....that's for certain. We will respect our opponents each and every week. We are just a pretty even team with reasonable depth.[/quote]
Ingle farm have 3 players who I would consider seriously good footballers. 47 Grae Grant, 29 Nicolas Lynch and 11 Steve Gannell. They run in numbers from the back half, Smart and Hancock mainly, and look to set up play through the corridor. There on ball brigade is evenly spread and runs pretty deep. Spence is the outside run and Pope will work inside. The big forward is 17 Sanderson, pretty agile for a big bloke and a player who will go close to 50 goals this year.
They also have a few young guys who will drift in and out of games but when they are given time and space will expose teams who are not prepared to run defensively.
They also had some good run and some decent players in the 2's. This suggests that the players will need to perform weekly or might find themselves spending time in the ressies. This can inspire some performances and overall can be hard to counter from an opposition coaches perspective (I am not a opposition coach)
Ingle farm will be better for the run over the weekend and I expect to see them only get better over the next 4-6 weeks. I will be looking on with interest this week to see how they go against Mawson Lakes and the Lodge go against Trinity.
