You'll be a tad early if you front up Saturday there Indian... A grade game is on Sunday.

B grade qually on Saturday @ Birdwood cycling track (versus the Cabbage)

Be good to see you out there either day anyhow mate, be prepared for a recruiting drive from the short bald one though...

[The Indian]

Cheers for that, Would've rocked up Sat for sure. Guess it will be a sunday arvo session then.

Yeh should be a corker game, and no doubt a few draughty's on the cards

[the wonder elephant]

good to here from you indian where were u sat heard you were gonna be at lofty ? will be good to catch up sunday ..hows the shoulder or collarbone mate ?

[Justquietly]

TDU - see your POV but have to agree with GTS, it's not so much a toss of the coin, I reckon Lofty have the edge. A well-earnt win going into the finals and playing against a team that hasn't beaten them all year, my $$'s on Lofty.
As for the games on Saturday, your b grade FF couldn't miss a f'n thing. He was a dead eye dick and just went about his game. Agreed that it was a top game of b grade. As for your number 66 and his weak shot on Warby, just gutless.
Kartinyeri in your A's was pretty good, mind you he isn't accountable. Which is fine when your team has the ball and you're hanging around the middle on your own, but if IB turn the ball over it can put a lot of pressure on your defence. But I agree with GTS, Kartinyeri on his left, over the shoulder - great goal.
Lofty faded which is a bit unusual, holding about an 8 goal lead I thought "here we go"...but they dropped it and IB made the most. A good weekend coming up, except having to rin Stuart O Grady to find out how to get the the Lofty Blackwood game.

[the wonder elephant]

jq warby was givin it out as well mate but no.66 can go a little over the top at times few of your lads in the same boat but thats finals type footy i guess play on ....

[Justquietly]

Fair enough.
Heard a rumour on Saturday that The Grainge was to be re-appointed at B&F vote counting on Saturday night, any players confirm?

[the wonder elephant]

hey lofty boys who is the bgrade coach maddo or fleety ..was on the ground most of the game and fleety didnt shut up telling maddo to do this and that telling players where to run and to get out of his way ...just a polite question ??

[Justquietly]

Maybe Fleety should worry less about yapping, cos i saw him talking up a storm to your FB as well.
if I were Maddo, I would have handed Fleety a bottle of shut the hell up.

Both the A & B grade games at Lofty were great to watch. Reckon IB will get a few quality players back in the B's. Also thought a few players were a bit quiet than normal, I'm sure that will all change now finals are here. Does anyone know if Naught's is alright? Didn't look to good on sat all iced up.

Correct Rock, arguably the two best performers this year in McLean (CHB) & Sodomka (C) were missing on Saturday, both will suit up this week now that the serious stuff has started I'd imagine.

Naughto was moving quite well on the dance floor Sat night... and as GTS mentioned earlier an absolute gun, when firing he is nearly untouchable... He's had a tough couple years with injury so fingers crossed he hasn't copped another on the eve of finals.

[Amateur Footy]

Naughto will be fine...we just need a Defibrillator to get his heart started

Saw the Country Division final on Saturday at Kangarilla in the A's between Kersbrook and Meadows and it was certainly a very entertaining game of football. Obviously it hurt Kersbrook not having Roger James in the lineup but they looked to have it in the bag at three quarter time and after a couple of missed opportunities in the last quarter Meadows got on a roll and took the game out. Thought young Farrugia did well on Dawe early but Chad worked his way into it as the game went on and Brett James and Kane Paues certainly had good games as well. Meadows had several good contributors and it'll be interesting to see if they have enough to be able to beat Kangarilla this weekend at Callington.

Cheers 2 Old 2 Slow. Would imagine McLean & Sodomka will sharpen up that B grade side just that little bit more to go the next step. Thought there was a height issue there in IB backline that McLean would normally balance up. Must say IB defence has been rock solid all year.

yeh Chucky certainly does the job asked every week back there... And to have a smaller bloke on Fleet is a real risk with the set of paws he has, dare say that match up picks itself for the next encounter.

And as for Sodomka, just hope the opposition dont play 2 blokes on him as we end up hearing about it all night...

[rock]

Yeh, you're right Chucky is the man for that job. Not to knock Hanny or Hampy but just too much height and speed for those boys. Donks will tell us all about it anyway... regardless. You know that.

[Yoda]

well sodomkadidnt play why is that? he goes very well from what i am told, ironbank sure have had a good year as a club. TV had a good win yesterday will be a very interesting one between them and kersbrook this week, i herd they will have a few back this week which will help them eg fox will really help them out in the ruck. so who will win this week in div1 boys? any tips for div2 as well?

[Banker]

Whos playing this week in the div 2 Yoda? Im not expecting the HFL website to be updated for the rest of the season now, wait untill wednesday i guess?

Does anyone know when the Mail Medal count is? It seems i missed my invite

[GetTheSherrin]

banker, the medal vote is normally the week b4 gf i think??

yeah sodomka will be a good inclusion for sure. didnt do much against us last time though..

weve also got too players to come into the a's nxt week so we'll get a couple of quality players back in too.
