Mind you, Ironbank will need to take a massive step up to beat Mt Barker after a very average showing against Bridgeys. Worst first half of A Grade football I've ever seen. Would expect plenty of tipsters to jump on the Mt Barker bandwagon for next week.
Uri's v Mt.Barker was a great game of footy to watch. Nothing like an old fashioned shoot out. Uri's lost Loffler, Ebel & Moulds all before half time which certainly hurt them. Ebel & Moulds tried to come back on but were clearly struggling. Loffler had surgery on the weekend to repair a badly broken nose and you'd expect would miss at least a couple. Mt.Barker destroyed Uri's in the ruck. Thought Sutherland was probably Uri's best but as he does he never puts himself in the best players. Full credit to Mt.Barker though they were the better side on the day, ran and worked much harder and thoroughly deserved their win. Should push for a top 3 spot from here. David Murphy would be the hardest player in the competition to tackle. Gets a lot of frees as a result of high tackles. That would be about the only advantage of being 5ft tall footballer.
