SAAFL Div 6 2008

He's hard to match up on, but not a hard player. Doesn't play for hard ball gets, never see him on the bottom of the pack or putting his head over the ball. A good player nevertheless, agile and a smart footballer. And I would say he did play most of the game in the forward line, bar a couple of short stints in the guts.[/quote]

From what ive seen of him i wouldnt exactly call him soft![/quote]

Neither would I, but I wouldn't say he was a hardnut either.

The point I was making out of all this was that he floated around their forward line most of the day. Smart forwards know where to be when a handball is dished out from a tackle or bottom of pack or when the ball spills from a marking contest.[/quote]

now your backtracking..warburton is a tough nut dont worry about that..maybe he didnt have to do any tough work this game because it was a stroll in the park..btw allen is a top player as well

[Q.]

Meh, not backtracking, just described how he played on Saturday and the way he played against us last year. I'll stick by my point that he doesn't play for hard ball gets, doesn't make him entirely a soft player, doesn't make him a hardnut either.

In my opinion Allen would have been BOG on Saturday.

quichy s a slut is what he meant only joe king beefas the slut(pizza slut)

He reckons you were the one knocking over the kids to fill your plate. I say you both were

thank you, i was only droppin the shepherds in to protect precious, the kids are all bigger than me and they are only 8, so beefa was on my shoulders, this was the only way to match them in height

in regards to the west croydon b grade coming out late, we (the players) had no idea that we were due to go back on the oval.didnt see the umpire come in and tell us to hurry up or anything and most of us were shocked to see the heccies boys already in there spots. but i guess the coach is responsible for having us out there on time, juast another x to put next to his growing list of bad points. and then wonders why no one will train or respect him(we miss hawkeye) he took us from nothing to a finals side and now we cant even be competitive,very dissapointing

so are you saying that hawkseye is your b grade coach from last year...

...which would make him this years A grade coach?

HAWKEYE and HAWKSEYE are not the same person, its all in the spelling. hawkeye was alan someone, correct me if im wrong axe

How is everyone finding the umpires this season? We had a couple of shockers last week.

[factor]

Why Hope valley what do they have i have only seen CLG and they looked pretty good

[jake the snake]

saw abit of the clg v heccies game and clg were all over them, shouldve won by allot more!

spoke to a colonel light player that day and they apparantly had 6 quality a graders missing!

[factor]

So the only question is in round one how do they go from being 35 odd points up and losing..??? I think they will be the team along with HV..again have not seen too much but have had the mail they are a good side

complacency? last year when 6 goal up at 3/4 time they went on and smashed teams....doesnt happen in div 6...maybe a good wakeup call!

It shouldn't matter who or how many players teams have 'out' - they need to make sure the ones that are 'in' can actually play and win games without the 'outs'. That's what makes a successful team IMO.

[Q.]

The current top four will all be serious GF contenders, can't see anyone else getting close. Hard to pick a top two out of that four so early in the season.

in the 1st half CLG shuold of been up by alot more, but in 2nd half u were lucky to win considering the amount of time spent in heccies forward line especially 3rd quarter but that footy
