SAAFL Div 4 2008

[Iron Fist]

i am willing to bet my left nut that ryan byrne doesnt get paid. he plays for the same incentives as every other a grader. not everyone plays footy for money. there is a thing called mates and the love of the game. we have looked repeatedly into doing something about the changerooms, but getting a building permit through the adelaide city council is bloody hard - just look at the vic park shamozzle. roughly 10 years rob gerard was willing to pay for a grandstand to be built at park 9, but the fact that the acc wont give us a long term lease and the parklands building thing saw it die in the arse. if you have a better idea on where we can play that is in a central location, then i am all ears. regularly playing at the school isnt an option due to the whole drinking/swearing/fighting thing that goes along with mens footy. phos camden have been a div 1/2 club for a long time and their visitors changerooms are terrible. an under 12's side wouldnt even fit in there! from memory, the visitors changerooms at portland arent exactly spacious either...

May not be the largest but at least they are clean
not full of s***t from the footy club or being used as a storage room and the hot water works!!!

hey fisty things must be different in the footy season I clearly remember the stench of rotting rubbish in the visitors during cricket season several years ago. was injured the times we have played footy there and didn't go into the rooms.

not exactly sure heater, could well be the case in cricket season
i play out there for cricket but have never been in there in the summer
showered in there once or twice on a thursday night when 3 teams are in the change rooms
and didnt nitice anyhting wrong with it apart from it being small.

Are we still talking about the changeroom here ?

I'm backing you in felch, portland will come out and hit some bodies and the princesses will be running scared. Cocks on Byrne, Heff on Waltham, Farrelly on Nicholls cut their supply in the midfield and hurt them on the turnover, that is the way they will beat them.

If That's the best backs you got than you in trouble newman. PAC by plenty

[LMA]

CASH$$$HAVENS under 18s goin well too 'OUZU & co' must be a really good crop comin throu!!
i havent had much to do with them myself but there were a lot of peolple sayin Burridge wasnt the right man for the job! by the results his doin ok???

Big test this week against the Sharks.

Could also go with Hughes, Coppins and Granleese.

Mate Cocksy is the best full back the portland has ever seen, heffernen plays tall small and is tight as a drum and farrelly is a good hard nose defender, in saying that stop the supply out of the guts and it may not be a factor.

If all fails anyway Van Diijk will come off the bench and smash a few heads with the shovel he carries in his back pocket. I know he has a soft spot for the princesses.

[Footy Chick]

Is that why he walks funny

[Felch]

Is that why he walks funny

No, theres another reason for that...

Don,t know much about the other full forwards portland have played against, but B.Hart and L. Forrest 8 goals a piece, looks like it's gonna be a race for the ton between R.Byrne and Cocksy. As for Farrely, Hard, Felch might be the better option.

[Newman]

LMA Cocksy has been playing up forward felch might be able to tell you more but pretty sure cocksy didnt play on Hart or Forrest

You know what they say about braggers Felch..

[ouzo666]

I don't follow anything that is going on I just understand that Felch had a shower in the away changerooms and afterwards another Portland bloke was walking funny. I always thought you were a bit different Felch.

i noticed that on the premiership poll that North Haven tipped 2 take the big 1. If PAOC are the team 2 beat like everyone been saying they are, why are they not ranked number 1? r PAOC over-rated or is a case North Haven pumping themselves up?

i think you will find north haven people vote for havens and so on for each club
more north haven affiliated people on this site then PAOC people
so really the tip at the top is more of a popularity contest then anything!

[Westsider]

Man that Aaron Burridge is in good form.

Pooraka v's Unley By plenty
Portland v's PAOC by plenty, lets be honest
Mitcham v's CBCOC By plenty

im picking 5, 30+ point wins this week boys and girl.

[Footy Chick]

Do we have any Mitcham-ites on here? That's where I'll be for the 2nd half tomorrow..

[Felch]

LMA Cocksy has been playing up forward felch might be able to tell you more but pretty sure cocksy didnt play on Hart or Forrest

Cocks has been playing forward, he didnt play on Forrest or Hart at all. The 2 times in the past he has played on Hart, he has kept him goal-less. Forrest is a bit more mobile though, dont think he would match-up that well on him.
