scorpian , trinity have not been around long have they? lot of good lads there though

from the SAAFL website about Trinity OS...

The Club was founded in 1917 and played scratch matches in its first year of existence. After three years in the City and Suburban Association, it became a founding member of the West Torrens District Association in 1921, and inadvertently was responsible for the Association's demise at the end of the 1926 season. Between 1921 and 1926 the Club won the premiership four times and was runners-up twice, and along with Croydon Union dominated the competition to such an extent that other clubs drifted away. Underdale applied to join the SAAFL in 1927 but had to wait until 1928 when an A2 division was formed. Club captain Mick Spain, a 5'6" goalsneak, played for 16 seasons and topped the A1 goalkicking in 1932. Another captain Alf 'Pug' Rule was hot favourite for the 1920 state amateur lightweight boxing title but was disqualified on the grounds that he fought "for a few bob" in 'Dingy' Rowe's tin shed on the Port Road at Hindmarsh. The Club was a real force in the SAAFL winning the A1 flag twice and playing in 7 A1 Grand Finals in 8 seasons, so it must have been a real surprise when it did not reform after the War. Nevertheless, the team spirit among the players was so strong that regular reunions of past players were held right up until 1970.

Here is what i have heard..CLG are spending 30 grand...surely not as for WOS i would not be too sure...also would think that Heccies would be paying there big guys a couple of dollars

James Bentley certainly doesn't play for free!!

who is james bentley ...u guys write some good stuff on here but u sure do right some absolute crap

There is a lot of crap - you are write - oops I mean right!!!

30k is a ridculous amount, doubt that much is spent otherwise they would be winning by alot more, i think the salary cap is around 30k in saafl, think there is only 2 people getting paid at heccies dont take my word, get a drink card if you win in A grade, we have got a few more sponsors this year thou, dont see the problem paying your players money if you got it, which clubs in div 6 have pokies??

JB gets paid a can of soft drink and chocolate bar at the end of each match

[human blanket #3]

you guys need to get over the fasination with clg paying players....good club, got facilities, good rooms, good coach =success not $$$

westminister would have to have one of the best away changerooms and interchange bench in the league. a little bit of a difference from going to WC to WOS changerooms

ok you got me. its a beer and pie

[factor]

Ok to put this paying thing to bed..On CLG how many guys do they have that played at Vic Habour playing..???? for free..??? and is someone telling me Harvey plays for free..???

WOS I would say are paying Ohara...

Heccies are cetainly playing...

Now to this week Wc have there 3 midfielders back who were dropped last week due to being on the piss...WOS have injuries Lockleys the smoky of the comp to continue smashing teams..the other games all easy..

Question Asanari where is he from..??? did he play div 2 for TTG

[Q.]

CLG, Heccies, Hope Valley and WOS are all paying players. At least the Hope Valley posters have some integrity to not play us for fools with a denial card. Winners are grinning at the moment (and rightly so, payments or not), but in the last game of the year there can only be one who takes the cake... and whose money has been well spent.

[factor]

Well put Quichey.....the chocolates is all everyone wants

asanari has been at brahma lodge for 100 years i think he had a run in the country 1 year riverland maybe goes alright for a bloke who's 39!

[factor]

amazing he is on fire....12 in 2 great going.....anyone know of injuries in the league for this week..will determine my tips

[S Demon]

CLG must save money by pinching other club's match balls. I believe one of your footy's now has HVFC written on it? scottroo, can you have a look for it. We'd love to have it back....

...also, well done to Houghton and Hectorville's coaches and some of their players for coming back to the club for a beer after the game (even after losing). CLG should look to these 2 clubs on how to go about it.
