Heard the reason Portlock was out because of an infected elbow.

I dont like winging about the umpires but 5 disgraceful decisions gave free kicks to willunga which resulted in goals. I was listening to the coverage on the radio while watchin the game and it was fair to say i wasnt the only one thinking that the umpires were the worse we have seen at the bay for a long time.

Cuzzy, I would have to agree with you that there was some shocking umpiring going on in the game, but I would have to also add that some of those goals you mentioned were given away from undisciplined acts from the Bay players. As frustrating as it is to have a free kick given against you when it shouldn't have, giving away 50m penalties won't help any team. I reckon I would've seen at least 6 50m penalties given away from Encounter.

was talking to a bays player after the game, he said he questioned one umpire in particular about the way he was umpiring the game during the game and the umpire said i dont care what you think this is my 5th game of umpiring and im doing it for the money like everyone else out here. Two of the 50 metre penalties were prob legite, eg throwing the ball away ect once a free kick was awarded the rest were simply a joke. Anyway thats not harp on about the umpires, where was portlock, why wasnt he playing, scott brown has him not only stiched up on the park but also mentally aswel by the sounds of it.

Is Scott Brown back playing now?
I did hear the same about Mitch, he has a minor issue with his elbow and was required to sit the week out. Prob not a bad choice because he can now get two weeks rest and only miss the one club game as the injury will keep him out from the assosiation side (if selected).
Interesting to see what the out come with the Mount Compass V Saint Snr Colts will be, I am not sure how many guys on here keep track of the colts but its a very close league this season with the top 7 all great contendors and the bays are now flying high with a great win over Willunga.

[cuzzy]

yeah scott is back playing, played last week and this week just gone, kept his fitness up over the injury period, was keen to play earlier but doctor would not let him. To his credit walked back into the bay lineup and has been in the best the last two weeks i think.

[BJ Ernest]

Yes he had an elbow infection and was unable to come up although he wanted to. He enjoys the challenge of Scott Brown and has had his colors lowered but really what good is tagging one player when guys like Carnevale, Baxter, Dobson, Mcgowan and co can all do as much if not more than he can. Food for thought for opposition sides! (and may help Mitch get a kick )

Association this week and if the elbow is right he will play. But selection is the first issue and hopefully the squad is pretty close to the one picked although i have heard a few players are starting to pull out.

[Flying Ant]

Sorry if its been posted already but where is the Association game being played?

[LuvsFooty]

Association game is being held at Strathalbyn, which I must say is in terrible condition.

Thanks LF. when will the association side be finalised?

[Goldberg]

Surely if the ground is in "Terrible" condition, it could & should be moved

[LuvsFooty]

the U15's and U17's will be named on Wednesday night, I think the open team will be named after training on Thursday night.

[Toughcall]

What I would like to know is why the association game isn't played on the best oval in the league?
The Goolwa Oval wins this honour by a mile. Definitely the best oval going around.

Simply Bcos Strath is Centrally Located.

I agree that the Goolwa oval is in the top couple in the league, but the changerooms are an embarassment.

dunno about the home change rooms but the away ones are a joke, they have enough room in them but the shower area is s%#t house, not even a toilet attached to the change rooms. If you play away at goolwa and you want a shower dont bother, would get a better shower standing under your own tap in your backyard. Dunno if you would say the oval is that great either, unless it rained this week the oval would be so hard its not funny, played there round 1 and still have bruises and cuts from the ground. It was like falling on concrete

It's been a couple of years admittedly but I was more talking about the toilet and shower facilities in the away rooms. They are not bad, they're non-existant. The only reason I used to have a shower there is because it was a long drive home.

[LuvsFooty]

Cuzzy has cuts and bruises from an oval during the worst drought on record.

[BiGfOoT SaSqUaTcH]

Must agree on Goolwa having shocking change rooms! Barely enough room is more like it! But the oval is quite good!

Yankalilla have slightly improved their away rooms, changing the Crazy Horse like podium shower! Only problem is that the water now struggles to drain away and runs down the side of the change room soaking poor blokes bags & their clothes.

[Grape Ape]

You'd find the rooms at AAMI Stadium a tight squeeze ya big yeti.

[Toughcall]

Hey BJ, how was association training tonight? Was Burdett out? And how about Portlock, will he be playing?
