[Counter Punching]

i heard a very interesting rumour about 1 brett lines last night... i wonder if anyone else has heard anything up that way...?

Heard on the grape vine that he is intteresed in trying his hand as an A Grade coach.
Also heard that Ditty will be back with the Sawns and Hayes back in the Lions Den.
I am sure Tilly won't go to Berri even though I as sure they would welcome him.
Anyone heard anthing more about Ramco

[Baron Greenback]

So CN i see the swans have advertised for A grade coach.

Are you putting in for it or staying with the current role you have done the last couple of years??

i heard theres 3 or 4 blokes putting in for swans coach including chuck norris. ditmar to pull the pin apparantly.

Incorrect. As far as I know, Ditty is putting his hand up again.
If Ramco comes in, their first game will more than likely be at home against Wunkar.

One of the other clubs wants to shift leagues as well as Ramco (not to the Indys), which means the SANFL may not allow either team to go or they'd be left with a three team comp.

Brett Lines, after playing about 130 games in a row (give or take) is rumoured to be moving to Adelaide in just a few weeks.

Not sure if he is considering playing from town. He may want to keep his record going.

You media guys should check up on this, i reckon he hasn't missed a game for about a gazillion years.

If Brett is moving must be a very recent decission as I also heard from a very good source that he was interested in coaching the A Grade.
I think you would be right about Brett not missing a game for ages. He played his 100 early this season and I can't remember him every missing a game. Great Club man.

I don't know about Mid Murray I think the SANFL should go with the two team moving to other Leagues.
Morgan only have a few locals for A Grade and heaps of very young guys. So they will really struggle again.
I heard last season a couple of the clubs down there were expecting some guys to play three game a week just to field teams. Not good for the guys concerned.

Pity to see any League fold but it is not the first time Ramco have thought of joining the Indy's ans I am sure Robertstown are thinking that they should move now as it WILL happen in the next year or two.

The RFL supplied umpires to Mid Murray last season and and surly this is stretching their limits.
I know we all would like to see a few of the local umpires umpire away every week.

CN, which "other media outlet" were you suggesting also got the bowls story wrong???

[Dogwatcher]

It's a slippery slope when you start letting other media outlets know about their mistakes

[Baron Greenback]

Haha. I stuffed up, but don't know of the other media outlet getting it wrong.
I didn't write that one.

[Mulligain]

I'm pretty sure the reference was to WIN. To clarify, the story said "Lyrup burst onto the division one scene in style, edging out last year's grand finalists Berri by five."

Note that I said last YEAR not SEASON. In 2007, Berri were grand finalists - they went down to Loxton.

[Baron Greenback]

Very good. I'm never home to watch the news so like I said I didn't see it.
I'll find out if it was WIN for ya Mulli.

[Mulligain]

No great drama mate - it's only lawn bowls after all

[Baron Greenback]

Bwahahaha!
Nothing wrong with bowls! I do enjoy a cold beer while having a roll.

[Mulligain]

Mmmm beer...


Who's going to wine and food tomorrow?

[Baron Greenback]

Unfortunately not I.
Busy moving house.
Never been before so I don't know what I'm missing, but everyone always raves on about it so I was actually keen to go this year.

[Mulligain]

Yeah it's a top day. The day after - not so good.

[Bum Crack]

Yeah it's a top day. The day after - not so good.

It's a better day sucking cold piss in the pub and punting on Caulfield. That's what I'll be doing all day.

[Mulligain]

Yeah I'll be having a look.

Last year a few of us had $50 ew on Master O'Reilly at fixed odds of $11 and they cut our div in halves when Maldivian and Eskimo Queen were scratched.

Kind of defeats the purpose of getting on fixed odds doesn't it!

[silicone skyline]

i'll be in the middle of Loxton Oval, more than likely chasing boundaries

[Mulligain]

C'mon, confidence SS, you'll be right.

Send Billy Winnel and Josh Victor out to open the batting, then sit back with an esky and cheer.
