Hopefully Jazz will put his hand up for the APFL assoc coaching job this year, I think most would love to play under him and thats the biggest thing in terms of getting the best team willing to play.He's definately got the credentials.

Please provide explanation for putting united at 3rd? considering they lost half their team.

Good point Benny, I would have thought we would be much higher than 3rd.

Its pretty simple, they will beat all the teams I have listed below them and should challenge all of the teams above. They have lost a few but realistically they have cut out a bit of dead wood.

They have picked up:
Heath Pym (SANFL reserves)
Sam McArdle (SANFL League 2x premiership player)
Will Bantom (Div 1 ruckman with Gaza)
Adrian Mills (SANFL u19's B&F)

MC / moon unit, how did Will Bantom and Adrian Mills go in trial game? did they play? Will they fill the voids left by Serle, Broad, Vandenberg, CCC etc.?

Out of those only Millsy played Benny. Not sure if those 'voids' need filling as I don't think any of those players played more than 10 games last year so we obviously did ok without them for most of the year.

[The reigning Ben.C]

winning 10 games is enough to get you in finals.

Anyone playing trials this weekend? We got Eudunda at Eudunda (full 4 quarter game)

[Swamp Donkey]

Where and against who are Mallala playing Swamp?

At Mallala Vs Nurioopta on Saturday

[boozehound]

Quote from Jumbo on div two forum.....
Going on the trial game Vs smithfield and having watched a few other div 2 trials i would say 8-10 position is where you guys are at Booze and thats being generous.

So jumbo? Which is it? Oh the result of your game isn't important but a game that we win by 15 goals indicates we will be 8-10...you have some serious credibility issues....

Let me spell it out for you Boozehound if its all a bit too foggy for you

1) clearly you are a wannabe detective with a fair way to go - back to the books
2) the Div 2 post in question was written by "keen observer" who is not me - J. U. M. B. O.
3) suggest you direct your grizzles to that poster
4) and most importanly - why would I attend or even give a rats about a Eastern Park vs Smithfield trial game? You might consider it interesting and even important but 99% of the football world not directly associated with either club certainly dont. If there is something I could care less about I am yet to find it!!! Did you win against a side 3 Divisions lower? Well done but I don't care.

Oh so very sorry Jumbo...sincere apologies mate....must have had one or two beers when I read this......

Signman you cant be serious. Scott McCardle needs 3 successive preseasons to get to a descent fitness level. Plus he's a mug.
