River Murray Football League talk

[SCRATCHIN 03]

What the hell happened in the Mypolonga-Ramblers game? The Tigers up by 6 goals at half time, then got beaten by 6 goals? Can anyone report of this who was there?

Good win for the Blues. There was no doubt about the strength of there list and the result highlights this. Probably an expected result, considering from all reports they have had a solid pre-season, recuited well and definately look to be the league front runners, whereas Jervios are apparently on the slide from the powerhouse they once were.

I went out to Mannum to watch the game against Tailem Bend, and I must say I was impressed by the Eagles. There has been a lot of hype about both of these teams, and many consider Mannum as a top 3 contender. From what I saw, both sides are very improved from last season, and it was a bit of a slog for the first half. Quinn had a good first half then was quite. Then Tailem broke the game out and were comfortable winner by 35 points. I was impressed by Muffy, the bloke hasn't lost his touch, Raidis got plenty of kicks, and Lynch showed some great desperation when the game was there to be won. Hogarth gave plenty of drive into the forward line and Shultz on the wing was good, with a bit of dash. The big man Comer bagged 5 or 6 to top off a good day for the Eagles.

I think the positives to come out for Tailem is there best footy is still to come, but still had a comfortbale win. Andrew Coombe, Crunchie Aspel and Adam Robertson all still have to come into the side, and recruit Matt O'Brien who played in the 2s for some reason.

The bad thing for Mannum is there has been a lot of hype surrounding them, they'll be dissapointed with the loss.

Heard that Aaron Hockey has at best a Very badly sprained Ankle or at worst has broken his leg. Any report from that Drama

Grade 3 torn ligaments Yetti, he's having scans tomorrow to double check though.

Unfortunate for Mannum as he had kicked 3.6 to half time and was playing quite well apparently

Hockey was playing well at full forward gave them a target, also Harte was playing well onball but when both went off late in the third quarter mannum chances of winning became harder

Mypo really did collapse in the 2nd half.

[Panther32]

Anyone got any idea how The great man Trevor "Daicos" Rigney went goaless on the weekend? He obviously didn't play!

[lion heart]

Spoke to Trevor on the way to game Panther he was definately playing. Not sure what happened for the great man to go goalless surely he hasnt lost his leap!

Maybe Hillsy can fill us in.

[BluesBrother08]

Trevor got a big hit in the first quarter and wasn't really sighted after that.

Harden up Rigney! HAHA

[lion heart]

Heard big shane comer got a whopping $450 speeding fine on the way to the game saturday. After match payments he's only $150 in front!

[Farva]

That just shows how speeding is a problem. I would think most people would be happy to get 150 a game, still in front after a $450 speeding fine, the greedy bastard could probably live with that.

jarryd hes a young local

[FootyWiz81]

ok i got a question for everyone

NAME YOUR BEST LOCAL SIDE: 22 PLAYERS

[pigskin]

How many years would they have had to played for the club to be classed as local ie: Harrowfield, Pedler, Rigney etc.... Some of these guys have been at the same for 5-6 years now

[pigskin]

What about blokes like Zadow who was Mannum but is now Ramblers. Is he still local???? Button, still on Ramblers list but not playing, to many if's & buts to do a team like that Wiz!!!!!!

[GWW]

Yeah its certainly a difficult exercise, I'm sure Wiz81 can do a side for Imps though.

I've been thinking that one day soon i'll have a go at doing a "best of" side for each club over the last 25 years (the period of time i've followed the RMFL). Not sure how easy it will be though.

[FootyWiz81]

3 yrs or more since they played there first game at club so yes all blokes mentioned can go into.
ill get onto one very soon, i thnk it will be good 2 c

an yes GWW a best of last 20 yrs would be great,

best locals at each club. ill struggle with the bears but ill try the rest
