I suppose when you factor in injuries. Poor old bugger. 100 quality games though!

Tips for the week:
United over Hamley by 5 goals
Two Wells over Balaklava by 7 goals
Virginia over Hummocks by 3 goals
Liam Jurrah to take his footy boots off at half time tonight and play bare feet!
If you don't like it, change it. If you don't want to change it, it can't be that bad!

Hahaha - my mistake SD - your mob played sooo well in the big game at HOME in september didn't they - don't know what I was thinking really ..... record still shows HWE as the premiers for 2008 played at Mallala vs Mallala. Out coached maybe - many who are not on here to stroke your ego will say you choked

could also say united choke then couldn't you? 2007 grand final and last year in the prelim... don't see how losing to united counts as choking when we just beat HWE by around two points and balaklava by nine points certainly we were not a certainly were we? i would have thought it was just a home and an away game were mallala were outplayed by a better team

Can't quite see the point of your arguement Jumbo!! History tells you that of the four GF Mallala have played in since 1990 they have won 3. Most people that have any idea about footy would know that in GF anything can happen, maybe a bit different in the B grade when some clubs seem to place more emphasis on winning B grade flags than A grade flags but I guess talking about the majority here.

your logic appears sound Purse.


I’m not so sure Jumbo, I’m of the opinion that to “choke” you must be leading the competition for the majority of the season, then, be widely expected to win a finals series due to your dominance of the minor round, only to eventually lose the final series to another team. This does not sound like the United of the past few years. Unfortunately for the last paper purse, it does sound very much like Mallala in 2008.

I was referring more to the logic around the United win of 2 weeks ago - your definition of the choke sounds pretty good to me and is definitely more apt for a finals campaign.
