River Murray Football League talk

[slug]

Does any1 know how Mypo went on the weekend, did they win their internal trial

i hear they are good at beating themselves!

[Goldberg]

Is there a better forward line in the RMFL then:

Dougall - Button - Girardi

Weyland/Marchetti - Jackson - Viney/O'neil

Good luck defences

[GWW]

It looks pretty handy.

When will Luke Button resume playing?

[Goldberg]

He played Saturday mate, Button & Kay were both played in the Backlines

I actually think Ramblers are stronger then 2008, with all the Kids like Cowland, 2x Pfieffers, Mason, Vanson etc etc having a couple years under their belts & the Inclusions of Button & Kay (comparing them to say Morris & Matchoss of 2008), the only thing is Dougall is unlikely to play all year IMO.

Kilsby. Sarno. Quinn

not bad at all !!

Big game between those 2 clubs this week, Mannum v Ramblers. I reckon Mannum might get up, mainly because its at home, 11-20.

Jervois v Tailem, the Bluds may get the win, but likely to be close between 2 of the battling clubs probably fighting for the spoon. Jervois 1-10.

Meningie v Mypolonga, the Bears the big improver this year, should defeat the young Tigers by around 61-70.

Take Mypolonga lightly at ur own perril, if Noske, Rossi, & Benbow are unavailable it could be a close 1
Can any1 from Meningie confirm or deny the rumour Benbow broke an arm, & Noske did a bad knee?? Ryder???

Dont know anything about Benbow. He looked fine to me. Noske hurt his knee but dont know how bad, as said before he looked to be walking alright but must say i wasnt looking for it.

Not quite the same class as the others from what i saw sat, although he is pretty handy with his elbows, its a bit of a step up from what hes been playing, next week will be interesting

I didn't say he was in the same class just metioned it was a good forward line.u are right about rmfl it is alot faster game than the Lincoln league!! n pretty sure I didn't throw any elbows either mate !! I did get possible the softest send of ever I forgot there were 2 imps life Members umpiring the game,I heard it was the same in the grand final last year 2,surely there's other umpires from other clubs that can umpire so it makes it even ?? Not saying they didn't umpie well but if there life members they would have a soft spot for them in tight situation!

[the watcher]

I think its about time Mannum stopped blaming the umpires for last year, and if you are so worried about them being ex imp players why doesnt your club supply a few umpires, no one is putting there hands up for the job, it wont be long and clubs will have to supply all the umpires if we dont get some younger ones coming thru, and with the attitude out there thats not gonna happen. If you dont want to get sent off you shouldnt raise your elbow when charging thru a pack, it wasnt exactly subtle and certainly not necessary.

[Rough]

Find me a post where a mannum person or anyone else blames last years loss on the umpiring. In the last 6 months I have not heard one serious supporter mention umpiring as a reason for 10 goal plus loss. The question of whether the situation of life members umpiring their sides sits well is a different one however I understand their numbers are fairly skinny so options are limited. If you reckon Mannum have been sitting back, whining, doing nothing in off season waiting to play Imps again with differnt umpires you are sadly mistaken.

[livefooty]

U couldn't of been at the game mate cause I didn't get sent of for any elbows,neck up parrot !

What was that suposed to mean ?
Mick Nottle is a life member of Karoonda , not Imps, only played a couple of seasons late in his career not that we should let the facts get in the way of a good story.
As i said , find some more umpires , however im sure they will get the same reaction no matter what club there from. Could not be any worse than the previous umpires coach and his brother yet they had no club allegience ?
And yes was at the game and a had very good view of the incident.

From a raised box perhaps?

Your on the wrong tram there Goldy

[words of wisdom]

Froggie = the worst ump in country footy!

[Goldberg]

Only when he Umpires Imps!! No really I think that is a bit harsh there WOW.

[Bazza J]

The umpiring was not too discreet, let's be honest. I went and watched my nephew play and couldn't believe some of the umpiring decisions in the third quarter, 4 directly related to goals to Imps. How can you expect a life member of a football club to not be partial? That's not to say they deliberately 'cheat' but i would firmly argue that they have an uncanny ability to find free kicks in situations and do not reciprocate those decisions to the opposing team.

Unfair to cast judgement on one performance but I will be going to the next one with eyes wide open.

Heard a whisper last night night that Tailem have a few big injuries for this weeks Lokan cup. Apparaently Hogarth, Vickers and Gabb all under an injury cloud, and may not be lining up against the bloods this weekend. Can anyone confim???
