What happaned to #5 from CLG this week, noticed he wasnt amongst the goal scorers, injured????

yes..and hes got a few mates..

Is this the same stewart that played for lockleys a couple of years ago and always seemed to go missing or "injured" in the big or hard games

Didn't play CC17 along with another 5 or 6. Gunna really stretch there depth in the next few weeks until they get some players back. No excuses though WC were very good as were Trinity and Lockleys.

I know of one game he missed!! Lockleys First final last year

No mate i dont know him, i just keep a watch on the scores etc, i suppose newspapers, best players and goal scorers, can be misleading at times, i just remember not seeing him feature in any of those harder games or losses...

div 5 and div 6 are very different in skill level, WCFC or LFC of today would not beat Plympton for example..and ive seen enough to say that..moneys got little to do with it, WOS BOS dont pay a cent..i happen to know there is plenty of $$ floating around in the top 5 in division 6 still..have you seen any div 5 football lately? i can make my assumption because i have seen 1st 2nd and 3rd in div 6 and they are not as good NOW as the 6 promoted teams of the last 3 years..thats just my opinion..its not right or wrong..

I would think that Ingle Farm would be a fair barometer to support your case, they had about a million points against this time last season. I'd have to agree that GG would be the best team that has come up recently with WOS not far behind, WOS was better all-round, GG had too many stars.

[Q.]

You're only as good as your weakest players. The bottom few players in the A Grades of Division 6 teams would not be getting games in the current Division 5 A Grade teams.

[dee man]

zedman i am 150%behind you on this one.
you actually stole my thunder a bit because i was going to post the same opion tonight.
their are no teams in div 6 at the moment and with the same team that are near the quality required to play finals in div 5.
i believe alot does have to do with money but more has to do with club cultue.
also believe with no disrespect that a few of the coaches would not be able to make the step up.
each club is going to disregard on that last line but if you become independant for a moment,and when you get the chance listen to some of these guys and watch carefully their tactics and lack of them you will see what i mean.
but then again you get what you pay for in alot of cases.

I agree Zed with the comparisons of LFC to WOS & BFOS...And money's got little to do with it. In fact I understand that at Rutland Ave. the recruiting budget toughted earlier this year by some past players, remains untouched, a tribute to the coach and players new and old.

I'm not sure about WC or LFC or TOS or CLG or KFC OR even the Mountain Men defeating a D5 top side, I recon they could, certainlly more than competitive on their day.

The one thing I think LFC may offer still, is further growth & development as a team, due to their current age. For example I recon most players are better players at 22 than they were at 18 and of course most are far better players at 25 & 27, than they were at 22. So hopefully the Deez if they stay together, which they have done for the most part since Under 18's. And keep adding the odd recruit, could move up the ranks with this added development and growth. Allthough probably not with the succession of Back to Back results of WOS & BFOS, that we all know is a truly magnificent effort and lots of things have to go right for that to occur, on and off the field.

BUT of course we are still waiting for that first result, it can't be too far away. Thanks I was bored too

Probably gunna disagree there Zed, happen to think at least 2 teams in div 6 now would be in the top 5 in div 5. Personally didnt think Hectorville were in the top 3 best teams last year when you look at teams when they were full strength. But they played great footy in the finals and now have set there season up in div 5. Well done to them. Again same as Zed this is just my opinion.

no worries watchdog..my point was i have seen the best in div 5 the last 3 years and the 2 teams you mention wouldnt be in the top 3..maybe top 5 but even then i dont think so..div 5 is a fair competition..very tough games..good comments though

[zedman]

cheers darth..got the boys brains working

as a few have said as well..the top teams in div 6 may still have upside in them and may emulate the previous promoted teams..but for now they are just a tad under them..imo of course
