Deserve to have advantage in B grade footy? :roll: :?

Lonsdale dropped one game in their A grade all year - don't you think as a CLUB they deserve "a little bit of an advantage"?

Where is this "chance of redemption" you speak of coming from?! You blokes haven't dropped a game all year! What are you redeeming? :?

We haven't dropped a game at all in the reserves. I'm just saying we finished top and are playing our first game at a team (who finished lower than us) home ground. Like I said, Im only conversating on how the system is and how it should be. Saying it should be doesn't mean it will be. What I mean by redemption is for a few years ago we had a brilliant chance to bring home the silverware after a almost perfect season only to lose it in the GF. So that still sits pretty raw in some blokes and we will use that as motivation to hopefully be more successful this year.

It shouldn't be the way you put it. It should be the way it is now. Some of us who have won wooden spoons this year would give their left nut to play in any final, anywhere, and you're complaining about a D7R final being played at the ground a senior team have earned for their club. Please. Want to have a say in where finals are played? Play A grade.

Not complaining just commenting and converating. It was more of a comment on how fortunate it's worked out for Lonsadale's reserve side.

I'm only making a comment on how the finals are planned out. I never said that it needs to change. I only was stating how funny it is of how it all works out.

It happens regularly in country comps and SFL in the A grade where finals ovals are all pre-planned/booked.

I think Houghton football club have come along way this season. The A grade didn't win a game last season and the reserves didn't make finals.

To have the A grade be competitive in nearly every game they played in and the reserves make the finals is a lot better than last season.

Not once am I complaining and it is always very fortunate for those that get to play finals. I was just stating on how the locations of where you play your finals at based on where your position on the ladder is, is quite interesting thats all.

I think we're fortunate to be playing Lonsdale Oval, the atmosphere will be electric and that's always something to soak in and enjoy. It's a bit shit when you have to play at lifeless old scholar ovals.

I don't think they do as a player, but a couple of spectators have pointed it out this year
