An absolute disgrace and embarrassment to what appears an otherwise very well operated club in Fitzroy!

The side we had included 5 guys who couldn't get a game in our C Grade last year, an 18 yr old kid at fullback, half a dozen blokes who haven't trained more than once or twice. Plus a few more who really should be in a paddock somewhere. I honestly thought we were looking at a Kilburn 50+ goal type result before the game but to the lads credit they fought like the mutts they are and managed to walk off with heads held high.
Thanks to the Mawson Lakes guys, good footy club, always respectful and were simply way too good. Schapel, Uern, Reidy and co will run amok this year.

Was exactly that type of umpiring that got us into trouble last year PG

They look like they've made the jump from div 7 very easy.

That shows great spirit Morell, it may be a long year but I think it will be a team building year that will hold you in good stead for the future

Hargreaves will kick plenty this year, but they need to find another target in my opinion.
Some big results on the weekend - not many if any very surprising though.
Will there be a clear gap between the top 3 to the next 3 and a monster gap to the bottom 4?

1. 3rd quarter Ingle Farms George Long as running back towards the goal chasing the ball, about 2 metres in front of his opponent punches the ball through the goal.. Given a goal..
2. 4th quarter when it was tight, Ingle Farms Nathan Stacey crumbs a ball, wheels around and snaps for a goal.. Called touched.. Worse still reasoning "it was touched off himself" :/
Crucial decisions at crucial stages that could well have impacted on the game

If ANYONE has a problem with an umpire, your club has plenty of opportunity to report it to the league without coming on here and claiming cheat.
Makes you and your club look like poor losers (or in this case, winners) and if it's club umpires, only starts pointless arguments.
I'm sure any of you would go spare if someone blatantly called you a cheat without the right of reply.
Feel free at anytime to mention that there may have been some questionable decisions that you didn't agree with it means exactly the same thing
