Thought despite the score line it was played in fairly good spirits, Houghton umpire was good and you could see patches that showed the Raiders were in fact a more improved side that last year. Their general endeveour, tackling pressure and overall foot skills were far better than last season. Unfortunately they just lack the depth and fitness at the moment to seriously press the top sides, but if they end up in D7R next season I'd think they'd be a genuine contender.
I heard Andy Rogers was a smart man.. well I have my concerns over that claim after he chose to run around in the warmer weather wearing a bloody long sleeve!

The top 5 teams atm will be the top 5 at the end of season. The order may change as I reckon Fitzroy are coming big time and Ingle Farm will make a strong run in the back half. Brahma Lodge would be filthy about dropping a game to Salisbury West and that could cost them they double chance.
As for anyone getting within 5 goals of Pulteney of course someone will. It might even be next weekend with Fitzroy the pre season flag favourites starting to show the form everyone was expecting. Elizabeth is the interesting team having smashed all teams until the last 3 weeks. Maybe they have plenty out or maybe they are flat track bullies. Not sure who the coach is at TOS but I do know he is a dead set flog and as for their goal umpire well the league should do something about that bloke it's not even bordering on ridiculous its a disgrace.

Steve Couzner is the coach at TOS. Very well respected from his time at Salisbury, and is doing a wonderful job with a young group at Trinity. Very astute knowledge of the game, and likes to challenge himself by taking on A grade jobs rather than sandbag B grade premierships
The goal umpire is a dead horse that's been flogged enough. Volunteers don't grow on trees

I've been witness to a lot of the incidents people complain about him on here and in all honesty they should have a look in there own backyards before they get on there high horses about a goal umpire..
I hope that's the last time I have to say it, but I get the feeling it wont be

I know AR and he is as smart as he is tall. Nice guy though. Actually wanted to be a F1 driver growing up I am told.

I know where you're coming from and I have heard nothing but great things about TOS since their inception, it has the potential to become ugly if there's a season defining decision that is blatantly incorrect.
You're right though, every club has dirty laundry stashed somewhere.

Houghton - The Raiders despite scores would appear to be a growing club. given the ability to cover so many 'Outs' at the weekend and still field 2x full sides - perhaps a C grade in future for them? No Schutz, Hall, Oswald, Underdown, Furnell, Ferrall, Kolisnyk, Clarke, Jay Szabo is always going to make life hard. Q works tirelessly - can almost hear the air being squeezed out of the ball with every mark.. and Tyson Roling cant kick to save his life.
