Adelaide Footy League Division 6 - 2017

Houghton - Tyson Roling cant kick to save his life.[/b]

Not saying it made a difference, not saying it didn't.. but fact remains Houghton led 2.0 to 0.0 and the next 2 simple shots on goal missed, letting a chance slip to take a healthy lead into the 1st break.. then missed a set shot early in the 2nd quarter, which made Q realise you were no good and he had to start dropping barrells from down town to kick goals

Prop cost the team the game with those misses.

*Edit* - just realised that you guys kicked 11.3 for the day

Ummm....scores were IF 2-6 to HD 2-2 at quarter time 8 scoring shots to 4....don't know about 'chance to take a healthy lead into quarter time'...and IF had 9-14 at one stage and from there kicked 18-6. If it wasn't for the efforts of Q the result would have been much worse. He was clearly the best for HD and despite his attempted barrel he played a very good game

I would have B. Grose in the team of the year before Ward, Bourke and McMurtrie. He gets his 25+ touches a game plus 10 tackles. He would be top 2 with Hooters in our best and fairest count.

Also on ruckman Gannell was my toughest opponent to date.

[Q.]

Having played everybody once now, my feeling is that Fitzroy, Ingle Farm and Pulteney will feature in the last two weeks of finals. I have question marks over whether Pulteney have the toughness for a physical finals campaign, but that may not be a factor on a dry day on large ovals.

Despite being winless, it's been enjoyable playing all the A-Grade sides with games played in good spirit. Salisbury West's crowd takes the prize for most foul-mouthed and despite much being said about Pulteney's arrogance, I found their lads in the A-Grade to be a very humble group.

Very much looking forward to beating Mawson Lakes next week and playing at Houghton in the middle of winter, ankle deep in mud.

Oh PLEASE, you would have no idea who is in the top 2 of the BnF as you are struggling to get into a jog most weeks

If D.Huitema is not leading it then there is something wrong... would love to get a count on how many marks that guy takes a week, would be averaging close to 15 imo

So people, at the midway point, thoughts on the division 6 awards for the following (based on experiences only e.g. can't vote for a ground etc you haven't played at):

Best Ground: Ingle Farm (yes biased)

Worst Ground: Pulteney - just had a strange feel to it for me, maybe it was the open space of the parklands that contributed to it, or the pop up
coaches area?

Best Away Change Rooms: Brahma Lodge - good size, nice and open, has whiteboards to use.

Worst Away Change Rooms: Trinity OS - 15km cross country trek from the ground in a girls school changerooms, very congested, just shit allround. So bad my guys chose to get dressed on the ground instead
Honourable mention to Elizabeth - very small rooms and a blackboard not whiteboard - carn guys black boards are so 1990's!

Best Reserves Umpire: Trinity OS - lad we had was superb!

Best supporter following: West Croydon - geez they turn out in great numbers!

Worst supporter group: Salisbury West - very unpleasant bunch.

Most respected opponent: Elizabeth - loved the way their players went about it, weren't cocky or full of themselves, ease to get along with and play hard/fair.
Honourable mention: Houghton - never give up, never sink to poorer level, out matched but blokes who present themselves full of class.

Best Player D6 seen/played: Dalton Tucker. End of story.

Best Player D6R seen/played: Austin Bailey (Eliz), Fraser Porteous (Pul)

Best BBQ: Brahma Lodge - Fat boy special!

Worst BBQ: Pulteney - sorry just no good.. private school old scholars club, surely you can do better than the very cheap and average snags on offer!

Pulteney's oval had an immaculate surface when we played there #lawnporn
