When I'm the team's leading goalkicker for the year, you know we had a ****** season.

You know what they say though, past performance is not an indicator of future outcomes.

Ah don't have a whinge, no good hiding from the facts and you know it wasn't intended to disrespect your club - I just don't understand how some one can say you were "Largely competitive" when clearly, statistically speaking you were not.

Plus those facts were not for you, they were for him.

I've no doubt HFC will be more than competitive in 2018, your best 21 is pretty good, especially if Cam is fit in the ruck for most the year, and i have no doubt the new coach will bring some players to add to the depth. Next year looks bright for the Raiders... but it doesn't change this years results.


Totally agree about this year, cant change the facts on that at all and all we can do is improve. Ill let other blokes judged what happened in 1948 and how that has a bearing on what happens next year.
As for the new coach bringing players, as pointed out by a poster at least they will be used to the 100 point losses lol



Actually the previous edition of the Houghton club won the Torrens Valley Football Association grand final 10-14 to Lobethal 9-7.
Sorry Informer not taking the piss, know what what you are alluding too but had to look up 1948 results and that is the truth.

as we know, the gap between D6 and D7 is at least 10 goals. If they add a cutla they'll be very strong.


You and I clearly have different ideas about what constitutes "largely competitive".. I like Houghton so don't want to bash them, but here's the facts:

Wins: 0
Highest Score: 81
Highest Score Conceded: 195
Times Conceded 100+ : 12/18
Times conceded 150+ : 8
Average Losing margin: 76 points
Loses by 100+ : 7

Scoring shots: Averaged NINETEEN scoring shots less per game
Reached 19 (or more) scoring shots in a game: 5
Failed to have 10 or more scoring shots on 6 occasions.

What ever type of spin you try and put on it, they got ******* pumped this year. Competitive games came against Mawson Lakes and Fitzroy when they were clearly switched off end of year - and a good effort vs Elizabeth.

May be competitive in D7 but don't try and tell everyone they were "largely competitive in 2017 D6"
I said they weren't disgraced and were largely competitive.

None of the above changes that assertion. Being disgraced to me means forfeits, 40 goal losses, life bans ....

Houghton did none of that and had losses of less than 5 goals 6 times. That's competitive.


So going by your logic greenies will start $1.10 fav in div 6.

Sorry mate I've been busy! :lol:

No, they won't start as $1.06 as the gap between 5-6 is negligible compared to 6-7.

I do however think that Greenies would make finals next year, there you go.

Congrats to Matty, reckon it's a good appointment. He's done well with Brahma B grade and he's ready to go do his own thing. Good fit.

He should've been offered the Brahma A grade gig.. reckon they missed a trick there.. their loss is Houghtons gain!

Good luck next season.
