Beaten comprehensively in the middle all year, shows the difference a good ruckman can make. Div 5 for the first time for us since 2002 as beef said.
Glenunga v Gepps GF I'm tipping, open race for the medal, maybe Armstrong at Pooraka.
On a final note, I don't take too much personally in this game (copped my fair share on Saturday from the faithful) but Gepps Cross really need to have good look at some of what comes out of the mouth of their 'supporters' under that verandah. One particular incident of a racial nature towards one of our lads on Saturday as he came off the ground could've ended really badly if it wasn't for early intervention. I'm all for banter and a bit of a laugh but if you're going to get it as wrong as you did, I'd at least look at putting a fence in front of that area, as there will be interaction between players coming off the ground and supporters at some stage that will not end well with some of the verbal tripe that gets thrown out. The Gepps players were great and the on-field leaders of that club I have a lot of respect for, unfortunately can't say the same for the boundary riders.
Pag I thought you had a bit more intelligence than what you have just written! Third and fourth hand info just doesn't cut it mate!
There was NO racial slur made, a comment was made on how much a Salisbury player looked like Leon Davis and it was that which made the player come into the area where he should never have come. The lad wanted to play the racial game but it was a glib but honest comment and he was at fault by coming back into the front of the group then bleating "don't touch me"! It was also a nice gesture of him to tip the Salisbury trainer on his back in his volatile tantrum!
When your backyard is perfect, then maybe come back but get the facts firstly because you are a fair way off the mark!
BTW, he does look like Leon Davis and that's not being racial but observant!
Not sure Salisbury can throw too many stones either but to each his own.
