As they did last week against E Bay, the Creeks jumped out of the blocks with 4 goals in the blink of an eye with the help of a myriad of 50m penalties for players not leaving the protected area quick enough as the umpires were RED HOT on it and continued to keep McLaren at arms length all day. Would also have been a record free kick count for the day i reckon as it seemed every 2nd tackle was either adjudicated as HTB or High contact. It was overkill which tested the patience of players from both teams. A Good win by the Creeks but keeping in mind McLaren did have quite a few players missing and also lost a player in the 2nd qtr with a serious knee injury it seemed. Both teams seems destined for Finals again tho nothing should be taken for granted. Only early days but i think we can safely rule out Goolwa/PE and Myp/Sellicks as Finalists whilst it may take another month or 2 before we can start ruling any more out given the potential evenness of the comp.
On a side note, the Creek Senior Colts have opened the season with successive Draws Anyone wanna back'm for 3 in a row?

Can umpires ever please? Miss free kicks they get slammed, pay too many free kicks they get slammed... Its loose loose situation.
With regards to 50m penalties a stricter interpretation of the rule is always going to increase the number given in a game....

Is this a sign of the future in this footy league cos I hope not
Once again it looks like Peter Galbraith is a magician with his recruiting ability.
Where ever he found Copestick from. Early pick for the medal for me.
Has Gianni hit a wall (not the coaches box as usual) seems the re rioting drive raved about isn’t as good as first thought!
Anyone else got opinions??

Heard this as well.

It’s a little bit after a kick in at about the 2 hr 5 min mark of YouTube
Interested in your opinions all.
