2024 Adelaide Footy League - Division 6

[whufc]

Eastern Park copping a huge hit last weekend and putting a dent in not only in their premiership hopes but also to the spirit of the boys still running around.. 2 season ending ACL injuries early in the piece against Ingle Farm. 2 of their best players by far I might add.

Matty Glenn been instrumental while playing for the demons and arguably the best ball user at the club.

Pj Diedrichsen easily the best footballer at EP, he’s the captain of the footy club and a 5x A grade best and fairest winner, anyone that knows him knows his worth around the place both on and off the field.

Shattering for the footy club, both of the boys and everyone else throwing on a guernsey for the demons.

Diedrichsen named tomorrow, good luck to him but that is quick recovery from an ACL

Not sure why he’s named but he 100% isn’t playing.. He’s in bali for a start and his surgery is booked in for next week! Think they’ve just put him down waiting to see if a clearance for another player goes through

Rob Kovacic smelling a flag now....especially given Long Plains are next to chance of playing finals 8 games in.

Well halfway through, and you'd have to say the ladder is pretty much how most people would've have expected it to be before the season - Salisbury, Eastern Park and Fitzroy are at the top, with a block of teams in that next tier, and Units / Eliz at the bottom.

Biggest surprise for me so far is Adelaide Lutheran - I really thought they'd be around the 4th / 5th mark.. the match this weekend against Central United is huge, you'd have to almost think the loser ends up relegated.

St Pauls might be a bit of a smoky over the back 9 - only went down to EP by 40, beat Ingle Farm, smashed Lutheran and fell just short of Houghton. Rosewater could be good if #4 spent more time finding the footy than trying to dogshot players late or behind the ball all day.

3x players with 60+ goals with 9 games to go - Shawn Mansell unreal season so far! 60 goals from 8 games and he didn't play Lizbeff Rd 1.

Very quiet and boring on here

St Pauls 21 points over Rosewater
Fitzroy 11 points over Ingle Farm in the match of the round - Rosenthal 5
Salisbury over Houghton by 6 goals
Lutheran over Central united by 5 goals
Eastern Park over Elizabeth by 200+ (bleedred&blue to tip elizabeth in a close win) - Mansell 15

Any more late minute clearances before June 30 - Kovacic a good in but not sure he is what Eastern Park need to get any better. Got others like him already, strange to see him as 3 points on playhq - thought he wouldve played 25 games or whatever the amount is to be zero.

Norms boys get the biccies and maybe have done enough to avoid relegation?

They'll start favorites this week, Farmers came away battered up badly Saturday.

Give 'bleedredandblue' your log in details did you???

Late transfer out of Salisbury, Andrew Davidson-Parish off to Lutherans to pull them out of relegation.

Good luck little Red!

Just quietly, the acquisition of Cam Tiggemann to Houghton has gone under the radar.. similarly with them pushing the top side and going down by 28 points last weekend.

Eastern Park heading up to their ground which would've copped all the rain and be in horrible condition.. could be the ingredients for an upset.

Houghton vs Eastern Park - Houghton 22 points
Ingle Farm vs Central United - Units 8 points
Rosewater vs Fitzroy - Fitzroy 45 points
Adelaide Lutheran vs Salisbury - Salisbury 130 points

Good player and an elite kick for div 6. Heard it was just a one off though and going back to Port Augusta this week. Houghton much improved or salisbury down a bit on the day?

All the Hills grounds are still in good nick due to the lack of Autumn rain, would be surprised if Houghton isn't in good condition still, mind you a full weekend of home games while wet and it can change quickly.

i reckon 1mm of rain on that heap and it's a mud pie... worst ground in SA.

We were the 2 weeks ago. Was the best condition I have ever seen it in, we have had some rain since then though.

Raises memories of the fog, jumping the little creek outside the changerooms and the ducks (maybe chickens) out on the field after 3/4 time

Let’s throw 2 inches of rain on it this week just to make sure

Abandoned game in the Parklands today? Weather/surface?

Not sure how in a Triple Header the Cs and As can play but Bs get abandoned. Surely a story behind this.
