To those young "men" for want of a better word, schooled just north of the Gardiner Creek swamplands,
Is that the best you can do? Did some idiot book the end of season trip for 9 September and you tightarse spineless weasels don't want to forfeit the deposit on the airfares?
"Gay Paris" is supposed to be lovely in September. Enjoy it. Gotta be better than playing football and getting muddy. eh boyos. Better pull out those berets you've been hiding with in your closets for all those years and get them dry cleaned.
The men of "Gay Paris", beware, don't bend over for the soap for a few weeks. Scotch are spending September in France.
Good Spray!
On the other matter...
Ivanhoe are like Collingwood supporters. For some reason they are more interested in what everyone else thinks of them than their results on the field (ie all we heard from Collingwood supporters early this year was "When are people going to give us some credit?" and all we hear from Ivanhoe is how good they'd be IF they had all their players. In 10 years the records will list the premiers, not the beaten favourites or the 'best list'.
Give it up we all have injuries.

Drizzle - well said mate I have even heard them complain about some bloke who hasn't even pulled on the boots this year WTF?? Next they might start complaining about guy's who no longer play at OI.
The Late Mail - I hate to echo the thoughts and sentiments of basically everyone on this site but Xavs and Blues are that far ahead of everyone its not funny.
Your Username is spot on buddy! who delivered that late mail?? ;) And I agree the Xav's guys are a pretty decent bunch of blokes on and off the field except for the odd few (1 springs to mind immediatly but i won't name names)

Appreciate the stitch up BR, I realise I sound like a d**k head! But if I were to name all of the Xavs quality mid-fielders I'd be here all day. Johnston, Chatfield, Scanlan and Graham are just a few who spring to mind!

Not sure where all this talk is from about OI and complaining about injuries. Must be supporters, because it certainly isn't coming from the playing group.
Injuries are a part of footy. It is the depth of your club that ultimately decides the success of the team/s (obviously assuming most clubs have their fair share of talented players).

Anyways...Back to the football.
As previously mentioned, 2 massive games this wkend and the one in Camberwell should be red-hot too. It's not often that a side third-bottom on the ladder has so much to play for so close to the end of the H&A season. However, if Trinity pull off a surprise victory on Sat their slim finals chances are still alive and the race for 4th will be well and truly alive. I fancy OS to regroup but if Cultrera can get going and big Rambo fires up then who knows..?
Out at Pine Lodge come 2PM two sides with no love lost between them will be going at it hammer and tongs. There's a lot of recent big-game history with OI and DLS clashes, but this one potentially has the biggest rewards yet for the winner, (depending on whether you rate a B-Grade flag over a possible A-Grade finals spot or V.V.). OI won the previous encounter this year, however DLS have shown a bit of late. Tough one to pick but my heart says DLS and so does the ladder position, so that's good enough for me.
1 V 2 will see two sides trying to get ahead of the pack in a bid for a definite top-two finish. I'm not tipping against a side who kicked 28 goals last week so it's OX for me.
The remaining two games should see the away sides getting the four points but as we all know there's no such thing as a certainty in Ammos football.
BR,
Your eternal optimism is admirable, but the chance of OT making the finals now are 10000/1 at best. With percentage where it is and Uni or OI only having to win one of their last three - it ain't going to happen.
However, the motivation for a win lies in:
1. making up for last week's awful effort at the Pit;
2. harpooning OS's finals chances; and
3. finishing off strong, given the list will remain largely intact over summer and needs to keep working on the new game style.
Point #2 is the strongest, and I trust all bar OS supporters would wish us well in this regard.
As for the other games, Bernies will nail OMs easily, Xavs should nudge the Bloods out, Uni will tune up for September at Marcellin's expense and De La will narrowly snuff out OI's finals' hopes.

been?? I had a bit to do with him through the TAC Cup Bendigo U18's.. He was always extremely lightly built, but very dangerous with the ball in

Ripping form. Would be in top 3 or 4 in club B&F. Played every game. Made state team with 3 other Xavs. All in all a 9/10. Wins plenty of the ball. Had a good team around him which helps.

Very interesting week this week if Xav's loose to De La they will find themself in 5th position. Can Ivanhoe upset the Blues again and maybe push them out of the 4? Can Scotch cement a top 2 finish by knocking off the Hail boys at Badlands?
Great 2 weeks ahead for all thoughts?
old trinity, looking for a very successful season next year, trying to recruit younger blokes to the club, which is very good. A few under 19s from other VAFA clubs and Diamond Valley will be moving to OT's next year..

yeah well they dont have a tie, but a few of the blokes down there,particulary the good under 19s who r playign ones and twos down at trinity, are mates with a few.. lets just say that the boys who are contemplating this move are under 18 TAC players. Old trinity to push for next years A grade flag

Getting more than 365 days ahead of yourself is pretty risky business in any field, let alone ammos football. I'd suggest that you put your predictions on '07 premiers in a time capsule and open it up in approximately 12 months. That way you can review your tips and not look like a clown while the rest of us might actually give a damn about what your talking about...

If Old Xav's win this again this year they are going to apply to play in the AFL and with the talent that is "coming" to Xav's next year (some of these guy's played for VIC in Under 16's) They will probably win the AFL flag in 2007!!!

Just thought people would want to know what Matty Greig is up to these days. From the Photos he looks like he's up to about 12 feet!!!
Photo sourced from Regional Leagues thread.
Stop it!! That's not fair!!
(sniff, sob!!) :(
That's got to be one of the better still photos from suburban footy in recent years. I presume it's taken off a video recording. Know Greigy, he probably popped a shoulder on landing, slipped it back in, gave a spray to the Noble ferals and slotted the goal. He'd look even better taking them in green and gold and on a bowling green like the Daley Oval, instead of the cow paddock they play on at Vermont (though that may be from the Noble Park game at Noble).
Abyhow, back to A Grade 2006, and the Scotch win looks like being crucial in the context of the jostling for finals' places. Frankly, both Trinity and Scotch were missing plenty of players, and neither side would say they brought their A game to K2 Stadium - so Barry Price would be very happy to walk away with the chocolates and 2nd place with 2 games to go.
De La have put the Hoers' season to rest, and they remain well and truly in contention for finals action. I wouldn't write them off by any stretch as they're playing good positive hard running footy, and have probably exceeded all expectations down at Dairy Bell. I think it'd be fantastic if they managed to sneak into the 4.
Haileybury are pretty much assured of finals as De La play Uni and Xavs - which means those three sides simply can't win all their games to knock the Bloods out. Scotch should be safe too, it's now a 3 way battle for the final two places.
Uni play Old Ivanhoe and De La
Xavs play De La and Trinity
De La play Xavs and Uni
If De La can win both, then one of last years GF teams will miss out.
Makes for an intriguing finish.

I can't see Cultera getting it only cause he spends most his time up forward and Trinity's start to the year was pretty ordinary. Jenke has to many on ballers that steal the votes IMO.

Who's just outside the four??? If your still talking about OT then look again. It's pretty bleak across the club.
Seniors 3 games and almost 50% outside the four.
2's 5 games and 100%+ outside the four
Under 19's - Last with 1 win and 37% (In section 2)
These 'supposed' TAC players would want to be seriously good players who slip under the radar of AFL clubs. And thats if OT can get them. An 18 can change his mind and his loyalties pretty quickly when a local club flashes a few thousand dollar notes in front of him. Trinity are as much chance for next years flag as Derek Kickett being Kevin Sheedy's assistant.

3's - HAHA they are in division 3 Clubbies what more needs to be said?
U19's - As above, sitting last in Div 2 U19 will be playing in Div 3 next year with only 1 win for the year.
School Boy's - Have been the laughing stock of AGSV football for the last 10 years

I am not getting "defensive" as i couldn't care less but I personally think it is relevant, if the under 19's are not strong it doesn't say much for the next few years at OT!! You need good depth to be a strong A grade club like Uni, Xav's, Bernards, Scotch ect all of these teams have 2's sides that are pretty handy and they also have handy U19 sides most years. The under 19's will be the ones that are one day filling the spots in your 1's.
The only guy getting a kick for OT Under 19's just copped 8 weeks for his troubles! Poor form!

Seriously though - I have been following the recent trend of this thread and, if I took seriously what dv07 was saying, then I'd probably back him up.
However, I disagree with most of his points...whilst the influx of several 16 to 18 year olds may be of great assistance in the long term, the immediate impact will not be sufficient, alone, to enable Trinity to challenge for a premiership in 2007. Most of the improvement has to come from within, and finished off with a bit of top-end recruiting.
Suffice to say, I think dv07's a little off the mark. Mind you holding's opinions are simply that as well, opinions, to which we're all entitled.
Let's face it - the results and ladder positions don't lie. Fortunately, our midseason streak of 6 wins was enough to keep us in the top flight. During that time we chalked up some good wins, which is promising. However, we're under no illusions that we've got plenty of work to do in the next 8 months - starting with this weekend against OMs.
FYI - our current club legend is actually Andrew Ramsden. Best bloke is clearly David Beardsley. I took the only other role available.

Back to more interesting matters, and with the Woodrow approaching, recent word from HQ has Cultrera (OT) as being in the mix. However, stiff competition must come from Rayson (De La), Madden (St Bernards), Hopwood (OH) and Paterson (Uni). They'd be my top 5, with OX, OI and OS too even in their output to throw up one single candidate.
Most of you would have already figured this out but some may not know that when you are looking at the VAFA website you can check individual player stats. With the information provided there I think that the four Woodrow favourites come from two clubs, Hopwood (OH) 13 times in the best, Jenke (OH) 10 times in the best, Gleeson (UB) 10 times in best, Paterson (UB) 10 times in best. Obviously it depends on how good those games were, whether they steal too many votes off each other and whether the umpires that had them know what a good game is, which is very questionable. With that said I think that the winner will come from those four.
For those who like smokeys Cultrera has kicked a truckload of goals and OT have won 7 games and St Bernies have won 8 and Jash Madden goes OK, even though he is a bit of a sook (umps seem to like him too).

Based on that theory you have Thompson (OI) on 8 and Geilings (OI) on 7... but smokey from OI would have to be Curatolo... last one off the bottom of nearly every pack, clearly in the view of the umpires all the time then!.... big fella too, prone to catch the eye! ;)

I've said it before and i'll say it again. OE are a bunch of selfish pretenders who belong in B grade. I get great joy out of watching them mouth off all year (at opposition and at each other) and then roll over towards the end when the serious stuff starts. Having said that, i would love nothing more than to see them in A grade next year - every team needs a rag doll to throw around.

Bit rough?? Perhaps thats been the case in the past but there are alot of new faces down at footy hill this year, and i think they shouldn't be underestimated come finals time (nor should blacks or brighton for that matter).

I understand your sentiment Plumber, but you might want to get out the Melways and refresh yourself on the actual course of the Yarra. I think you'll find that there are a couple of other clubs currently in A-Grade on that side of the river.

Plumber if you can't handle a trip to Bernards you're soft, you won't win a premiership if you can't win out there. They've been in A Grade longer than anyone (came up same year as Xavs) and won't be going down in a hurry. You've got the grammar skills of car thief yourself, and your geography is no good either mate, half of A Grade is on the 'wrong side' you deadsh*t.

You might want to check when Old Scotch was last in B Grade.
I also think you might find Plumber's club of choice came up the same year as you and have performed pretty well since they returned. They've won plenty of cups even in years when they haven't left the Pit with the points.
The "wrong side of the Yarra" has traditionally been used to refer to the North and West suburbs as opposed to the more affluent South and East. We all know the most affluent northerners sent their kids to Bernies anyhow!!!

Realistically, of the top 5 teams only OH is guaranteed of a place in the finals prior to this round. Depending on the results of the DLS v OX, Uni V OI & OH v OS games, the other three finals spots could all still be up for grabs with one round to play.
However, if;
OX defeat DLS,
Uni defeat OI &
OS defeat OH
the final four won't change 'til Round 1 of Season 2007.
I can't see OX losing to Trinity or OS to Marcellin in the last round so if the four was to change before finals the most likely scenario in this case would see DLS coming in at the expense of the students.
I'm not game enough to lock in my final four just yet, but a win this wkend by DLS would set up a cracking Round 18 with everything on the line for a number of teams.

Plumber- I grew up playing St. Albans, Sunshine, Hoppers, Werribee, Spotswood, Yarraville, West Footscray etc in the FDFL jnrs.... We got abused for being "schoolboys", "catholic f&*ggots" etc. I know lots of the blokes from those days and they are all good blokes. A couple of weeks ago against De La I/we were called the "scum of the competition". There are a few teams which I would have no qualms about having a beer with after the game. I am tipping your team (whoever that may be) is not one of them.
Funny how things can change..... food for thought.

If De La had won on the weekend scotch would of been 5th with poor percentage. But didnt happen.
But here is an interesting scenario:
OH vs ST B - StB won last time.
OX vs OT - OT won last time
OS vs Mar - Scoth won but only by 16 points
UB vs De La - UB smashed De La last time.
Should the results go the same again (with out major changing in percentage) the ladder will finish like this:
OH
UB
OS
OX
With week one of the finals seeing an A grade power house dismissed! Thoughts?

HAHA your such a tool it makes me laugh, in future can you at least try and say something creative, maybe pay me out? We may actually get a laugh out of it!

I doubt there would be a fall out, I have seen them play on a couple of occasions this year and they have a very very young side (At a guess i would say the average age would be 23) They would obviously be disapointed but they will probably get punished in the finals anyway!
The 2's look like going back to back which is a good for the club

OH are a very handy side I would back them in to beat Xav's in the first final or Uni for that matter.
From what i understand OS have 5-6 senior players out at the moment so they will get stronger but no way near strong enough to knock of UB, OX or OH.
Here is my early prediction - OH will win it this year.

I have no link to Eddie and I don't know who he is.
I don't know you and I haven't even really read your posts.
I object to being sent random PM's by blokes who are doubtful about their own sexuality who trawl football websites looking for like minded blokes to yourself. Your ongoing interest in penises is a concern for all those who have shared a shower after a game with you.
I suggest you have been drummed out of your club and are very bitter about having your freedom to perve removed.
I am not gay (not that there's anything wrong with that if that is your thing) but stop PM'ing me. Go visit a ballet forum or something. You are a disgrace.
