Braybrook kicked 3 goals in the first 5 minutes then West took over from there. West didn't look that good but Braybrook were pretty woeful, a long season ahead for them.
Also 2 reports and 1 serious injury from the game. Chicky and Mitta reported for pretty small incidents. Expect both to get off. Pinny broke his wrist after some dog decided it would be nice to push him into the fence after the ball had gone over the line. Tried to use the fence rail to stop himself and cause it was wet he slipped and displaced the bone.

Who are Pinny and Mitta?
Solid, if unspectacular win for the Devils yesterday. Still need to improve quite a bit to be a top 4 contender. Former u/18 Brent Williams was probably our best player. Ian 'Scratcher' Allan was also terrific yet again.
To be fair, Gladdy Park had a dip but their fat blokes became tired in the second half. We received quite a few free kicks and 50 metre penalties as they were loving the cheap shots. I think we would have won by more if it was drier.
Heard Heath Shephard owes GPark money so Coburg Distrcts may struggle to get him on board unless he pays up...

They had quite a few of their ferrel supporters there. Couple of peroxide blondes with terrific knockers. The twos were terrible, but again tried hard. No one played two games from what I could see.
I have no idea about their future, but GPark always have a bit of spirit about them. Heard they have been struggling with numbers to training.

I remember the year he got big. We thought he wasn't playing because we couldn't see him in the warm up. I reckon he put on about 30 kilos over one summer.
The first time the Devils played against Brunswick at their ground he was puffing on a durry ten minutes before we ran out...then he kicked about 3 goals in the first quarter and took a couple of hangers...

I think he has done well against all the top teams on different occasions. He really is a full forward though, so it is difficult when you get pumped by 40 goals each week.
I have heard the Glenorden had real difficulty recruiting players for div 1 and have lost some decent players from last year. I think they are better than what they are showing at present, but the weekend wasn't good.
Look I don't really want to do the whole comparison thing, but there are divisions within divisions. Glenorden will be competitive against the lower teams in division 1, just as Sunshine Heights, Deer Park and West Footscray would this year.

The gap is alot bigger than any of you realise and that is not meant to offend anyone,remember glenorden were undefeated last year and then last week got beaten easily against seddon yarra ,and even though it's a merged team most of the quality left also,i doubt that glenorden will win a game at all but hopefully they get to stay up as i don't think any other club is ready to take the next step,financially and taking a few other things into account.
For them to unfurl their flag and not kick a goal,must have been heart breaking for all involved at the club,but then again they were playing the premiers for 2007,i must say that all my time involved at the club this is the best recruiting over one preseason.Quality all over and a couple off the lesser profile recruits that will be the difference come finals time,the boys from down geelong way will be a handful,[hayes,harris,musca and dennerley i think he played in the qfl state league last year will be a top player but my favorite is the big full forward reminds me of when timmy trail was in the square but molan kicks alot better.

It's those scratch matches that are the worst, as nobody takes it seriously but you still get injured lairizing around more than you would in a serious game.
I played for yarraville last year and know what it's like for Div 1 sides to be too far off the pace to match it with the top teams. I had heard that Div 2 have the same problem with brunswick and others and I had expcted the league to do something about it this year.........namely a third league as has been discussed several times on here........when are they going to pull their fingers out. They need to get serious if they expect to maintain a league at all, if these smaller clubs keep getting smashed every week they willl just dissapear.

Some interesting match ups this weekend.
Coburg vs Albanvale - The cobras had the wood over the lions last year - don't think thats changed. Districts missing some height, Mitchell should do well. Cobras for mine.
W.Falcons vs West Footscray - Must be match of the round. Can never tell which Falcons team will show up. West Footscray would have to be short priced to play in a GF this year and with only 1 game under their belt, it could prove to be the advantage, especially with how hard the grounds are this year. West Footscray should get home.
Deer Park vs Braybrook - Deer Park - for all of Weapons bluster last year they are just quietly going about its business - Braybrook I don't think are as bad as their 0-2 start suggests. Especially with Pearce,Palamara and Sophoulis combining for 18 goals in two games. However, the bad news is the rest of the side has only chipped in for 4 more goals. Deer Park - but Braybrook will hopefully push them.
Other games very straight forward
The Dragons to easily account for Gladstone Park
North Sunshine to get up over Western Magpies
North Footscray to knock off Brunswick Power

i would think the deer park-braybrook game would be the match of the round...... fair points though for your game of the round though west will come out firing 1 would emagine and give the vales a good old touch up and send a bit of a messge to the comp.........falcons easily beaten by the dragons and the lions will be another big win this week for west.....:thumbsu:
deer park and braybrook game 2 old 1st division sides with a lot of pride will be the big 1.................we will just see where deer parks form is at i would suggest too much fire power up f/ward and the midfield should dominate against the brookers and if i were coach id be looking for a big win of about 50 to 80 points to really set up a big couple of weeks ahead for the lions...........:thumbsu:

i agree with all your tips i think most games will be pretty 1 sided tho.

i would also imagine albanvale/Deer Park/Wests would be looking for comfortable wins at least 8-10 goals

Coburg vs Albanvale - The cobras had the wood over the lions last year - don't think thats changed. Districts missing some height, Mitchell should do well. Cobras for mine.
W.Falcons vs West Footscray - Must be match of the round. Can never tell which Falcons team will show up. West Footscray would have to be short priced to play in a GF this year and with only 1 game under their belt, it could prove to be the advantage, especially with how hard the grounds are this year. West Footscray should get home.
Deer Park vs Braybrook - Deer Park - for all of Weapons bluster last year they are just quietly going about its business - Braybrook I don't think are as bad as their 0-2 start suggests. Especially with Pearce,Palamara and Sophoulis combining for 18 goals in two games. However, the bad news is the rest of the side has only chipped in for 4 more goals. Deer Park - but Braybrook will hopefully push them.
Other games very straight forward
The Dragons to easily account for Gladstone Park
North Sunshine to get up over Western Magpies
North Footscray to knock off Brunswick Power
My Tips:
Albanvale by 15 over Coburb
West Footscray by 45 over Falcons
Deerpark by 80 over Braybrook
Heights by 125 over Gladstone
North Sunshine by 85 over Western Magies
North Footscray by 150 over Brunswick Power

yes im tipping against the lions and the roosters theres a stratagy involved.................wet football.............
Wyndhamvale boys looking forward to this big clash. Should be a close game. Weather will play a big part.
Falcons throwing in a bit of youth this week with former Western Jet Michael Lubke getting a gig in the midfield. Doubt Under 18 captain Matt Lynch will play full back again this week but look out for him, racking up a best on ground performance in his practice match against Werribee Centrals in his 2nd game of the day.
Also watch 18 year old Dale Collins off the half backline, one of the Falcons furure superstars.
Few other young fellas coming through to have a run with the boys too straight outta the 18's.

looking a bit grim when i got to the braybrook deer park clash.......... deer park down by 6 goals start of the third and finished with 12 unanswered goals i think .....................to have a come from behind win........
Could see Laverton beating Gladdy and Brunswick this season..
Pretty good performance yesterday by the boys they fought hard all day, i think they have Brunswick and Gladdy in the next 2 weeks.

i have been viewing the local paper and it seems that West Footscray, Deer Park, Aubanvale and Sunshine Heights are the stand outs. Who is the biggest flag threat, i have also realised that there arent any close scores. I would like to go watch a heights game this week, does anyone know who they are playing. Which ground.

ill let u know a little tip last week deer park had 11 players out of their team all who have played in the 1st 2 games...........?
f/wardline west have got the 2 big 1's in inella and lane as well as chickey if he plays their this week and that will leave their backline vunerable to our boys????which it did last year in the finals:thumbsu: williams,madigan,may,dooch,rizzo,rock,dipetrio...........tha ts some of the most potent f/wards in the comp with out doubt:thumbsu: the question is do west have the backmen to cover them?????yes u would think dipper an madigan will get the best backmen then leaves the others to do the scoring..............deer park by 4 goals......
another thing is where will this game be played ours is crap and so is theres what happens here???????
yer about the ground dunno all i know is that last week the council has airrated and put new seed down which should help i imagine......
training is being held at the altona indoor centre for the moment and the jnrs are training at bon thomas reserve in d/p yes it is hard but what can u do!!!!!
another thing is that the council do these tests on the hardness of the ground and deer parks ground was .2 of a percent worse off than heights albanvales and nth sunshine and what that means i dont know but surley .2 cant be that much???????any way will be playing away i suppose till it gets better..........

nice forward line if its the same as last year, but i do beleive after what i saw on sat, the backline will hold there own against any team in div 2, west are not the same team this year as they have been other years. will be a great game, scores will swop all day, west by 2 goals.

you had a couple of good players against west, was no.6 one of the 18 year olds that your talking about? he looks the goods, whats his name? what where the other numbers of the young players?

the game will be won from the centre and the delivery to the forwards, i think which ever team can do that best will win on the day,
have you improved in the centre? west have 1 player from last year in the centre and there is plenty of size and ability about them, they have so far cleared the ball pretty good with strings of 3 to 4 goals in a row

Yes, good observation, No.6 Michael Lubke. Is a gun centre man and can play a handful of other possies too. Former Western Jet.
I think the other young blokes numbers were 43, 51, and senior regular no.77 Dale Collins.

if its at your ground no doubt about it..... 1 kick from the centre from a clearance and a mark eventuates its a shot on goal from 15 to 25 metres out so your points are valid.......the centre players are the same with a few different rotations this year and it makes a big differance........the game for me will be won by the backlines both f/ward lines are potent with plenty of goal kickers...... the team with the backline who is the most disciplined and run which i would think d/p would be able to counter attack the likes of lane and inella who's fittness would be in doubt after being rested this week................:confused: your strings of 3 or 4 goals who have they been against=no 1 of any calibre

braybrook and the falcons arnt the top 2 teams, true, but there centre men are not to bad.
im feeling confident about sat, with a backline that could have 4 6ft players like, chicky, armed, stevey and phippsy.
then you have geddys, lika, grixty and josh, 4 solid hard smaller players.
not one of these players mentioned would take a backward step, all have dicapline a little bit of speed and will work hard for each other.
you can also throw in players like j lane, russ and scolder to help out if required.

Unfortunately they folded as you were getting on the plane, there was a half hearted effort a few years ago to re-form them after the "success" of a TV show which used their venue as a base to train and play from.
Try the EDFL site, there are a couple of the boys running around in the two's for Marby Park.
Dean derrich and Spida from glenorden might be comming down to Sunny heights, if so that will be a huge bonus and they will be firm favourites for the Cup.

As far as I know their junior programe is still up and running, according to the WRFL website they have eight juinor teams ( u9's - u18's ). I am sure the majority of your era are still out and about and continuing on with the tradition.
