Is the word you were looking for "reciprocated" ?
Can anyone tell me is Chris Mathews Running around in the 2's at West and if so how is he going, played juniors with him and against him back in the day?
Take my word, albanvale to get smacked in the granny, cant see them keeping up with west. Good luck to both teams though,

Thanks for your kind words 3 votes. I was humbled when I was told, but I will be only making up the numbers. The only think I will end up with that night is a hangover. I agree and think that Webster has had a great season. He will win our 2's B&f by a street. Young did only play a hand full of games, but as you said, he stood out and kicked bags of goals when moved forward from the ruck. You can almost pencil him in for about 4 BOG's.

I mean if the seniors pick up a few players, will the current seniors stay and play in the reserves, or will they want to play seniors and stay in div 2. Not havin a dig, but like they say clubs that go up want to top up their list with a few stars.

I don't know who's gonna stay or go but i hear they've already put the feelers out to others to come to the club. It's a massive step up so i'd think the ressys would struggle.

KAZ il give ya the hot tip, even if west do top with some stars, which we are in the process of doing right now, there will be a good bunch of boys who are just happy to be playing divi one, and will be happy to start off in the twos, just to find there feet and to see where they are at as players. as well as the good players in the twos from this year, there is a good bunch of u/18s boys coming up who are very talented, so it is my view that west twos will be competetive next season...
saying that..its bloody september....who knows ey

Good to see your back online. Are you playing this week or still to busy with work?
Parkside are still awaiting about 8-10 clearances with majority of these bing Senior players. If there would be a week to knock off Parkside this would be it. But otherwise I think we will have a strong side for the year.
Best of Luck Jr.....
Counting down the days until this Pea Heart gets to play against you.
Nah yeah this week and from here on in i've put footy in front of everything. Just hanging to get the season under way.

Hey Mate,
We played Western Magpies who played pretty well. They have improved a lot from last year and put up a brave effort for three qrts. That being said, our seniors had about 5 regulars out and there would have been another 3 to 4 regular twos players out... so we were not super strong. We had the game under control all day and then blew the game open in the last qrt, i think we kicked about 8 or something like that.
How are you guys looking this year. Pumped for this weekend are you??? Are you guys as strong as last year???
Our 2's are striving for finals this year, i think they will make it and finish in about 5th spot there r quite a few decent players there

No way you will make finals with the team you had on the weekend. I watched and I reckon 27 in the ruck/half forward was OK.
41 obviously was a good player at some stage but looks over 30, so unlikely to step up. 42 up forward was solid.

Had a lot of guys out last week for Parkside.
about 5-6 u/18 who had to back up for a second game. Standard of the game was scrappy early but say after half time we got better as the game got on. Dont think Wyndhamvale will trouble many sides this year....
This week we expect a tough match against Deer Park who seem to be on the rise. We expect at least 8 changes to last week with alot of the Senior Clearances now being in.

Hey typewriter or RD can you give us a review on your game from the weekend.
close seesawing game. we were in front by about 3 or 4 goals in the second before north dominated the next 40 or so minuites up unitl about 10 min into the last when they were about 15 points up then we clicked and kicked 3 in a row to hit the lead before pagano in the pocket kicked 2 quick ones to kill us off. norths experienced players killed us and lead by example when the game was in the balance. pagano and wocka were standouts, pagano kicking 4 in the last i think. heights simply werent hungry enough for the pill and north won alot of the 50/50 contests. we will have to bounce back against tough opposition in albanvale next week should be a cracker of a game.

Deer park kicked the first major from Mick Hatz (didn't he let us know about it) We put the next 6 through by halfway into the 2nd, Deer Park then had a surge and slammed on 4 quickies before half time. After Half time it was all Parkside 11 goals to 5 (last 2-3 in last five mins with us being lazy) Deer Park are much improved from last year and will be a top 5 side, Dont take them lightly.
As you know that alot of players from Heights and Wests have move to Parkside. Apart from some minor issues with players not being used to playing with each the signs are very promising for the year ahead.
Still have another 4 blokes from Wests prem side awaiting clearance as well as a 1 more from Heights and 1 from Colts.
This week we are at Coburg. From the sounds of things they will be a tougher opposition this year. Good luck for the local derby.
Dont think the Seniors will need much luck though.....

I thought North were probably a little more desperate in the end. Home ground and few umpiring decisions helped out.
Heights kicked a goal in the last quarter, which 'unfortunately' the goal umpire was talked into being a behind.
Other than Azza Heights struggled a little in the midfield, whereas North were probably slower (lot of old blokes) but the load was shared more evenly.
Young kid no.33 looked good for Heights and you have some handy ex-Senior players in your forwardline.

15 Apr 2008, 22:51
i think u hit the nail on the head we just didnt win enough 50/50 contests forward line looked dangerous, backline was poor and azza was the only 1 who broke the lines but he did get hurt the other way with wocka dominating in the last 1/4

I think the colts bloke will take the ruck and the other Heights guys will play forward. Robbie is in the ruck and seemed to to well on the weekend. He is bigger than he was at Heights but seems OK with his moving around the ground. The Muscat call is a rumor... Clearaly not started by Parkside people as we have had a coach all pre-season.

Hey Typewriter,
I agree with Red Devils post... I think we were more hungrier in the end. When you guys hit the front in the last and we got one straight back, i could sense that a few of your blokes had then conceded, even though there was still about 3 or 4 mins to go.
How do you think you will fair against the Cobras??? They are always up there! Seems as though Deer Park will be OK this season as well and Parkside will be hard to beat also... will be very tricky to pick out a stand out ressies side this year!!

Hey Mr X i noticed that G.Hill is back... Is he a week to week proposition with work or has he finally told his boss to jam it. He would be a great replacement for Fais. Also P Romeo, Motta, Cini, + Jr will cause most backlines some problems.

2s at every club are vital to the club. a good reserves team has a mixture of youth and experience a good reserves side acts like a breeding ground for future senior players.
hillsyat this stage is available for 2 weeks unavailable for 1 but on those weeks he will stay play a few so i would say maybe 4 out of 5 he will play. motta is a big inclusion he kicked 3 on the weekend. i would honestly say that with the added depth to the 1s it has filtered down to our reserves and our side looks better than it did last year. alot more youth and pace and footy smarts in the side. and a game plan!!!!!1

Typewriter, was the side much different to the one that played us. I do understand that the ones had a few out, so that wouldnt have helped you guys. We had about 4 or 5 good players out when we played you guys and you have now seen the cobras play... how would you rate both sides???
typewriter
23 Apr 2008, 09:54
i think the cobras have definitly sent the bench mark, however i dont think their unbeatable by any stretch of the imagination.
we lost 5 to the 1s and had 3 very handy inclusions, but played terribly after quarter time, we copped a few injuries throughout the day and finished the game with 18 fit players so that didnt help either. no excuses tho we were terrible they were good.
albanvale r albanvale and always will be. they killed us on the turnover, they zoned off in the middle and didnt go into our forward line. apap (37) on the wing killed us and a few quick forwards dominated.

no doubt it will be difficult theyve been in great form and are without doubt premiership favourites. im pretty sure no team has got closer to beating them then us in round 2, which we probably should have won hitting the front in the last quarter only to stop and allow them to finish all over us (if my memory serves me correctly maybe rd1 or decka can confirm).
on the other hand our form has been very up and down. if we can get close to our best 22 out there, then we are a definite chance, our major issue this year has been getting a consistent team together. our next 2 weeks against north and albanvale could set our season up.

Hey TD,
Yeah it was round 2. It was a good game and you guys looked the winners when you hit the front late in the last.
I think its fair to say that both side have changed a fair bit since then and it will be another interesting shoot out. I think our form has been OK without being great (Red Devil 1 maybe you can have your say on this as well). We beat the magpies on the weekend by 56 points and with no disrespect to them, we played pretty poorly. Lets hope that on saturday we can turn up switched on so that we can produce some good footy.

best players cobra's 26 sticks,23 borg 5 or 6 goals,growcott played alright justin zahra 6 goals i think kicked a beauty from the boundry cooky did alright aswell.........these are the ones in my eye's who stood out........too many onball type players for us to handle we had our 5 players or so who went through the midfield they probably had 9 or 10 and to me that was the difference........and when the ball is comming into the f/ward line like it was it was only a matter of time before the game was blown open........
1st 1/4 we kicked with prob about a 4 or 5 goal wind cobs i think kicked 5 into it we kicked 2.......we kicked the first goal of the game then they kicked 1 straight back as good sides do......it was a 1/4 of counter attack theyd bring the ball down the scoreboard side wing we'd get it and go down the clubroom side wing we showd we could move the ball well in patches........which isnt good enough........
2nd they kicked the first couple through their midfield dominance but we kicked the last 2 of the 1/4 to make it about a 4 goal buffer at half time..........our pressure went up and hit them hard i thought basically it was even stevens for the 1/4 and game on no doubt about it.........
3rd with the wind we were held scoreless and i would say for the first 15 to 20 mins there were no score's untill late in the 3rd when they kicked a couple which hurt us 1 telling factor in the 1/4 was our lack of fittness to run out the 1/4 and i could see them rotating their midfeild and we wernt.........interesting about this quarter was that martello was playing on the back flank after dominating the centre clearances for us in the first 1/2........scores were 6 or 7 goals to 12 at 3/4 time........
4th they kicked the first goal and were never headed slamming on 12 unanswered goals with their midfield smashing us to peices and too many blokes for us pointing the finger instead of biting the bullet and getting in amungst it.........dissapointing yes but they are a good side and have been for a few years now.......they tell me they have still got 5 or 6 to come back in.........and have got some quality young blokes borg is a beauty also the added experiance of growy and sticks ..........for us gotta lick the wounds and not dwell on the past and get on with the job..........a couple of winnable game's comming up with magpies and the brookers........finals is still in our sights top 3 would be great got to get more fairdinkum though when playing the sides above.........especially albanvale
yes im shattered but never the less gotta move onto next week........
cheers

Just had a look at the ladder and fixture, it will be interesting who will make up the remaining 3 spots as the top two are locked away. The teams that are playing the bottom 2 will be looking to make the most of the %, the % is very close between them.

Heights will win. Parkside reserves rely on a couple of ex-Heights players and a few kids from the under 18's.

What was the result typewriter. Watched Albanvale and coburg ressies today, that coburg umpire is woeful especially for a bloke that apparently tells the players he has umpired over 200 senior games

i think we won by 8 points in the end but we kicked a goal with about a second to play would have won by a lot more if we played on a bigger ground though. they dropped 1 or 2 back in our defence all day. howd u guys go?

yeah unfortunetly Coburg was very short today, had 3+ injuries from last week and lost another 2 players to the seniors this week, we didn't even have a bench at the start of the game until one of the players brother rocked up. Very disapointing, pying for the double chance and especially after we were so close to north footscray the other week, hopefully will be a very different game if we meet albanvale in the finals
Having said that, Albanvale were fantastic in the last 3 quarters, all credit to them they completely controlled the center bounces.

Scary thing is that Albanvale had about 8 out and were also short, had to play a kid from the 18s.

coburg will be 5 goals worse off in the finals anyway, with official umpires taking over they might find it a bit harder. im tipping they will struggle with the umpiring in the first week or 2 of finals (if they make it that far).

7 who are playing in the snrs have qualified and 7 who are out injured/unavailable but will be back this week..........
big 1 this week buddy.......
Anyone know how the finals are actually going to work ?
Obviously a big congrats to North Footscray for finishing on top,
As for this weekend's games, what happens in the next few weeks ?
Albanvale vs Coburg, qualifying
Deer Park vs Sunshine Heights, elimination
If Albanvale beat Coburg, does Coburg play the winner of DP and Sunshine or Nth Footscray ?
And what happens to Albanvale if they win ?
Thanks in advance, just curious to how it works out

Winner of Coburg and Albanvale plays Nth Footscray while the loser plays the winner of Heights and DP. The loser of DP and Heights is gone.
Any news on the Heights and Deer Park game ?
