Great Intel. Surpising swap out Backman for Love Linay then, word around Love Linay from a few coaches that saw him that the division 1 standard was beyond him , I will have to get to a Chelsea game at some point
Love-Linay just an honest battler…not up to it at D1 level. Backman good depth player…hopefully not getting paid a fortune. To give you insight in the really strong EB sides (2012-2015), Mitch was in the bottom couple selected most weeks.
 
Hopefully, Joshua Bennett from East Brighton recovers well and everything is OK after being brutally knocked out in the 3rd quarter. As a result of a heavy wet ball being kicked straight into his head while he was standing on the mark.
 
Went down to watch highett v keysy last week, imo keysy were poor and looking at last year team compared to this year via playhq it seems they are playing players who only played ressies last year. Highett were good but i think mordi and east malvern will challenge. Div 1 has improved out of sight, massive gap between div 1 and div 2

EB 19s have forfeited for the 2nd week running
Bit of a shame really cause their 19s team would’ve been 1/2 decent, instead you have 15 or so most weeks propping up their reserves team as they didn’t have numbers. I wonder how many will leave now and seek to play u19s only at another club?

Agree. I'm sure the likes of Cheltenham, Bentleigh, Highett's U19s have all sounded out some of the East Brighton 19s. In saying that EB 2s are 2-0 at the moment so they're doing okay! EB will struggle mid season when injuries pile up and these young kids are having to go up to 1s when they probably aren't ready.
 
The match was called off for some reason
One of the players got a knock to his neck in the third quarter but also had pain down his spine. Couldn't be moved off the ground untill the ambulance arrived. By the time he was taken to hospital there was not enough time to restart the game. He is OK now by the way.

Had a look at EM vs Chelsea Heights.
EM very impressive with their run and carry on top of the ground in the ideal conditions.
New recruits all contributed well. Don’t look like they’ll be as reliant on Morrisby this year.

EM should be thereabouts at the pointy end of the season with Highett and Mordy

Anderson kicked 4? What sort of player is he?

East Brighton in a world of pain, long season ahead. Absolutely smacked by FD on the weekend.
Yes will most likely drop down to D3 for the first time in their history. It’s a long way back from there. However there is a beacon of hope there. Have blooded 17 first gamers to the club in the opening 3 games and most of these are under 20 years of age. The tide will turn and it’s good to see them play local junior kids, rather than the mercenaries of the last couple Peninsula All Star years….vastly different and a step in the right direction!

They were well run before the All Stars
