Lovely little country town inland from Noosa Swoopa, population no more than a couple of thousand i reckon, that has the reputation of a green sweet smelling haze wafting over the ground during matches but also produced more AFL players than any other club on the coast in recent times!
Hmmmm, you sell it well! Are you starting your own "where the bloody hell are ya?" campaign?!
Could make for an almighty road trip. Maybe we could resurrect the bus!!

A Sunday final? Please say it isn't possible!! We get a very good and vocal contingent to finals and Sundays don't go as well as Saturdays!!!
yeah, that's the negative of a sunday final at springwood. the positive would be you get to have a crack at our steamed dim sims. positive outweighs the negative IMO
Bring your own banjo. Is a different breed. Run a reknowned "King of the Mountain" every year (the town, not the footy club) that attracts ppl from everywhere. Will smash Div 4 this year - win the GF by 10 goals + with a bunch of kids and a couple of blokes who are their dads!! Unique. Rhys Magin's dad, Billy plays there - record number of games 700. Is the only community AFL player in the AFL HoF I think. Trust me, its an experience and we only played juniors against them!!
I'm sold, Pomona '13! Give them the Div 3 GF I say. As long as they have an almighty pub in the town!
Sounds good to me. I meant Div 3- sounds like it'd be a great spot for footy!

Do tell, do tell? We have them next week so please inform so I can add it to multiple scenarios I already am expecting...,
More likely is a complaint against the Sports Club next door for not allowing a community footy club to sell beer!!! For shame!

Ok Looks like Morro's not going to comment so I will fill you in.
Mid way through the last quarter on Saturday Coomera player Smith took a mark 35 out on a slight angle. Morris chose to engage in what has been deemed level 1 sledging offense (due to his good record he has no carry over points and wont receive any disciplinary measures). Upon Smith kicking the goal his hand was offered to Morris to to slap palms in the timely tradition that some know as a "High Five". Morris chose to not slap palms and Smith was what could only be described as "Left Hanging".
Now making a club drive past 40 suitable ovals to play a game in butt **** nowhere is acceptable by AFLQ but they have taken a very strong stand here and have asked Morris to explain his actions. More info to come.

I find these accusations baseless and that they are said without merit.
Is it not true that player G Smith Umpired almost three Quarters prior to the game and could have been experiencing fatigue in the way of seeing Troy Morris "Leaving him Hanging?" As a witness to the goings-on last Saturday I do recall player Morris offering his hand to many a Coomera player. Unfortunately it was generally with a closed palm and in every attempt he missed the players hand and accidentally hit a variety of other body parts instead. His arm brace also makes him Beenleigh's answer to the "Million Dollar Man". Taking into account the currency conversion in the area his new alias therefore is "Half-a-Slab man".I find these accusations baseless and that they are said without merit.

Correction it was a full 3 quarters and a disgusting effort hence why he was replaced at 3/4 time. Although Smith was fatigued there were many witness' including his missus who asked him "What sort of person does that? I wish one of the Buffs cleaned you up", referring to Smith and not Morris.
Anyway it's in the hands of the MRP now. I Expect Morris will have a lengthy stint away from the game to think about the pain he has caused.

On a serious note when talking about the beenleigh v coomera game, was the send off in the first quarter a premature decision by the umpire because of the player/s involved ??
I missed the incident but perhaps it was setting a precedent? Then the 2nd send off was a square up because he was definitely unlucky to go IMO. Literally didn't see a punch thrown as if there was it would've been a red?
I believe the Beenleigh player involved in the first incident was given time served which would deem it not a serious offence. I tell you what though it would've been a good game to watch for the neutral observer with some very good footy from both sides in patches!

Has this rule disappeared somehow? I have seen a few punches thrown this year and not one deemed worthy of a red card...

Also, regarding the beenleigh v coomera game, why was there a 10 year old kid acting as a boundary umpire. He couldn't throw the ball 5 metres when throwing in, and it made the game look very amateur. Under 16's would be disappointed with that sort of boundary umpiring, let alone a top of the table clash senior game!! The on field umpiring was very good though, apart from the send offs.
Agree umpiring was good for most of the game. The boundary umpire was sharing the duties with another doing half each just because he is very keen to help. Great kid and umpires didn't mind.
All in all it was a great day. In all seriousness I was disappointed to hear that the Sports Club had stopped the Buffs selling alcohol. Such an important revenue stream. Not good for the community!
