D1 2016 discussion

[bedford]

Thanks for the history lesson. You managed to avoid the question that was asked

In 1 post he says he's not from there and then in his latest he says you know who I support. Just come out of the closet champ and say directly your from SMS. What about the Mummies boy number 11 , he will get whats coming.

OG coasted to a 72 point win at Como over YV yesterday. YV suffered a bad first quarter personnel-wise, with a player black-carded 5 minutes into the game (for allegedly casting aspersions on the umpire's integrity), then another player stretchered off with a suspected cervical spinal injury, so effectively they had 20 players for more than 3 quarters.

Stephen Donald and James Amos stood up for the visitors. Bird McKay and McMeel were too quick and smart for their YV opponents.

 

[bedford]

Can't take a trick YV already had 7 out from last week.

OG will need them. Another bunch of over rated soft school boys. How are that travelling in their search for a 2's or clubbies flag this year? Aiming for 7th or 8th in the 1's?

I thought we all attended school sauce?

 

[moore]

Wow we, Richie you cant win the mummies boys were out done by a very undermanned and young Monders

 

[AM]

Mate of mine coached Salesian to a flag some time back. In those days they were a respected club he tells me. Disappointing to read that as a combine they've apparently become a rabble.

 

[Chump or Champ]

Hey richo. U sound like a SMS Supporter. I hope in the return leg that the piece of sh&t loud mouth dark skinned bald chap plays. I will contact Bedford to make sure that the ambulance parking spot at E.E.Gunn is accessible for when he leaves the ground

Ha ha ha - good to see Raj is making as many friends in D1 as he did in D2. There was some discussion around roid rage at some stage, but I think that was all just scuttlebutt and he is just an idiot. Shame the club has kept him on as he does seem to give the rest of the club some unwanted attention.

Firstly, well done to Ormond. They have had a fantastic start to the season as their humble supporters and players have promulgated with utmost sincerity. It’s always nice to see an amateur club, playing so well on the field, show such dignity and grace off the field. ‘Sauce admirer’ and ‘bedford’ must be congratulated for being such superb representatives for their club. Giving up their spare time on a Sunday morning to hurl abuse and empty threats at other clubs and their players. It’s always important to have such people at your club to ensure that the young players are provided with the right values. Keep up the good work gentlemen and, although no response is needed to this, I’m sure you’ll have some illiterate rabble to volley in return nevertheless.

Oh yum. Let's have a bunch of grapes from the Ferndale vineyard. The sour ones will do!

Talking to a Nodder player earlier today. The Nodders played SMS in a pre-season praccy. The sniper whacked the Nodder player from behind even in a praccy. He pulled him to the ground and when he was on the ground the turd threw another one.

Says something about the standards the coach allows when that sort of poor discipline is tolerated.

Perhaps the college needs to take more interest in what's happening at SMS before they further tarnish its good name.

Seeing poor disciple is apparently acceptable at SMS either the umpires do something about the turd or maybe he needs to spend a few weeks taking his meals through a straw.

The Salesian presence at SMS is virtually non-existent these days AM. A few in the early days of the merger but not many now.

That's pretty much the way it is. A far cry away from the "old" St Mary's.

Maybe it's time for them to remove their name then Rooster. Guilt by association isn't a good thing either.

As I've mentioned a former De La unders coach who went on to coach Salesian to a flag is quite disconcerted when we've discussed these matters. Once a proud respected club who played it hard but fair and who would have sent any snipers packing.

Was lucky enough to go and catch the contest (or lack there of) between Ormond and SMS yesterday. Quite surprising if what some are saying about Ormond fielding a young side is true, as this contest really looked a game of 'Men vs Boys'. Bigger bodies, more attack on the ball and better ball movement all over the park resulting in a convincing win. Shared a few words with a couple of SMS off field personnel who whilst saying that they were missing a couple of key players that really change the dynamics of their play, fully acknowledged that Ormond are a superior side to them and that it would take a full strength SMS side playing at their absolute best to be able to compete with the likes of Ormond. Not sure if I agree with some of the assertions being made about SMS being a poorly run club filled with 'ferals', seemed like they had a decent culture in the pavilion and a strong committee behind the scenes, plus I doubt its easy for lower division amateur clubs to snag AFL players as their coach without a strong setup. Having seen SMS a number of times over the past year, unless something's really changed, theyre a better side than what they showed yesterday.

As for Ormond, loved the way they went about it yesterday. Attacked the footy hard, were composed in possession and always seemed to have outside run and release options available. If they are a young side, they certainly dont look it. Most of their side had well built strong bodies who never shirked the contest.

With the season taking shape, seems to be a few 'sections' developing in terms of where sides will/should be competing.

Ormond
Kew
---------
Old Geelong
SMS
---------
Prahran
NOBS
Old Mentone
Whitefriars
---------
Bulleen Temp
---------
Yarra Valley

 

[AM]

Good read BB. Long way to go though.Think Prahran Assumption will cause some headaches before season end.

 

[Navyblues09]

Prahan will trouble sides at Toorak Park, but last year and so far this year have shown they just can't win away from it

Don’t really know much about them but completely agree that it seems silly to retain the school in the club name if there is no presence anymore. Bit like NOBs who are changing their name next year.

De La always did and continue to do well out of Salesian. Even when they had their own team playing out of Chadstone boys who wanted to try themselves at a higher level often found their way to us. A couple of good young Salesian lads in our club at the moment including the captain of our Premier U19 team. I believe Oakleigh Krushers also have a good contingent of Salesian boys at their club.

Hey mate, let's not forget what this site is all about. If it wasn't full of arrogant opinionated bullsh$t then none of us would even bother being involved. You need to be able to recognise a wind up when it's placed in front of you. With regards to you questioning the values at Ormond & the message that is being sent to the younger players, my suggestion to you would be, worry about your own backyard. We are 4 games into a season & a lot can happen before it really matters. Let's chat again in round 18 & see where the chips fall.

Good to see that sauce admirer was absolutely on the ball. It appears that Raj has some history. Shit bloke seems to sum him up

Listen champ we give anyone a go, but your mob from the start of the day with a feral woman yelling abuse during the clubbies, to the rat called Raj yelling abuse from on the ground as the Ressies runner to holding the board for Jess in the seniors aren't an example for any club.

What are they changing their name to?

 

[perspective]

Looks as if Ormond are hot favourites albeit early in the season. Ive witnessed a couple of Ormond people that would have competed nicely with the apparent abuse that has been claimed by Bedford. But sounds as if Bedford's club has tidied itself up a bit...needed to

 

[Rooster 24]

Don’t think they have decided on a name yet but the school that gave the club its name (St Josephs North Melbourne) closed its doors about 5 years ago.

Those involved with the club would know a lot more than me and unless there has been a change of heart I believe they are looking at something that reflects their location. They have formed an alignment with Brunswick Junior FC that play out of the venue and wear the same colours and it was the home of the old Brunswick VFA team so that seems a reasonable option. Not sure how strong or successful the St Pat’s alignment is but I suppose that would be included in there also.

In the years I played for and subsequently followed the Monders I've never witnessed that sort of behaviour on a consistent basis. If ever anyone got a little too rambunctious they got a tap on the shoulder very smartly. Maybe it's the company you keep.
