2016 NFL Division 2

[Albert you star]

Is this not the nfl div 2 thread, are the stars not a nfl div 2 team, was the question not asked, am I not giving a fair arguement. Don't like it, don't read it. Not stopping anyone else from discussing this week's game.

Cool story

Be interesting to see the state of Cramer St after all this rain, plus two earlier games to see if it helps either team tomorrow afternoon.
Should be a cracking game regardless and will be the first to congratulate Hurstbridge if they get up.
But have seen Harvey kick 15 in his two games on Grand Final Day and think he will get North over the line.

Stop Harvey stop the doggies. Hursty by less than a kick

 

[richo's dodgy hammy]

Well done to Hurstbridge. Were clearly the better team and deserved the win. Good luck in Div 1.

Will Boomer play Div 2?

Will Boomer play Div 2?

Live wire did post that his info was yes he will play 1 game next year regardless of division.

Congratulations to Hurstbridge. Great game plan, well executed by young disciplined talented team. Answered every challenge. North I thought lacked 1 strong key forward today

Yep. Game was won across Hursty's HB line.

Hursty played well today, their spread, run, linking up with handball, outnumbering around the footy, front and centre work and their desire was far too much for North.

Kruezer nullified Florence, Grimes broke even or probably just shaded Harvey and i thought Loader was stiff not to get BOG. Overall better team on the day and congrats.

Crowd wasnt huge and the atmosphere was a bit flat i thought.

Simpson back in for Hurstbridge. Wonder how under done he is. Didn't look too great in the Semi, had the ambulance attend for him. Did sit the game out on the bench though.

Not exactly sure what was wrong with him, ribs maybe? Might not take much more than a good tackle to flare up again.

Wouldn't be surprised if he's out of the game early.

Yes cracked rib and still cracked and played like a seasoned footballer. All credit to him

All respect to him if he's come in with cracked ribs and tough it out to the end. Would have been easy for him to be a passenger but had some input and kicked a couple important goals.

Pretty solid effort by Hursbridge, wanted it more and was willing to work harder than North.

Loader BOG for me aswell.

Unusually small crowd and flat atmospher for the Div 2 granny. Very little noise coming from both supporter groups.

I don't think Carlton will let him play a game next year.

Was very flat game alot like the prelim. Hursty clearly the better team on the day. I thought grimes, loader or barbera best on. While the margin was close, north never gave a yelp after half time

Probably from teams other than North supporters. Most of us realise we were outplayed and hard to believe it was only 11 points in the end.

Hurstbridge definately the better side on the day
Shaw was fantastic as was Loader,Reading and Grimes.

Was the quietest crowd I have ever heard at a Grand Final. Really weird atmosphere. At times it did not seem like a Grand Final.

Congrats to hursty. Hopefully they can retain their players so that they can be competitive in div 1. I was told that Macleod were going to go hard after one of their best young players, I wonder if he would still consider making the move now they have come up, surely not.

Will be interesting to see which players don't stay at Hurstbridge. You would think the majority of the older players (Shaw, Farrelly, Kruezer, Tilly etc) would not go on or stay. Not sure why they would go back to divvy 1 when they left divvy 1 clubs to come back to divvy 2 previously.

I have heard the club learnt from their last foray to div 1 when they didn't recruit much at all and lost a lot of players to retirement. So im guessing their will be a big push to recruit players. Most important would be to keep as many younger players as they can and I think they will.

Shaw said on the radio that he will be there

All reports that they all will be there next year but the big fella whom is considering retiring. Think they all really enjoy playing for Hurstbridge.

Simpson will stay at Hurstbridge. Kid loves the club

Simpson will stay at Hurstbridge. Kid loves the club

Pretty sure he signed for 2017 at about 9am Sunday morning

 

[beerbandit]

At which club?
