Good point memphis. i support your veiw and the one made by clif. there should be more speciall comments and pictures from around the grounds, n what happen to the good old days when the teams were in the paper every week. clubs should be forced to place there teams into the gaurdian each week!

yeah thats right micky, get some opinions from the coaches or captains about the upcoming games, players to watch etc. Yeah, there is a need to have the teams in even if they're not exactly how they'll line up

 

[pacco]

guys maybe we could get back to talking about football issues and not having personal cracks at people especially at their sporting ability in another code. the amount of swearing that is being used at the moment is a bit over the top as well, if you cant make your point without swearing then you really have no chance of getting your point across...

who made you the police of big footy clal hey !

It seems that personal attacks are becoming quite prevalent within this thread. Much conflict arising from differing opinions. How ones cricketing ability factors into anything relevant on this thread is beyond me, and predicting the future of our friend Mr. Griffiths is a quite treacherous thing to do as your attacks will seem less scathing if he does in fact end up playing elite level cricket. Which is indeed plausible. And one more thing to my friend Micky who refuses to be known as the Ace's friend. In a previous comment you criticized someone for talking the talk which is normal due to the forum setting, however you also accused them of not 'walking the walk'. My question to you is how does someone walk in a forum?

Easy young fella just a freindly piece of advice from a bloke who used to be known for talking it up instead of backing it up on the field. We all know you have huge amounts of talent, more than most that have come from our region but let your actions on the field do the talking for you. Forget this shit

Spot on Roota.
He is without doubt one of the most talented around and not a bad kid from my experience, but talking this amount of crap about yourself is certain to make people turn against you..
Humilty is a wonderful thing, and i suggest that sugakane and/or dooda take a good heatlhy slice of it in the near future..

A wise man once said if you're any good you won't have to talk yourself up other people will do that for you... Probably good advice young fella.

Wat do people think about some of the footy write ups in the Guardian these days?? I have noticed a few to be quite negative, talking down the footy skills of some teams. Surely people rather read about the great passages of play on the day, wouldnt you agree?

The same as I've always thought....absolute rubbish written by people who either never played or played badly and who know zero about the game. Some of the stuff written over the past 10 years would be laughable if it wasnt so bad. The votes given even more so. These clowns often use their write ups to downgrade players and teams through sheer spite and jealousy. Most never made it so bring down those who have. The only bloke that used to be great to read was Bill McCartney.

Mr Clifton used to do a good job. You could tell that he had a genuine love for sport which i think is half the problem with most of the others.

Maybe the big fella should return

Have to agree with much of what you say Russ..
A certain writer seems to have made it his mission to publicly downgrade United in the past few weeks. Everyone knows we are struggling on field a bit, but questioning the future of the club was a bit over the top!!
And as for the votes, agree again!!
Carrol was good and kicked 7, but i thought Parsons was a cert for votes last week and didn't score.. Anyone at the United v Tynt game agree??

 

[My Name Is Earl]

i personally think that the quality of the football write ups has dropped over the last 3-4 years, especially since my namesake left. the friday pre match write ups are the same each week and don't include any comments from coaches or football departments which may prove that the writer may not be trying or that no one wants to give her anything (that is not a crack at her writing ability). we used to have a 4 page spread in the middle on mondays and fridays with great photos from around the grounds including junior and netballers and it has defiantely dropped off. i only purchase monday and friday papers for the footy and its disapointing that i can read it in 5 mins.

Have to agree with you lookalike. The write ups these days are dreadful. I swear somedays they just pick out a few names and stick them somewhere into their report. Surely it wouldn't hurt to ring a couple of coaches and get their view points. It smacks of hypocrisy when the guardian complained a few years ago about clubs not handing in the correct teams for fridays paper, yet they don't put in any effort in their write ups what so ever.

And sugakane, your a talented cricketer, but stop talking yourself up. There is a much better and faster young bowler than you at Nyah Dist. Your pedestrian compared to him.

Yeahh thanks Russ its good to see someone else sharing my point of view, I hate to criticise 'a few' of these editors even though they would probably be volunteers and unpaid but seriously the write up i read on 'our' game on the weekend just bagged out both teams and was disgusting to read. They need to find some people who love the game and find the positives in each game and not draw on the negatives.

[clifton's lookalike]

kane now this is obviously not you or for some reason you have a bee in your bonnet cause this is not the kane griffiths i know, albeit i don't know you very well.
the kane griffiths is pretty shy and reserved but on here you are displaying outlandish behaviour. don't let personal attacks get to you as the more you respond the more they will attack.

 

[s u g a k a n e]

riteo, i am not going to say one more word about myself ever again on this forum. You think i talk myself up, fine, thats your opinion, but in no way was i trying to make myself look or sound better than anyone else on here. But i wouldnt have to defend my capabilities as a sportsperson if some blokes on this forum didnt have cheap shots at me first.

There is a new reporter at the Guardian. Tom Dullard. Only a young gut but has shown some promising signs. The ones i have read of his are pretty good, he has a pretty good understanding of the game and he will only improve as he gets older and more experienced. I am pretty sure he only does Swan Hill games because of his Colt's commitments at the club. Give him a look. Young writer to keep an eye on

 

[theAce]

Maybe Mr. Griffiths you should not take such criticism to heart. While I am sure you are only trying to defend yourself you have come across as very arrogant indeed. Letting every one know how good you think you are does not aid your argument at all my friend. In the future I advise you to follow in my footsteps and disregard mindless insults. I say this as always, with the best interest of the dear members of this forum in mind.

Ok enough of the trash talk! Sugar is a gun cricketer, oviously, by being selected to play for vic in the u17s comp! and the reason that he didnt play in melboure was becuase of school and that. he is a pretty sharp footballer i erg any one 2 get down to grenham park this week and watch him go around in the thirds and the ones.

Tom dallurd is an up and coming reporter who i no has a genuine love for sport in general.

Massive game against boga and barham this week could go either way, worth a look down at the magpie nest
