DIVISION 1 2013

Glen Eira have not had a very good start yes very early in the season but my sources say they were undermanned and no match for Ormond.I wonder if the Atholwood playing with Glen Eira is the son of that may have played a few games with Orm..

yes their start has been poor. they are extremely undermanned and are a very different side to last year. The whole club really struggled to stay alive during the off season so good on them for getting two sides out on the park. Will be a very very long year for the Saints but can always surprise.. especially on their own turf

The depth will be their problem.

 

[perspective]

Agreed, good on them for getting up and running again this year. Very difficult without juniors being a non old school boys club. Nice if they win a few games this year.

i spoke to someone from the club the other day and apparently they are really pushing to get their old school association back up. Christian Boys College better known as CBC was their old tie which i only learnt the other day which is interesting

If you follow their history, they're actually the result of about 4 clubs and a number of name changes that settled as GE in the late 90s/early 00s.
They've got arguably the best set up in the business and are working on the pathway back to their roots that will have a positive impact on their future.

 

[bedford]

How do you mean best set up

 

[Uncle Mick]

Facilities. Ground. Parkland. Playground. It's a very attractive proposition.

 

[bedford]

That doesn't get you 4 points

 

[Uncle Mick]

Correct. But it's a starting poin. And if they can get a junior program up and running, it can be a great marketing tool.

probably want the juniors playing on the ground, not on the monkey bars

Two Blues, too good!

Hampton Rovers win by 43 points over Bulleen Templestowe to be the only undefeated team in this section. Who would've thought this would happen, considering the Rovers poor form in Premier C last year.

 

[bedford]

A lot of people would have thought you'd go well with the players you picked up, settle down champ

 

[Uncle Mick]

Players picked up/players returned. Same/same.
