EDFL "A" Grade - 2010

[BlueJet]

How did Lucas play this weekend?

I heard he has been slacking off at training because he's only playing for money now and doesn't care about the game.

He kicked 7.

 

[Silly Money]

Ventured down to Clifton Park on the weekend to see a spirited Aber's team come away with the points after a strong fourth quarter fightback from Doutta's.
Is it true that the 50m penalty in the far pocket (Doutta's bench side) was given against John Barnes for foul language directed at the umpire? It sounds ludacris but it was the sealing goal at a very important time of the game.

Also, Was there anything in the incident between Donza and a Star's player in the centre of the ground. Donza looked visibly upset as he left the ground and paced up and down the sidelines like a caged lion. The reason I bring this up is that when Donza accepted an award for his performance, the Star's table at the front were noticeably s******ing and smirking. Not trying to spark anything here guys, just curious as to what happened.

doutta the last team to go back to back from B to A

I have a great little feeling about our chances this year, the boys are playing some fantastic footy and one thing you need to win finals is quality defence which we have as well as high scoring forward options

great to have Rayzor back today in the scoobies also - hasnt missed a beat

Getting a little ahead of yourself pal!

Why dont you make sure you make the finals first, as you know funny things happen in football and we are only half way thru.
Personally I think you are not quite good enough to go with Keilor, Marby and Greenvale yet.

 

[Aucklander]

Livingstone starting to hit some form by the look of it

Yea, he was a standout.

Pretty sure they are the only team that have beat Greenvale in a H&A game for 2 years.

He kicked 7.

Watched the AH v GV game and thought firstly Avondale were very stiff to go close & not win - especially missing key position players - But Greenvale just showed some polish on Avondale turnovers.

But the heights runners - 17,27,21,14,8 and a few others starting to look good against good sides.

As for Lucas must have a huge bonus to kick goals as very selfish having shots when they were just not there to have and yes i love watching the Ex AFL players but down the other end Johnson kicked 5 and showed he is a much better team player. Great game to watch

One of the best hangers i have ever seen by a new indigenous player from AH

Was an awesome hanger, he nearly jumped over the Greenvale players head.

Speaking about that game. What about that player that took 15 marks most of them contested. Classic one handers, huge pack marks etc and had probably at least 13 shots at goal. Frankly he dominated the game. No dolly's over the top.

Who was that player?????? If his name wasn't Lucas you'd have your member out bashing yourself silly.

Just like a long line of footy experts your just another guru potting others for having a dip. So while no doubt your an expert on talent and team footy if its all the same we'll stick with Scotty. The club and the boys love having the big fella in the square

Yeah, and????

 

[cats_2010]

Nothing better then watching a young local footballer with plenty of talent, give a bath to a ex afl player who most probably is just in it for the money like the young oak park footballer gave to ty zantuck of strathmore on the weekend.

Not saying he is not a good player - I clearly stated he is "not a team player" and he would be a better player if he was a team player - Making Greenvale a very hard team to beat!

How many shots did he have when he could of set up a team mate? Like the 4 or 5 when he had to do a U turn or maybe the one where he got caught holding the ball - You see what you what you wanted to see.....The Truth hurts.

If your happy with that at Greenvale thats fine - Hence why you lost to Oak Park & will continue to struggle when you need a full team effort - too many egos that dont like opinions - Each to their own.

It was off the ball, elbowed him in face and funnily enough it turned the match back in abers favour when douttas had all the momentum...no prizes for guessing which douttas player it was.

During the Oak Park game Lucas actually got a spray from Super for trying to do the "team" thing too much, to say ego was the reason for losing to Oak Park is a little unfair to them as they're a quality side. Not to sure whether I've seen many completely unselfish blokes play full forward at any level. If it weren't Lucas would we be discussing this? Not so sure.

Anybody want to have a crack at who would be winning their club best and fairest at the half way make of the year?

Zantuck was always going to be a waste of money - too loose a person to be a consistnet contributor to a TEAM

 

[Macca29]

Yeah, and????

AND???

How about the burning fire in the belly from the relegation in 08 as a starting point, we are lead beautifully by Albi and Frankie, our backline is super and we kick scores

May as well hand over the flag to Oak Park right now then.

In the context of the season what do we all think is the bigger game this weekend

Marby Vs Keilor or West Coburg Vs Avondale Hegiht?

 

[puffpuffgivemo]

Good win by Abers last week, missed the game but always good to beat the boys from up the road!

I'm tipping Abers in an upset tomorrow against the Jets! Bold call but half a chance with the weather and the state of the Afton St deck, not in Joseph!

On another note any truth the former no. 22 from the Cattery and coach of a proud A Grade team was stood down after his efforts against the arch rivals last week and the 400m sprint race saga after the Avondale game?

 

[puffpuffgivemo]

In the context of the season what do we all think is the bigger game this weekend

Marby Vs Keilor or West Coburg Vs Avondale Hegiht?

Keilor - 7pts
Heights - 41pts

Garth and Livingston - 5 gls each
C. Johnson - 7gls and Grainger - 4gls

 

[AussiFootballFan]

did anyone hear about the rumours of drug testing at marby? i heard the club is considering it.

i mean, there are some really big boys down there.
