Canberra v Uni went pretty much as expected I reckon....bigger bodies, well drilled system and played to the conditions well. They still have talent to come in as well.
Have to say oval is good but facilities are shithouse! Changerooms worse than Ainslie and seeing bench players sitting on plastic chairs in the rain is a joke.
Not good enough for this level.

The Uni representative was apologising to the opposition coaching team because the 'dugout' was really no more than scaffolding used by TV cameras, exposed to the elements, no electricity available, no privacy. The Swans coaching panel had made themselves at home on the verandah above the pavilion so they were fine.
You're right, AC - good oval (well...circle actually) but crap facilities. Regrettably, there aren't many AFL-suited grounds anywhere in Sydney.

Not even close AC - 5 goals to zip in the first quarter. Then only one goal for the rest of the game

True! I guess I'm still waiting to see it.
Demons do crack in and dont seem to drop their heads. Credit to Uni as they adapted to a difficult day quickly. Max Wilson is the NEAFL "Mummy". He really dominated around the ball.
I know (cause Im from there) that Canberra, although disappointed at losing and concerned that they haven't won yet, are focusing on building a team. That may take 40 or 50 games and several better recruits.
Just watch the younger guys. Baker, McKay, Harper brothers (Lachie hasnt played yet) Tommy Faul (hasnt played yet) . Highmore Bance and Fisher who are away playing Nationals. Some of these boys may get drafted. Those that dont will surely add to the side over the next seasons.
I think at present Demons best chance of victory is on a big dry track. Dont worry, we'll upset someone soon!
 
just read that sydney uni are not playing their ruckmen....can i change my tip to Aspley?

tips for R5 Aspley
Swans
Giants

Yes, I'd like to hear from someone at the game too. Uni was undermanned with no recognised ruckmen, and Potter was badly injured - they will be appreciating the Bye this week.

Sorry guys,

I am usually there, but unfortunately had to go outback last weekend to pacify the Wife and her family (in footy season), I think you can see a replay on the NEAFL live stream site - I am going to jump on and have a look.
