Norwood, Eagles win

[Macca19]

Norwood v West - i only saw the last quarter and a half of this game but in that time Norwood DOMINATED. When i got to the ground Norwood were 5 points up...then they kicked the next 9 goals!!
The SANFL tribunal will have a busy week as there was an all in brawl in teh last quarter which there SHOULD be about 8-10 reports for striking. heck that pushy shovy AFL crap...this was a full on punch up. Adam Richardson (aka big log) went so much as to shove Dale Fleming into the fence and punch him in the face. There would of been about 25 punches thrown and about 3 reports already.

Port v Eagles - Eagles dominated from the start...was much like the Hawthorn game where Eagles dominated yet could not put Port away on the scoreboard. Port made move on the century by dropping Ricky O Loughlin to the reserves (about bloody time!!). Port were only ever behind by 2-3-4 goals for most of the game, yet you couldnt see them getting over the top. The umpires didnt help matters and their almost reluctance to pay Port a free kick in the first half was a joke. Eagles got so many purely soft free kicks it was amusing, yet the same thing would happen with Port and it would be play on. The second half was more consistent. Im willing to watch the replay and pick every free kick just to prove how much of a joke the umpiring was in that first half, just to prove im not having a sook.

Beinke was reported for the most stupidest thing. He purposely ran 10 metres just to deck Beveridge even tho Beveridge got rid of the ball a few seconds earlier. I HOPE he goes for 5 weeks. I dont want players playing like that in a Port guernsey. He can get fuked. Was a stupid thing to do and could now cost Port a spot in the grand final...even a premiership. Ports forwards were non existant most of the day, with Pooley being the best. Rhino played well agian...Carter was probly Port best.
For the Eagles, Hall played well, Mclure (no 1) did alright, Colville had quite a few damaging possesions.
Neither team played their best footy...Mcgregor kicked about 1 goal 5 and dropped 3 absolute sitter marks. Gallagher made a number of errors (what else can you expect) and Floreani is one of the softest players ive seen. You can actually see him close his eyes and flinch if someone is coming for him.

A strange thing was Skipworth was seen unconsicious on teh ground in the last quarter at a bounce up but noone knows what actually happened. Nobody even saw it i dont think. No Eagles players remonstrated with Tom Carr (who was standing basically next to him), and none of the crowd booed or anything...the video replay was pretty inconclusive of what happened as you couldnt see it properly. I strongly doubt Tom Carr hit Skipworth as he is not the type of player to play the man or deck someone. I will be very very dissapointed if he did do something stupid. Skipworth could of "done an eagleton" and collapsed, yet i dont really know.

Congratulations on the Eagles and Norwood.

The games next week:
Port v Norwood - elimination semi
Centrals v Eagles - winner goes thru to GF, loser to the prelim.

Mothballs to West

Didn't see much of either game but I saw the fights on tv. Sorry I missed the game now.

Congratulations to Norwood and Eagles!

Macca, please view the replay. I don't think you were as had down by as you think. Tim Pffiefer is an absolute cheat. On three occasions we were done for holding the ball by laying over it in your forward 50 yet Stephen Carter in the second term in our forward 50 was the only laying over the ball with three Eagles holding his guernsey and the result play on. An absolute shocker and even Russell Ebert and Chris Dittmar said so.

I think Port was always in trouble because it didn't have the runners to match the Eagles. You may have gone for too many talls up forward and no crumbers.

Any rate it was good to get a win (any win over Port in a final is a good win) and even though we got 6 goals up, one is always aware that the Magpies will fight it out and they did. Don't think you will have no problems getting over Norwood (given the likely suspensions and some injuries).

What a great win today.
To have not beaten port all year - and then to win against them in a final - with them "playing for fos" speaks volumes for the player and coaching staff today.

Lindsay destroyed all 3 opponents in ruck to be BOG in my book.
He had o'connor banished to the forward lines within the first 15 minutes. How rhino is a magarey favourite is beyond me - what about the shot after half time when he kicked into the man on the mark when well within range - then tried to argue with the umpire about where the mark was - very funny. With fine conditions our on ballers killed port with first use of the ball fed to them on a platter by lindsay.

Colville was inspirational with his start and first, second & third efforts at the ball. Superb leading my example!!!

Fuller coached sensationally with a few surprises - starting chris kluzek at half forward - then one out in qtr 4.

I did not see any eagles player shirk any issue, in fact they ran in straight lines, agianst much larger (well fatter) opponents- especially the small guys - floreani, darzanos (who slipped under ports guard with pace) sicka & gallagher.

The tougher experienced nuts of beva, pesch, stood up when needed.

Defence was superb - hall, tape, frewen & pedler did a few good things.

yes we did miss a few set shots and probably should have won by more - but to beat port esp in a final is a huge achievement

Port were always going to come back and with 3 goals in quick time midway thru qtr 4 slowing up the play was a legitamite tactic. - maybe inspired by chocko williams great AFL strategies


Thanks to tom carr for elbowing skipworth to delay play for 4 minutes and snuff out any chance of a comeback.

Macca - skipworth doing an eagleton - what a load of fu(king crap he had blood over his nose & mouth. Carr was a dirty player last year whilst holding gallagher down off the play he dropped his knee into gallaghers cheekbone trying to break it. Carr then had had his cheekbone broken as an even upperer by the footy gods the next week ending his season. No-one likes to see these type of injuries but what goes around comes around - much the same as steed this year. I was listening to 5AA and stephen rowe was sticking it up ebert & dittmar, they tried to say skippy fell over, but rowe saw it & all the blood. Maybe wolfe parkinson's white heart disease make blood flow from the face??? The eagles players did not remonstrate as the game was won - as for no-one booing him i was in the members southern flank and a number of us saw it - way off the ball - another reason for no remonstrating.

As for captain one eye - poole - no fu(king brain - see him hassling colville in the second half. I was waiting for the head butt - but this will probably be next week.


As for the umpires - they favoured port - what about the holding the ball against floreani - then exact same at other end and no free kick to the eagles.

Did you see Floreani run straight at the footy in the centre square southern end with johncock, poulton and one other port player running all at him -and the ball heading ports way and not only did he stop the ball he beat the 3 opponents - dittmar -as biased as he is towards port actually admired him for his efforts given his size.

As for gallagher - rememer he ended phillipou's career with a courageous run back with the flight of the ball effort.

anyway - should be two good matches next week - port will be trying not to emulate port powers straight sets exit from the finals

A few things.
The umpiring DID NOT favour Port. Eagles got 4-5 very soft free kicks in the first quarter which resulted in scoring shots for them. The umpires favoured Eagles all day and i will gladly review the tape of the game (if my tape works...i think its bung). You mention ONE holding the ball. ONE. Yet it was CONSISTENT with the FOUR holding the balls the Eagles got in the first half. What about the soft in the back that an eagles player got in the first quarter (i think Pesch) in the eagles goalsquare? Completly soft.

As for Carr...i didnt see it. Noone else around me saw it. Obviously the players didnt see it, the umpires didnt see it...none of the crowd saw it. But of course - you seem to be the only person thats seen it. I wouldnt trust Stephen Rowe at all. Blood doesnt mean he has automatically been hit...purposely hit that is. Seeing as he fell forward ON HIS FACE...did you think at all that the blood came from his face pounding off the hard turf of Football Park. It IS a big possibility and you would be a fool to dismiss that as a possiblility. Sure it looks very suss...but seeing noone saw it, you cant make dispersions on it. Same thing happened with Stenglien/Whitnall. All these people said that Whitnall king hit him with a fist/shoulder/knee/headbutt...yet it seems that all that happened was a shepherd on an unaware stenglien. Im sure we will hear the eagles supporters on talk back radio tomorrow and during the week saying how Carr hit him with a fist/elbow/knee/headbutt/crowbar/shoulder and there will be 10 different stories from 10 different people.

You say what goes around comes around and mention steed. Are you saying people that play the game tough and hard with no holds barred deserve injuries?? Your a bigger idiot than i thought. Steed has never been reported, he has never punched someone before, never done anything but play the game tough and hard. He is a BALL player. If the Eagles had anyone like Steed in their side who attack the ball 200% all the time they may of won a premiership in teh last 8 seasons. Thats like saying Riccuito dserves a broken jaw cos he plays hard at the ball - he plays hard at the ball with no holds barred, if you get in his way youll get bumped - same with Steed.
To say ANYONE deserves an injury is very veyr poor indeed. Something id expect from a centrals supporter - yet you do seem to always have a chip on your shoulder.

You do try and make a fool of yourself dont you. Ryan O Conner doesnt deserve to be Magarey favourite because he did not dominate today?? What a funny funny statement that is.
Voss did nothing against Port in the qualifying final....how this guy is Brownlow favourite is beyond me. Primus shouldnt win the best and fairest because he played an ordinary game on Saturday night Mcleod did nothing against Fremantle...how this guy is brownlow favourite is beyond me. See how pathetic that statement is?? Get the $hit from your eyes.
EVERYONE has off days every now and again. I thought Rhino played pretty well but wasnt as dominating as usual. This of course DOES NOT mean he shouldnt be Magarey favourite. It was probably his 'worst' game of the year. You obviously missed the two games between us this season where Rhino completly dominated. 6 votes Ryan O Conner for those games.

Yes it should be two good games next week. I think Centrals will win in a close game - probably by 4 goals. The Port v Norwood game could go either way. Norwood could well be without Crouch, James, Fleming and about three others because of the two brawls in which all thru punches. Port will be without Beinke for his braindead stupid act on Beveridge.

I forgot to mention that Sam Jones got sent off the ground in the last quarter because of the first brawl, where he blatantly thru a punch at Robbie Neill i think when the scuffle was dispersing....RIGHT IN FRONT OF THE UMPIRE. The Ump was 3 feet away looking at him, and he connected with a punch...how stupid can you get. Mind you thats all id expect from Jones the thug.
Only the second time a player has been sent off in the SANFL. Craig Balme (another reject) was the first, for being reported twice in a game. Now Jones.

That we can agree on. This guy has NO clue about how to umpire a game of football. Esepcially a final. The soft free kicks this guy gave out today was ridiculous, with the blatant frees going missing. I rate Williams as the worst umpire, as he blatantly always cheats against Port - its obvious....yet Pffiefer..and this season Slaven - are just absolutly hopeless umpires.
Maybe sometime in my lifetime there will be an umpire that knows what he is doing.

 

[Boof458]

Macca my friend you have outdone yourself this time!!

Floriani soft????? Which game were you watchig

That was the hardest game I have ever seen him play and that incident in the second wuarter was purely brilliant. Head over the ball, took three on and won it. That was symptomatic of our hardness all day where we took port on and beat them in that area.

Eagles dominated the first half with 34 inside 50's to 14 yet were only 11 points up due to bad kicking and McGregor being unable to take a mark or kick straight.

Port came back hard in the third quarter but poor finishing cost them.

Eagles wrapped it up half way through the last with the first three goals of the term.


Umpiring - was ordinary both ways

Yes we got a few soft ones - but we were pinged for FOUR holding the ball's in sitautions where Port got away wiht it.

Not to mention Carter and Fiegert both using their forarms to strike Eagles players in the upper body.


What about the free to Carter against Spiros off the ball - what a crock - the umpire didn't even see what was happening. Eagles were streaming in to an open goal.

Pesh's free was soft - I agree.

O'cOnners two goals were very lucky - especially the second one that took a leg spin turn.


Lindsay was sensational - his tap work close to teh best I have seen in the SAFNL.

Colville was brilliant all day - especially first half.

Don't know how Macca reckons Poole was good - all he did all day was try to niggle the oppostion and play teh man not the ball. I think he finished with 7 possessions. The guy has no brain.

D Gallagher made one bad mistake when he bounced it and lost teh ball - other than that he was very good.

Jamie Tape was superb again in defence giving Beinke a bath.


How BAD is Mark Harwood?? Shocking.


Carter was Ports best by a mile - he looks like he is about 40 kg heavier than his AFL playing weight though.


Johncock showed lots of promise - though has to improve his work in traffic as he got done for holding it four times.


The best team won on the day and the UMPIRES had no affect as they were just ordinary both ways, all day.

Norwood will beat Port this week as they have more running players and Port will not have an effective forward.

That $50 is looking safe Macca.


Santos - no phone call after the game???


Re Skipworth incident

The video was very inconclusie but it looked to me on slow mo that Carr was still a foot away from him when he fell over

Just before that incident Skippy was buried in a pack and got up very slowly. Also when he got a free 40 metres out he knew he couldn't make the distance because he was so tired.

I think he may have just fell over from exhaustion.

When they showed him in the dugout - he gestured to his face and a open handed pusing movement as if Car pused him in the face but the video does not show that.

Perhaps it was a delayed reaction from an earlier incident.

Ormond Allen had the angry pills too. When he pushed Tape over after hitting Frewen in the face was great comedy.


All in all a great day at the SANFL.

This was very noticeable on the ABC coverage. Port was back to its old tricks. There was a lot of subtle filth in its play.

Thankfully I thought the umpires were pretty much on the ball. Neither side could get away with much filth. The holding-the-ball calls were a bit of a coin toss, but otherwise the refs were very good, IMO.

I think Port looked good, even better than the Eagles, on the few occasions when they got the ball flowing. If Port would concentrate on its own game - instead of trying to put the opposition off of theirs - it would stand a lot better chance of winning.

How BAD is Mark Harwood?? Shocking.

Another fine success story from the Glenelg Football Club!

Ormond Allen had the angry pills too. When he pushed Tape over after hitting Frewen in the face was great comedy.

Ormond-Allen was the worst perpetrator of filth in the whole match. Several times - notably in the last quarter - he jumped into a pack knee-first, collecting an Eagle head. He can count himself lucky that he won't be fronting the tribunal this week.

On the Skipworth incident - nothing will come of it, there is no evidence. But if Carr did deck him off the ball - and I do stress if - he deserves to be crucified. There is no lower act in football than to take out a player behind the play. It is tantamount to common assault.

And on the West-Norwood match: I for one was glad to see the Redlegs grind those over-rated hacks into the turf. It is a shame that Sturt could not displace those scrubbers from the finals in the first place; Sturt (or even South) would have made a far better spectacle than watching those nobodies start - and lose - a series of fights when the going got too tough for them. I believe that the loser called "Jones" retired after the match and is thus beyond suspension for his foul on-field antics. Well bugger that - an example should be made of him. I say put him up in stocks and pelt him with rotten fruit. Loser.

Incidentally the first SANFL player to be sent off was not Craig Balme. That dubious honour belongs to a Port reserves player. I forget who it was now, but I recall mentioning it in a newsgroup post back when it happened. Balme was the first league player to be sent off, some years afterwards.

Stay tuned, I may post some comments on the lower-grade matches if I get some more time later.

 

[Macca19]

Sorry but i find Floerani to be soft as all hell. One incident doesnt make a player tough. Ever since seing him at Alberton this year go into a brawl from behind then when someone went for him he ran out with his arms over his head as to say "please dont hurt me".
Poole got the ball to ground..he played ok.
That bouncing bal of O Conners was very clever...it wasnt a "fluke" leg break. If you kick the ball like that it will always turn like that.

as for the $50 dont be too sure yet!!! port have come b ack from this position before. We dont have our best side on the park tho...we are without Warrior, Bamford, Wait, S Burgoyne and Mcdowall from our best side.

Was good to see Ricky go to the reserves where he belongs.
As for Harwood - he had a dirty day but his year has been ok.
All Port forwards had a dirty day and to single him out aint fair.

You are kidding are you not?

Its an oval shaped ball that bounces differently every time it lands depending on the force of the kick the angle of the drop how heavy the ball is howl long the grass is

It was complete luck and for you to say otherwise is one of your most outlandish comments.

and IMO that's is certainly saying something.

did you see ormond allen in qtr 4 drop his knee onto pedlers throat when he was on the ground play had stopped and another port player was on top of pedler, then 2 minutes later he dropped his knees - both onto tape's back 3 times up & down then helped him get up as if he had a conscience.

.

exactly boof - on the one hand macca says one incident does not prove a player is not soft, yet on the other hand he then cites one example of why he believes he is soft.

watching the tape last night ginever credited floreani with an excellent 50/50 hard ball win to get the shot at goal downfield - the third port player coming at him was o'connor.

port's ruckmen were found out on the expanses of footy park.

i did not say anyone deserves an injury - in fact i said no-one deserves these type of injuries or would wish them apon anyone- just a comment about the footy gods!! i'm just sick of your biased crap about port having ball players - playing the man cost you the game yesterday in the first quarter.
so far you've mentioned carr & steed as being so fair (do you recall the incident with TOM CARR & DAVID GALLAGHER LAST YEAR AT WOODVILLE OVAL - i've got the tape and the ABC coverage strongly contradicts your argument - get the **** out of your eyes!! - what about carter, david brown, ormond allen, beinke, fiegert, poole, ashley,mcguinness,

please port not at full strength - well fu(k me what were the eagles - biglands, holland, crowell all out, clever list of names you've come up with - mcdowall was dropped yet you claim your not at full strength because he did not play - how comical

I doubt o'conner will get 6 votes in his 2 games against us this year.
The hook cast re his maragey medal favouritsm was more of a shot about how great you think he plays every week- funny he picked his worst game of the year for a final. Mainly the fact that you never give lindsay the credit he deserves - he killed 3 of your rucks on his own!!

Jones from west was an eagle discard.

Go EAGLES

And you think that I had a problem with Port supporters. Do you mean to say that because I am a Centrals supporter, that I would think opposition players deserve to get injured?!

Now that is poor. Piss poor.

Maybe you should have another look at that post when I ran off at the mouth a bit, you corrected me and I at least had the guts to say that I stood corrected. Now that is a stretch for a Centrals supporter, isn't it?!

Is it you that hates Centrals supporters?

Thanks a bloody lot.

 

[Boof458]

Re the sending off of Jones

I think Gary McIntosh was also sent off in an SANFL game when he was reported twice - the second one for tripping

It was a night game at the Parade if I remember rightly.


Why has Easty not come on to talk about the Glenelg reserves and under 19s beating the Eagles?

 

[killer]

I thought the standard was pretty ordinary in both games.
Centrals should win this year in a canter.

Go EAGLES

Jones also played with St Kilda.

you are a dikhead arent you. At least Jars/Boof has brains. I never said we ONLY had ball p layers. I said i COULD NOT REMEMBER SEEING CARR DO ANYTHING UNTOWARD. Obviously i was wrong. Every team has 'enforcers' of some sort. We have Poole and Ormond Allen. Eagles have Cicollela and Beveridge. Do YOU call THEM dirty? Do you recall the first match last year when all that Beveridge tried to do was deck about half a dozen Port players?? DO YOU REMEMBER WHEN HE DID THAT??? Talk about bias

Ashley as a body player?? WHAT??? Mcguiness?? He has probably only had one hard ball get in his life. God help if he actually laid a bone crunching tackle or bump. Ill give you Ormond Allen and Poole. OA spends most games trying to clock someone and i cant stand him in a Port guernsey. Poole, well he loses the plot sometimes. Carter also loses the plot but is also a tough hard player. Fiegert, how many times has he been reported? twice? not even that. Again, a tough footballer but more often shows his aggresion at the ball. Beinke is not a body player...that may sound contradicting to what he did on the weekend but thats the first time ive seen him ever do anything like that. Usually he is 100% ball player....but i was directly in front of what he did yesterday and the look in his eyes as he ran in was scary...he was out for blood...and it was a pathetic stupid thing. Ashley - again he has never been reported or down anything untoward and im wondeing if you just picked names from the paper. David Brown...again - how often has he been reported?? maybe once in his whole career...another player that plays the ball with 110% aggresion and doesnt resort to thumping players. Same mold as Pesch, but I wouldnt call him dirty. You might as well add Tony Brown, Poulton, O Conner, Wilson, and Green as well - as they attack the ball hard as well...that must mean they are dirty buggers. In fact why not just add the whole bloody Port Squad onto your thug list.

You honestly have no clue. Do you think Anthony Harvey is adirty body player as well? He puts his body on the line, and doesnt play the man, the same as Steed. Sure Steed doesnt have the pace or silky skills as Harvey but they play the same.


Steed - you mentioned the footy gods about him. How has he deserved a broken jaw, 2 knee recons??/ He has never been reported before...and the fact you think he is a body player shows your complete ignorance outside of Woodville Oval. He plays in exactly the same way as the Szillers used to play for the Eagles..yet would you call them body players? No - you wouldnt dare say that about them cos they are your own. Maybe YOU need to get **** out of your eyes. Steed is a tough nuggety rover who puts his body on the line for the team and isnt afraid to get hurt. Ive never seen him hit anybody or do anything dirty before, unless you call attacking the ball with 110% being dirty.


If your gonna name anyone that lays a tackle then i might as well name half the bloody Eagles side as well. Pesch, Matthew Kluzek, Beveridge, Wise (dirty bugger), Ciccolella (another arrogant jerk), Gallagher, Frewen, Tape, Lindsay (got reported against us remember), Manfield. I could even go thru past Eagles players too if you like.

You gladly had a go at Poole for "trying to deck everyone all game" yet thats all Cicollela did in the first half...played the man.
What about Lindsay. He is just a thug...dirty thug. He got reported for decking O Conner at Woodville this year if you remember. BUT YOU WOULD NEVER MENTION THAT WOULD YOU!!!

No i DONT recall Tom Carr and Gallagher...i dont have the tape...why would i keep a tape of a match we lost? I think we lost that game. Last year was a dirty year and ive tried to block it out.

Mcdowall would be part of our first 18 IN MY EYES. He is a lot better than Ormond Allen, Robertson, Mcguiness.

O'Conner was 2nd best on ground at the Port v Eagles match at Alberton...Shane Holmes was BOG...i doubt Holmes will get 3 votes so i would pick O Conner for 3 votes that game. O Conner was 5th best for Port in our win against Eagles at Woodville. Maybe not a vote there then. Still 3 votes from those two games. If you remember O COnner destroyed Lindsay AND Biglands at Woodville (the match where Lindsay DECKED O Conner - gee that dirty Eagle, hes a body player), and also destroyed your ruckmen at Alberton as well.

Ive kept all the footy mondays and if you recall he won the Advertiser medal already...now i will show you how many Magarey votes he should get 20 votes:
3 votes for - West at Richmond
Glenelg at Glenelg (first one)
Centrals at Alberton
Eagles at Woodville

2 votes - Sturt at Unley
Norwood at Parade
Glenelg at Alberton

1 vote - Sturt at Alberton
Glenelg at Glenelg (second one)

Ive seen the games, ive seen how dominating he has been, he should win the Magarey. Tony Brown will be right up there as well. The fact you only think he is a favourite cos im a port supporter shows again how ridiculous you are. Who do you think will win?? Hall? Colville? Pesch? Not a chance.
It will be between O Conner, Hollands, Tony Brown, Ed Richardson and maybe Bruce Lennon. Colville will be top 10 but not win it.

YOU are the one that needs to get the **** out your eyes

I think Gary McIntosh was also sent off in an SANFL game when he was reported twice - the second one for tripping

It was a night game at the Parade if I remember rightly.


Why has Easty not come on to talk about the Glenelg reserves and under 19s beating the Eagles?

oh he is back!! The lovable larrikin is back...just hasnt mentioned it yet!

And you think that I had a problem with Port supporters. Do you mean to say that because I am a Centrals supporter, that I would think opposition players deserve to get injured?!

Now that is poor. Piss poor.

Maybe you should have another look at that post when I ran off at the mouth a bit, you corrected me and I at least had the guts to say that I stood corrected. Now that is a stretch for a Centrals supporter, isn't it?!

Is it you that hates Centrals supporters?

Thanks a bloody lot.

Sorry raboyle. Didnt mean you. Ive heard Centrals supporters say that type of thing before at Port v Centrals games. The things they said about Poole when he got decked by Peter Green you could almost get arrested for!!

I stand corrected. Was a poor comment tho by myself.

You are kidding are you not?

Its an oval shaped ball that bounces differently every time it lands depending on the force of the kick the angle of the drop how heavy the ball is howl long the grass is

It was complete luck and for you to say otherwise is one of your most outlandish comments.

and IMO that's is certainly saying something.

The ball does not have a random machine in it which randomly picks which way too boounce. If you can read the ball well you can tell in the air which way it will bounce. How do you think Daicos kicked so many goals like O Conners in his career? its because he knew how the ball would bounce once he kicked it.
Its not hard to do...if you kick the ball around your body in that fashion it will curve around quite a lot. I actually thought he curved it around too much.
How bout we go for a kick when you have to hand over that $50 and ill show you what i mean.

Yes - Ormond Allen is a dirty player. No doubt about that...always has been since at the crows too.

Here is a bit of crap to feast your eyes on. Since the Crwos came into existence in 1991 this is the number of times the following sides have played off in the Second Semifinals (including this year):

Port - 7 (what would one expect) for 6 premierships
Eagles - 6 for 1 premiership
Centrals - 4 for 1 premiership
Norwood (1) , West, Sturt, South and North (1) - one each

Still believe we will have a repeat of last year - Eagles vs Centrals.

As an Eagles supporter, we have got to win the big one otherwise these efforts have count for nought. Whilst one would say we have reasonably successful, we have got to capture a flag.

OK Macca...I can forgive ya.

I guess with speaking evil about oppostion supporters here for a minute in your life, we have both done that here on Bigfooty.

As for Centrals supporters actually doing that...I think I know who you are talking about, but I have never heard them say anything in relation to deserving injuries but if that is true, then they are definately talking out of their arse.
