Was great to have footy back on!
Unfortunately it wasn't our day today, falling to a solid Alex unit. JPW tried hard by kicking a handful,but the writing was on the wall early. Alex Hills would have put us to bed by quarter time, but we did apply some good pressure as well as their errant kicking in front of goal. 6 and a half goals for mine was a fair margin.
Looks like other games around the comp were very interesting.
Gympie got given a touch up by Ipswich. Hate to think how hot the weather would have been 2 hours up the highway.
The grand final rematch between MB and PR appeared to be pretty one sided. Perhaps Pine have dropped off like first thought. Wonder which sides on their week off went for a look?
Kenmore and Redcliffe was a close result. Any reports?
Corrie's Yeronga started their re entry into the comp on the right foot. Congratulations to that group.
And Jindalee looked like they were the surprise packet this round beating Park Ridge in a high scoring match. Any reports?

Don't even know why Gympie hung around in the comp, surely going back north or Friday footy was a better option. Hinterland poached their 2 strong forwards and their best player. Only 3 or 4 running round in their seniors left from their wide bay senior premiership. Don't see them lasting the season. Getting flogged every week isn't gonna do much good for holding who is left.
Fyi I'm a former bigfooty member in this thread from a few years back just forgot my account details lol.

Yep interested to know have jindalee improved that much or did park ridge have a dirty day.
Gympie are in the comp.
So it seems pointless to worry about it.
Hope they back up every week.
Almost every club has hit a low point.
But sticking at it is there only option.

Could be mistaken, but it also looked like on the team sheet that Ipswich only had 19 themselves which makes the win even more remarkable.
Jindalee massive improvers Buck. Think they will play finals if competition hasn’t moved much from last year.
We were way off with heap missing which we knew was always going to be a danger round 1. But full credit to Jags they ran hard and took their chances.
Will be a better side on a bigger ground as well I reckon as they young and just run. Umpires were poor standard as usual. 6 x 50’s that resulted in goals for them from very minor issues. Think it was 9 to 1 with 50’s which doesn’t help on small ground.
No use complaining as they won’t get any better just need to live with it and adjust. Thought both sides handle the new man on mark rule.
Jags moved the ball really well. Pirates missed a lot of set shots and jindalee didnt.
Honestly those two umpires were terrible. The female umpire can’t even throw the ball up high enough in a stoppage. The other umpire is to heavy to get around the ground.
kassaulke is a work horse. Looked liked he rucked all day in hot conditions. If pirates kick straight they win. Thomson looked like he had something wrong with his foot as he was limping all day.

Poor post and complaining about umpires
Get a div or two like you where supossed
To I'm sure the umpires are better there
Complains about a poor post with poor spelling
I checked out all senior and reserve team sheets on Friday and noticed a few clubs didn't name 22 in the 2s. Is this due to clubs awaiting clearances or are we genuinely struggling for participants at this level?
Regos more then likely
I hope so Box, because we've had a great competition over the last few seasons at all grades and I'd hate to see clubs struggling numbers-wise in April.
We had 14 out across both grades yesterday so we’re stretched a bit. Hopefully back to normal in next few weeks as very frustrating scratching for numbers.
Still Me, 14 out? Is that a coincidence, bad luck or poor timing due the start to the season? I know the original Rd 1 date was 17/04 but with the addition of Kenmore it was moved forward.
The big question Pugs is if you feel Kenmore pulled one over the league by not moving up to Div 1
No comment Barry.

I was thinking a few of their Colts may have aged out and stuck fat with the club.
Which is great for them.
I'm sure when they came in this would have been part of the plan.
Good luck to them.
Having umpired for the last few years as well.
I'm staying out of that conversation.
But round one showed us a bit on results but it's a long year.
I we be more interested around round 9 when everyone has had to back up week after week.
Bit of both mate. About 4 injured and rest either work or planned things prior to season starting but yes think date trapped a few but not all of them.
Footy not a priority as it was in our day mate. Seems to get pushed aside for varying reasons nowadays
Totally understand that Skyfire and do appreciate they get out and have a crack. Just get very bemused when they try and be very technical and pay 50 m penalties for very minor issues and then miss howlers or 17 year old kids getting slung and knocked out cold in first senior game.
Hard to front angry parents and a kid that will now miss 4-6 weeks if he even plays again this season.
Understand we are all human and make mistakes, but need to protect the kids we are all trying to develop.
why do people still care? They hardly beat Redcliffe. Could have folded If they stayed in div 1

I think some umpires at this level don't really have an understanding of how to play the game.
If you nit pick you will blow your whistle all day.
My way was to pay the obvious and let th 50/50s play on.
But any foul play was pulled up very quickly as it can exclaute very quickly.
But ATM the new rules are still confusing for umps who get 100k a year to do it.
Shouldn't expect too much from local umps.
Not sure how the numbers are for umps in Brisbane comps.
But it looks like they are light on to me.
So you get what available and that's it.
Let's be honest here in the twos you supply field and goal.
They gave up on boundary as it was all to hard.
It flows down hill lads and were at the bottom with the bucket.
