Rate my boys the biggest underdog of the round Matty?? Probably fair, Macedon have to be clear favorites.... HFF would agree... He was telling everyone that would listen that being at yesterday's finals was the closest any of the Kangaroos boys would get to winning a flag...

To be fair, the only time I saw the Kangas was at Woodend. And we all know HFF has some cards up his sleeve. But I'm sure you have a rabbit in your hat too. I'll have the car parked at Gilbert Gordon at 9am.

Thats a fair assessment, plus with Macedon getting James Wright, Joel Plowman and Al Collins back, who can only add skill, leadership and experience to the line up. They will be a very strong combination... Hard to beat... :thumbsu:

Stop playing yourselves down as underdogs, what is it about coaches and trying to do that?

You have your fair share of talent and to beat a fired up Riddell on Saturday shows you have what it takes.

After getting well beaten on the swampy Gilbert Gordon, I'm sure you won't want any rain this week. As for Macedon, perhaps they will be hoping for a downpour on Friday night?

Not at all mate.. I am just humble coming up against the man who has arguably been the best under age coach of footballers in our league for the past 6 or so years. He has a knack of assembling very good sides, and I am looking forward to the challenge that faces us this week.... :thumbsu:

Yes but you're supposed to play up your chances.

As for HFF, I think you're pretty safe to say that he has been THE best under age coach in this area over the last five or six years. Porky has also been brilliant, but no match for HFF in my opinion.

Agree totally... Hopefully he can be a little more humble about it than he was yesterday though... :thumbsu:

Was he on the bourbon? Hopefully the Hawks know you two blokes will be there, with Mongrel to come after the seniors. There may not be enough of the stuff in town.

I am sure there may be a couple of drinks consumed after the game...
 
Congratulations to all sides making the finals. I think it will be a very interesting series at that. The only favourite would be Woodend under 18s at the moment undefeated. Woodend seniors just starting to peak at the right time. Can Riddell go to another level in the next few weeks?? IMS your side pushed Riddell all the way and that should give you confidence going into the finals after a disappointing loss last week with still Miskin to come in. Diggers would be most happy playing a final on a SATURDAY!! Can Romsey bounce back this week Harry ?? Are there any injury worries I dont think we'll find that out all hush hush with finals here. Most enjoyable 4 weeks coming up may the best teams win.

It will be a huge week in finals this week. I think, in my humble opinion, that Romsey will bounce back. Considering the Redbacks were missing Dave Keenan, probably our best defender this year, coming off half back, Brydan Morgan, probably our best mid-fielder and AJ Higgins, one of our best half forward flankers, we did pretty well against a full strength (?? could be wrong ??) Hawks outfit. Two points down at 3/4 time we ran out of legs as we had a couple of blokes step up again after playing reserves or u18's. We have had a couple of good wins against the Burra this year and we will be riding high on the back of a great team effort against Woodend. There are a few blokes that have hit some form in the last month or so for the Redbacks that will help them through. The Burra cannot and will not be taken lightly. They are always a danger at the pointy end of the season. I'm jumping out of my skin. I can't wait. I don;t care where we play, as long as it doesn't pour rain this week, it'll be a cracking game.:thumbsu:
 
What a weekend it shall be.. 6 great games of football, 4 great games of netball.. Highs and lows and all of the intensity of finals football, all capped off with a big Bowen Medal night on Monday night.. Cant wait.... :thumbsu:

Ladies and Gentlemen ,Boys and Girls, we now know why the government is trailing in the polls their (spin doctor) is now in IMS camp or is it IMS himself ??

Is this the same spin doctor who made up the Macedon Gazzette a few years ago. Watch out Matt or you will also be quoted in a fictitious paper put in print and plastered all over the clubrooms.

Its GAME ON!!!!!!!!!!!!!:D:D
