SFNL Div 2 2025

[thelocalbigdog]

Feel for Ehills when all of their depth players are chasing a flag in the 3s because they've shit the bed 3 seasons in a row in the 2s! cowards

That's bad for the blokes in the seniors who face up week after week aye knowin the game maybe gone after half time or earlier, those blokes are the ones who I feel for

 

[thelocalbigdog]

Think Frankston still a chance of playing finals Doveton probably to far behind now and e/hils seem to have fallen apart since beating H/P and look like being relegated might come down to depth players seem to miss more games this time of the year but on some of the results this year who knows seems it’s the most even Div 2 for years

I think this game is Frankstons do or die game.
Lose and they could go 3 games out of a finals spot depending on CH and Mordi results (also Highetts results too on 20p)
Win and they stay in contention just.

My danger game this week!

Today at Turner Rd reserve was at times a spiteful encounter with Highett reversing the good friday result against Mordy. The doggies came out firing in the first and as the game wore on, they rediscovered their ability to rapidly counter attack and nullify the bloods whenever a challenge was mounted. The effort on display today showed that early season wins over EM and HP were no fluke. Mordy to their credit did put in an effort in patches but a mixture of ill discipline and turnovers hurt them. Huge test next week for Highett taking on HP at home.

Hampton park got around 9 missing at the moment as well hard to pick most sides with any certainty this year good competition i think

Definitely one of the more scrappy contested & aggressive games I've watched for awhile (via SFNL Sportscast).

Highett in control all game but they'd be worried about their last quarter fadeouts

who's everyones predictions? I still think HP and EM are above the rest, don't think Highett can go with them when the whips are cracking. Anything on Cameron from EM? Hasn't played in a while.

Throw CH in there, a bit inconsistent but more than capable on their day, the best of the rest for sure. The ladder doesn't lie.

Hills have maybe 8 senior blokes, that are walk up starts, who are available for them today against Hampton Park!
Must have massive numbers on the injured list, surely none are at the snow for opening day

How as a club you can show up with 18 in your 2s but have 5 on the bench in your open grade team is embarrassing from there committee and coaching staff to let a bunch of bloke dictate who plays where

Only won 3 of 4 against HP and EM and held a 5 goals lead in the one they lost.

Match up well against the big dogs….why the losses against some of the also rans?

Certainly is, but the demographic area means that they are pretty much held to ransom and few stay back for drinks. It was a poor crowd, expected more Redbacks supporters there following there club.

Same blokes who openly brag about not paying subs!

Is this Endeavour Hills? Credit to them in getting up into Division 2 but even with the league giving them finals which is a financial boost they couldn’t put together a list that could win D2 games. Saw them play at East Malvern last year and they don’t have a big following and their 2s carried on a bit. Safe to say that CPL and St Kilda City are much more suited to D2 than Endevour Hills

Agree with all this.
EH had a massive ego but as all teams do when they go up. They eventually get chopped down. Divi 2 is a different beast

Where will finals be this year? Can't have Mordialloc again. Maybe Springvale?

Overport Reserve in Frankston would be an ideal venue for divisions 2-4

Gated, ample parking, decent sized ground, great viewing from the hill

not gated, almost impossible to gate, and it's a public park. otherwise, ticks plenty of boxes

Parking is okay but parking outside of the ground is awful if it’s wet that top paddock will be bog central

 

[don_draper]

EH all but gone now, if they weren't already. 12 points and % adrift with 4 to play. A sharp decline. Doubt many div 2 teams will miss heading out there.

No div 3 clubs want to go there either
