SFNL Div 2 2025

Hard fought contest between Highett and CH but an epic finish with the winning Highett goal sailing through the big sticks as the final siren went, sending Bulldog fans delirious and rightly so. Multiple lead changes, with neither side able to master the tricky breeze. CH seriously need to have a good look at themselves, resorting to continuous behind the play hits and headbutting - that sort of rubbish belongs in the EDFL second division.

Great win by Highett, but these comments are totally false! Game played in good spirit,with Highett proving they are a top,young,slick team!Most of their list coming through the juniors!
 
Attended the venue, watched the 2nd half ressies match then the seniors all the way until the final siren - took pics and video clips. The camera doesn't lie champ. CH conducted themselves in a similar manner against Highett earlier in the year. A decent portion of their list are absolute grubs and some of their fans are for the tip. There's a clear difference between playing hard and taking pot shots behind the play.

Post them here for all to view, then there's no he said/ she said.
Cheers
 
My tips both wrong but happy to admit it as well.
Mordy, well done a massive scalp in EM
Highett, doesn't suprise me as they're quality and CH are still a chance.

The remaining teams will be happy East Malvern are eliminated.
 
Another wasted season at the Zoo.

East Malvern may see a large exodus of players after a very disappointing end to the season. As they say bad kicking is bad football.

Its always surprised me that they haven't recruited from the glut of VAFA sides within a stones throw of DW Lucas. Some players would easily be swayed with a little coin and most likely run rings around the opposition.

Back to being also rans stuck in no mans land of Div 2.
 
Very true, God Yeah. There are plenty of ex-East Malvern juniors running around in VAFA teams like Old Caulfield Grammar reserves that would destroy SNFL Div 2 footy. Not sure why EM don't try and entice them home.

I'm hearing the return of Chris Carey may have to be the white knight. He'd be getting on in age now though

Unfortunately for the senior club, their is no alignment other than playing at the same venue.

In saying that, EM juniors stopping (most years) at U/16 and the senior club not having an U/19 team leaves a massive disconnect between the clubs.

The demographic of kids in the area who continue to play football as young adults, align themselves with the private secondary school they attended (St Kevins, Caulfield, De La, Xavier, Wesley).

Tips for this week.

HP to beat Highett, again I didn't tip Highett last week but it doesn't suprise me they made it to this match. Highett have performed well v HP this season but I just think HP will get over the line in a close one.

CH to beat Mordy, CH have lost both times this season v Mordy who will be confident but CH will be to strong in a final.
 
Highett had no answer to Hampton Park's ruckman. He is a jet. When you give the other team a 2 quarter head start, its a tough slog.

He played well king he’s actually there second ruckman Hawkin’s was out injured today so he did most of it he usually plays back forward and chops out Hawkins as the second ruckman
