u19 section 1

[VAFA19s]

footy_nerd,

Bloody oath! Great post about any bloke who feels the need to come on here and correct another. Just stick to the footy or get lost.

On that note, how are the various teams going injury-wise/list-wise at this early stage in the season? many to come back?: i know xavs and skobs still have about 5 to come back each until near full strength, and de la are still missing a few as well. Any info on other teams would be good so we can work out what's going on here and who's in the running for finals as the season progresses; rupi's over marcellin, who lost by 5pts to the supposedly potential-powerhouse bernards the week before? uni, who were thumped by marcellin, having the wood on bernards? must have be some serious changes going on so far?

Also, i think certainly the woodsmen are on the up after being underestimated early. At the moment, as far as i can tell, xavs & de la seem in a league of their own, with bernards, UB's and marcellin (we can throw in woodsmen now) all in with a real crack: however as yet, neither the dairy-bells or OX has played either any of the others. Should be interesting when it happens...

Cheers.

hey eddie wolescock, and all you other private school p o ofs who think it is their job to correct everyone elses grammar, get your head out the books and put it over the pill, since when did this become a thread about the particulars of the english language. Who cares where the apostrophes go, the most imprtant thing is that the sherrin flies through the big sticks on a saturday afternoon more times than the opposition. You private school toffs need to realise this, the sooner you do the more chances you have of getting a win on the board. Get the silver spoon out your proverbial and get focused on the footy.

On another note, a game that will ultimately decide the wooden spooner, the ulers take on collegians in what in my view is a game where there doesn't deserve to be a winner. Both clubs have seriously jepordised the intergrity of this years u19 competition by their insipid perfomances thus far and their respective clubs should be disappointed in the attitude they have demonstrated towards the u19 comp.

Two very long sentences there my friend. Have you heard of the full-stop before? (.).

Congratulations. We never realised English is not your native tongue, yet you speak it so . . . so approximately. Perhaps when next you play the private school boys, you will be taught lessons in both football and in English.

Battlers; keep it on the footy yap.

wolescock, first of all i don't play for rupo and second of all it is now round 5 and judging by the results rupo have already proved themselves against the more fancied private school p o o f ters. I was talking to a senior member of of the committee at Old Xavs and he highlighted that Xavs and other section 1 clubs despise rupo due to their sudden and rapid raise to the highist level of underage football. Other clubs have fought for years and years to get to where they are today whereas rupo have seemingly been promoted at a grade every year due to their successful season campaigns. Do i sense a hint of jealously, from all reports rupo are generally the smaller team on the park each week but their hardness at the pill and courage shown is what against them over the line against the softer private school teams that continue to shirk the issue when the hard ball is their to be won.

if this is the case it is extremely disappointing and perhaps you should fix the troubles facing you and your private school team before correcting peoples grammar and spelling.

footy nerd do you really feel that inferior to people who went to a private school, so inferior that it makes you have a crack at them on a footy forum? unless thats how you were taught at high school, that is if you attended past year 8?

 

[OldMelburnian28]

Ladies and gentlemen welcome to the English superiority challenge, where individuals gather on forums to discuss who attended more expensive schools, and are therefore smarter.

Tomorrow…speed typing contests and discussion on who had better toilet facilities!!!

 

[The Rupo Road Train]

My fellow forum members. Today there has been some devestating news for the rupo boys. Beau Lovett has recieved confirmation that he has strained ligaments in his ankle. He will miss 2 to 3 weeks. Will this be a problem for the rupo boys, not having a strong target at full foreward. How will this affect the rupo boys?

 

[The Rupo Road Train]

Also there has been some talk that the likes of Quigley, Baddely and McPhee are in line for Rep side call ups. Are they up to this standard. I think so. How could they not be picked.

HAHA that's bull.

i no this shows some of the jokes posting on bf

footy_nerd,

ship off. some of my best mates play for xavs and the REAL word is that they don't despise rupo at all; who would despise a team or club for putting in an A-grade effort and making it to div 1? [feel free to drop the name of this 'senior member of of the committee' if what you're saying is in fact true]. if anyone despises anyone else, its all from school rivalries between private school 'p o o f s' that you can't seem to get past (eg- Scotch v. Skevs). Suggestions of jealousy are just ridiculous, so how about instead of commenting on people, rather discuss the footy itself.

As you said, it's round 5: probably a bit early to do so much labelling. But i do conceed that rupo look to be right up there.

IN regards to that, The Rupo Road Train, the news about beau lovett, thats just no good. With the woodsmen seemingly coming the goods in the past couple of weeks they really needed to keep a strong team and win a few tests coming up in order to cement themselves as a finals contender. But as was mentioned, they seem to have the depth to be able to cover this loss? I only really know about the xavs, but they've only had both their CHF and FF for 1, match this year (against banyule), with their FF not playing in any others, and their CHF for only 1 of the other 3. So i guess it happens to all teams: rupo will be right i reckon, despite it being a temporary setback. Thank heavens it was only 2-3 weeks and not more eh? The word of 3 possible rep-teamers is also good; more proof of rupo's undeniable quality i reckon.

would milnedog, by chance, have drank from a beer-bong some time on saturday night at a certain club function...?

Maybe, depends who's asking.

 

[VAFA19s]

look for the number 33 upon a striped guernsey

 

[VAFA19s]

Does anyone know who, if anyone, the 19 rep team plays? does it play other league's rep teams? go interstate? How many nominations does each team have?
Cheers.

 

[linger_isgod]

They play against a QLD side of some sort, in a curtain raiser @ the Gabba on the long weekend coming up.

what does that have to do with old xavs?? how could we possibly be jealous of a team by the name of 'rupo', or something along those lines, that no one has heard of. xavs are in A grade (won it last year, mind you), A reserve, have two teams in Club 18 (section 1), and under 19's in section 1, and a team in the red division as well, which could easily compete with the lesser likes of section one, such as 'rupo' and banyule.
so, tell me again please, what does the most prestigious and most successful amateur club in the country have to be jealous about again please?

 

[go_the_cattas]

i've been following the under 19's section 1 competition for about 5 years now. i would just like to say how impressed i have been with the early form of Rupertswood. Their pace across the ground and ball carrying ability make them the side to beat this season. With guns such as ryan, green, jacobs and brown to return to the side this week against Uni Blues they are sure to hand the Blues their @rses on a silver platter. As for bernards i was extremely dissapointed to watch their atrocious display of football last saturday. They were completely outclassed by a Blues team who would be struggling in Section 2. Hopefully by the time Bernards play rupertswood they will have ironed out the creases in their game, and make a contest out of it. As a non biased spectator i'm sure looking forward to rupertswood putting on a show this weekend when iventure down from my toorak mansion.

P.S. The loss of lovett due to his foot injury will surely dampen the spirits of the rupertswood boys.

spin the wheel barry.

 

[dan caplan]

No, footy_nerd, not even if you start barracking for AJAX.

I will not respond to your PM's so just say what you have to say out in the open.

You are very forward for someone who appears so homophobic in his posts!

UNI blues will surprise you, it took them a couple of weeks to gel together because most of them don't even know eachother at the start of the year compared to most of the other teams where most of the players were at school together. They're always a good unit and will only get better.

that is utter crap. Xavs 2nd u19 side is in the very worst division, and will struggle in that as it is. rupertswood are playing good footy (despite dela's demolition of them in round 1) and even though banyule are struggling they would still give xavs 2's an absoloute smashing.

come on buddy strained ligaments should neva keep u out. im sure ur bloke will play and if he doesnt ur team should tell him he is soft!

 

[VAFA19s]

don't come on here making riduculous comments like that akron; can't have watched much of banyule if you think they'd beat xavs 2's: they are out and out rubbish... the xavs 1s (who beat banyule by 23 goals) wouldn't beat their 2's by half that. the reason that xavs 2's are in red is because there was no 19 2's for xavs last year, and so this year the team has to start in the lowest division and work its way up (it can't just go straight to div 3 or 2 or 1, even if they are better), not at the top and be relegated down; that wouldn't be a fair way to run the comp now would it? watch some football before making such comments again, for the good of the thread and what little credability you aim to have on it.
Also, what is everyone's obsession with teams being 'soft' on this thread? I very much doubt that any team plays 'soft' football (everyone has their hard-nuts), id say its more about which team has the ticker to bounce back and go the distance in a game and in the season...

 

[OldMelburnian28]

Here are my tips for the week:
Rupo way to good for uni blues
Old Xavs over Marcellin easily, i feel that Marcellin's season is close to being finished with a couple of big losses...cant be good for their confidence. No ticker down at the M camp.
Banyule Vs Collegians...who cares??? honestly!!
Old Scotch will give the berdards boys a lesson in football, bring your note pad and pens boys!
Sorry St Kevs Cowboy, im gonna tip against your boys again.
