Old Scotch (24 points)
Marcellin (36 points)
Rupo (10 points)
De La (15 points)

i think a good close round
 
get real buddy...the top 3 in A grade last year were very good teams and in fact dela were a level above both bernards and xavs...there is no way that u can go and compare stbedes to these teams when they were competing against below average teams in B grade.

You guys are the pathetic ones, St. Bedes would have easily picked of any team in Premier.

I watched a couple of the games throughout the year and thought Xav's were better than De La... but the boys from Brindsi St would knock of both of them.

They had the best full forward in the u19 competition.

Along with neville and a bunch of other top gun players.

its a big step from b to premier and alot of sides that come up usually dont do too well as seen last year. good sides in b grade are usually poor in a grade not saying that st.bedes will be poor, however it will take a massive effort to beat any of the top sides last year.

I have to agree there, St bedes had close to the 2 best under 19 players in their side last yr, Neville is and out and out gun as to is hellier... its interesting to note that the best under 19 players from last yr actually didnt come from U19 premier sides... and there is no doubting that fact

but these players did not play a single game for the 19s last year. st bedes did lose a chunk of their premiership side through age this year, but their strenght this year is an improved depth of players. each week they are having 60 players on the track vying for a spot in either team.

On what are you basing this on...On what you have seen, from those playing in rep teams or the performance of some teams aka stbedes.

If you are basing it on the rep team i know that some clubs didnt actually nominate any of there players for the rep team
 
No one cares about last year so can we just move on.
Lets see how st. bedes go this year.
my tips for this week...
bernards over uni in a tought game. 3 goals ill say.
old scotch over skobs easily. skobs will struggle this year.
marcillon over blacks. both teams middle of the ladder this year. would be great to see some upsets from these two teams
st. bedes easily over rupo. rupo lack the talent but deserve respect.
dela over xavs. unsure about xavs this year. dela will have to much depth for them i suspect.
 
A majority of the players playing in the 19s rep team didnt even play any games at all in the u19s competition last year.. they all played in there senior teams at there respective clubs. st bedes last year probably were the best team in 19s comp as a whole, a year as strong as theres you couldnt deny that. even with a number of there guns being lost to seniors after round four. anyway.. i beleive that there team for this years premier division has alot of raw youth and does have alot of quality. Whether they can stand up to the hardness of 19s premier we will soon see.
 
big #32

st. bedes easily over rupo. rupo lack the talent but deserve respect.

Explain yourself. Do you know any of the rupo under 19 players? For example, offer us your opinion on three good ones and three talentless ones.
 
last year rupo had i think 8-10 u19s playing in there senior side most weeks. talking to a couple of ppl most of them still would be able to play 19s this year but will line up in their senior side once again (think they 3 or 4 of them make up the senior spine). they would be the talented ones.....unfortunately their u19s lack them bc they are playing seniors. never said their other players were talentless but they have to step up too high in my opinion....which is unfortunate. they have alot of speed off half back and through the mid field (kick goals in a flash) which is why respect should be given.
didnt name names coz i get confused putting their names to faces.
and y not pick st. bedes.........heard their apsolute champions (never would have beaten dela)

tips for this week robbo?

too hard to tip at this time of year. i'd be guessing just like you.

the guys playing seniors last year except for one didn't even train with the u19s. so imo can't be called u19 players. they were senior players. of the group who played last year I'm not sure if any are eligible to play u19s this year. in any case, if one or two were available they wouldn't play as the seniors need them.

there are probably a few in the u19 group who may get a chance with the seniors later in the season but nothing like the previous couple of seasons.

plenty of talent in this playing group even without the couple playing with the Calder Cannons.

it will not be a lack of talent over the next two seasons that holds them back. attitude may limit this group's achievements.
 
heres an idea. why dont we all just forget about SBMTs last year team and get on with this season. 2007 is in the past, st bedes played section 2 and thats fact. 2008 is here lets get excited.
personally think it will be tight for the finals with probably 6 teams fighting for top 4. hard to say who will finish where though as every team will lose some older bodies and most teams will be introducing new youthful blood. be good to see how all the teams shape up this weekend
look forward to the results

My tips for this week...

Bernards to beat the blues in a close one

Old scotch by 8 goals over skevs

Marcellin easily over the blacks by 10 goals

Stbedes to show that they arent all talk and smash rupo by 12 goals

In the match of the round Xavs to just pip the dela boys
 
looking forward to saturday and getting an idea of the possibilities for this season. Don't want to see the same four teams dominating. last year the final four was determined before round 10. Let's hope the competition is closer this year and the final four is settled late in the season.

Go Rupo.
 
bernards vs blues 1 goal
scotch vs skevs 3 goals
blacks vs marcellin 5 goals
rupo vs st bedes 6 goals
de la vs xavs 2 goals
should be a good round of footy with the four finalists all facing off
 
i think the first 2 rounds will be very indicative of whether the division of the top four from last year will be breached this year. the first round sees the top 4 squaring off and the 2nd sees the top four playing what i predict will be the bottom four. round 2 de la vs. st. bedes will be very interesting...

it's great that footy's back, looking forward to a great year
 
The main game between Rupo and St Bedes today was a fizzer. Game over at quarter time.

Rupo had plenty of examples last year to know what to expect from the top teams. Rupo's problem is that they have not learnt anything from the experiences. Top teams run hard at the ball and run harder when they get the ball. Top teams get numbers to the contest and support each other. Top teams win the clearances by having good players around the ball who have a plan. Top teams have better skills. Top teams are physically bigger, stronger and fitter. That is why they can do all these things.

Rupo. Change the emphasis from winning to improvement. Dedicate yourself to it. Improvement in leadership, fitness, strength, hardness, skills and planning should be the focus. Winning will take care of itself.

st bedes were quite good on satday. they ran well and linked well on occasions and their pressure was relentless. they impressed me and im sure rupertswood were impressed, especially seeing st bedes should have won by about 20 goals due to bad kicking.
next weeks game should be interesting, as De La may be expecting a pushover of a team, but if satdays game was anything to go by this is far from the truth

Yes, I haven't seen so many guys miss shots from 20 metres, apart
from Richo from Richmond !
 
just to all doubters of the dees
silenced all critics with a pounding ov old xavs without atleast 5 walk ups
big year once again for the de la boys 3 in a row is possible is the word on the streets
bedes v de la big match
 
de la vs bedes this week is a big game.. it will either shut bedes up who claim they are as big as ben hur or prove they are serious premier division contenders. i predict de by 3 goals because of some valuable inclusions this week i here

I don't believe St Bedes have said they are as big as ben hur this year. maybe last year. There are many new faces this year, and its too early to tell whether they will be a formidable force.
So lets keep it low key VAFAFAN.

i agree with pulse.. noone from st bedes are claiming big things this year. last year was a different story but this year they are full of fresh faces and just happy to have a challenge.
(and you spell hear like that vafafan)
