FWIW that is pretty disrespectful to guys like Adam Sleigh who have been a stalwart of the club for many years for no cash. Maybe in the early days there were rumours but seriously who do you think they are paying? You dont like it when your mob gets accused of it - pot kettle black........

I'm shocked to be typing this but that is a cheap ($$) shot, Briza.

In summary - the Ormond boys think they've won the flag (in May) after beating an undermanned St Marys outfit. They also have abusive supporters.

My tip for the GF - Kew v St Marys. Both sides will have too much youth, speed and fitness for Ormond later in the season

Usually speed and fitness wavers by the end of the season.
History shows that youth burn out after a long season and experience comes to the front.
Granted SMS had players unavailable but so did Ormond.
Ironically it was Ormonds youth and speed that made SMS look slow.

Was my first Monds game attended this season and it would take a bold punter to predict them to not be there on grand final day.
That's my 2c.

Round 5 selections.

NOBS/StPats v Old Geelong. Oggers by a bit.
Bulleen Temp. v Kew. The Bears have yet to find their level in the current competition. Good news for a district club. I mean, for their long time members and supporters. Mr.Aitken aside.
Prahran v Ormond. Match of the round, nay, season I reckon. Close result is on the cards. Ormond win this and they are able to claim favourite status.
Old Mentonians v Yarra Valley Old boys. Get the job done.
Whitefriars v St Marys Salesian. The boys from Glen Iris are finding their limit in this division. Richo might shout me down for this. (Do I looked bothered?)

Of course I could wait for Clint McCoy's selections.;)

Some big margins there Bob, I reckon the Friars at home might get a tad closer

Yeah, SMS seem to either win big or not at all. Depends which side turns up i guess. I also class Ormond a ways above prahran and reckon class will prevail in the end, though prahran may be in it up until 3/4 time. The others are pretty straight forward one would think.

What do you have against Brian Aitken, Kew's coach? Coach of U18 and D3 Premiership sides in 2013 and D2 Premiership side in 2014. Sounds pretty impressive to me.
 
What is going on at Ormond... One dickhead supporter felt the need to verbally abuse and get in the face of a female SMS supporter after she told him to shut up. Lucky he didn't get his head kicked in. Ormond's team was great in victory on Saturday, its a shame it was let down by the moron who is seen in the picture on the first post presenting a jumper to their new coach. The team has been great so far but everyone questioning their abilitiy to run out a season. Surely they will be fine. Chisolm and Coghlan seem very impressive for them so far. Chisolm too good over head and Coghlan way too good in the guts for most opponents.
Does anyone know what happened to Bulleen on the weekend...Did they get lucky on ANZAC day or are they capable of playing that standard consistantly. Cherbakof's 9 a fluke or what? Can take a grab but can he produce consistantly.
Are NOBS as good as everyone thought they would be?? They're balled mid whose name escapes me seems to be the only one who steps up every week.
Kew look to have the early jump on the competition but can they're team cut it against Ormond?? Feel like Brazzale and Cochrane will have to pull them over the line together. Both great players and can step up to the plate each week. Can't wait to see them both go head to head with Ormond.
Finally the big talking point is SMS. They looked dangerous early but have been woeful since. Everyone labelling them soft. Gary Purutatemi seems like a downhill skier for them from what I've seen. Jones, Dolan and Chipperfield seem to be the only ones who want it. Dolan a solid recruit from a Premier B club and consistantly finds the ball as he runs, and Jones and Chiipperfield great extractors but need outside help.

I know its early on but these are the teams with the questions marks I feel.
 
Get your facts right, that DH you refer to was just questioning a couple of players in yellow about their commitment to the contest when this blonde women walked behind him and told him to stop yelling out at the footy. That's it and then her DH son went and lent over the fence from the playing field having a go at him and at one stage it looked like mummies boy might hit him. Can't wait for the return bout.

That sounds like the President Richie that you are referring to and he would only speak to an opposition person if they had crossed the line. Obviously she had crossed the line..
 
Who is the woman to tell anyone to stop supporting or having a go at an opposition player? If she was upset he was having a go at her son, maybe he should put on a skirt & go play netball!

Banter has been happening at grounds for decades, if she can't handle her son being yelled at, here's a tip, don't watch him!
