DLS v OT - DLS has too much depth for OT. DLS by 62 pts

OX v OM - The x-men wont be troubled here. OX by 45 pts

Blues beat Collegians by over 100 points. Jack Watts dominant.

On that form, the premiership will be out of UB, DLS & OX.

Looks like Vafa.com.au is back to it's absolute best. 7pm & no results. It would help if the VAFA's "Communication's Manager" stopped jugging back beers at the Pavy after the game!

Might have to fire off an e-mail to my old teacher mate Mr. Sholly.

 

[The Octopus]

Hard for Coll to forget and easy for others to remember that in conditions where 'head over the ball' footy was required, someone was nowhere to be seen.

DLS - 3.00
OX - 3.50
Uni - 9.00
Stb - 15.00
Coll - 25.00

Maybe you should get yourself a life and move away from your computer at 7pm on a saturday night.

Try signing up to the text message service, then you can get the results while enjoying your weekend as opposed to waiting for the results online inbetween breaks playing warcraft.

We all know Marcellin are going down but who will be joining them.

OS - Would love to see it, but I think they are just a little better than the teams around them
OT - Started off well but dropped off the past few, watched them on the weekend and if they continue to play like that they will go down
OM - Sitting ok at the moment, need to pinch a win off a higher placed side in the second half of the year but still a chance
OB - Competitive of late and could have knocked off De La, thought they were good things on Saturday but well done OS.

My tip OT to join their neighbours in "B" Grade.

AFL clubs cast net far and wide in search of that special talent
PAUL DAFFEY
June 9, 2010
IN THE SHEDS
IN 2004, Victorian suburban and country footballers would have thought it more likely to be drafted into an astronaut program than be drafted onto an AFL list. Even the VFL was barely on the radar for AFL clubs. Few recruiting managers were prepared to look beyond the elite under-18 competition, the TAC Cup.
There was one exception. Midway through the 2004 season, Sydney recruiting boss Ricky Barham went to the Victorian country footy championships at Ballarat and saw a tall wingman and forward make a claim to become local footy's Chuck Yeager. The player was 20-year-old Luke Vogels from the Hampden league.
At the end of the year, Barham bucked recent convention and drafted Vogels from Terang-Mortlake onto the Sydney rookie list, largely on the strength of his inter-league performance.
Vogels made his AFL debut in round seven, 2005, and created a commotion a fortnight later when he kicked two late goals to be the Swans' match winner against the Bulldogs. He was de-listed after the 2007 season.
He now plays for East Ringwood. He had a quiet game as East Ringwood lost to South Croydon at the weekend, but his legacy to potential AFL players remains.
The prospect of compromised AFL drafts over the next few years has forced recruiting staff to cast their nets wider. Country and suburban inter-league games are under scrutiny. Late last month, AFL scouts were dotted around the terraces at Lavington when the Goulburn Valley defeated Ovens and Murray in the match to decide the best league in country Victoria.
A few teenagers impressed, especially Goulburn Valley half-back Tom Durward, a tall, athletic type from Tatura. On the same weekend Ariel Steinberg, a 17-year-old full-forward from Mildura Imperials, kicked seven goals for the Sunraysia league in its victory over the Western Border league at Horsham.
On Sunday, Durward and Steinberg will be in the Victorian Country Football League under-19 team that takes on the under-19s from the Victorian Amateurs at Sportscover Arena in Elsternwick. AFL recruiters are sure to be dotted around the ground.
AFL recruiters this season have already kept a close eye on Amateurs teenagers Dan Noonan and Dan Nicholson.
Noonan is a key forward from Old Xaverians, while Nicholson is a wingman and half-back from the Western District.
Nicholson went to school at St Pat's Ballarat and, having come to Melbourne to study, is now in his second season with University Blues. Some claim the speedy 19-year-old is the best player in Premier Section.
In a recent game, Nicholson was tagged by an Old Melburnians player whose teammates call him Turbo. By the end of the game, Turbo was looking for a new nickname.
Against Old Xaverians, Nicholson burned off opponents from the wing to the top of the goal square, only to be denied the chance to kick the goal of the year when he was pinged for running too far.
Sunday's under-19 game is a curtain-raiser to the senior match between the Victorian Amateur Football Association and an AFL Sydney team. Get ready for blast-off.

Looks like he'll get drafted.
