Ugly, never said the coach was gone, I said there were rumblings. They were very impressive vs St Bedes for 3 quarters and with Bolton, Pask and Lalich they might just avoid the drop, would be great for all of my Blacks friends.

Amend that to two and i'll agree with you. Bevo said that afternoon that he couldn't understand how Blacks hadn't won a game yet, because he rated them a far far better side than that.

The word from Xavs is that they were extremely impressed with the Blacks side that ran out on the park, and they will definately win more games before the season ends.

Is Will Slade going to play for them as well?

I have heard it mentioned by a couple of Geelong supporters I know who know him well. Could be a goer by the sounds of it.

Relegation Is A Dirty Word

I have completed analysis on the next six rounds. Given current form and given that the top 4 maintain their winning ratios, I have come up with the following table.

Round No. De La Blacks OT Blues OI OB
Points 8 10 12 20 24 28
13 OB Blues OI Blacks OT De La
14 OI OB OX OS De La Blacks
15 OS Coll St Be OB OX Blues
16 St. Be OI Coll OX Blacks OS
17 OT St. Be De La OI Blues Coll
18 Blacks De La OS Coll St. Be OX
Top 4 2 2 4 2 3 3
Final 8 18 16 20 40 40

De La's season really hinges on the last two weeks. Needs to win at least 3.
Black's really need to bet Blues this week. If yes momentum will see them safe.
OT needs to knock off OI at Marles to be a chance to stay up. Hardest draw of the bottom 6. 2 wins should see them in A again, just.
Blues could not win another game and be safe. One win to be sure
OI needs the bottom 2 to win 4 of the next 6 without winning a game. Not likely after beating OS last week. If OS faulter could be a roughie
OB, safe, however if they wake up could push the final 4. If go skiing, they could see one of the bottom 3 stay aloft. If OS faulter, should be ready to play in the 1st Semi.

Table function on Bigfoory is crap

You have confused the shizen out of me!!!!!!!!!
 
Re: Relegation Is A Dirty Word

It was supposed to be a table of who plays who over the next 6 rounds, excluding the top 4.

Hopefully the words described the table better than the table describes the table.

I think the battle for the top 4 is a lot more interesting than the relegation battle...

6 teams a chance to play finals, while only 3 a realistic chance for relegation... Uni lues is the only team stuck in no mans land in my opinion...

If the top 2 can have wins this week, while Brighton and Ivan can beat there lower placed opponents, then it will be one hell of an interesting final 5 weeks coming up for that 3rd and 4th spot....
 
Old Ivanhoe were missing three of their very best on Saturday, and still BRAINED Old Scotch. With the combination of Butler returning, and Toovey being on the verge of regaining the form that saw him win a club B+F (and be proclaimed as "the VAFA's best player" by a very senior opposition coach), Old Ivanhoe could cause all manner of problems come finals time... Especially if Brett Nagel keeps being allowed to bomb the ball forward of centre after playing on from the kick outs!

I have seen them play 4 times this year, 2 very good games and 2 very bad. If they can maintain good form then yea they will shake a few teams around but i can't see it happening to be honest. They are pretty heavy and the weather would have suited them + they play Chelsworth very very well

A win against OI at Chelsworth is worth 2 to most teams

Great effort max...does this chart take into account the loss of marty pask for olympic duties? Could be a factor.
 
Can anyone at Old Xavs let me know how Josh Douglas is going at the club this season?

Is that the same bloke the ammo's emmbarrassingly left out of the u19 rep side. I noticed in the paper he was best for xavs on the weekend. Would not suprise if he ended up on an afl list next year either through the draft or being rookied after speaking to a few people at yesterdays TAC championships.

Why was it embarrassing?
Was he nominated by his club in the first place?
Was he cut for the final 24?

My tips:

STBMT
Collegians
Old Trinity
Uni Blacks
Old Brighton
 
StBedes vs OX - real keen on this one, should be a cracking game
OS vs Coll - must get up at home & push for double chance
OT vs OI - get this and they stay in A Grade
Uni Blues vs Uni Blacks - offering no favours, must want it more
DeLa vs Old Brighton - with all respect to DeLa club, OB must use this as a percentage booster - if over 15 goals they will be in the 4 at 5pm Saturday going on my tips.

Interested in other posters thoughts on Old Brighton (Harps??) -
have they performed to last year & pre-season expectations or gone slightly backwards?. Do they have the resources to get them into finals and perform?.

On what I saw against St Bedes a couple of weeks back, the answer is no. I know they have been missing a few more than handy players of late, but then they aren't Robinson Crusoe there. The things that disappointed me most with them was the ordinary skill level, and the reliance on a handful of guys to get the job done.

They could lift, no doubts about it, but their form has been far too patchy, particularly when put against the top 4. So my call is that they are going to finish 5th or 6th depending on what the Hoers do from here.
