De La should put up a good fight down at Brighton this week, have a sound record but the confidence of the OB could just win out.

Get to the ground if your in the area!!!

De La in twos by 5 goals.

De La will be an outside chance if there is no wind. If the wind's blowing (like it does 90% of the time), no one plays it better than OB and i don't think De La can win.
 
My tips for this week, going for some smokies to catch up a bit

OB
OS
COll
OI
Bernies at home

How deep does the Xavs list run. No Ockleshaw or Graham today, but i saw 5-6 guys i hadn't seen last year. Some new massive ruckman, Howard, 15, 27, Tehan and a few others. Looked young and quick, with great biggies like McCarthy, Lynch and Handley. Only saw first half but they looked awesome. Ivanhoe looked crap. Relegation material for me unless they were missing a few.

missing quite a few... butler, weddle, stevens & baldwin... first half destroyed but second very much even with Xavs winning the half 6.9 to 6.6...

hardly relegation material especially with the likes of OH, OT and OS however the latter always seems to find something when in relegation danger.
 
Round 5 Results
Chelsworthgale - 3
Frederik Kanoute - 4
Manni & Ken - 4
Penski - 4
OC37 - 3
Slay Master G - 3
Holding - 2
Joe Dirt - 3
Brianspeaking - 4

Ladder after Round 5
Slay Master G - 4+3+5+2+3 =17
Chelsworthgale - 2+5+1+4+3 =15
Penski - 2+3+3+3+4 =15
Brianspeaking - 3+3+2+2+4 =14
Joe Dirt - 2+4+2+3+3 =14
Manni & Ken - 2+1+3+4+4 =14
OC37 - 2+4+3+2+3 =14
Frederik Kanoute - 2+1+1+4+4 =12
Holding - 3+1+2+3+2 =11

Note: OB & DLS drew, hence why all the 4's weren't 5's.

OI like many seem to be very up and down, they have a quality 14-16 players but the last 4-5 seem to be a little weak

My tipping is not getting any better, no more smokies for me. OS seemed to have Uni covered for 90% of the day just let it all slip at the end so i was close but OI were never in it from all reports.
 
Apparently there is a bit of joy in the twos at xavs as well. Pasceri, Rush, Mcdonnell, and a host of last years U19 grand final side? We all know though that June and July can be a real test. I'll reserve judgement until after the break. Interested to see the following quote on the OB site. " We're still on top of the ladder ahead of old xavs" What does this mean? a) v happy with themselves b) terrified of what's coming c) all of the above
 
I always thought over the years that the June-July period can upset the ladder in A section (and other sections as well), because of the wet grounds and also some of the key players from the top clubs are unavaliable due to rep footy commitments. So, we'll see what happens come August.

we have been in drought for 10 years and the rep footy is played on footy free weekends like the bye and the queens birthday...

I reckon it is more we pass the half way mark and clubs know what to expect of each of the oppositions... ie: club coming up has played everyone and they no what to expect of the higher grade etc. OR the 8 remaining clubs from the year before suss out the new recruits etc and know how to deal with them and so on...
 
Agree with the gale, lets what the comp looks like after 8-9 rounds.

Considering that De La have not been travelling that well of late Brighton should have easily beaten them but through away a match winning lead at 3/4 time.

Who are people tipping to make the drop besides OH???

My suggestion is that OS might be heading to B for the first time in a number of years
