Ah fair enough then.
Re: AFLQ Premier Division
Geez there is a lot of whingeing about the draw from some at Lemke rd....banking up the hard luck stories already!!.. The draw is fair enough as with 11 teams and byes it was always going to be uneven, not sure what the league was sposed to do?!?. Grange finished 7th last year (4th bottom!) and got beaten by Mayne in the last round in both reserves and seniors, so fairly reasonable to expect that they wouldn't get the same draw as the team that nearly won the senior GF and won the reserves!!

Re: AFLQ Premier Division
Not whingeing Travolta, and not preparing an excuse for the hawks either! Just pointing out a fact. Think that playing against better sides more often might hold them in good shape come finals if they can hold on to double chance. Plus seeing the good sides twice might be an advantage knowing what to expect etc.
Are you suggesting Grange "tanked" last game to ensure easier draw? lol
Hopefully next year the league goes back to 10 teams and everyone can play twice.

Re: AFLQ Premier Division
haha...tanking - interesting concept!! Could only happen if the club involved knew how the draw was worked out...couldn't happen ....could it??
But your point is valid about the draw and how much better a ten team comp would be. I think all clubs except one would agree!!

Re: AFLQ Premier Division
How do you crystal ball Sweetie who is going to be decent and who is not in this comp?? The luck of the draw is irrelevant and all clubs have swings and roundabouts. If its good enough for the best comp in Australia, then I reckon it is good enough for this one.

Re: AFLQ Premier Division
Strange post and even stranger spelling.Top effort by both sides in appalling conditions.A shame there weren`t more people there to witness a good hard fought local derby.
Re: AFLQ Premier Division
What's wrong with his spelling? Especially when you use ` instead of ' in weren't.
Re: AFLQ Premier Division
Can`t see where you are correcting me Tiger.My use of weren`t instead of were not is correct punctuation in the English language.However knowing you are from Mayne who continue to shine in the best dressed department,I`m probably out of my league with regard to who`s the better educated.Maybe the brains of the Mayne tigers are superior to the Noosa tigers.Not much doubt though on who has the bigger heart!

Re: AFLQ Premier Division
There must be trouble in paradise Noosa boy. Your only come back is to do with education. I never knew spelling helped you get the footy.
Is that why your coach ends every sentence with OK?
Cos he can spell it.

Re: AFLQ Premier Division
Don't know what our clubs have anything to do with this argument, just cheap shotting someone by trashing their club,. It was a dig at you not Noosa, who are no doubt are a great club, full of intelligent people. Just come on here and make your point, instead of criticising someone's spelling,just maybe not everyone is intelligent like you.
Re: AFLQ Premier Division
This is a footy forum agree,but old rooster is on here doing nothing but bagging my club and senior coach so thought i`d point out the obvious.I`m not here to sling cheap shots at clubs but if you want to side with old rooster,be carefull because your club is in a very vulnerable position for cheap shots and most posts regarding it have been respectfull thus far.
Re: AFLQ Premier Division
Ooh,bit touchy there old rooster.I would like to see a coach motive their players.Not sure about Fletchs spelling but pretty sure he could find the footy.Just surprised by your original post stressing that Maroochys coach was a better coach cause he could motive his players,whatever that means.Noosa are motivated,just talk to the players.As i said earlier roos put in a great effort which often happens in rivalry games regardless of ladder position.The fletch thing is really wearing thin old rooster,especially as tigers keep winning.I`d be keeping quiet and anonymous.
Re: AFLQ Premier Division
No it's not, it's just your small minded attitude. Be a Man and trash me personally not my club,the club I follow has nothing to do with this argument. You are the one who is questioning ones intelligence to insult, yes, question his opinion but do it with some class.

Re: AFLQ Premier Division
I really don't know what your on about Noosa Boy. Everything I said you have either agreed with or got defensive about it. Therefore it must be ringing true. You must be another one of those armchair critics that can see only through one eye. You have probably never even played the game. Too busy reading books then sunbaking on the Noosa beach.
Like others on this fourm I have only stated my opinion on what I have seen and heard. If it upsets you bad luck, I don't care how thin it wearing. Looking back at some previous posts some people seem to hold the same opinion as me and they are from your club.
Good luck in the finials I hope your team of champions can do it again. Even though I think they will get out coached and played come September. IMO
Ps can you spell check this for me?

Re: AFLQ Premier Division
Always seems to be plenty of bickering on this board, not sure if its healthy banter between members of local rivalries or not, but... ive got a question that could lead to some discussion.
What does Coolangatta have to do to move from the bottom of the ladder. They've been there for an unhealthy period of time now, Ive been told that in the past (im talking early '00s, 90s... maybe one for some of the older blokes?) they were a powerhouse.
From what you guys have seen what areas on field or off field do they need to improve in?
Feel free to incorporate the state of other clubs and how they have improved in the past... whether it be bringing through youngsters from the junior ranks, increased funding or just the good timing of accumulating some decent footballers.

Re: AFLQ Premier Division
From what i have noticed Cooly have been affected by the major State league teams particually Southport whereby their top young players and players in their prime have ended up.They were indeed a powerhouse in the Brett Andrews and Mark roberts coached days having played in 4 GFs in a row from 2000-2003 winning 2.Within a matter of 2 or 3 years they lost the Lynch boys,Hawkins and another ex state player whose name escapes me to Southport which really hurt them.And whilst Smith and hawkins have carried them over the past few years,they are really young and developing.The PNG boys are a breath of fresh air to watch so hopefully on the right track.A lack of trade work on the Goldy wouldn`t make recruiting any easier either at present.
Re: AFLQ Premier Division
Its between me and old rooster tiger.You probably butted in at the wrong time as we have an ongoing thing and i`m pretty sure i know him pretty well.Please do not tell me what to do,I am of very average intelligence so will not listen anyway.My football tip for 2011; Magpies v Noosa Grand final
Re: AFLQ Premier Division
played in 4 straight grand finals in the early part of last decade. played aspley in 2 of those and palmy in the other 2. they had a fair side in those 4 years

Re: AFLQ Premier Division
don't kid yourself, that is a cheapshod.
reading between the lines, what you are saying here is that Mayne Tigers are vulnerable to be cheap shotted, becuase they are inferior to Noosa Tigers.
Not sure how many state league flags noosa has won, or how many years they have been established, or how many AFL players have worn the colours of Noosa, or how many Mayne players have had to go to court for actions on the football field or infact how many players have actually played 150 games for Noosa.
Maybe you should be carefull NB, becuase from where I am looking maybe Noosa is vulnerable for cheap shots. Current success isn't always the measuring stick, especially when clubs have a history like Maynes.
