C Section Amateur Football

[Supa Frank]

Right oh lads. Give us your c section team of the year so far:

Mine:
B: Robbins(orm) L.Wintle(SBMT) T.Brady(NOBS)
HB: Lowerson(OC) Davis(FITZ) Smyth(Mon)
C: Lewski(Ajax) P.Sullivan(Park) Tyquin(SBMT)
HF: S.Hecker(Park) Gregory(Mon) Boundy(OP)
F: Sleep (NOBS) Loats(OC) MacGeorge(Park)
R: Browne(Hamp) Miller(Orm) Anstey(SBMT)
Bench: Cahill(Fitz) Groves(SBMT) Bloom(Ajax)

Tommy,

You should do a little more homework and not pick just the blokes with big Reps. Sleep couldn't get a kick in a stampede, MacGeorge has only been in the best once for his Club and is older than my Dad, whilst D.Kelly (whoever he is) & Brother Sullivan has featured 6 times for Parkdale. Ritternman would feel upset @ Ajax as his form at face value seems as good as Lewski's and Bloom is a cat. Smyth from Monash again isn't featuring even close enough in the best and is yet to find his 2005 form so again I think you may have just picked him on Rep and not form as there are 5 or more players at Monash who are going better. Lowerson (OC) please see above about Smyth.

Miller in the state game was not that convincing (got caught with the footy to much) and there are a number of his teammates going better.

Only one Wintle is interesting seeing they play for the team that is 8 straight and they always feature heavily in SBMT wins.

Sorry to rain on your Parade Tommy, but think before you right the same old names in the C grade team of the year.

Frank, "Miller in the state game was not that convincing (got caught with the footy to much" given he was in the state team, would that not make him a monty for the team of the year thus far ? Dont rate the state selection criteria ? Just because a team has won 8 straight does not gtee selection. Based on that, if they go undefeated, that would mean the entire SBMT team would make Team of the Year ?

Supa Frank as usual you have no idea.Macgeorge may be old but has been best on ground probably 4 games this year.Darren Kelly trained with the rep side but didnt make the cut and is one of the tougest and fittest blokes going around.Paul Sullivan is one of the most courageous players in the VAFA and most skilful and has been in Parkys beat numerous times this year despite copping a heavy tag each week.Time you did your homework supa or we will have to put you with RED ROY.

 

[Scribe]

Red Roy, I think you'd better listen to Scribe here, my sources tell me that Scribe is battling to hold his place in the Old Trinity McGoo's and has been dropped to the Club XVIII several times only to win a Saturday morning reprieve due to late withdrawals on each occasion.

Time to start putting in Scribe.

SMG,

Sadly, twice dumped, one reprieve only - check out last week's results from the 143 point win over Old Geelong. Life's tough when you're a 31 year-old warhorse. A grade is a young man's game...apparently.....no one's told Rambo that yet!!

Anyhoo, enough about me, let's talk about C grade this week.

Apparently Boundy's injury is less serious than first thought, which is good news for Parade, but they're still likely to be without him for a couple of matches.

It looms as the most intriguing round thus far with several clubs hitting back last week and keeping things extremely tight from 2nd all the way down. I reckon the best chance of another upset is NOBSPC away over Monash (though I have tipped the home side). The Tigers should account for a sliding Ormond and the other three will be a coin toss in it.

Fortunately SMG, I've earnt a recall myself and Trinity are playing Melburnians at HQ on Sunday. If I can get a leave pass from the missus, I'm intending to do a rotation from Hampton to Ormond, and possibly out to Monash as well.

Best of luck everyone - hope to see some of you dominating tomorrow.

[Mobbs]

...start listening a little more to the Mobbenfurher who knows his footy....excellent tipping MBF with 5 from 5.

Yay! Utter fluke, though - your confidence in my football knowledge is not really warranted! I just barrack.

Be that as it may, I might as well try to sound cocky :
Hampton Rovers 9.11.65 wdb Reds 14.8.92 - I feel the Reds will develop a wood over the Rovers, and thump them with it
Ormond 11.11.77 def SBMT 9.9.63 - This is the one. I need SBMT to fracture, and I must have them fracture now. Tigers will be in the Gunnsights.
Monash Blues 17.11.113 def NOBSPC 8.12.60 - NOBS to be reduced to baked beans & spaghetti by the Blues
Old Paradians 7.14.56 wdb Parkdale Vultures 12.10.82 - name change effective 24/6 4.45pm to Old & Slow Paradians, courtesy of some vulture mulcher culture.
Old Camberwell 20.15.135 def AJAX 11.8.74 - out on a limb here; 'cause I reckon OC can wipe the floor with AJAX

(As you can see, I'm just trying to get most of the clubs above the Reds on the ladder, to lose. No point trying to fool anyone!)

After these results, the ladder will then present the following :
StBMT - 8/1
Monash - 6/3
AJAX - 5/4
Reds - 5/4
Ormond - 5/4
OC - 4/5
Parkdale - 4/5
Hampton - 3/6
Parade - 3/6
NOBS - 2/7

Yes. This will all happen.

MBF...just when I was starting to think you do know your stuff....come on give us your real thoughts.

Winners this week will be:

Rovers over the Reds...Reds away not a good record this year and have not been to Roverland before...upset brewing

Tigers over the Monds...will be a good one at the Gunn

NOBS over Monash...you heard it here first

Parade over Vultures...PV didn't travel well to Garvey last year...Boundy out may save them though

Ajax over OC....unless OC get physical.

Well no chance Mr Clay will be praising you this week, I agree with all your tip except the one where you were silly.
And to Super Frank, I would not take much into it that Macca has not been in the best players, He has alot of input into who is named in the best and likes to list others before himself.

 

[Local Boy]

MacGeorge has only been in the best once for his Club and is older than my Dad

Thats a couple of times Supa Frank has had a go at Macca must have issues and who cares how old he is.

 

[Richard Clay Torpedoes]

Due to work committments I can't get to see any C Section action this week but will be in contact with someone at the matches at the Gunn and will attempt to post some progress scores throughout the afternoon...appreciate it if anyone else can do the same from other matches tomorrow...

 

[Supa Frank]

Supa Frank as usual you have no idea.Macgeorge may be old but has been best on ground probably 4 games this year.Darren Kelly trained with the rep side but didnt make the cut and is one of the tougest and fittest blokes going around.Paul Sullivan is one of the most courageous players in the VAFA and most skilful and has been in Parkys beat numerous times this year despite copping a heavy tag each week.Time you did your homework supa or we will have to put you with RED ROY.

If you could read FIEMJO, I was saying that D Kelly should be in the side in front of Macgeorge and same with the other Sullivan. Macgeorge has not had four best on grounds and seeing they have only won three games, your telling me he was best on ground in a loss. Maybe it was the against Ormond when they lost by 95 point.

LB,
I have know issues with Macca, have actually met him on a couple of occasions drinking with some of my OM team mates of mine, he seem like a good fella. Has plenty of football ability don't get me wrong, but his best is past him surely!!

 

[FIEMJO]

Macgeorge has not had four best on grounds [/quote]

For Parkdale has been best probably 4 times and since I play alongside him I thionk I would know.He is past his best but is still one of the most damaging players in c grade.

cheers

FIEMJO, Did you play with the club before Macca joined?

Why would it matter and who cares !

I take it the answer is no, just wondering if you were someone I knew as I Played before. Can not remember anyone grumpy when I played, like you.

 

[Bigfootyfan]

Lets end a painful discussion. Macca has been an out and out champion for the Vultures and the Tigers over the years. But his age is against him. He is not in the best 22 consistently for c grade. On his day he is but overall no.

 

[Alphonse]

The nobbers had a fantastic victory over Monash today, great effort considering the team was without its best player Tommy Roberts and the Joyce brothers (Simon, Damien and Phil). Thats two in a row now, the club which seem destined for the drop is fighting back. Foolish people in C section write them off, this is one proud institution and we dont go down to clubs like Monash (rubbish uni, rubbish club). Old Melbourne town will be painted purple green and white tonight, finals are back on the agenda.

Out they come, out they come, out they come to play........

The Nobbers are indeed back Alphonse, fantastic to get your support from the Northern Hemisphere. Whilst they wont be getting ahead of themselves, there is a much better feel around the club this year, and I watched the unders today and they hade some likely types, were very stiff to go down to Therry (terrible umpiring decisions at the death). A club with a big history in A grade wont rollover that easy, get on board NOBSPC.

 

[Cameo King]

Yes 'Phonse and Homer tis exciting times at the Gillon as we begin the trip to safety and rebuilding our proud club. The simple fact is we're too good a club to double drop. Many more wins are required this year to ensure this, but have no fear VAFA fans, as the purple, white, blue & green machine is starting to gather MOMENTUM. North are still a force in amateur football.

And to the buffoon who doesn't rate Sleep, you obviously haven't watched NOBs/COBs play. He's a class act, and if only your prose was half as good as him then we'd all be better off.

 

[Alphonse]

Looking at the C section ladder it seems to me apart from the boys from Brindesi, C section is very even. Maybe NOBSPC could charge into the the top four. Demotion to promotion, what a fairytale.

Scott Sleep is one of the great characters of VAFA football, quality player and a legend at the Gillon.

 

[Mobbs]

Close game out on Bluff Road with Hampton Rovers holding off the Reds in a nailbiter. After the Reds led by a meagre sum at the first change (about 4 pts), Hampton hit back early in the second to open a two goal lead which was basically never eroded until the last few minutes of the game. Half time it was a 2 goal game, and at 3/4 time it was somewhere around that mark as well. In the final stanza Hampton seemed to have ample opportunity to consolidate but frittered chances, while the Reds always threatened but seemed a little, umm, fumbly. A few minutes before the end of the match, a goal reduced the margin to 5 pts, and the Reds were trying to turn the tide. A superb chain of kicks and thrust forward looked to set up another easy shot at goal but a hampton defender read the pass perfectly and chipped in front. He would be the hero of the green and gold tonight, though they all contributed.

Absolute screamer by Ronke in the 3rd quarter brought applause from all quarters, but the subsequent shot at goal was smothered and a chance went begging.

Congrats Rovers, exciting game of footy, if not of the highest quality of play by either side today. Nice ground and facilities too! Well, I jumped and screamed in a stadium, full of Australians, but I stopped short of cheering the green and gold

 

[Bigfootyfan]

Again, the Tigers well below their best on Saturday but still came out winners. Red Roy its taken me 9 rounds to say it but your full of ****ing ****. The old saying put up or shut up. You do provide entertaiment with your shizenhousen talk on this thread but enough is enough. At the half way point of the year the Reds are a long way off. They are closer to D than B grade.

BFG i thought you were smarter than that. 9 rounds to work out Roy was a goose??? it took me about 2 seconds after his first post to understand that he a dumb sh**. No doubt Roy will now start saying that they had a few out and when they get their VFL players back they'll be a much better outfit!! Time for some new excuses Roy.

 

[GetSmart]

I'm with you Red. The reds will win the flag this year for sure. Next we will take B Section before the juggernaut wins 10 straight in A section. It is only a matter of time. Before we know it the Brisbane Lions will be struggling and they will want to merge with us and move back to Brunswick Street........ I'll just have another glass of red.....Red!........ Go Ritzroy, sorry Fitzzroy!........ Timmy..........great player!....... Does he play for us?......sorrry, ......of course.......... Go Redders!........Go Franko!..........Brunswick Street Fiztroy........ Jezza......lanko you beauty!..... Ah Red Boy........ we've got a good team.........we have?...... havent we Red!......... Please keep telling me. I believe you.

Red Boy, .........Please tell me it can't be true Red. My doctor is telling me that the Reds are no good and that the rovers actually beat us!........ It can't be true, surely. That we are no good.........We couldn't beat the rovers..........No I don't believe that we could be that bad.......That the lowly rovers could beat the mighty reds.......It must be a misprint or something.........Blow it, I'm going to have another Red, Red Boy and drown my sorrows. As for those Tigerssss. Their not that gooooood either are they Red Boy..........Remember Red, a Red will be beat a Tiger any day!...... I'll drink to that!....... Gee this jackets getting tighter.............Nurse can you loosen the straps at the back.......

 

[ITSMYNAME]

I travelled to the Gunn yesterday to see how the team with the worst colours, not only in the comp, but most possibly in the world, would go against St Bedes. Turned out to be a close one when ormond could have snatched it. I think they will get a lot of heart out of that. Thats what i thought before i heard all the outs the tigers had from the 1's and 2's.. I think if the tigers were full strength yesterday the only thing ormond would have taken out of the game was that is was nice weather. Tyqiun agian dominent, i think they were calling him SURLEY..interesting... and for the monds i thought the big fella connelly dominated the last quarter and bought them back into it with first use in the middle, although he woud not kick the ball he refused to do so but it worked well with his teammates feeding of him.....thats all from me, except to say.....what is with the grass at the gunn? massive amounts of grass disease it seems, you gotta get on that.
