I know you mean and can truly understand after 5yrs down the bottom (At Central land), it does feel good to get some success.
You know I have never known BC to be arrogant though. Great bunch of blokes and I rekon the right amount of confidence. Trouble is, few clubs have really been where we have and had the same people stick around through the crap and come out on the other side doing well. You will get bagged by those types who have never been through the hard times, or if they have they have jumped off mid-stream and gone somewhere else. Enjoy the success you get - its deserved!
Yes Lakey11 it sucks being down the bottom and trodded on. The two wins so far this year have been a good start. We have worked hard to turn it around on and off the field. So far so good. We look forward to more success this year, and personally, I really don't give a sh*t what people say about MY club.
People can say or write want they want. All I will concentrate on is running the club to best of my abilities.
Thanks for the kind words.
huru
Hope you're not going to show up my woeful tipping. Saw you hunting Mokbel at the Magistrates Wed am, but you were too busy to grab your attention

No one has said one bad thing about your club!! Get over it!!
Its getting a bit agro on here boys! Must mean there's a bit of competition around. Fantastic. But who will knock WB off the unbeaten list? It would be a big feat for them to pull off an unbeaten season, and it must be in the back of their minds.... but they just need one poor game!
You don't have a brain. I am not going to bother. I don't care...
I am sick of it.

If you don't care, why are you sick of it?
I rekon BigWaz, in this comp almost every game is a danger game. From what I have seen so far this year, the comp has really tightened up to the point that its no longer a top 3, middle 7 and bottom 2. Perhaps at the moment its a top 1, and the rest.....however being fair, WB have played exceptionally well but I am sure they would agree, its a bloody long season and a couple of key injuries at the wrong time, or a few of the wrong heads down against the wrong team and the streak comes to an end. If they do go undefeated, it will be an outstanding effort and obviously deserved. Should also make the VAFA re-visit the promotion / relegation issues as well.
Another good thing this year is that the Turtles are going great in D3 (Good honest, no bullsh!t club) and StFairy's / Sleezings (Sporn of the Devil!!) are second last with one win. Nice to know selling your soul to the Devil works.............F*&%ers!

How?
It would be Ironic if Eltham were in D2 next year and St Marys (forget the Salesians name) were back in D3...
I went trawling for dirt on the West Brunswick website, and didn't find any spruiking about going undefeated... also didn't see a forum. Maybe the Cobras web developer could take a few pointers!?
WB are going well to be 6-zip, but I seriously doubt they will remain undefeated. It doesn't even take one or two blokes to have stinkers - at this level a few bad bounces, an opposition that has got nothing to lose and a lack of motivation in general can cost you the four points. SFX will give them a shake up if they aren't beaten before then. And Kew aren't that easy to beat at their ground...
What are you suggesting re: promotion/relegation? Should the VAFA assess each team and decide whether they will be any good or not the next year, and then decide? I reckon there needs to be hard and fast rules. Top 2, bottom 2. Simple, no fuss and fair.
I rekon only one team should be promoted or relegated at any time. With the inequities of the draw, (And the poor way it is designed!) and the way clubs continually roller-coaster (Hawthorn / USH etc etc) it seems pointless to send a runners up. Personally, I would only do it every 2 years based on the club that has performed the best over that time. At least at D4 to D2 level. Will make the "bottom" comps more even and competitive. Just my opinion.

I remember reading this forum last year and everyone was talking up both St Mary's and Eltham. Uni High flew under the radar without much fanfair and took the flag. Who are this year's Uni High?

the x men are having there mid year ball next week.cheap cocktails,gourmet finger food,beer ,wine and spirits.what more could you want.should be a cracker night
In my two years of playing D4 - the premiers have been Powerhouse and UHS. Both times - they weren't the flashy type that beat the bottom sides by 25 goals - instead - they were solid, disciplined and just kept winning. (UHS went 17-1 from memory - so not under the radar - they just weren't a huge scoring sort of team with big names).
WB are similar to UHS and Powerhouse. Disciplined footy, strong backline and plenty of big blokes. I haven't played against Kew as of yet - but WB are certainly far better than any other team we've played.
