Slappa Mathews, second in a row, from Bull Innes at Somerset I am led to believe, good effort seeing as he missed the first four games and has been playing with injuries most of the year.Not very often our boys beat South in both games although South did have a few out.Good to see both Towna and Bricka contribute in their milestone games, give the Roos a bit of momentum going in to the finals having beaten a side above them.Ridgley hitting their straps this time if the year which is ominous for the other 4 teams.Yolla will be hard to beat this week v Sth and Somerset and Natone are one all after winning their games at home so a neutral venue will be interesting.Well done to Beauy and his Reserves side up the hill, a season undefeated is one not to be scoffed at and also Ridgley in the ones to dropone game and at a hard ground by a small margin is exceptional as well
Would not be a bad side for someone to take on next year, they have young guys with plenty of leg speed although they come up against the rampaging Saints by the looks of it at the weekend, anyone know how many points Willy kicked on top of the 14, I bet the DFA B and F will come from Ridgley as well as the leading goalkicker and he missed a couple of games as well, Mous e mus have been in the midfield on Saturday ?Being abit harsh on Frenchy there I think Darwinasaurus. Since Frenchy has been on board the Robins actually haven't been to bad, They have come along way from being beaten by 200+ on a week to week basis. Atleast now they are competative. And from what I've heard he done a pretty good job in the state gig. You know you dont just get those positions, you've got to know abit about your footy before the'll give you a state gig. Give credit where it's due. Goodluck to Craig and all the best for the future
Rowdy can add this to the one he won at Ridgley, well done Rowdy, poor boxer though !The yolla best and fairest was won by Nathan Rowdy Riley and second was Jayde Nash. Good effort by Rowdy considering he missed 3 or 4 games. I havent heard who won the reserves though.
Somerset had their two best midfielders out in Bratden Field and Mark Innes while I am not one hundred percent sure on South, thay had at least Dustin Crawford, Flipper Gilham, their big ruckman Clarky, Bossa Bakes, to name but a few.The boys can run the grog off Sunday from Sat night, just like having a couple on Friday night anyway

Congratulations to the young fella- a best and fairest is nothing to sneeze at.
Imagine if they were ruled ineligible for the B&F at club level when suspended( the same as the assoc is) then there would be no-one left to win it out there at heybridge
willy had the kicking boots on saturday mooch...kicked 14 straight...mouse went off before half time after rolling his ankle..the same 1 he done in the combined game...plus he probally shoulnt of played anyway after being kicked in the head by a cow on thursday
I am still out here whisky17,have been keeping a low profile the past month or so as duffy asked me not to talk us up too much
As for how do i think we will fare over the coming weeks, we will have to improve on our efforts from the past two games to get over somerset this sunday in the ones, the twos have been the trend setter in the seconds all year, and if they regain a couple back from injury/seniors then there wont be much between us and a pennant at years end.
Ive got a feeling that sundays elimination final is going to be a very close affair, the boys have to regain their early season confidence-from the coach down, if this happens then the mighty maggies will prove to be a handfull over the next four weeks..
Great effort then by Willy, sometimes the forwards cop it for different stuff but you still have to catch em and kick em, I reckon the cow must have a broken foot after hitting that hard looking noggin !
Will the committee be the same for next year , and if so, would the Club have some of these suspended players back as it does not set a great standard for the culture and the team has been competitive most times at varying stages throughout the year but it appears to me from the outside especially the night gane against Somerset that discipline has been the major problem and its not fair on the Jack Rileys and Freezer DevRies that play good footy wothout mouthing off at the opposition and the umpires , just an opinion for the sake of the Cuoprona FC and the comp as a wholeCanny was in fact not suspended this year Cupronas suspensions have been as follows
S Braslin 3 weeks
C Pattie 2 weeks
D Wall 2 weeks
J Townsend 1 week
C Harris 10 weeks
J Payne 8 weeks
J Bloom 4 weeks
Thats only 7 players and out of the 7 only 2 were serious reports it just seems the tribunal has a thing against the dogs and yes it was a terrible year and hopefully if they get a decent committee out there at Heybridge they might go somewhere in the future
Anyone got any heads up on the DFA B and F as it would be interesting to see who has had good seasons for their respective clubs from players and supporters on this mighty forum bearing in mind there will be plenty of oos and ars at the count when the umps give their version of events !
I reckon young max fisher from natone will go very close to bringin home the cheddes has had a very good year. But as for go dogs saying there was only 2 serious reports come on mate get your head out of your ass they had 7 players rubbed out when more then half the clubs didn't have a single report let alone a suspension from both teams. You'd piss on someones back and tell em it was rainin you would.
