By the looks of the scores Yarra could have been 10 goals up at half time except for poor kicking

40 scoring shots is a pretty convincing effort, although, as garvey train says OP had a lot out. good tune up for YV though
 
Feel like a lot of team for many weeks have been saying “players out” anyone else get this feeling? Surely you want your best players out on the park, or are they injured. Coaches playing tricks? Who knows.

Nobody at this level of footy rests players. If there still out there injured.

Parade gone.
Winner of WF vs YV to play UHS in the grand final I think.

Agreed, would seem odd to rest healthy players 2 weeks out from finals. (Injuries are a different story) I doubt any team would have their absolute no.1 side available this time of year, due to injury.

Hearing Eltham Collegians are looking at a move to NFL. Either that or bust.

Yeah I heard it last weekend also, they want to move to northern footy league to attract more locals and for the boys to have a few beers at the game (which the Ammos don't allow!! Also the college attracts high achieving non sports loving kiddies..plus a little cash to splash on players would help..

We've seen this fail over and over. Westborne is back, parkside. That's just in the last few years. Beer income isn't a magic silver bullet

not saying the income from the bar is the answer, most blokes bring their own as they are tight! more so saying that for some blokes its good to sit back have a few beers and watch the footy inside the warmth of the clubrooms...
also knowing that eltham boys dont want to have to travel across town as much

Garvey, having played the other 3 finalists in the last 3 weeks was there 1 side in particular that you found stood above the other two?

Having seen all 4 top teams on several occasions this year I would say Parade have definitely been the best team.
To win that many games in a row and beat each team convincingly, apart from the Friars, you have to be pretty good. However, injuries may be about to dismantle all their good work.
UHS are clearly the form team over the past 6 weeks and are 5-6 goals better than the other 2.

Parade vs UHS your pick for the GF then?
 
I have watched every team very closely and seen Parade twice and they are the weakest in the 4 by a street.

I would say the opposite. For Rupertswood, Bentleigh, Werribee Districts and Banyule it has been an overwhelming success. Besides Parkside, which teams have actually failed in their move out of the VAFA

They certainly are at the moment but lets see them in a few weeks time when they have about 8 changes from last Saturday.

Gents, I was at Yarra Parade game Saturday and saw Jeffrey in moon boot, therefore most likely end of his season...spoke with CK also and he was out with hammy...

Retired, not sure what you've been smokin mate, tend to agree with you TF, having umpired all 4 sides quite a bit over the past 2-3 years, I would rate them as follows...UNi High, Parade, Yarra & Friars. was there saturday and parade lost nothing by resting players that have niggles...you put Boundy, Kandalakis bros, Kappos, Jeffrey and there is fair bit of grunt back in it...my mates at yarra have Young to come back in which sees them at full compliment, friars have full forward to come back in, just cant see them matching with full strength sides

I’m pretty sure harbeck was out of Yarra Valleys side as well. He’s kicked 51 goals in 11 games so he could add value to them.
