Great summary take a bounce.I went to the Metro vs Country match yesterday because I had a work party that night in St Kilda and needed a few hours to fill my day.
Ok so i thought the EDFL boys did good, but three of them in particular stood out Hitch, Podhajski and Rayner.
Hitch- fantastic hard at it midfielder that can also play deep in the backline. Great skills and understands the game better than most. Worked hard from the start of the game until the end, he should be happy with his game
Podhajski- surprised me the most out of everyone, got at least 20 disposals (with nearly all effective) playing off the half back line and managed to keep his man goaless throughout the game. Also is fantastic and intercept marking with his strong hands.
Rayner- he played midfield most of his game which surprised me initially considered the amount of smaller players they had, but it worked out well with his big strong body, got a lot of it with I'd say 15-20 disposals. Great game by Rayner.
Caluzzi just missed out on being in the best 3 as I thought he was being played out of position playing deep backline. Balta did very little with glimpses of skill. Mo was disappointing but for right reasons, his knee is still playing up. Was that Darren Walters I saw playing??? Also Hanna, played great, can take big strong marks especially in the first quarter.
Oh absolutely I no its irrelevant to today's game. But I thought it was just important to see how good these contests have been over the yearsCanplaythisguy it will be interesting to see who ends up winning the gf. So far EDS have been smashed with injuries and Abers are not far behind them. Luckily for keilor they have escaped too many long term injuries. I don't believe what has happened over the past 5 years is overly relevant with I do like your research. In my opinion if all sides had a full side to pick from(which is unrealistic) I would have EDS v Abers in gf with EDS prevailing in a tight one.
If the post are correct about metro v country game we may be missing quite a few stars for the national championships in June(I believe).
Club7 where do you find the team sheets. I did not think this would be available?
Sounds like a great game.
Any reason for the spitting incident(not that anything could justify a player spitting at anyone).
Football 1993. It seems west meadows got a strong win against cragieburn. Not sure if cragieburn were cocky as they got blown out in the first quarter. Or if west meadows truly outclassed them. Anybody got some info? In abers v wc, I didn't see Daniel Hannah or Mitch but not entirely sure on others. I'd be happy to give reviews on games I make it too so be ready to continue hearing from me in the future.
Wouldn't say there is a huge difference if westy could beat craigieburn, I'm sure there are others in div 2 that could do the same.Greenvale 1st up winners in Div 2........there must be a huge difference between Div 1 and Div 2?
Evans actually played in the west coburg game so not sure if he tried out or not?i went to watch the U15 trials yesterday so didn't watch any local footy as was soaked!!! thought all the EDFL boys did well in difficult conditions. Bytel didn't play (due to concussion previous week?). Surprised to see the list released today and not see more EDFL boys in it (Hazik & Evans particularly). Congratulations to Bytel, West & Browning on making the team.
