Yes 152 to 151, and he should get the statewide trophy as well (unless the bloke from the Bendigo League Weekes ? kicks 12 or something), but in any case it's a record that should stand for a long time.
Rushy vs. Murch, I reckon rushy should be keen to win this because if I were them facing Avenel is a better outcome than facing Murch, there was only a point seperating the two sides the last time they played, and although murch has improved a lot since Round 8, the smaller ground and the fact that murch rarely play well at rushy will just be enough to see them potentially face Avenel next week (although I hope like hell that I'm wrong or that this does happen and Nagambie produce the unexpected).
Avenel should kock off Nagambie for the simple reason that Nagambie have nothing to play for, and Avenel it's a case of all or nothing, they like Murch have had some good results, some heartbreakers as well (losing to a point against Murch at home after leading all day would have to be the main one), and the big loss to Merrigum.
Merrigum I think will beat Lancaster for the first time in a long time to finish thier season at 9-9, which is a magnificent effort all things considered (but maybe if they got those 3 blokes from HM DHURRINGILE a bit earlier, it may have been different ?), and should set up a finals tilt for the doggies in 2013.
Longwood I think will do the double against Ardmona by inflicting the Bushcats a winless season in the seniors and the Legs two's an oppotunity to sing the club song for the first time in 2012, and for some reason this is the game that ONEFM has decided to broadcast , you would think that the RUSHWORTH & MURCHISON game would be a better contest but I'm sure that Longwood will be good hosts to the radio crew.
Tallygaroopna should beat Girgarre to finish thier season 9-9, and wonder what if ?, but it'll be interesting to see what will transpire at Tally in the coming months.
Undera should beat Stanhope to prepare themselves for a tilt at Nagambie next week, as Undera go onto bigger things for 2012, Stanhope has 2013 to think about and I'm sure that this year will be but a blip on the radar for the club, as they prepare to be the kings of the KDFL jungle once more.
TO THOSE WHO ARE PLAYING THIER LAST GAMES THIS SEASON GOOD LUCK IN 2013, AND FOR THOSE LUCKY ENOUGH TO MAKE FINALS, THIS IS WHERE THE GOOD STUFF STARTS .
Good work all season Joey ..can I leave 2012 with this quote.
"Yes 152 to 151, and he should get the statewide trophy as well (unless the bloke from the Bendigo League Weekes ? kicks 12 or something), but in any case it's a record that should stand for a long time."
Might it not be as good as kicking a bag against Greater Western Dubbo Zoo in the really, really big league. So we introduce a KPI (Key Performance Indicator .. for the dumb shites !!) of dollar per goal kicked in community footy .. Whelan's performance at that KPI would be an extraordinary over-spend I reckon!! Enjoy the finals of the next four weeks boyos but VT have this flag in the bank!! Maybe the Nagas or Murch might keep it local. Cheers John Carrot
