How many kids do you think acually live in Calivil? I'm sure that there's not any kids who want to play missing out on a game. Good on them for being able to field a side.

Im with you on this Joe. The under 17's competition in not just our league but in Heathcote as well is seriously under the pump. With most of the young fella's going to school in between 5 secondary schools the pressure is put put on by mates to play with mates. You only have to look at the BJFL and there seem to be 5 new teams every year.
Serp haven't played a full side for 3 years now, Newbridge played with 18 on the weekend in a final, Inglewood have been lucky to field a side at all but good on them for not letting anyone down and playing all year. Even if it meant "borrowing" players from the opposition.
The issue shouldn't be how many locals are playing in the side but how many kids are playing at all

Yeah you are right in Calivil's U/17's there is only 7 local kids playin but lets see in Serp's 2's side there is all of........ WOW a whopping 5 locals.
And if you really wanna compare the 2 clubs in the last home and away round both clubs played, Serp had 5 locals in the 1's, 6 in the 2's and 7 in the 3rd's, where as Calivil had 14 in the 1's, 11 in the 2's and 7 in the 3rd's so sorry sunshine maybe you should think before you type
I'm not from Serp? But good on them. They are a respectable club, however I agree you must give Calivil credit for their locals in their Seniors and Reserves thats an excellent effort.

Ant is a champion player, we played them few wweks ago, and news came out that he broke his arm from our game? Any news on that?

The goal squares will definitely be cleaned up before Sunday. Not an easy or enjoyable task.
D-mac told ycw that he wanted to do the job again but committee told him they were advertising the job. He said that he would put in for it but then thought if nobody applied they would come back to him and he was not going to be nobody's fall back, so he told ycw that was not interested in doing the job and also told them he would not play there next year!!!

Ah i don't think that is true, because we played them 3 or so weeks ago and he got best on. And I saw him yesterday and there wasnt anything wrong with him.

I heard today that Andy Grant is keen to coach YC??? Apparently doesnt care if he coaches against his old man. Interesting that Steve Cox is planning on stealing a 2's flag for Serp, as he might be the new coach of huntly for 2008!!! Talk is its him or Buster Alf.
Heard that Webb will be going back to Mount Pleasant. Insiders at YCW say that Webb is the man for the coaching job next year. Problem is he doesn't like it there and his close mates are the same. Kingdom and alford back to North and Webb to Mounts. Club also unhappy with Loring and expect him to be looking for greener pastures next year.
