Mernda awful the first 15 mins of the game and last 15 mins of the game, in between should have been(with all the play they had) 6-7 goals in front by 3/4 time, terrible kicking for goal and no pressure either,will be at the next game between these two sides should be more definitive contest

Mernda weren't awful, they were simply outclassed. Panton Hill rose to the occasion and they played better football. In other words... Panton Hill wanted it more, they were hungrier.

Mernda do seem however to play through No.9 all the time, and that is easy to be coached against, Mernda had a few players running down on their own, yet players just kicked it to No.9...

Rohan Davies, our captain. Had a good game, as did Reesy. Millsy was wasteful in the forward line but on another day would have had a bag.

Haydock was very good, his setting up goals from the backline was a joy to watch, and to see PH follow the set play on this was great to see,Mernda rely on their quickness whilst PH's aerial dominance was a tallying factor in the result.Mernda need to rotate their midfielders more frequently as well.

Yes Panton Hill just had too big bodies for us, and that helped them win. All in all though it was a cracking game of football, shame there had to be a loser.
 
Dean Haydock has obviously got the PH boys firing, was an old PE teacher of mine and a cracking bloke, good to here his spreading his vast footy knowledge in the lower divisions and i hope he has set it up so alot more like him do this.
Resa boys looked very solid on the weekend Watsonia very sound efforts for three quarters but just not enough legs.
Will be very interesting to see how results pan out with the weekend looking like its going to be very damp.

Panton Hill v St. Marys
Reservior v West Heidelberg
Watsonia v Parkside

Pretty easy round to tip. Althought an upset could be the case in the Watsonia/Parkside clash with Dallas King still rubbed out.
 
Panton Hill vs St Mary's The Redbacks announced themselves last week and should be able to handle the Saints here.
Reservoir vs West Heidelberg The Mustangs shouldn't have too many worries handling teh Hawks here.
Parkside vs Watsonia An interesting game. The Devils roughhouse tactics came unstuck last week and if tried again could see the Saints prevailing.
 
PANTON HILL Vs St Mary's - having watched Panton Hill last week they look very good at the moment but you could still flip a coin between them and Mernda as premiership favourites at the moment, though there is a VERY long way to go.

RESERVOIR V West Heidelberg - Reservoir easy.

PARKSIDE V Watsonia - Not writing off Watsonia though.

Nice quiet week for us with the bye, having said that I'd prefer us playing football... oh well.
 
Good game today at Pitcher Park.

Lots of fight from the boys but missed chances in the last quarter really cost us. Had more scoring shots but poor kicking is poor footy and we were penalised accordingly.

Already looking forward to next week.

On another note, Parkside's ground was awesome. Did it even rain there at all this week? :p Awesome surface.
 
Getting in early with the tips.

Watsonia v Panton Hill
Heid West v Parkside
St Marys v Mernda
 
Yep, all away teams this week. Cant see Burra getting up after Merndas loss last week, how has Lucci fitted into the side? But they will be fired up for sure. Parkside easily over West after the scare from Watsy who are much improved. Panton Hill should be able to keep the lid on over Watsy, but anything can happen. Question why are 38 and 35 not getting a game?

Considering they came close to knocking off last years Runners Up. I'd say absolutely.
 
Watsonia vs Panton Hill Can't see 'The Doc" letting the Redbacks be complacent in this one against the Saints.
West Heidelberg vs Parkside Should be tight early but expect the Devils to come out on top against the Hawks.
St Mary's vs Mernda Match of the Round and nice little test for both sides. Think the Demons wil prevail over the Sainters.
Reservoir - Bye
 
i see watsonia tried hard again today!!! good effort ladies.....
I have no idea why you seem to be so anti Watsonia, POTP, But I happened to watch the game yesterday, and thought they tried hard all day. Their last quarter would have given their supporters something to be happy about.

This anti-Watsonia attitude is driving me (and the rest of the punters who actually try to be constructive here) nuts.

I'm absolutely sure they'll give it a good go next week when they play us, I'm pleasantly surprised with their form early this year even though they are 1-3.

As for my mob, what an impressive victory, our away form has been absolutely tops so far and St Mary's are always a very hard opposition to play, so I'm rapt we got three wins from three.
 
Just ignore POTP fella's.

Tried hard yesterday but the bigger bodies from Panton Hill in the wet were too good. They were very impressive and think they'll be the big movers this year. (if they can keep key players fit). Another hard test away at Mernda next week but pretty sure a few of the boys are already keen to redeem themselves.
 
Yeah it was a tough game played in pretty miserable conditions, Matt Millett dislocated his right knee and broke his left ankle. Not sure how you do that....but he did it.
 
I don't know Matt, but wish him a speedy recovery, hopefully he has insurance to cover his loss from his employment.
