St marys jumped them from the start and didn’t look back. They played exceptionally well , watsonia were absolutely terrible. Looked a completely different team to the last two weeks!

They’ve definitely recruited well no doubt. I still feel it would be considered a bigger failure by Eltham if they weren’t to win it, just my opinion mate.
Eltham have recruited to win it this year no doubt. They’ve bought in 3 30+ year olds to do it. Nothing wrong with that but clearly going all in. Add to that a few players giving it their last crack as well.

Diamond Creek have had a big crack and recruited just as well but their recruits overall aren’t in the twilight of their careers.

Eltham vs Epping will show us nothing. South Morang Vs DC should be interesting.

Who’s recruits are better in your opinion?

Both clubs did well. Both filled gaps. Hard to say. Eltham got a ruckman which if they had for the last 2 GFs could be in D1
Ok so sitting on the fence..
Who do you think would be a bigger failure if not to win the flag, Eltham or Diamo?
 
Have to be Eltham as the biggest failure if they don’t win the flag this year.
Dominate 2’s ensures great depth for the club, best ground and facilities (as they keep telling everybody)
They should be a quality division 1 club but have been behind Hurstbridge, Whittlesea and now Banyule who have been 1st division clubs.
Plenty of pressure on the Panthers as a club to get out of divsion 2 and if they don’t in 2023 it will be another huge fail

Well if Panther beat DC by 50 points it would be hard to argue DC recruited better so yep sitting on the fence.

I’d say Panther, it would be their 3rd GF in 4 seasons. DC not playing in any of them. So the pressure is mounting on Eltham to get a result.
 
4 out of 5 tipis missing on Watsonia

Winner of the round: St Marys lead from start to finish opening their account in 2023 with a 12 goal win over the previously undefeated Watsonia outfit. Nick Dean had a day out with 8 majors and will collect the 3 votes for BOG. Sets up an intriguing encounter with Northcote Park this week

Loser of the week: Both Lower Plenty and Panton Hill slip to 0-3, after the recruitment drive of the redbacks I am sure they didn’t want to 0-3. The interesting thing is that they play each other this week at AE Cracknell reserve in what shapes as a huge game for both clubs. With player movement from Lower to Panton Hill it sets up an mouth watering clash
