Corp has only played 2 and Martyn/Gribbin just the 1. They only played during byes and i think were only going to qualify if they had a full out with their club and decided to come back and play out the season with Rovers.

I would say winning when it counts is during finals. A win this week is no more or less important than in round 1. Rovers have got games in the bank. Just think if some of you teams could've knocked them off in the first half of the year they wouldn't be sitting pretty on top a game clear still!

Jackas went down by 5 points to MHSOB with a High School goal kicked with one second left on the clock.
Lead changed plenty of times throughout the game.
I hate to do this and if you check my posting history you will see that I never have before. But, that was the most disgraceful umpired game I have ever been to.
I never buy into arguments that umpiring decisions decide games becuase a couple of bad decisions do not make the difference over 100 minutes.
However, the umpires (the tall bloke in particular) gave - by my count - MHSOB 8 goals from free kicks and/or 25 metre penalties. The tall bloke paid at least seven soft 25 metre penalties on his own. They were disgraceful and were one of the main reasons melbourne high won.
I know you are all going to abuse me, call me a sore loser and say ajax deserves it but i just needed to vent.
At the same time, Ajax did not play anywhere near their best and when that happens, you're bound to lose.

There are games that are won, there are games that are lost and there are games that are thrown away.... Well done MHSOB on a never say die effort.
MHSOB led by 28 points in the 3rd quarter but Ajax fought back to lead by 19 points going into time on in the last quarter...
MHSOB kicked the last 4 goals in 5 minutes against an Ajax side which really never deserved to win all day.
Ajax lost it from the coaching bench ...... why would Ajax never learn what to do in those circumstances?No message came out to slow it down or to flood the defence, and MHSOB fought to the end.
The umpire mentioned above gave some appalling decisions but he cannot be blamed for Ajax's loss

Just got off the phone to a mate at MHSOB re comments made by Gun Footballer. The Gun was right according to my mate. Even by his own admission, the umpire singled out by Gun was a joke. He said they were happy to get the 4 points however the umpire kept them in it with some shocking frees and strange 25 metre penalties. Makes the run home interesting in C grade now.

Watching Oakliegh yestrday i was extremely impressed. Having beaten them in the first round i thought we would be able to match up amd do well. They controlled the game from the outset, good running midfield, good forward line options and solid down back. Playing with alot of confidence. Will be hard to beat.
As for Ajax, i have empathy for gun footballer, we all feel we have been on the end of some shocker days by the men in white, overall it probably evens out over time. Yosi's post is not worth commenting on and Mazal you keep representing the boys as you seem a fair man. Well done to MHSOB, we would need to win every game from hear and hope someone loses all three. Virtually impossible. However it has been a great competition and have been wrapped to be a part ofit.
Whatever happens i believe Rupo can rebound from this year with hard work, commitment and a bit of luck.

Well an interesting afternoon at Bulleen. Hampton won comfortably in the end but for my money were not very impressive in doing it. More a case of Whitefriars being woeful. However, the Friars were right in the mix due to inaccurate Hampton kicking until mid second quarter when they absolutely butchered two strong plays into their goal square and Hampton whisked it away for scores at the other end. It was quite common to see Friars storming up the wing and kicking over into the forward line to find three (count 'em!) Rovers waiting for the ball and... zero men in blue.
Overall I was quite disappointed today, I've seen a fair bit of C section footy in the last couple of years although this was the first one I've watched this year, to be honest Hampton really weren't anything to write home about, maybe some of their outs messed up the game flow. The Friars of today would be given a pasting by at least two or three D2/D3 sides. Harsh call maybe, but Werribee and Williamstown would have easily taken the four points.
Hope the Whitefriars magoo with the busted leg is not too bad and hopefully he can be back in good form next year.

What an interesting Round 16 we have in front of us, with 3 games that could have an enormous outcome in the way the final 4 looks like come Round 18. The 3 games concerned are Hampton Rovers v Parkdale, AJAX v Whitefriars, Ormond v Oakleigh.
You generally seem to have a decent understanding of the game, but your comments about the poor standard contradict that. Both sides were up against it in very blowy conditions. I would've thought it was a fairly honest performance. Each to their own.
Pretty sure it's Ajax v Monash, Jason. And why wouldn't Mazenod v Friars be an important one? Rupo v MHSOB isn't exactly a nothing game either.
The Parkdale ressies ump has now surpassed the Ajax and Monash ones,what a cheat if it wasn't for him they would have got done by heaps more.His 25 metres were around 45,one was twice the length of the cricket pitch.

Spot on, have had many run ins with this bloke, how the VAFA Umpires Assoc. can still let him umpire is a blight on the game. Give it away you old tosser.

Who cares it didn't help them. They only kicked 4 goals for the game!
Good win by the 1's. Great 2nd quarter set up the win & withstood a brief comeback in the 3rd. Some late goals after the sting was out of the game flattered Parkdale in the end.
Season over for Parkdale with Mazenod only a real chance to get into the 4 from here.
