Great when they do that. I actually founded GE when it was called South Caulfield in 1970 and have seen umpires come and go. An apprenticeship system would be great . As you suggested . In those years I've seen some great umpires and some woeful ones. It's sad that there aren't too many new ones coming through the ranks hence older ones are hanging in. Even in the reserves it's difficult. One of our reserves umps is over 70 because retired players just don't want the job. Maybe more money may be the answer.

What have they got to do with Ormond , trust me Ormond might have been arrogant in the halcyon days , but not now with such a young list of terrific kids . Please don't put us in the Phantom class . Where the f is his old mate Gun ?

Apparently Gunn island has been identified, I hear that a week or so ago he was behind the combine coaches box and they figured it out... rumour circling that a photo has been taken!!!

We can all breath a sigh of relief , especially the founder from 1970 and the present coach.

Thank god for that, incontrovertible proof that GI is not Bedford. Hopefully the usual suspects can permanently shut up about it now.

went and watched Yarra v mhob today, didn’t see that coming! Barker did his string in the third after looking dangerous - hope he’s ok.

No doubt Yarra will cry injuries and outs as they have all year but mhsob have 4 or 5 of their genuine top 10 out including 2 stars - K Smith (wrist) 76 goals last year. S braithwaite (ACL) 13 goals in 2 games this year and some other key players. Beat them fair and square.

No changes to the standings today.

Saw this game today, MHSOB did win fair and square, jumped Yarra from the 1st quarter and never really looked back. Barker looked ominous before grabbing his string, Yarra clearly have a bit of wortk to do! High looked good, 22 player effort.

Hawks looked by far the better side yesterday and at one stage was 41 points up in the second but ran out of legs. Full credit to our boys who never gave in and should have won by more in the end.

 

[Navyblues09]

Just looking at the results, a couple of teams really kicked themselves out of the game. 2 weeks in a row some very poor kicking by Yarra

 

[Gun Island]

Have Glen Eira improved , or did NOBS have a day off ?

Tight game at Melbourne High today. We fought hard but they were a little too strong in body and experience. Melbourne High will be a finals challenger while the wins aren't far away for us.

 

[Phantom Strobler]

Great day at Packer Park . Seniors won , reserves by over 40 goals , under 19s and ladies were winners. Clubbies lost. Bulleen guys were great and stayed back for a drink. They celebrated a player breaking their senior club game record of over 270 games. Both clubs presented him accordingly with the game ball and a slab. Well done great effort.

Hey buddy I was watching live scores and saw it was pretty close 1/2 time.
I picked MH to finish 4th so after slow start they have found their feet. Who are you playing next week?

Yarra at home. We were down 3 of our best today but not good enough. Reckon there is a breakout game coming soon for us.
