Saints Sail to Six Straight
Good news: a solid win from the southern Saints over the northern mob after a bit of a scare. Some quality footy and some absolute crap was played which saw a 21point southern win to take the tally to six-zip in the traditional north v south grand final footy match.
Everyone was falling like flies in the last quarter with heaps of people cramping up. Scott van Tuil was seen on crutchers at various points since the win and Keith van der Schoor is nursing a broken finger.
It was certainly a tighter contest than the afternoon's onslaught, but that was almost not the case as Justin vanderVelde dominated the first quarter with four goals. The coach deserves a shellacking for moving him out of full forward.
The G-Train was very smooth in his transition to the Australian football code with some strong marking. Rick Laning was a handy inclusion, having just returned from the USA. He toiled away in the ruck all day. Jono Haynes was a late exclusion, having come down with a flu on the morning of the game. He never seems to come away from these footy games unscathed.
Anyway, looking forward to next year now.

Gee that game went quick. I felt like I was still warming up when the final whistle blew. That probably indicates I didn't run enough but the midfield rotations were nice. Oh well, bring on next year for 7 straight!
Yeah - I was trying to get you off the ground in that last quarter and you wouldn't come off... good times.
would of liked to play jerome :-(
yeah, it was the wrong wing to be trying to drag me from. especially when the ball was in my area of play. its all about accountability, didn't want to leave us a man down at a crucial point in the game!
Tim, remind me next year around August and I'll give you a yell when training starts...
Accountability - the same can't be said for the northerners...
This blog has lost its momentum. No pictures, no update.
Who are you taking to the Focus formal?
Am I going to the FOCUS formal?
Yes, you are going to the FOCUS formal.
Who is he taking?? If we're taking people, then a lot of guys will have to take guys!
Jerome, I haven't seen you round these parts for ages. Why the drought?
Cromance should start living up to his name. :-)
This is in my diary: Thursday the 18th 2:10pm in Engineering LT. Should be a big one.
Well done, but if you think Prof Michael Davis had some hard comments, wait till you see my full reply on my blog...
Double figures on a post!!!
Mike Davis' stuff was irrelevant and wasted the time of everyone who had questions that were relevant... like who was designing the steering!
