Claremont paying a dollar 24c for the win in this match. Swans are quoted at 4 dollars.

Great to see you getting an opportunity at another club TRSM. Everyone deserves a second chance. Go the black and whites today. Reserves doing well after a very disappointing result in the early match.

We were terrific up to the 8 minute mark of the 2nd qtr when we registered our 5th goal.
Kohlmann was marking every thing and giving us a real focal point.
Then our coach said , guys what are you doing, that's not how we play lets go back to to having all 18 players in defensive area so we have no one to kick it to when we get the ball.
Consequently our next goal came 2qtrs and 7 mins later and after Claremont had kicked away.

Actually as a club we are 0-6 in all 3 grades.
As Richie Benaud would say-...just marvellous stuff!

At the quarter time break someone in the Claremont huddle said that if you press up on Swans their poor skills with give you the football. Despite kicking three in ten minutes in the third, Claremont's press started taking affect after that point and, as predicted, we turned the ball over. Similar to last week, we couldn't get the ball forward where Kohlmann's, Notte's and Farrant's height were causing Claremont headaches. We have no plan to counter the press that kills us by our own hand week after week.

As for the umpire that gave the bewildering decision to penalise a Swan districts defender for throwing the ball that eventually resulted in Claremont’s winning goal in the reserves game…it might be expensive but I am sure I can arrange a plane and parachute to drop you into places where your incompetence will feel right at home – the middle of Melbourne or any place in the USA…

the sad truth is that, most coaches today would play the great G Ablett snr., as a 'floating chfb' or on a half back flank and make him into a defensive, ordinary player.

SDFC - New year......same football crap:

70% of our players;
Poor skills, turning the ball over,
No real game plan, playiers don’t have the football knowledge,
Lack of fitness, can’t finish out a game,
No discipline.

THE coaching staff from football to fitness need to have good look at their methods. It’s not working. Nil wins in all grades for 2020.

Time to take ownership of the situation and do your job....... coach and prepare the players.

You are not wrong AR and the likes of all time greats Lockett, Dunstall etc would not even get a game because they wouldnt pass the beep test or skinfolds.....what a complete joke the game has become!

Haha yes you had to laugh SH, the amount of obvious free kicks those muppets miss and they pick that out at the 24 minute mark of the last qtr in CL's forward line.
And then with SD going forward after the bounce they call a ball up at 24.40 on the clock and did not even bounce the ball as it took the clown 20 seconds to pick the ball up, preen himself, ask who is rucking, preen himself again, make sure no one is standing behind him etc and successfully wasted 20 seconds until the siren went....!
