Mac Uni two Div 4 sides....

[stokesalibi]

It is a win-win for your club. These blokes new to the game get a feel for it, and we all know soccer players have a fairly similar skill set, all they have to adapt to is the 360 degree movement/contact aspect. These players could very well step up through the grades at MU, and an ideal situation for 2011 would be to have a team each in Div 1-4, plus your 18s. The ECE model has been held up as the benchmark of club admin in Sydney, and rightly so, however Mac Uni are certainly holding their own in that regard over the last few years, and they should be congratulated (Except for Millard)

Thanks for your support of the extra team at mac. Why so much hate against Millard? From what i understand your the one who hit him from behind?

At the risk of being chastised by the usual peanut gallery, i'll correct you there.
If you can explain to me, how I can hit a bloke in the mouth from behind, you're a chance of the Nobel Prize for Physics.
He elbowed me in the side of the head, intended for my face, and I retaliated, stupid enough but I was concussed as a result. He went down, I plead guilty, your president and assistant's stories conflicted each others, to the point that the club umpire from Mac Uni told a completely different story to theirs, however it was me doing the right thing- pleading guilty under provocation- that got me four weeks.
Moral to the story? Lie through your teeth at the tribunal. If I ever play again and front those blokes again, i'll tell a tale of great fiction.
And the fact that Millard was playing his return game from 3 weeks off for an elbow, and was referred to on the Warriors website a few weeks ago as Sam Flying Elbows Millard, is the reason why I hold that @@@@@ in the dim light I do. Given the chance again i'd hit him harder.
And now it begins.

Sounds fair to me, maybe you need to be a bit more subtle about it.

Pete get over it - its not as though it was late at nite and he confronted you like a dog outside the pizza shop - We work not becuase we want to but as a means to an end - we play or are involved with footy because we want to - the involvement is what working allows us to do that allows us some enjoyment. You should make it you aim to just get a kick again - forget rubbish grudges.

Anyway onto serious matters - if you get a chance I need a runner and even on one leg you would walk rings around Donnie (I should call him walkabout).

Oh year back to the thread - great news that Mac Uni have great numbers, we'd all like to have an abundance - they must be doind something right over there if every man and his dog in their region wants to play for em

Colesy, I am over it, merely set the record straight by telling the above poster the truth, obviously he's been told the wrong story and is running off hearsay and conjecture, so I won't have my name attached to king hitting someone as Mac Uni's president would have the tribunal,or anyone who'll listen, believe. You've had to defend your club's name over the last few years as all and sundry called you westie junky criminal thugs, did you stay quiet and just get over it? Answer me that, and you'll understand why I chose to reply as I did.
As for Footy, its looking like i'll never get full extension and flexion in my leg so my running days could be over.

Pekay, have to agree...deliberate elbows to the head deserve everything they get in response.

Don't expect much support at the tribunal, I got king hit from behind before a bounce a few years ago, broke my nose and cheekbone and affected my living.

The bloke got two weeks...plus six for pushing the club umpire!!!! Ridiculous! Manly meted out their own punishment to their credit. Anyone convicted of an intentional elbow to the head deserves a year's suspension in my book! Especially when blokes in the lowest grades like Mac Uni's newest side are learning the game and aren't ready for that sort of carry on.

Mate anyone that touches an umpire deserves 12 months - pushing more in my opinion - maybe im old fashioned but other than the usual banter umpires were always someone you knew you didnt touch - club umpire or not.
