    Quit the white-anting, BMR. They are only 2 spots higher and 1 win more

      Spot on Norris. There is much less talk about stretching resources and teams playing at different venues on the weekend etc.

      It would appear that clubs have adjusted well to the new structure and it's doing its job nicely by providing more balanced competitions.

      There is a notable amount of new teams entering as well which can only be healthy for the game. I think Syd Uni have 6 teams now, Mac Uni have an extra couple, your Auburns and Maroubras, thirsty thirds have sprouted at many of the suburban teams.

      The league should be congratulated for enforcing the divisional structure.

          And in the next breath, broadcast that they love playing "Under the Radar".

          They flogged Penrith by 100 in the trial. Hopefully the Rams can re-group and can keep them to about 10 goals on the weekend.

          Enough talk though, time to head to the Greygums visitors change room to feed the roaches and rodents.
          We've got 15 unavailable this weekend. Honest.

            My bad. Two places higher. Still higher and playing at home. And Pekay's correct, I'm being pressured to stand out of the call this week to play in the reserves because we have so many out.

              BMR, on a complete tangent - what is the TV game this week? The TV game column was left blank on the fixture list.

                Div 4. Penrith V Nor-West live from Greygums. Bloke wearing webcam on headgear and a mike transmitter coming out the back of his dacks will no doubt be BMR.

                Look for the live quarter time rants from Pekay as he revs his half a dozen troops up.

                But in all seriousness, I believe that the NEAFL game would be the broadcast from Blacktown. Big day out there.

                  I finish work on base at midday, so the must-watch situation will be me breaking the land speed record on the Hornet up the Northern Road.

                      Very clever SHH, I'll give that one to you!

                      Yes, Norris, the game I'm being pressured to miss is the NEAFL showdown between the Giants at the Suns, Saturday, 12.15pm at Blacktown International Sports Park, which is the venue's new name, apparently due to copyright issues with the term 'Olympic'.
                      I'm yet to decide what I'm going to do.

                        Looking at all of the Divisions Campbelltown 18's in the Challenge Cup are still undfeated. Not bad effort at the half way mark.

                          It's been quite a turnaround for Campbelltown's Under 18s - last year in Premier Cup they didn't win a game and forfeited several away games. They must have some better numbers down there, which is a good sign for their future.

                            The U/16's they had coming through down there last year with the Razorbacks were very good, so I'm not surprised.
