Also mums like it because it is safer than other codes. Easier to understand, too.

Except the offside rule. I still struggle with some of the calls I have seen in the few times I've watched the code.

As for "safer".... well you're less likely to get shoulder/arm injuries but some of the foot/ankle/knee/hip for a non-contact sport is horrific

Don't tell the mummies that!! As for offside, I would bet it doesn't apply in junior soccer.

I will jump in and suggest why this is "right". Correct me if I'm wrong but Eastwood have moved on their last two coaches (Batger and Telfer) mid-season weeks before the finals with both 1st Grade sides in the top 4 at the time. This is why spectatingspecialist feels it is "right". The players are voting with their feet by all reports across the entire club including many Oakhill boys going to play colts at Gordon next year.

I am an Eastwood supporter however it makes it mighty tough to support this club when the board and staff members constantly de-rail 1st Grade teams by putting their own interest ahead of the club.

If all reports are to be believed it will be a very interesting AGM...

Mate the Oakhill boys finishing school wouldn't have the first clue about the gossip club meanderings in here.

Talking about some of the second year colts for next year. From what I've heard from Eastwood this year and next years Oakhill group aren't worth much discussion.
