Great to hear! Thanks for the update. Will pass on your thanks to her. She does know her stuff. Pretty handy to have likes of her and senior St Johns ambulance officer within our ranks.

Yeh I agree some of the officiating has been terribly inconsistent. Soft calls coupled with refs letting clearly reckless tackles go. I do agree that if this isn't nipped in the bud early then players take it into their own hands. I've certainly been guilty of this. I think the problem is some of the refs have absolutely no people skills whatsoever. I would say that over 75% of being a ref would be interpersonal skills and how they interact with players. They have an extremely difficult job and the problem is there is such a small pool of refs to choose from so picking and choosing who has the best man management skills just isn't possible. Most clubs will take what they get as long as its an official.

Terrace happy to sit back and counter couple quick guys. Barnsley played most of possession still hard to crack.

As a keen fan of zl1,2,3 i keep an eye on all results. What is going on at bero?
Mate we will take any win at this stage, good to finally get off the mark. Created plenty of chances Just couldn't finish many. Literally the story of all three grades.
All games were a bit scrappy, although Panda was heard spruiking how his 3rd grade team played the best football on the day!!
9 points for the day is a great result
Refs were extremely good in all 3 grades
Refs were outstanding at corroba yesterday. Deserved a mention. They cop plenty of shit all year but happy to give them credit where it's due.
1-0 all three grades and could have been more. Made hard for ourselves. Don't think the Bay will trouble many this year. Just my opinion
