Good games in wet conditions. Didn't want to stop raining and it got very boggy in firsts.
We couldn't hit the side of a barn today but was a good solid hit out

Greta not posting their results, or should I look on the Zone League 3 thread, which is where they should be?
Understandable this weekend as no one wanted to play on ANZAC day.
That said it doesn't have to be this way all year. Brad Carlin says at the beginning of every year if you play Friday or Sunday he will guarantee that you will get refs, yet everyone wants to insist on playing on a Saturday.
The best way of fixing the refs crisis is making the 3rd grade a midweek comp. Whatever night the home team train on a Tues/Wed/Thur play the 3rd Grade game. This would allow referees to only send 2 refs to ZL games with home team running a line. They could even send 1 ref and both teams could run a line each.
There'll be no ref's again this week lads.
It's not ZPL & ZL1 struggling for refs is it?
It's ZL2 & ZL3 that struggle for refs. As I've said numerous times, Brad Carlin suggest every year if you play Friday or Sunday he will guarantee that you will get refs. However ZL2 & ZL3 clubs still insist that they play on Saturday and then they question why they don't receive refs. It's a simple fix, move games to Friday or Sunday or run the risk that you don't receive refs.
