Southern Football (incl Southern United) (Part 1)
Mornington. I know some people who have talked to people - a lot of chatter has been going down at turf on Wednesday nights.
Back on to Otago Utd � I hear they will struggle a bit this weekend. They have several players either suspended, injured or prior commitments. From what I can ascertain the following players are unavailable.
1. Andy Coburn � Suspended (some have said it was a deliberate red at end of game so that he is able to be best man at young Henderson�s wedding)
2. Tom Jackson � Suspended
3. Robbie Deeley � Suspended
4. Colin Falvey � Injured
5. Mike Smith � Injured
6. Reece Henderson � getting married � I am afraid so girls.
With an already depleted team this will be one big load of s*** to push up hill.
This debate about whick club to go to is poor to say the best..You are leaving it pretty late to find a good side at this time of year so I would try Caversham tonight at Tonga park then Dunedin Tech Tuesday and see how you go!As for Otago United this weekend they could be in big trouble with nearly half there 1st team away with coburn,deeley and I think even Horner at Henderson�s wedding.Does anyone have odd�s on the Otago game for the weekend?As for the comment Caversham is the best side in the South Island I agree with Tech nipping at there heels and I tink one of these two sides could go one further and bring the Chathum cup back to Dunedin this year but I do say that every year but we will see!
flamingmongrel is you nedd help getting into tech/cavvy I have contacts so give me a ring 027416

The only reason I would go to Roslyn was if I was trying to get the Otago Player of the Year award - it's a guarantee (it may even be in the contract that if you are there for at least one season you will win it no matter where the team ends up on the table) - and as for this off the field environment you talk of Horsehead....you have to be joking, with all the anger management issues going on over there you will do well not to take a couple of shots to the face from your own team mates. Apparently the only pick up spot for that Roslyn van is Wakari Hospital up the hill so unless you live around there or enjoy playing with the mentally impaired FM stay on this side of the hill.
Culling Cafe....now there is a safe environment to have a couple of beers with good natured people.Anger management?? cant remember a single fight at the club last season kennedy.. as for only pik up waikari hospital thats a bit lame and entirely untrue.
DUNEDIN TECH ARE THE BEST ALL THE OTHER ARE PEST�S! SO THERE HORSEHEAD
If I was you Mongrel, I'd go take it easy at Uni. It's a fun life (I played for Uni team in Chch), sure may not be that reliable, but great lads

This is a great point Kennedy! Sean Brand player of the year last year - who would agree with that!!!!!!!!
I would try tech or cavy first bigtime.. all this talk about roslyn being the best team off the park is rubbish... from the people i have spoken to, Roslyn are the most hated team in dunedin end of story!!
out&about2nite2009-02-27 08:18:49A bitch fight in Dunedin,
I agree with Kennedy..Without naming names because everyone no's who they are player's have gone where they think they have the best chance of winning medals 08 tech 07 Roslyn 06 Mosgiel i could be wrong about this but there dosen't seem to be alot of loyalty to there respected clubs they are playing for at the time but then i think you need to look at a club like Caversham with Steve Fleming being at the helm for a number of year's and player's such as Horner,Murray,Cook,Blaker,Henderson,Deeley,Wild, Fleming,Okane all have been there for no less than 4year's being in the same enviroment and knowing how there fellow team mate's play and you can tell this team has played together for a number of games.You are always going to have new player's coming and player's leaving but if you can keep a core of your team for 2-3 year's you are always going to have a better chance of a team just dragged together over the summer..Saying that i think tech with Scoullar,Burgess,Coburn,Mr Soccer,Mckenzie if they can keep these guys together at the club with some younger tallent coming tho like prattley n the young guy up front they will have a strong side for year's to come.
And Otago Player Of the Year award well maybe someone should go steal it off Sean Brand and let the 3 names above have turn's taking it home although what brando has fdonwe with it you may struggle getting them to take it!
Feedback you have been very quiet..............................................
I agree with Kennedy..Without naming names because everyone no's who they are player's have gone where they think they have the best chance of winning medals 08 tech 07 Roslyn
I think you mean mosgiel 05 (boylan and eisenhut), mosgiel 06 were woeful. And roslyn 06 ( Boylan and eisenhut)Roslyn 07???? who went to roslyn in 07 to win medals?? its was a young team who finished third...pritty unfounded comment.
