Welcome to the <strong>Pembroke</strong> King’s weekly newsletter – The King’s Speech. Each week it will fill you in on<br />
the previous weeks happenings around the club as well as what to expect in the coming weeks.<br />
A tough weekend saw the <strong>Kings</strong> go down at Thebarton Oval versus Seaton. Unfortunately both the B and C<br />
grades were also unable to come away with wins. This only gives the club the opportunity to improve so<br />
turning to this week we take on Para Hills at home. Para Hills are sitting one position above us on the<br />
ladder only by percentage. This is a massive game for the boys and a must win so get along on Saturday<br />
and show your support. <strong>Round</strong> <strong>12</strong> is brought to you by Berry Funeral Directors.<br />

Unfortunately another disappointing result on the weekend against Seaton Ramblers. We went<br />
into game with 4 changes which unfortunately seems to be the season average. An old coach<br />
once mentioned that excuses are like 'backsides', everyones got them! (actually he said<br />
something else but i have cleaned it up for the purpose of the email. Having said that it would be<br />
difficult for our supporters to comprehend why our results have been so poor particularly after a<br />
winning start to the season. On Saturday we got beaten by 10 goals to a side we defeated in the<br />
first round. Since our first match, the clubs depth has been tested losing Canny, Franklin, Panelli<br />
(our entire center square from the season opener),Grigoul and Brackenridge. In the next two<br />
weeks we lose centre half forward Matt Falzon and full back Henry Nicholson to overseas<br />
commitments. This means only one thing. Opportunities!<br />
On Saturday it was the youngest side that we have put on the park with 15 of the 21 'A grade'<br />
players under the age of 22. Of these 15, at least <strong>12</strong> have played less than 10 games of A grade<br />
football for the <strong>Pembroke</strong> <strong>Kings</strong>. I say this not as an excuse but to try to give our supporters some<br />
context as to our results so far this season. Opportunities will continue to come and i have been<br />
pleased with the improvement shown by a number of the younger players. On Saturday our<br />
inexperience showed with the stronger bodies of Seaton winning the contested ball which<br />
invariably created opportunities down the ground. Harry Thring has been one of the big improvers<br />
this season and he once again led the way with a best on ground performance. Tom Evans has<br />
continued his improvement with 4 goals and 2 quality assists from very limited opportunities.<br />
Jimmy Pinkney and Alex Catford also had good performances.<br />
This week we are back at home against Para Hills.<br />

For the second time this year we travelled to Thebarton Oval to take on Seaton Ramblers. The game<br />
started well for the <strong>Kings</strong> and we showed some good signs early. The first half half we saw some great<br />
efforts all over the ground and we were with Seaton on the scoreboard. Just before the main break<br />
Tommy Seagrim kicked a long bomb to get us within a goal from the Ramblers. As the game wore on<br />
there seemed to be a drop in concentration and there were simple skill errors which hurt us. We ended up<br />
going down by 6 goals.<br />
It was great to have a chat as a group after the game – something that I think has only been done once<br />
this year – and go through the game. I think that it’s a great way to iron out the things that we need to work<br />
on as a team and hear from the playing group. Win or lose I think that we should take 10 minutes just to<br />
have chat amongst the group and share out thoughts on the game.<br />
Michael ‘Hagred’ Walsh played a great game in his 100 th for the club. With Dogga out due to exams<br />
Walshy played out 4 quarters in the ruck and didn’t stop working. Our resident Irishman Declan Gallen<br />
was courageous all day hitting the contest with everything he had and didn’t stop until the siren went.<br />
Blakey Sanders in his second game back for the year played some creative footy and shown us that we<br />
have been missing him all year. He also landed one of the best tackles I’ve seen this year that resulted in<br />
one of their players being sent off with a yellow card and we were eventually were rewarded with a goal.<br />
Its this stuff that inspires and lifts your team mates on the field and get the results on the board. It was the<br />
best game for the year for Jack ‘Nugget’ Franklin with his strong hands and ability to move the footy on<br />
quickly. Smedgie Smerdon attacked the ball fiercely off the half back line with his sharp hands allowing us<br />
to move the ball through the centre.<br />
This week we take on Para Hills at home. Last time we saw them we got up by one point in a great<br />
contest. These boys will be hungry to get some revenge on us so we have to make sure that we are ready<br />
from the get go and we should have a good game on our hands. Hate Para Hills!<br />

What were your goals at the start of season 2011? At the half way point of<br />
the season where do you stand with them? Main goal was obviously to play<br />
some finals, personally I wanted to try and show a bit more leadership within the<br />
group and perform consistently for the team…. Finals hopes are looking glim,<br />
Could always do more to improve the leadership aspect and performance still<br />
working on it.<br />
What is on Alex Catford’s Saturday morning breakfast plate/bowl before a<br />
game?<br />
I eat a fair bit before a game, it usually consist of weet-bix (4-6) a banana, maybe<br />
some toast, I usually eat a sub or some bakers delight rolls on the way to the game<br />
and ill usually chuck in a packet of chips or a chocolate bar after that.<br />
What is your usual meal at the Kensi? Beef schnitty with diane sauce.<br />
Which song would be playing over your highlights reel? Ill leave that up to the guru of editing Jack chooky Wightman.<br />
What was the last movie you saw and how many spuds? Sherlock Holmes, yeah I rate it 4 spuds<br />
What is the best TV show on at the moment? Probably how I met your mother<br />
If you could be anyone for a day who would it be? Sir David Attenborough , so I could make a documentary on the football life of kings<br />
legend Charlie Prider.<br />
What are your thoughts on the AFL subs rule? Don’t like it that much they are starting to bring in to many new rules and regulations<br />
just leave the game as it was.<br />
Who’s your tip to win the AFL Premiership this year? Unfortunately the pie’s<br />
Where is the best place to head out in Adelaide after the infamous ‘Hour of Power’? Lately, havvy, alma, bakery, chookies night<br />
club.... sleep at the Wightmans and breakfast at the colonist.<br />
Who’s going to win Wimbledon? Novak djokovic<br />
Have you been ‘studying’ in preparation for this weekend’s quiz night? Nah not really I’ve been trying to convince the trivia genius<br />
Nick Bently to be on my table.<br />
Who stole the cookies from the cookie jar? Steven seagull (Jake Brennan)<br />

What were your goals at the start of season 2011? At the half way point of the season<br />
where do you stand with them? Play all A-Grade games and win a flag. At present I haven’t<br />
missed a game, not sure about winning a flag though, maybe focus on staying out of the drop<br />
zone for now.<br />
What is on Jack Creevy’s Saturday morning breakfast plate/bowl before a game? Ham,<br />
Cheese and Tomato toastie<br />
What is your usual meal at the Kensi? If there aren’t any good specials I’ll settle for a bowl<br />

Which song would be playing over your highlights reel? Enter the Ninja – Die Antwoord<br />
What was the last movie you saw and how many spuds? Green Zone – 3/5. Decent plot but<br />
went a bit over the top on the fight scenes<br />

though<br />
If you could be anyone for a day who would it be? Pierre-Louise Costes – soon to be the best bodyboarder ever<br />
What are your thoughts on the AFL subs rule? Absolutely terrible – screwed up my DT all year. Seriously though, the pace of the game<br />
isn’t going to slow down because of it, players just won’t be able to keep it us as long and injuries will start happening more and more<br />
often. Multiple hammies being done in a single game like Essendon vs Hawthorn last week will become increasingly common.<br />
Who’s your tip to win the AFL Premiership this year? Hawthorn are the dark horses and are coming home strong. But I’d back Geelong<br />
in, too much experience in the big time. George-Horlin Smith to debut in the GF and nab the Norm-Smith too, get on it.<br />
Where is the best place to head out in Adelaide after the infamous ‘Hour of Power’? I’m usually a bit of a Havelock fiend but have<br />
gone off there recently. So maybe the Alma, just as long as the 24hr bakery’s involved it’s usually a good night.<br />
Who’s going to win Wimbledon? Novak Djokovic to get past Nadal and his three-quarter length pants in the final<br />
Have you been ‘studying’ in preparation for this weekend’s quiz night? If there’s anything to do with remote sensing I’m all over it,<br />
haven’t had time to look at any besides that in the weeks leading up to exams<br />
Who stole the cookies from the cookie jar? Chookie stole the cookie from the cookie jar? Nah, Catters…always blame Catters<br />
