BIG MARGINS IN THE OPENING ROUND
Big margins were the order of the day in the opening to the 2010 RMFL season. The match at Johnstone Park was the closest of the round with Mannum beating Imperials by 47 points, reversing the result in last years Grand Final. After a close first quarter, the Roos added 9.4 to 0.1 to lead at half time by 55 points at half time. Imps fought hard in the third term adding 5.6 to 2.4, but couldn’t repeat the effort in the last quarter to go down comfortably. Mannum’s best were Michael Rander and 2009 B & F winner Mark Mueller, whilst for Imps Tyson Wait and Tom Hines played well.
Ramblers gave Jervois a 170 point hiding at Le Messurier Oval, with Ben Dougall and skipper Liam O’Neill leading the charge with five goals apiece. Jervois sadly couldn’t kick a goal until the third term and were best served by skipper Chris Braun and Steven Braun.
At Tailem Bend, Meningie put on an excellent display to defeat the hosts by 94 points. The Bears forwards were on fire with Daniel Noske kicking eight and Joshua Benbow five, Chris Lawson in the best. For Tailem, Beau Miller and Matthew Kruger were best.
This week, Ramblers travel to Mannum in the match of the round, Jervois and Tailem Bend meet, both seeking a first win and Mypolonga have their first game of the season, playing Meningie. Imperials have the Bye.

By Brendan Shakes
Imperials are once again premiers after comfortably brushing aside Mannum on their home deck, with a 67 point victory.
With both their under 15’s and reserve sides winning earlier in the day, Imperials were under pressure to repeat the efforts and exorcise the demons of their 2003 defeat to Mannum.
After an even first quarter, Imperials were able to put away the Roos and take the flag back to JohnstonePark for the first time since 2002. A bumper crowd was out at Mannum and throughout the day, teams played in near perfect conditions. Mannum elected to kick with the breeze after winning the toss and choosing to head towards the city end. The home side began the game in a similar way to their match against Imperials a fortnight ago, with the Roos booting three unanswered goals. Their confidence was up as their star players were making an impact with Ben Quinn and Clive Waterhouse each kicking early goals in the quarter.
Imperials were attempting to attack into the breeze but for the first half of the opening term was unable to as Mannum’s half back line absorbed the
pressure. The Blues were desperate to get back in the match and a free kick in the goal square to ruckman Ryan Edwards gave them their opening goal.
Mannum were running harder as their early intensity was greater than that of Imperials and an instant goal from the centre clearance to Waterhouse
extended their lead. Two goals in two minutes from Imperials reduced the margin but Quinn was able to slot his second after Waterhouse went down in a behind the play incident.
Tempers were flaring and emotions were high as Quinn made sure the Imperials crowd heard about his goal. Imperials welcomed back Tyson Wait from a hand injury and late in the quarter, his run out of defence and skills by foot helped his side to a one goal lead after the first term.
As much as Mannum had showed early, by the end of the quarter they had nothing to show for it as Imperials pressure and multiple options up forward into the wind proved to be a substantial blow to the Roos chances.
The second term saw Imperials blow their chance of blowing the game out of the water as inaccuracy in front of goal kept Mannum in the match. Matthew Seyers, who had been quiet for Imperials, booted two early goals and his prescence in the forward line made things difficult for the Mannum defence. For most of the term the ball was up in the Imperials forward line as their endless amount of star midfielders continually sent the football into attack.
Tensions were still high and soon bubbled over after Mannum’s Aaron Hockey was yellow carded.
The extra man helped Imperials with Zeb Kenny dodging opponents and slotting home his first goal and Wait rolling one in on the strike of half time to give their side a 25 point lead at the main break.
Known as the premiership quarter, Imperials certainly proved it to be, outscoring Mannum five goals to three. The Blues gained more momentum during the third quarter as Mannum looked under the pump. Costly skill errors as well as free kicks in Imperials forward line extended the Blues lead as Mannum could only watch as their chance slipped away.
Whether it was in the middle or around the ground, Imperials quelled the dominance of Mannum’s ruckman Brad Wakefield and Michael Rander. Neither ruckman displayed the dominance of a fortnight ago as Edwards and Jamie Honnor were able to give first use to their midfielders. The centre clearances were one way traffic and Imperials prime movers in Ash Temby and Henry Hodge continually found space on the big ground. Two goals in time on from Imperials pushed their score over the hundred mark but a late goal to Mannum’s Levi Krause gave them the smallest glimmer of hope, with his side down by 37 points with a quarter remaining.
Last time these teams played out at Jervois, Imperials overcame a 28 point deficit to head straight through to the grand final but for Mannum there was to be no repeat as the Blues only broadened their lead. Both small forwards for Imperials, Shaun O’Brien and Chad Wingard had played good games and the latter was able to snap truly early on for his fifth goal. Wingard had been polished up forward with his clean hands and fantastic vision as he was up in Imperials best and unlucky not be adjudged best on ground.
As the celebrations began on the hill where Imperials supporters had situated themselves, their side continued to pile on the misery for Mannum with a seven goal quarter. Imperials had been the dominant side all year with the group continually finding the ability to gain the only momentum and then prevent their
opponents from having a remote chance of a comeback. Ben Quinn, who had been on fire in the first quarter, had gone unnoticed as Roger Puckridge and company reduced the former Mail Medalist’s impact.
As the siren blew, a flood of blue swept onto the ground to congratulate and celebrate with their players as Imperials won their first premiership since 2002.
The Patrons medal for the players adjudged best on ground went to Imperials Zeb Kenny who was the standout midfielder in the game. Post match, Imperials coach Tony Fielke said the feelings of winning were “very good” as his side had been the best team for the year.
“This year was different to the previous years as this year we had the best team on paper whilst previously we had been the underdogs,” Fielke said.
“The past seven years have been hard on and off the field and the previous four have been bloody hard. “After the first ten minutes, it was probably four of the highest quality quarters we had played for the year.
For Mannum coach David Dolheguy, as much as there is a disappointment for his team, he said that they simply came up against a side that had been on
top all year.
“We were fairly confident heading into the match but even though it would have been nice to win, at the end of the day they were the better side,”
Dolheguy said.
Dolheguy said that the day itself was fete itself as for Mannum it has been a long time since both senior grades had been in the Grand Final.
“I asked people around the club whether they could remember the last time both A’s and B’s were in the Grand Final and they couldn’t. Having both
sides shows more importantly that the football club has come a long way.”
