Been saying for a long time it should be a 10 team competition. Same few teams up the top end and same few teams at the bottom end year after year. Swapping a team in and out isn't going to solve the...

Natta played LB at the end of 2002/2023, I thought is was his best games in a Jets shirt. I said before jets should look at him as a LB , I remember getting shot down about it.

Susnjar is a left...

That is clear....But they haven't even looked at the Zone League One competition? On their model it only will have 11 teams? It doesn't explain where a 12th team comes from.

I just looked at NNSW competition structure, it appears there is an oversight. The winners from ZL1 don't appear to be replaced in the structure.

It states 1 team goes up from ZL1 , 1 team is...

2 clubs will go up next year anyway as 1 will go up to NL1, correct?

As it's the Australia Cup thread I will leave this conversation with one final comment. I think you missed the main point, I said a conversation should be around having 2 teams promoted and 2...

I'm suggesting that there is 5 or 6 good teams in zl2 that could compete in zl1. Croatia are one of those teams and the team that beat them Cooks Hill are another of those teams.

It's not a big...

Croatia 7 Azzurri 0

I think at a minimum there needs to be a conversation on promoting and relegated 2 teams rather then 1 in all Zone League competitions.
Possibly 5 or 6 teams in zl2 that...

We're the officials the only ones that didn't see the push on Jenkinson?

Big turnaround for minmi thirds, beat 13-0 on weekend, 1 -1 draw a few days later...

Agree, lots bag them when they loose so let's give them credit when they win.

I think if they get there ownership sorted they at least will have a nucleus of a squad that could push on a bit next...

Greta v merewether
Firsts 3-1 greta
Not much in the game, 35 yard bomb and 20 yard free kick both quality finishes for greta.

Reserves 3-0 greta

Cooks hill predicted was off
Cooks hill 3 Croatia 1
There are some quality teams in ZL2 this year Cooks Hill appear to be one of them.

O'Neill doesn't fit the mould of how the jets play. 2 fullbacks that get extremely high, require a quicker midfielder.

Good guy, decent player just doesn't fit the system under Stanton. He would...

That's probably my only prediction I will make for the year.

First grade
Merewether 4 southern lakes 1

Reserves
Merewether 1 southern lakes 0

Thanks to southern for agreeing to get the game played asap.

The jets have been in a holding position financially for a few years now and the supporters have sensed this.

I think a new owner will give everyone hope and certainty and crowds will come back....

Big rain predicted Friday and Saturday. If totals are correct hard to see many games going ahead.

To me, The jets looked like a team playing with plenty of heart. All players have something to play for.

If they didn't play with commitment yesterday they would have been smashed.

I guess we all see things different.....
I think most will agree Merewether the better side first half, needed to be better in final third.

Suburbs scored a questionable goal offside (no linesman...

If the Jets are gone then so would my main interest in the A League. I would probably support a team like macarthur from a distance. Best of a bad bunch.

In all seriousness, would the comments...

Sometimes you have to fit your best 11 into the team. I agree Taylor better on the left, but we are second last. Not too many deserve to play where they want.

Natta went well at LB last year, He...

The spoon could be avoided if we played our best side. Can we get natta moved to LB and push Lucas up to LM. Natta played his best football last year at LB, He Gets monstered at times on set pieces, ...

Why don't they give the first round bye's to the 3 top ranked ZPL teams from last year.
That would have meant Suns, Dudley and Warners Bay received byes.

This year 3 Zone League 3 teams got byes

I have seen this movie before. Another learning curve probably was the line
