ressies belmont v mussy
0-4
mussy were all class against a belmont team that really didnt look interested. allowed mussy mids way to much room.

firsts hamo v terrace
2-2
hamo came out strongly and scored in like the first 15 seconds. terrace looked asleep and were 2 nil down after a well taken free kick by my mate gj23.
hamo were playing well, actually trying to play some decent football instead of their usual hack fest however started to dive (even the ref was laughing at a few of them). the diving nearly payed off when they were awarded a really soft pen after a dive but number 8 missed the goals.
some strange substitions (imo) plus the hamo defence tiring and giving the two terrace strikers a bit of space allowed terrace to score two pretty comfortable goals.
hamo looked the better side however were very soft on the ball and terrace strikers missed a number of opportunities they would normally have finished so a draw probably fair.

[p-diddy]

the winner from this leg will win the grandfinal. westlakes dont have enough imagination to win a 2 leg and belmont wont keep up with terrace strikers and olympic have a good disciplined formation terrace look like the only team that can counter attack olympic..

on aggregate westlakes beat hamo 6-2 this year.
doesnt sound like olympic attack wins...
terrace is the only team that beats westlakes on aggregate this year and that was something like 8-7 so to say they cant win a two leg is rediculous

after watching the game today neither team impressed me that much. I dont think there is much seperating any of the top 4, will be interesting to see who comes out on top

[RANGER09]

Credit to the Hamo team for taking it to us today, playing on big brothers small pitch suits their style of play. To go a goal down in the opening minute was a bit disheartening but the penalty miss gave our boys a lift. Unfortunately we went another goal down just before the break from a well placed free kick. After getting a few thing off their chest the boys came out firing in the second half and created plenty of chances to put the game away but were only fortunate enough to put 2 goals in to finish with the draw, 2away goals could prove vital leading into next week. Looking forward to playing on our home pitch next sat.
It's a shame the Muswellbrook boys aren't playing finals footy in first grade, could have easily taken out the comp with everyone available each week and would have been good to line up against my old mates once more :)

[p-diddy]

yeah you might have beaten them on aggregate playing them 9 weeks between fixtures. and its finals football neither team has to impress there was some pretty football in patches out there from both teams my opinion westlakes cant win it and probably wont progress past belmont but let the football do the talking and prove me wrong.

Totally agree with the above comments made by ranger09
It was a great game. Nice park. Big crowd. 2 very hard teams. All Hamo first half & all terrace second half.
Shout out for your honesty ranger09 . Very respectable words..

Be nice friend :)
It was a bomb!

It was a good game by both teams involved..

WTF! The Ref did a great job today, fair on both teams I'd say..
I know you weren't drunk, we all saw you drinking soft drink all day.

will admit it was a bomb, keeper had no chance.
i do agree ref had a good game and yes he did laugh after a few players went down softly.

[the_butcher]

Spewin I left at half time in firsts!
First half Hamilton were the more hungry team and terrace couldn't match their intensity. I think I said it earlier in the season on this thread that if you can get inside les' ( terrace striker) head he drops his bundle and loses the plot...and that's exactly what happened! Hamilton gave him nothing and when things werent going right for him he lost his head and couldn't play his game. He is a great player but if I was his team mate I'd have a word with him during the week about staying relaxed out there, terrace need him to fire if they are going to progress.

Hamilton knocked the ball around well and did a good job to mark bobby and les out of the game in the first half. I like Hamilton and I'm mates with a couple of their boys and supports but I definitely agree that they are serial whingers and go down very easily. But at the end of the day it's the refs job to blow the whistle so you can't blame Hamilton for any of the decisions.

Looking forward to the next leg! All the best and good luck to both teams

[true waterboy]

It was a reply to comment that westlakes can't win.
Anyways like I said not much seperates the top 4 teams

I'm trying to understand how you think?
I guarentee you many others are as well.

Here's my conclusion, and please correct me if I'm wrong.

If 2 teams for example, Hamilton & Westlakes played a total of 6 games & Westlakes won 5 games 1-0 & Hamilton won 1 game 6-0 that means Hamilton is the better team, is that correct?

WoW!

I was talking about aggregate goals as p diddy said westlakes couldn't win a two leg aggregate final. Soz for the confusion

[GJ23]

Any updates on Westlakes Belmont game?

[pv4]

caught the second half of the cats game.

Westlakes 1-0 (no away goals yeewwww)!

the referee & the supporters-side linesman would struggle to see >10m in front of them.

[true waterboy]

Jeso 1 v charlie 0
I thought charlie looked good for the half I saw. Will be a good second game.

Westlakes 1 v Belmont 0
First half 50/50 with Belmont looking very dangerous from the throw in.
Second half westlakes definitely on top. No idea where that keeper came from but he had a blinder. Stopped a number of chances which woulda normally have been slotted. Haven't seen him before but he's quality

[pv4]

for all those aggregate talkers out there - that puts Westlakes 1 goal up to 0 on aggregate.

which means a win, draw or Westlakes-scoring-but-1-goal-loss next week puts them into the big game at the mutual ground

[Ram Raider]

Just a thought, if Muswellbrook forfeit next Saturday would they still go through as only goes down as a 3 - 0 loss.

[dingdong]

you would think so

[GJ23]

Well apparently, that's how it works.

[hawk]

Just a thought, if Muswellbrook forfeit next Saturday would they still go through as only goes down as a 3 - 0 loss.

That's another strike against this finals format. Is a there a rule enforcing games must be played?

[GJ23]

They'd be playing in the Grand Final at The "Mutual Ground"

:violin::violin:

[pv4]

Just a thought, if Muswellbrook forfeit next Saturday would they still go through as only goes down as a 3 - 0 loss.

my thinking is a two-game-aggregate-match is a single game played over two sets of 90mins. so forfeiting 1/2 of the overall match (ie one of the games) would force you to forfeit the entire match. i haven't read any rules to tell me that's how it works though.

pretty sure there was a big convo about this somewhere a few years ago when milan were 4-0 up on aggregate v arsenal after match uno (paging gary fish?) and there were questions raised of could milan just forfeit & win, or if they somehow found themselves 5-0 down could they get a bunch of reds and be forced-to-forfeit & still progress.

i would say (1) it wouldn't be allowed, and a forfeit would forfeit the entire final, & (2) mussy convinvincly smashed the opposition, they'll probably have no issues doing likewise this upcoming weekend and it'll probably be better for them to have a hitout rather than a week off.

gj - editing posts 6-10 hours after op makes your posts look even more ridiculous and looking like waffle.

[RANGER09]

S.P website has ZL 1,2&3 GF all on Sunday 16th, our original draw has Sat 15th for ZL2, can anyone confirm the correct dates? Thanks!

[the_butcher]

That's another strike against this finals format. Is a there a rule enforcing games must be played?

What are the other strikes against this format? I thought everyone was happy with it?

Personally I like the new format. It gives all teams a fair chance of progressing as the better team over two legs deserves to go through. Any team can lose a one off game, especially if conditions such as the weather arent conducive to playing football (eg semi finals a few years back when light towers etc were getting blown over!). Ive played in teams that have been knocked out of the semis when we have clearly been the better team, this format prevents that from happening as best as possible.

A simple solution to the forfeiting scenario is to do exactly what PV4 said: Both legs must be played or the offending team is disqualified. Pretty simple really.

I dont think any team would forfeit anyway. At the end of the day we sign up and pay rego to play football, not sit on our arses. I think we'd all rather play then have an easier passage through to the grand final.

pretty wells said. the system was brought in to provide a better opportunity for smaller clubs to make a profit hosting another home semi.
at the district meeting i was at which was held at the start of the year all clubs in attendance thought it was a good idea.
I know alot of ppl complain that it takes away the advantage of coming 1st because u dont have a second chance if you lose but realistically a team that finishes first has the advantage as they should beat a 4th place team over 180 minutes

Refs laughing???
WTF! The Ref did a great job today, fair on both teams I'd say..
I know you weren't drunk, we all saw you drinking soft drink all day.

This was a good game to watch with some good football played. I agree the ref did a great job and should be commended for the way he handled the game. The penalty was the right call, definite trip by the Terrace defender. I could hear the terrace keeper getting stuck into the defender for tripping the olympic player. That was funny. The return leg will be interesting as i think the terrace have the momentum plus they have home ground advantage. Olympic need to focus on playing football not trying to con the referee for soft fouls and freekicks. This is there best chance of winning. Good luck to both teams.

[roundballsarebetter]

Unfortuantly olympic really needed to come away from the 1st leg with a win..... I can see raymond terrace Scoring 3-4 at the largest field in the comp this weekend..

a number of those you have deleted after posting them. I never have started rumours about hamilton and i dont beleive the rumours you have started are done in a 'respectable manner'.

If your going to keep starting rumours and deleting those comments Im going to stand by the comments above. They (your false rumours) arent doing either club any good.

Embarrassing for both clubs

[GJ23]

After having a look at 'True waterboys' posting history in this thread it seems to me that u r one massive sook. Honestly mate all your posts is u complaining about something. . Dont sit here and cry wolf everytime something happens that u dont agree with mate.
i play for olympic and i played ressies against u blokes and it was a good fair game but when i went on for 1st grade thats when i started getting abused by all the ressie players after they had their couple cans of courage. All good though i got no issue with it, im not complaining i copped it but just deal it with it in person if you have an issue not on a computer. :grin:

[true waterboy]

didnt see ressies. would someone be able to post the scores?

firsts terrace v hamo
2-0
I thought the scoreboard reflected the game. hamo were unlucky not to get a penalty. I thought it was an obvious one however probs even as they got a soft one in leg 1.
Hamo in the first half looked very lack luster. they looked really good in the first half last week however didnt press in defence and allowed terrace to play from the back putting little pressure on the backs/mids of terrace. I was expecting to see hamo to come out the stronger but it wasnt the case.
second half was alot better from both teams and the game sparked into life after terrace went 1-0 up. a few players probably lucky they didnt get carded but only one tackle i saw all game had malice in it.
number 21 from hamo showed some class a number of times but was really the only one that looked like he could spark something for hamo and maybe score (came very close twice).

I thought the standard of the game was very poor. Both sides looked very ordinary. In the first 25mins terrace only survived because somehow Olympics attack was even worse than terraces defense! Terrace were very one dimensional, looking long at every opportunity. It made for a pretty boring affair that saw a few cars leave before half time.

Anyway, let's hope the gf is a more exciting match!

Massive congratulations to Raymond terrace, minor premiers and grand finalists, well done fellas.
Condolences to Olympic, they played some good football throughout the season and made a good contest of the finals.

Reserve grade
Muswellbrook 5 Belmont 0
Belmont had a great chance inside the first minute forcing a fantastic double save from mussy keeper. From that point on it was all one way traffic.

[RANGER09]

Thanks Butcher, and congrats to your ressies, undefeated going into the GF next week well done!
It was a pretty scrappy game today with neither side finding their rythym, a few injuries to our guys made it hard to play to our potential, hopefully guys will bounce back and fire up for next week.
Well done to Olympic boys for getting as far as they did, good finish to the second half of the season!
Congrats to our guys for holding in there and making it to the GF next week! massive result considering where we have finished in last few seasons, last GF was back in 2007 which we won so enjoy your week and prepare for a massive game next Sat!
Good luck to both teams playing tomorrow looking forward to playing whoever makes it through!

Have to agree with the butcher..... One dimensional long balls were the order of the day.... Even from olympic which certainly did not suit the way they like to play....... Terrace need to be very wary if they play the long ball style that they like to play at home at the smaller olympic field they will find it hard to score against a team that will mark out te 2 fellas up front

[Swanky]

Great season by the Olympic boys did well after getting promoted last season
Congrats to Terrace deserved Minor Premiers and done well in the 2 legs deserved Grand Finalists Good Luck goin for the double next week u deserve it

[roundballsarebetter]

I noticed alot of yellow cards for rayt yesterday bout 4 I think ...... Anyone pick up their 2nd and is suspended next week Ranger????

[pv4]

made the tough decision to head to belmont instead of wanderers. rolled up for fulltime of reserves - and I'm guessing jesmond are through, judging from the claps.

[pv4]

midway through first half & the cats score. Belmont need at least 3 to make the big game now.

tough nuts & we love it, etc

btw Belmont look hopeless apart from throw ins

[pv4]

still 1-0 to cats halfway through second half.

from a Belmont perspective - the ref is biased. from a football perspective - elbows in the back consistently deserve a foul.

cheers for the updates pv

So as it currently stands
First gf: terrace vs west lakes
Res gf: muswellbrook vs jesmond

Can anyone confirm?

[pv4]

yep jesmond won, confirmed.

belmont don't look like even scoring 1, let alone 3.

a little overconfidence looks to have put the cats into the final at the mutual ground. what's the : code for the violin?

[pv4]

belmont resorting to long ball and their big #9 tries to start a biff. how does an illiterate Foz member properly spell the word "desperation"?

btw big #9 got a yellow.

[pv4]

finished 1-0.

that's 2-0 on aggregate, to all the haters.

see y'all at the mutual ground next week.

[true waterboy]

good game for the cats today. we didnt play at our best but were good enough for the win.
thanks to belmont, was a good day and always enjoy playing you guys always a strong game.

Was a good result in that the best two teams over the year will be playing in the grand final.
cant wait to play on a mutual field. GJ23 I know you guys will put on a good day for us saturday, hopefully we can put on a good spectacle for you :).

well done to both teams. definately a rare scenario. will be a good game.
No disrepect to jeso but go mussy as I thought they were the class act of the ressies comp (or best team)

[pv4]

have been reminded that last year Belmont forfeited a game which cost Westlakes a semis spot. little bit of what goes around comes around for them, maybe.

Hey round balls, I think we have one out, can only hope the ref didn't put it on the team sheet ;) I'm guessing we will receive notification thru the mail this week!

personally im not a fan of refs not submitting cards (we even submitted the red that our club ref gave out), however I know there are a number of them refuse to submit reports and therefore find it easier to leave them out

Yeah will be a shame as he has only played a handful of games this season due to injury, I'm sure he will be giving plenty of support for our boys from the sideline!

Gets his passion from his brothers lol. I have played in teams with all of them and all good players, he came to play along side his mates this season so hopefully they will stick around and bring a few more of their Mates with them next season!

I know les got a yellow in the first leg, I hope for terraces sake he didn't get one in the second! I remember in the first half of Saturdays game he made a 30 metre run to have words with the ref about a decision, could have been disastrous if the ref had shown him the cheese. No disrespect to terrace but without les they would struggle big time.

Les never got a 2nd yellow and his 1st goal was a screamer on Saturday he is real class and a true gentleman as were the Terrace team on a whole they towled us up during the season twice and we gave them a run over 2 legs and all 4 games were played in good spirit and the Terrace boys brought in a few boys for the Olympic players after the game on Saturday.
Good Luck on the Weekend in the Grand Final

[roundballsarebetter]

Any one wanna have a stab at 1st grade result........ Mine is 3.1 to westlakes...... As much as olympic will hate this result I think westlakes are a much better team and a defensive unit that The terrace who are very shaky at the back. Im sure That westlakes have figured it out by now but man mark the 2 blokes up front out of the game and they will win comfortably.......... Westlakes defense and gk will need to be top of their game to not give raymond terrace a chance

1-0 to terrace at half time.

for whoever said the striker(s) for terrace should be in aleague:
1. lol, no.
2. pretty sure aleague players need to be drug tested

[Ram Raider]

Good idea for a grand final at darling street. Out of full strength beer half way through the first half of 1sts. Joke. And 1 - 1 nOw.

[pv4]

agreed, discrace. also the opposite side of the field is barred off, like expected. ridiculous choice for a final (snitzel burgers aside).

[pv4]

widcats score 2-1

[pv4]

final result 2-1.

2 leg aggregate win, grand final win, fxxx the haterz.

btw I've seen one week of terrace & two weeks of Belmont, and I have no idea what they showed in the season to warrant 1st & 2nd.

also, terrace striker in aleague - fxxxing lol

[pv4]

btw mutual ground, yewwwwww!

[true waterboy]

congrats to mussy (and us). The best two teams in their comps won on the day which is what you want to see.

Out of curiosity what was the award jeso was presented with before the first grade preso?

Gj23 can you say thanks to who ever runs the ground for us was definately a good pitch. Shame the crowd couldnt go round the other side as pv4 said but the atmosphere was great esp from the mussy and cats supporters. great to see.
Anyways off to celebrate with the boys. thanks to all the teams and look forward to playing you all again next year. goodluck to terrace in ID1 next year.

[pv4]

Not sure when so many people turned into muppets on this thread but fmd its amazing what a few beers will do to people…… spose it dont matter what i say as most of that bs posted on here yesterday will get moderated as im pretty sure you cant accuse someone of being on drugs in a public forum........ Very interesting that it wasnt said to his face but behind a phone on a website........ Very ordinary.….… anyway to the game , as i said earlier terrace would struggle with a lack of room to play a long ball and thats how it panned out, they got a goal against the run of play from a top finish from a half chance which is why Mr wallace is the best striker in this comp. TBH if westlakes were a bit more composed in the attacking 3rd the result could have been 3 or4 to 1

[pv4]

pretty sure the entire crowd, the whole time, said it to him.

anyway good game, cats will walk it next year I'm predicting.

As pv4 said the crowd joked with lez bout it during tge game n he had a laugh. I think ppl read too much into these jokes but it was good to see a number of the terrace boys/cats have a joke after the game. If u heard the captains speech you would have heard some more of these jokes n also would of heard the westlakes players cheer for a back flip when lez won his award.

I agree with your match report. We should of went into half time winning but kept hitting the bar.

Dungog is looking for a certain trial against a ZL2 team for mid January.
Looking more towards terrace, medowie or any other teams with some " pace".
Let me know if interested. Cheers

Road trip to Muswellbrook?

[Youaskedforit]

With toronto awaba juniors entering a team in id3 next year, could be only a matter of time before we revive the good old Toronto Awaba v Westlakes local derby .... Commonly known back in the day as " kill a cat day " ;)

[ManUTDSupporter]

Road trip to Muswellbrook?

Haha maybe a neutral ground halfway?

I can feel a Toronto Awaba ID v Westlakes ID pre season game in the wings, maybe for a shield annually, maybe a Stevy Fennell cup ( he did start with the stags ) or better still a JB Cup .
