Uni the only ZPL team to crash out. Barnsley with the upset of the comp so far.
Suburbs went close against a very strong Dudley.
Muswellbrook nearly did pulled off the biggest upset but fell short in pens.

All in all, the results went fairly well as expected.

Outcome of the game may have been entirely different if there was provision for extra time rather than straight to pens too!

[The Spy]

This is correct

[Kicktheball]

I heard it was the bero ZPL reserve and 3rd grade teams filling in.

[The Spy]

I heard it was the bero ZPL reserve and 3rd grade teams filling in.

According to the Bero players on the field, there were 5 first graders missing, as were the bay. Bero probably had 317 shots in the first 30 minutes, most of them landing on field 3 on the 6-a-side.

What happens with the draw now? Are the NPL and NewFM placed into one pot and the others in the other pot? Or will it be everyone into the one pot and see what happens?

[MonkeyKplunk]

What happens with the draw now? Are the NPL and NewFM placed into one pot and the others in the other pot? Or will it be everyone into the one pot and see what happens?

Going off previous years, NPL and NewFM should be one pot, and everyone else in the other.
Once they run out of NPL/NewFM teams to choose from, the remainder are all drawn from the one pot.

[Bremsstrahlung]

Should be all into one pot.
Otherwise its a waste of time even doing a draw.

[Nou Camp]

everyone in one pot!!!
its cup football FFS

[LongSufferingFan]

I am sure in round 2 its only the NewFM teams that enter the draw.
The NPL teams don't come in until round 3.

I think the draw from now on is completely random (ie one pot), although I think the top 4 NPL sides are seeded so that they can't meet each other in round 3.

I was going off last year's Round 2.
Last year NewFM + Zone were drawn from one pot for Round 1, and then all the NPL teams were drawn and seeded against the first 9 matchups drawn.
http://northernnswfootball.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/Round-1-Westfield-FFA-Cup-Fixtures-Southern-Pool.pdf

They changed things this year obviously, so maybe it is NewFM and everyone in one pot this round and then NPL seeded against them for Round 3?

Can confirm Round 1 Zone league teams, Round 2 NewFM join, Round 3 NPL join. Top 4 seeded NPL teams will be in a seperate pot as to not draw each other.

I am with everyone, just chuck all teams in and do a random draw!

Gunna have some busy schedules for teams as they play weekend games, the inevitable wash outs we'll have the next few weeks & cup games

4-1, they were too good on the night.

I think argenton and kahibah will both suprise a few teams in zl2. Someone tipped argenton to finish 9th in zl2, they will finish much higher then that.
May even push a few higher clubs in ffa cup too.

[LongSufferingFan]

This is a really interesting round of FFA Cup football.
For the first time we have a large number of NewFM teams coming up against Zone league opposition with all clubs in season and will (hopefully) take the game seriously and play at full strength.

How many of the 7 match ups will go the way of the NewFM teams and how many will go to ZL?
These results should give a good indication of where NewFM is in relation to ZL.

I'm tipping ZL teams (Jesmond, Terrace, Suns, Argy) to win 4 of these games and NewFM teams (Kahibah, New Lambton Cooks Hill) to win 3.

This will be a really good match. Wallsend have built a solid team over 3 yrs and Argie are going to push promotion this yr.
I know higher graded teams battling it out but there is something about this one I like. IMO, a good measure of the gap or lack of in zl1 to zl2.

Terrace V Thornton
2-2
Pens 3-5 Thornton go through.

[Charman]

Dudley vs Redhead (for those who don't get it that it's 2 different clubs)
11-1. Redhead led 1-0 after 5. Dudley made it 1-1 after 7. Stayed like that until around 30 mins. 4-1 1/2 time. Dudley class capitalised on a couple errors in the back as expected at that level. Very fast paced half. Dudley scored 5 in a 15 min session after 1/2 time. Redhead boys did proud. Score does not reflect the effort. I'll say some simple errors at the very back cost us 5 goals. Read into that what you like. Entertaining game in pretty ordinary weather. Was played in good spirits, no injuries and we move on to what's important now.
Have heard argie 2 wallsend 2, unsure on pen result. Kahibah newfm 4 edgie zl3 0. Both bloody good results.

[leftrightout]

4-0 is a good effort for a L3 team vs NEWFM.

Heard Wallsend were a bit lucky winning in pens?

[Shere Khan]

How's Stockton looking?

[evolution]

Heard Wallsend were a bit lucky winning in pens?

Very lucky!

Good effort from Argy seeing as they are 2 divisions below. Argy were 1-0 up after a couple of minutes, and 2-0 up midway through the second half. Wallsend got an ugly goal with around 10 to go, and then equalised with close to the last kick of the game. Wallsend missed the first penalty but came through and won it in the end.

[Macca]

I thought it was the Newfm Wallsend team? Which would be 4 divisions below

[evolution]

I thought it was the Newfm Wallsend team? Which would be 4 divisions below

I think we are both wrong lol

Wallsend are NEWFM and Argy are ZP2... so three divisions? (NEWFM > ZPL > ZP1 > ZP2)

Either way, Argy punched above their weight.

[Passtheballmate]

Not a bad result for the Terrace boys considering they got pumped by Bero in ZL1 only 2 weeks ago.

It was a great match I'd say we stepped up, not sure if it was all Thornton first grade but they did have majority from what I could tell.
0-0 at half time both teams had chances to score but a mixture of poor finishing and great keeping kept it even. Second half Thornton got out to a 2-0 lead then one of our young fellas came on scored one set up the second. As I said before we hit the post really late and could have snatched it. Midfield was a good tussle we have some very talented players in our middle who wouldn't look out of place higher up the grades.

Surely the penalties alone can just be replayed? The same players and same order as what would have been handed to the referee last night?

That would just be a bit weird wouldn't it? You show up to the ground, an hour before kick-off, get ready, warm up, kick the ball once (maybe twice if your lucky), and then one team gets to sing the team song.

[Stryker]

teams dont provide a list anymore. either way i doubt just replaying penalty kicks will be allowed. not the first time the lights have gone out during a game in local football

[pv4]

There is only one way to settle this - a two-man sack race held on consecutive Sundays until a winner is declared.

For anyone who doesn't know the reference:

[pv4]

But seriously isn't there rules about games that haven't entered the second half but cut off for some reason being declared a result rather than a replay? Or if called off in first half it is a replay? There's something like that, yes? Or is my memory gone more than I realise?

If Cooks Hill were winning, shouldn't they be declared winners?

Some would say penalty shootouts are a "coin toss" anyway. Maybe it should be decided by a coin. Maybe a chocolate coin, get into the Easter Spirit. And the winner gets to eat the coin, and advance thru to the cup.

4-4 Stocko v New Lambton

Shame we didn't get the result against New Lambton last night. Up 4-2 before a pen and then the most ridiculous back pass call I've ever seen resulted in the equaliser late. NL through on Pens. Good to show we can match it with a decent NewFM side. Hopefully carry that form into the league.

Not sure where the penalties were up to, but I would have thought, if both sides had taken say three penalties and Cookers were leading 3-2 , then lights went out it should be a cookers win, if there was an extra penalty taken by either side when lights went out or penalties were even after same amount of penalties taken , it should be replayed.

Imagine being 3-1 up in the penalties and lights went out haha

Betting syndicates rumoured to be responsible

[Retro Jet]

I've been involved with football for a long time now and last night will go down
as one of the most bizarre situations in a game I've borne witness too
(apart from John Kosmina choking Harry James...)

Swansea keeper saved 1st Cookers kick. Cookers keeper saved Swansea's 3rd.
Cookers 5th kicker scores for 4-3 and then one level of lighting went out. I think the
ref was deliberating with our keeper about the lighting for the 5th kick when BOOM...all out.
Players milled around in the middle having a larf and after 10? minutes, ref blew 3 pips for FT.
Match abandoned.
Players were walking off and the lights came back on. Too funny.

Latest I heard from our Secretary was Wed, April 26th as a possible/probable replay date.
3rd Rnd draw will be done regardless and will most likely be:-
'Winner Swansea/Cooks Hill' vs ?????? scenario.
No idea on venue but hoping we get the game...especially after our non pre season at home with that
track being laid. No timers on the lights either :wink:
Track nearly finished now. Dudes laying the rubber rebound layer over Easter
to get the job done before April 22nd (home v Thornton)

Cred to Swansea for their effort. Hardest game we've had this season.
Suns, look out!

[Hardly Watching]

Kinda makes sense to call the game if the ref deems it unplayable. In a normal situation if something like 70% of the game has been played whatever the score is, stays as is. However Penalties must be a different story.

I would imagine NNSW would keep it at the same venue, a bit ludicrous if they change grounds just to suit 1 team. Could seem them having it at Speers Point though. (to suit them).

Cooks Hill will just have to find other ways to boost revenue, let the same ground host it again, if it was good enough once it will be good enough again.

And if that was Cookers hardest game? I don't rate their chances going forward in either comp.

And Stags losing to Suns? Did anyone expect any different, even with Redman in goals, it's still a leaky ship.

[Shere Khan]

Mayfield V Simba?

[Roundball Enthusiast]

Mayfield V Simba?

3-0 Mayfield. From what I was told, I only saw the last goal.

Only watched 15-20, but Mayfield looked a class above, Simba certainly had 1-2 GOOD chances to put 1-2 in, but just the finishing lacking.
Mayf keeper made a great free kick save late in the second half. Premier league stuff.

Victorian NPL teams have been in the last 2 rounds in the Victorian FFA cup. The game you are talking about was round 5 and NPL teams come in at round 4 final 64 teams so there are no byes and it's an open draw anyone can draw anyone

[ForeverRed]

but who can answer my question, surely it's extra or not for all involved

[Roundball Enthusiast]

Dudley v Garden Suburb went straight to Pens, no ET. That was R1 though, not sure if it changes..

Each Federation has its own rules till the final 32
Victoria does have extra time from Qualifying rounds to the last round.

[ForeverRed]

Doesn't make sense, teams are qualifying under different rules

[Stryker]

Possibly a reason down to scheduling. Nnsw tend to have multiple games on same ground like the first year at speers pt. if games went to et it would b a nightmare. I think vic cup have stand alone games. I agree the rules need to be the same across the board from the beginning

Valentine were the last team left. Could have been any of those 19 teams aside from the seeded teams.

A few good matches. There's 2 ZPL clashes, 1 NPL and 1 NewFM clash. Not sure if we will see any upsets in the other match ups, but here's hoping!

If cooks hill get through I'm tipping them to beat Weston

[Sir]

If cooks hill get through I'm tipping them to beat Weston

If they lose to Swansea, you are tipping Weston?
Or is that just a biased comment?

[MFKS]

If they lose to Swansea, you are tipping Weston?
Or is that just a biased comment?

I thought FR meant that Weston are not the strongest NPL side and Cooks Hill are a very strong New FM side and he thinking Cooks Hill would get the win in a possible match up

Exactly what you think he meant??

[ForeverRed]

It's not that hard gents

[Dontknowmuch]

It's not that hard gents

So Swansea have a better chance of beating Cooks Hill than Weston do?

[Bremsstrahlung]

I don't think he really cares/commented on that game.
The comment was, if cooks hill beat Swansea (to get to that point) he thinks they could beat Weston.

Wasn't that hard really, does show the gap between 1st and 2nd division but, all be it they are four of the top NPL sides.

Still shake my head at some talented kids who get brain washed and get told they are better off playing First grade in 2nd division rather then work your guts out in U20 / First Grade NPL

In saying that, Cookers and Thornton will give NPL a real shake tonight.

Unfortunately azzurri have massive injury toll, so they might struggle

Back to back Premiers got rolled 8-0 by a good NPL side

You would struggle to find the top 11 players from wallsend still in the squad from the last 2 years. They are spread out amongst kahibah and belswans theses days

[Hotline]

Wallsend aren't exactly setting the comp on fire this year, they are sitting in the bottom half of the table. Let's see how cookers and thornton go tonight before passing judgement.

They weren't premiers anyway they were grand final winners back to back (still a very good achievement). The premiers from last year are doing reasonably well in the NPL this year with a similar team to last year.

[Zico]

Even worse when you see that these NPL sides had a decent number of 20's playing.

Pathetic really

I think it just shows how out of touch nnsw are. The results make the federation look stupid, not so much the clubs.
There is no doubt that the npl has the 11 best teams. But does the new fm league contain the next 11?? I think everyone knows the answer. In their wisdom nnsw locked each division in for 3 years, so I guess it wont change much for a while.

They should also scrap age restrictions on reserve grade for all divisions. Good enough then your old enough.

[Nou Camp]

I think it looks even worse for newfm when you compare their results against lower division teams
has it always been this way?? or is it just recently

[LongSufferingFan]

Scores show really how poor the NewFM really is

Pathetic really

Wallsend are only a shadow of the team from the last two years so not a good comparison to make.

Lakes were the standout team in NewFM last year (across all grades) and are holding their own at NPL level this year with just the addition of a few Maitland rejects.
Some of their lower grades are also doing very well (15s and 18s) which is impressive given they have all had to make the step up.

There are some quality players running around in NewFM unfortunately not enough in most teams to hold it together against NPL opposition.

Be interesting to see a game between say Kahibah or New Lambton against Jets Youth to compare quality.

Drop back and play with mates and enjoy themselves, or stay in the so called promised land of NPL and get what from it... some players leave for a variety of reasons

drop back and help out a struggling local club or stay and get pushed to 20s to stock the club up... matter of opinions

What a ridicolous statement.

Lake Macquarie has a majority of NewFm players from last year, Valentine have plenty as well.

So you consider getting beat by 8 as accceptable ??


Just remember their only one divsion between the clubs

You dont see EPL sides beating Championship sides by 8 in the FACup

You at least expect the lesser side to play with some pride and keep the scoreboard respectful

You dont even see the A League sides towelling the NPL sides to this extent


To me thst is a pretty piss weak effort from the side conceeding 8 and a reflection of the mediocrity in NewFM

the fact is the npl has the best first graders, the best under 20s and u18s theres not much left for newfm, its not nnswf who have it wrong, their only going by ffa rules,

They also ended up at 10 men that day but let's not let that get in the way of your rant

You serious ? Lisle Carr copped a torrential down pour about 4.30pm to which the field was under water at 5.30pm, refs inspection at 6.30 went very close to calling it off, you have no idea.

And as I say there was 7 U20 players in that side, with Jaffas only missing remo ( I think ) , was only 1-0 when SP took off cassa and sulini after 65

Actually, its ok they get called a newfm side, last time we got called that, we beat jets 4-1 closely followed by magic and Olympic victories in six days ???

BTW - Isnt Mervan a Donkey ???

I be tearing into them

Thing is that ain't happening anytime soon

I usually go watch a New FM game or two a season

The lower grades are a right hoot where it looks like a blind man with one leg could beat them whilst in a sack and carrying an egg on a spoon

I've been tossing up whether I should post this at all, but here it is.

Calling our boys (Wallsend) efforts "pathetic really" (ZICO) and "lacking pride" (MKFS) is something I will not let fly. The guys played on Sunday and coming to Magic Park on a Tuesday night was always going to be a tough day at the office. Up until the 65th minute it was 3-0, that's where Magics bye on the weekend would have came in handy, they were well rested, fitter, sharper and moved the ball around very well, constantly attacking. We were simply outclassed by a very good team (starting 11: Mackenzie, Foteff, Paddington, Griffiths, L. Virgili, Kantarovski, Hoole, Bradbery, J. Virgili, Pettit, Fajkovic). A well rested top team in the division above ours with a player budget x4 ours should always do well.
We had a 17yr old make his 1st grade debut in right back and played the full game, and also a 16 year old who played 33mins up front running against the likes of Piddo. Both of these young fellas will always remember the time they played at Magic Park against Broadmeadow Magic in a Cup game. I'm proud of the boys, their efforts and this great club.
Not once in any of either MKFS or ZICOs posts did either of you say anything positive about the performance of the club you apparently support.
If either of you would like to pass on some of your football genius to us here at Wallsend, my names Dan, my details are easy to find, and I'm always open to advice and assistance on what we can be doing better here.
All the best for the FFA Cup and the NPL Broadmeadow Magic, you were great hosts, the facilities were top touch and you made us feel very welcome.

Some of the alleged skill sets of players in New FM is ridiculous and shouldn't be tolerated at all

if you guys knew the truth about this character you wouldn't arc up at his nonsensical angry rants and would just sit back and laugh

yeah it's a bit crap that NEW FM teams didn't progress this season, but there's a lot of luck in cup football and (although I wasn't there and admittedly me and my sources will be a little biased), the leading NEW FM team should have accounted for a mid table NBN team in this latest round but things didn't fall our way

most NEW FM teams will see the chance to test themselves against a higher opposition as something very beneficial - something to learn from and grow from and as a way to improve

if blokes who love ranting-rather-than-doing want to troll you over that, then let them go for it - we don't judge them by their success in life, or by what they do for a living, or how much they've achieved in the clubs they run, why should we give them the validity when they spew forth their hatreds?

[Tonester]

Slow down Tonester was just having a pop at Magic getting flogged at the weekend

Got his Lambton and New Lambton mixed up in his haste to dazzle us with his wits

I don't care what others say about you your okay in my opinion. Very observant.

[Gelato]

Predictions for tomorrow night guys?

[hamburgler]

Is the next round on June long weekend played at Coffs Harbour or Speers Point?

[Shere Khan]

6 from Nnsw and 2 from North Coast to play down to final 2 on June long weekend is what I heard.

[Lofty]

6 from Nnsw and 2 from North Coast to play down to final 2 on June long weekend is what I heard.

If the 4 winners of that round are all from Newcastle, then the next round of final 4 will be played mid week so that the teams have more than 1 day rest. If one of the north coast teams win, then I think they will have to play on the Monday.

I must give a big shout out to those blokes from New FM New Lambton who showed a bit of pride in the shirt and could hold Magic to 3-0

Well done boys. Good to see someone from New FM actually show some fight in the comp

Just to show what pride can do teams lower in the chain than New FM didn't capitulate to 8-0 losses tonight

Suns fell 4-2 after leading late on
Cardiff even knocked off a NPL side I'm Lakes


Well done to these clubs showing PRIDE in their shirts and PRIDE in their club not meekliy accepting hidings from the bigger sides

[ForeverRed]

Great win by Cardiff Tigers

Spot on. It's as if the further you get into a knockout competition the better the teams are. It's crazy.

What was the coin difference on field? Love cup football.

No shout from MFKS about Cookers? Though we had a good shot at it v Weston.

I thought I was talking mainly about the New FM clubs getting rolled by 8 and finding the loss acceptable

Cooks Hill sticking it to Weston isn't the greatest thing to brag about

Weston are basically U20 side more or less full of young kids that they are trying to turn into a competent team in a few years time

Go watch them play NPL and they are a bit off the pace and will finish bottom 3

Good draw for Cardiff! Is the draw then re-done at the semi final stage or are the 'brackets' sorted (I've been watching the NBA)?

There will be another draw. If either Coffs or Byron win, then there will be games played on the Monday. If all local teams win, the 4 teams left will play locally on Wednesday night.

[LongSufferingFan]

So the NPL has a break this weekend for the FFA Cup games yet NL1 have a full round of games.
Is someone psychic or is it obvious that no NL1 teams would make the final 8?

[LongSufferingFan]

I must say I am keen to watch some of the games this Saturday - some interesting match ups.

My tips:
Coffs City v Cardiff City
Byron Bay v Maitland
Lambton v Edgeworth
Valo v Magic

None of the Zone leagues have games either.

You reckon after this rain we get much action this weekend anyway??

Northern be probably looking to protect the carpet at Speers Point as well

[Lofty]

Can't imagine there will be much of a crowd willing to stand in the rain tomorrow to watch the games..

One of the worst places to watch a game regardless of the rain.

If either Byron or Coffs get up, it's means the next round of games will be played Monday. Don't know how many local boys will be stoked about that haha

You would think Coffs should be good enough to dispatch a Zone side so it highly likely we get games on Monday

[Reds Forever]

Will both games be played Monday if only one visiting team gets up tomorrow?

[Stryker]
