I am personally a fan Zico. The ones who come out the other side, would be the only ones who have a slight chance against the state leagurs teams etc.

Why can't they go back to random draw where id teams can draw nbn teams?

NNSWF have fallen for the political correct bullshit that is all to common these days. We are dealing with grown men for **** sake not children. If your side isn't good enough to make it to the next round against a side you are drawn against then you don't deserve to be there.

more to do with clubs using it as a pre-season thing than anything else

ideally you'd have an FA Cup style first few rounds for lower divisions, with the higher grades coming in later - that just isn't possible as zone league teams aren't sorted before the state competitions start

it's amateur football after all, so let's just have a bit of fun with a knock out tournament before jumping on our high horses

up for grabs.

I agree it's a farce. The spot in the FFA Cup thats up for grabs means that the Fed should have done a full and complete draw.

Mate couldn't agree more. When the comp started in 2010 Muswellbrook were in the old ID3. First round we drew Suns two divisions above and beat them 4-2. In the Second Round we got drawn against Weston who at the time were top of NBN and had just flogged Olympic the week before. Top of NBN vs. top of ID3, complete mismatch. We couldn't possibly be keener than we were for the match. After keeping them scoreless for. 30 mins we eventually lost 4-0 against a Weston team that fielded majority 1st Graders which surprised us, the boys got to play against quality players and to be honest it felt like a win on the night that we didn't get embarrassed. We obviously weren't good enough to beat them and never would have, but it was a great experience that the majority of the boys would never have gotten without the cup. Weston walked away with no injuries, we walked away feeling pretty good and not depressed, no hard done at all.

I guess the moral in that story is that we didn't feel cheated or hard done by drawing Weston, we embraced it and we gave them a harder run than anyone expected given our respective levels.

Why can't they go back to random draw where id teams can draw nbn teams?

The draws must be separated as Northern have a promised a guaranteed makeup of 1 team from the northern zones, one for Hunter ID Zones and two from their own competitions.

If the draws were mixed then it is unlikely they would obtain such a mix.

anyone keen to have a stab at picking the first round? obviously with 4 divisions in the ZL many will be just stabs in the dark (the best kind)...

Mayfield United v Westlakes - no clue really..higher division safe choice
Belmont Tingira v Uni ZL2 - on penalties?
Morriset v Nelson Bay - too much quality if they retained most of their squad

Kotara Sth v Beresfield FC - unless kotara put out the best they have to offer, it will be tight :yap:
New Lambton Eagles v Simba - simba would be difficult to play, strong coming forward, defence may let them down against quality like NL
Cooks Hill ZL3 v Barnsley - too strong
Cooks Hill ZPL v CCB - no idea again..safety first

Dudley Redhead Utd ZL3 v Medowie FC - uneducated guess?
Merewether Advance v Muswellbrook - if they travel well
Garden Suburb v Dudley Redhead SFC - good pickups for burbs from what I've heard (more than likely wrong)

Uni ZPL v RAAF - another safety pick...
Platsburgg v Swansea - plattsy were good last year, but so were swansea
Wallsend v Cardiff - another club that 'seems' to have recruited well

Dungog v Mayfield Utd JFC ZL3 - i actually have no idea...at all
Jesmond FC v Hamilton Olympic - the move to ZL1 should see them pickup a few, Olympic were blasted in Rd 1 last year
Tenambit v Stockton - too strong, sorry blacky...:arse:

Kurri Kurri v Raymond Terrace - terrace have allegedly lost a few, kurri play with a fair bit of :sparring: will be tight
Toronto Awaba JFC v Newcastle Suns - if anybody seen Rd 1 last year and how well prepared the suns were when they played Barnsley...yeah, goals...lots of goals:popcorn:
Beresfield United ZL1 v Warners Bay - gotta pick one with your heart right? wishful thinking may have also played a part... :whistling:

I'm not going to bother with the State League/ NewFM cause really I know nothing about those comps and how well prepared the sides are... like some of these predictions, they'd just be guesses! hopefully nobody is offended I didn't pick their club to win, my opinion doesn't really mean shit...haha

Good Luck EVERYBODY!!!

So with Toronto no longer playing in ZL3 are the sun's given a free pass to the next round or will the team given the bye ( can't for the life of me remember who it was) take there spot and face the sun's??

I spoke to 2 guys from Toronto's Over35s team "The Slugs" on the weekend and apparently they have been asked to take Toronto ID3s position in the State Cup. So Suns will be playing against the O35s team of Toronto.

If that is the case that is just down right ridiculous. Why do that when there is a team not playing due to a bye. If it has something to do with numbers then either send sun's thru or luck of the draw in round two who gets the bye.

I agree...the tips will be close. I think Magic and Olympic will go close to reaching double digits if they play anywhere near their full strength sides in their favourable draws. Edgy could rack up a score against Westy if they have enough players to play. Has anyone heard where Westy are at? I heard they are in huge crisis with Greg Smith leaving? I also believe Maitland will be too strong for Southy as will Azzuri be for Lakes. Looking forward to watching some competitive matches.

Maybe if Greg Smith retained players that were at the club or actively recruited players to the club they wouldn't be in this situation and now he is leaving. Laughable, isn't a key part of a coaches job the retention and recruitment of players ? Other peoples thoughts

Was stupid to not show the "hat" that they were being "drawn" from. Only opens them up to accusations of doing the dodgy.

Biggest rort of a draw I have ever witnessed,it looks like the team names are face up on a table and he actually looks sometimes to be scanning the names to decide who to pick out to play the first team chosen in a match. Very poor

Nelson Bay vs Morisset same as the round 1 draw as last year. what are the chances of drawing the same teams for round 1 out 2 years in a row? in the inter district pool group (34 teams)

It may be late and I may be tired but I am under the impression getting the same draw 2 years in a row is more along the lines of 1/(34*34)

GazFish35
20-02-2014, 10:49 PM
If you nominate the team before the first draw, yes. As it's that 1 team from 34 the first time and again the second time

If you're simply looking at the odds if getting the same team as last year, it's only 1/34 as it doesn't matter who you had last year so long as you got them this year. 34/34*1/34


Though if there's 34 teams in the pool, you can't get drawn against you're sled, so it's actually 1/33



The odds of Rolling 2 sixes in a row, is not the same as rolling any number, and then rolling that same number again.

ok professors thanks for the maths lesson. This is pointing out the process of how the draw is conducted and asking questions if drawn out of a hat how the individual has pulled out a 3% outcome? by the look at the draw the hat has been fixed and i am calling Shenanigans. A solution to clear how random the draw actually is have a better view of how the draw is conducted when filming for the next round

Co-incidences occur in life... We all should be happy we have the opportunity to participate in this event. When coincidences occur in the champions league or UEFA cup teams just get on with it, and anyways what does it say for the organisation of our clubs and competitions when teams are still being promoted and relegated leading up to the start of the season, and we are worried about coincidences in state cup draws.

I'm sure the ICAC or CAS (Court for Arbitration of Sport) would like to hear our grievances on this matter.

Dolphin Messenger
21-02-2014, 10:43 AM
Yes you would say that magician because your team didn't get drawn against a heavyweight in the 1st round. Why try to act like the draw is random and picked out of a hat when it is clearly not. They are better off pointing to a white board and selecting the teams for round 2 to show how the draw is being conducted

I'm as concerned with the whole structure of the "CUP" competition as with any aspect of a "false" draw conspiracy!
My thoughts:
the number of teams going thru to the finals series, considering quality and numbers participating????
maybe should be:
Northern Group - 3 teams.
NPL/NEWFM - 3 teams.
I/D Group - 2 teams.

OR

If those I/D guys are willing to put their teams where there mouths are then….
make the whole "southern competition" compulsory entry with registration and have a "proper" knockout draw with:
Northern Group - 2 teams.
Southern Group - 6 teams.

Thoughts????…. let 'em roll!

I think you'll find "premy" that the reason the original concept for the southern pool was changed in the first place was because of limited entries by "ZL" clubs. Make it compulsory for all clubs and revert to the original "knockout" competition with the "finals" weekend reflective of the quality and numbers of teams from each pool!

I personally think that all of NNSW should be in the same hat and names drawn out. If round can be broken into north and south then round 2 all thrown in together and if you draw ballina in ballina so be it nice pre season trip. Round 1-3 to be played in March .
1st WE MARCH Round 1 ZL 39 teams North 22 teams separated
2nd WE MARCH Round 2 ZL 20 teams and North 11 and NewFM 10 teams (31 Total 22 progress so really only 9 games get drawn and other 13 teams receive a bye) This allows the last 32 to be a full knockout
4th WE MARCH Round 3 NPL 10 + 22 from Round 2 (ZL, North, NEWFM)

Weston have lost every penalty shoot since the days against Adamstown in the hard fought Grand Finals from the 80's and early 90's so you may be onto something. From what I've heard about Singleton it will be double figures. Thats if they can get enough players to fill a side.

Should be exactly the same as the FA cup.
I mean whats the point in the current structure?
Having an NBN league team and possibly a Zone league 2 team in the semi finals.
I would rather see big scores in the early rounds and close finals, rather than close games in the early rounds and big scores in the finals.
Doesn't make sense to me?

Surely have to be at least 1 upset in the early rounds, very unlikely later on.

Would Maitland beating Southy not be classed as an upset ? Granted i am the only one that has so far went for Southy by the looks of things but from what Zeus said on an other thread Jaffas won convincingly at Maitland last night and people saying Southy looking quite good ?

I also think Cessnock will beat Toronto.

Perhaps could change my tip with Southy beating Toronto 5-0 last night, although I've heard about the Lambton all stars, Wheelhouse, McPherson, Remo, Fajs, couple of guys from Sydney at the back, lots of quality across the park, so beating Maitland isn't that much of a surprise. Which leads me back to the Southy/Maitland game, a team that will probably be mid-table NBN vs a team that could right along side them next year, will take the so called outsiders Maitland.

I think all the games at Lisle Carr will be close, really could go either way on all 3 games.

Massive kudos to the ground there. Wow!! Could barely tell there was any rain around.

We (Beresfield) aren't too disappointed with our result, I hate losing but we thought we held our own and conceded 2 goals that IMO thought we shouldn't have. Dissapointing but that's how it goes.

New Lambton looked pretty impressive against Simba. Charlestown looked good. Set up well and were really competitive. Also had their fair share of chances. Was that Cooks Hill at full strength?

I completely disagree.

Simba dominated the first half and conceded an unlucky goal from a silly defensive mistake.

The 2nd half however.... The players decided to utterly ignore the sound tactical advice I gave them, refuse to listen to logic and reason, and they thought they could organise themselves better. They were tactically foolish, (they are tactically oblivious) and eventually panicked and fell apart. Typical...

New Lambton didn't play well for a premier league team.... Their first half was pathetic. Their second half was slightly better but Simba played EXTREMELY terrible the second half, hence why they conceded 6 goals. I mean, when you are meant to defend WHY THE **** is there 4 or 5 of our players IN AN OFFSIDE POSITION....

I do have to comment that lambton's striker has a good shot on him.



Is there any clubs looking for a manager for zone league?

First of all a big thanks to Tenambit who do know how to host a day. Everything (that was in their control) ran smoothly and was done professionally. They seem to have helpers everywhere. Pitch looking the goods too. Hopefully they can get their football sorted after a couple of relegations. Good luck lads!
Jeso v Olympic was a win for us on penalties. Well done to our keeper.
No score at the break in bit of a dire first half. We cleared one off the line to deny Olympic and we missed the target on a runaway which were the halves 2 best chances.
Olympic scored pretty early in second half after taking advantage of a mistake and slotting whilst 1 on 1 with our keeper. From there on we never looked like conceding again and scored from a free kick, hit the crossbar and started to play some better football. We were further helped when a young bloke that had a pretty tough day ended up getting injured and they finished with 10. Hope he's ok.
Pretty good effort with only 3 starters today from last years semi final. Still trying to gel and there were some good signs. Looking forward to round 2.

The boys played well. My first year at Tenambit and today's game was very enjoyable.
We never let Stockton create decent chances and play the Stockton style from last year. Held our structure well.
Some fiery challenges but nothing too serious, except for one when Tenambit were up 1-0 midway through the second half. Studs in and it seen a straight red given to the Stockton guy.
I believe the stockton keeper got a second yellow after the final whistle for mouthing off too.

Was a yellow at best. Was 50/50 ball and clash of feet. There was contact but was his first foul of the game. Poor decision but tenambit already had us frustrated. Too many sloppy turn overs from us and didn't create much in the final third. There was really no open play scoring opportunities the whole match from either side. Goals came from well taken set pieces. Pitch was in great condition considering the rain

Would like.to thank the Stocko boys on a great game yesterday. Was really hard fought and I don't think anything really got out of hand. Won't make comment on the red card as being the goal keeper I was more the half the field length away. I agree with you Wilso there wasn't to many clear cut chances during the game but I still never could relax during the whole game.
You Stocko boys knock the ball around well and had us moving all over the park. Which makes me even more prouder of they way my.lads held there structure to deny you clear chances. In the previous two years we would have crumbled. Good luck in ZL2 this year you should do well.

Hi all,



As you’re aware there were a large number of postponed State Cup fixtures over the weekend due to the recent wet weather. NNSWF understands this is a busy time of year for all clubs as pre-season activities have been scheduled around our State Cup dates. As a result, NNSWF has determined that the washed out fixtures from Round 1 of the State Cup will now take place on Saturday 15th/Sunday 16th March (the weekend that was originally scheduled for Round 2 fixtures). This will affect the remaining rounds of the competition so please take note of the new dates below:



Round 1 – Saturday 1st/Sunday 2nd March and Saturday 15th/Sunday 16th March

Round 2 – Saturday 22nd/Sunday 23rd March

Round 3 – Wednesday 16th April

Round 4 – Wednesday 7th May

Round 5 – Wednesday 28th May



Apart from the additional date of Wednesday 16th April, the above dates were already locked in for State Cup fixtures so effectively the main changes are the round numbers.



Could each club that was meant to host Round 1 washouts please confirm ground availability for either Saturday 15th or Sunday 16th March as soon as possible.



Once all venues and kick off times have been confirmed I will distribute a revised copy of the draw.





Thanks,

Sophie

I'm actually surprised but I expected a Maitland win. Credit to Southy though. I went and watched and thought Southy we great value up until the send off. They seemed to play much different to last year. Johnson looked good at the back and Wallace looked good upfront.

Singleton and Hamilton was a poor game. Olympic were convincing winners and never got out of first gear

Would agree with you General that up until half time Southy looked better than last year and they seem to have a good striker in Wallace although not sure how good you can be suspended and he will need to cut that rubbish out.

That said , Maitland for me dominated second half and looked likely to win had the game gone a bit longer.

How ref never gave Southy a penalty was incredible as I was right in line with it and it was a stone wall penalty.

Another bye for Edgy ... will they be first team in history to win a cup without kicking a ball Ha Ha

Agree with the penalty call. It Was pathetic.I actually thought Southy could have scored 4 after they conceded. I wrote them off earlier, but they may suprise me this year. Was anyone surprised with how Maitland played? They seemed to just boot it up the park. I was slightly disappointed.

I actually thought it was a good open game and thought neither team booted the ball up the park , funny how people see a game differently... As for 4 goals , i struggle to remember there even being 4 shots clear shots at goal and that is inclusive of the two goals.

hopefully Valo can keep NewFM flag flying high in state cup as I think they can potentially knock of Weston.

What a joke!!! If it was a comp that your Zone League teams competed in on the same level as NPL/NEWFM then I wouldn't have an issue but you want to get a piggy back into the final stages of the comp along with the benifit of hosting the better sides? I've said it before and I'll say it again, this comp is a farce!

JCBT
13-03-2014, 09:47 AM
I like Westy and hope the survive but the fact that they have a round in this comp is wrong in my opinion.
They couldn't field a side to compete in the comp so why take an opportunity off a club that are competing and give them the chance to raise some coin? I'll go out on a limb and say that the fed will hand Westy the NEWFM Grand Final also.

pv4
13-03-2014, 09:51 AM
Don't mind that they're giving a round to Westy tbh.

I have a lot of sympathy for the situation they're in currently, without knowing too much detail about how they got there. They're still one of the older clubs in Newcastle (and I assume Australia) and I think for the sake of hosting a few cup games to get some canteen revenue etc, I'm happy for the fed to give them that kind of helping hand. Also, the facilities aren't the worst in Newcastle and the field is decent (although the grass is a bit long & heavy this year).

ForeverRed

All clubs were given an opportunity to host games, not many put there hand up due to youth league committments

ramsbelong@jesmondpark
13-03-2014, 01:58 PM
I must agree with Zico re: the State Cup, not necessarily the criticism of hosting clubs as I think any club could apply to host and why not. They take the NRL to inferior bush grounds so if blokes on $600 000 a year can suck it up then so can the best of Newcastle Park Footballers.

As a club newly promoted to ZL1 I guess the thought of playing one of the big guns can be seen as daunting by some, but I believe most would see it as an opportunity. We at Jesmond would.

I think it was 2010 we drew Weston straight up. We embraced the occasion and after 25-30 mins it was 0-0, we had defended with all we had and even went close to going up 1-0. They ended up putting double figures past us from memory, but we played it in the right spirit and were beaten by a far superior team who I think went on to win a trophy that year. Where's the harm in that? So our place in Newcastle Football was confirmed and we move on!

Maybe the correct mix is to exclude NBN and 2HD teams from round 1 and introduce 2HD round 2 and round 2 or 3 NBN jump in, similar to the FA Cup. At present if a zone league team has a good run against relatively similar opposition we have to look forward to not only playing a team from a superior level, but one of the stronger ones that have beaten their rivals already.

Anyway, it's a bit of fun and a brilliant idea that juts needs tweaking. Good luck all.

RANGER09

As most ZL clubs probably only started training 4 weeks before 1st state cup round, would be more beneficial to start it a few rounds into the regular season to give teams time to get their match fitness up, team strategies etc I like the idea you put up ramsbelong@jesmondpark as the new fm and NBN sides would definitely see better quality opposition.

I can tell you that it was an approach to the club to host the games not a request. And after seeing the field today (barring excessive rain tonight) no club will be disappointed with the surface they are being provided.

Any complaints about some wear in the South Western corner should be directed to the NPL coaches who decided to play spend the entire day in one corner of the field rather than move around occasionally. No accounting for some I guess.

I think as with the NPL the venue for NewFM would already be decided. Last year Wembley did host a Zone League GF and will offer to do so again.

The club is being transparent as possible with the club members and isn't hiding they are looking at a number of avenues to increase the grounds profile.

State Cup was heavily dictated by the dates set by FFA as to when Federations have to nominate their side/s for the next round that expands to include A-League clubs. Northern had that date and worked backwards trying not to disrupt the competitions. NewFm round one is next Saturday so I think they have done well only having the one interruption during the competition for State Cup.

NPL/NewFm do not play ZL as one of the considerations that was given to encourage ZL teams to enter when it was opened up to those divisions. The fact that 1 of the 4 semi final spots was guaranteed to ZL sides so the only way to ensure that guarantee is to isolate the teams from competing prior to the semi finals.
