So how unhappy is everyone with their grading for the season?
What’s the chances of someone just posting all of the gradings here so we don’t have to ask individually
when did Friday All Age get bigger than Saturday All Age?
Couple years ago, seems everyone want to play Friday night.Quote:

Been growing year after year Boz. Also part of the reason we struggle for refs.Quote:

Any idea when fixtures will go live? We are only 3 weeks out from season start after all.
Probably be the week ofQuote:

Your answer is in your question, if it's 3 weeks until the season, it's 2 weeks until we get our schedule.Quote:

Muswellbrook have a few Friday teams though - which is a bit shit if you're travelling from the down south
Pretty much all of the HV clubs are out of the Saturday comp. Only Largs with 3 teams, Gresford with 2, and Methford, Maitland and Dungog with a team each in the lower grades.
Why do they insist on splitting up teams from the same club into different competitions? Bellbird has 2 teams in the bottom 2 grades of Friday all age, surely they'd rather have a game against each other than have to travel into town after work (and save having another team drive out there). Several similar examples of this throughout the draw. Gresford Vacy in A and C grade - just throw them both in B grade and save the hassle.
These teams may have asked for those grades. That Gresford team in A is very good and would dominate the B grade comp.Quote:

Can someone with knowledge of how it all works explain why the associations are only able to develop the draws a week before the season? The initial reaction is "their just incompetent, grading has been known for weeks already it and ground availability is known, it shouldn't take that long"; but I'm assuming that this is narrow sighted and that there is actually some real legitimate reason why year after year we're only given a week's notice.Quote:

My club got home fixtures maybe 2 weeks ago to check. That's Hunter Valley. So it's all different time frames and it's getting all the data together to publish.
The short answer is that it would depend on what fixture development program they use. Gameday has one built in, but it is pretty basic. Also clubs would have requests that they would have to go through and they would need to take into consideration availability clashes and/or ensuring there are no time clashes. For a competition of the size of the 3 zones, It would be a very complex process.Quote:

If my experience with grading and requests was meant to be preferential because it was done by Hunter Valley and they were meant to look after us, I think they missed the memo. I was always under the impression it was done by all the zones together in long drawn out meetings.
games are online now
Spare a thought for the guys from Muswellbrook who travel each second week down the Hunter Expressway! That is commitment! If they have an 8pm kickoff away, they'd be lucky to get home before midnight!Quote:
