2012 Zone League 2 Thread

Terrace up 4-1 in first grade! Well done boys, res grade 2-2, looking forward to see how top 4 now shapes up!
Belmont won the toss and started strong, missing a few early chances, without our star striker today was going to be interesting how our attack worked out, but with more patience than usually shown the boys played well and caught Belmont on the counter attack to find themselves up 3-1 at half time. A few formation changes and Belmont come out firing in the second half but were again caught out and 4-1 down due to our little speedster up front laying another ball across the goal mouth for another well finished goal. Good luck to all in the semis!

Charlestown V Jesmond

Reserves

0 - 0

Firsts

3 - 3

I believe Hamilton took 4th spot with one more GD than Charlestown.

Medowie v Olympic
Res 1-4
1st 0-5

Great effort by the Olympic boys to sneak into the semis

Haha thanks Waterboy... Your original quote was pretty well spot on for the events of the day (except for the final score in 1st Grade) with Bellbird only having 15 players for two grades and only one fresh first grade player. Made the day hard for us, but we thought it would be best to tough it out and get it over with.

Terrible pitch didnt help, but both teams played on the same field so no excuses there. At the end of the day, just not strong enough as a club to get a result in first grade.

Anyways, Bellbird done for the year. Congrats to those in the semi finals. Best of luck. And my tip to win it (if all teams at full strength) would be Terrace - massive improvers from 2011 and lethal up front.

Interesting....!
So you are telling me that Hamilton are in the finals?

Is it true that The Sof scored a bomb 35m cracker that went top right pigeon...?

I Could just imagine Hamilton now back at full strength with 4 first graders returning back from holidays..

Well done Hamilton..
All credit it to you.

No need to mention names on who and why certain bloggers didn't think it was possible.
Seems I was right all along.

Good luck to all teams involved in the finals..
It's going to be very full on for some teams involved..

My theory

Belmont-Strong all rounders and a work great as a unit.

Terrace-Striker in that squad belongs in the A-league.. Not a chance anyone in this league can contain him, and an absolute gentleman..

Westlakes- 1 big strong striker who has that killer instinct. Quality player..

Hamilton- We will see how they reform now that they have a full squad back together.

All the best boys.. Good luck

just for that......cmon westlakes !

Is lez the big striker or the smaller striker?
I actually rate the small striker more, i think he is more technical and extremely quick. both way to good for this division tho.

Lez is bigger of the two, was missing yesterday left Bobby to terrorize the Belmont defence, scoring two and setting up two.

Think i might have to see this terrace ace

Saturday 1st sept @ carrington
1sts Olympic vs terrace
Res muswellbrook vs Belmont

Saturday 1st sept @ ?
1sts Belmont vs westlakes
Res jesmond vs Charlie

Week one we play at 4th n 3rd ie cats n hamo. Not sure on days but pretty sure they made a rules that one has to be on sat and one on sun. If thus isn't the case I think it should be planned so that does happen

Now that it is a 2 leg final series you would think the 2 Belmont games are at the one ground then it would not matter if games clash on the same day

how does home and away legs mean they change fixtures to allow belmont to have both grades at the same ground?
i think it was last year they wouldnt allow musswellbrook to have their ressies and firsts play at the same ground and they played on the same day. im sure i can remember a case where mussy ressies played down here and their firsts team played at home. if they bent the rules for any fixture, common sense says that would have been the case to do so?
either way i hope they play both semis on alternate days. ive always enjoyed watching the opposing semi final be played when match scheduling has allowed for this.

I think it may come down to which team has priority on the field at Carrington between Suns and Olymipic, don't they share the ground there?
