Where is Baxter field? Is that valos junior ground?
Baxter Field is located off Harlow Street in Marks Point
Why not Cahill oval
From what I've heard from around the traps Some rich bloke has bought Marks Point Bowling and wants to invest a lot of money into Baxter Field with or without Council/Government funds. I've been told once he has it up to scratch he wants Phoenix out there and the Bowling Club would be the sponsor. Anyone wish to confirm this or elaborate on what the truth is?
Thornton 1 - 3 Toronto
1st - Valentine 3-0
23's - Valentine 6-0

So the migration of the Phoenix continues. ..... getting closer to Blacksmiths hey boys!
Any round 4 predictions from you "up homers"!!!

Valentine V Toronto
19s 1-4
23s 5-1
1sts 2-1
The wind had quite a bit of impact on the game this afternoon with Valentine probably having about 90% possession in the first half with it. Toronto sat back and let them play it around instead of getting buggered chasing them all day. It was clear Valentine were waiting for Toronto to make a mistake which paid off when they scored the first goal. Only 1-0 at half time after controlling the game would have been disappointing for Valentine. Toronto hit back to make it 1-1 and they were pushing very hard for the last 30 minutes. The 2nd goal for Valentine came in last 10 minutes or so, it was a clear penalty, their keeper almost saved it, just slipped underneath him.
Teams who try and play pressure Football against Valentine at Cahill Oval will find themselves in trouble, they are quality passers and will make you run around all day.
Just glad to get the three points ... Could easily have been so different today
Any idea anyone of the Maitland score ?

West Wallsend v Maitland saw a new referee to the area. Apparently from Central Coast has joined Northern's ranks for higher level experience. All things considered I thought she did well, not perfect but no one will be and her first showing at NewFM level also.
Only thought I had was she perhaps should have sent the two players off mid second half for their behavior and not just yellow card them. And hopefully with a bit more experience in the ranks will be more comfortable not allowing players to delay restarts by wanting to talk to her over decisions.
But with the low numbers of officials I think she will be a very welcome addition to the top divisions.
Just a warning to all players and clubs.
Referees have adopted a new system it would seem this year.
Referees can submit "complaints or incidents" that happen on the pitch but have not been dealt with on the pitch (ie no card) and the club (depending on severity) can receive warnings and even fines for persistant bad behaviour.
My issue is if something has happened on the pitch why doesnt the referee take action against this player.
Anyway just a heads up.
The ref that did the 19's was a disgrace, I heard her talking to the Maitland coach in a disgraceful manner when he simply asked her a question (in a non threatening tone). I'm all for ref's being shown respect from both players and officials but it needs to be noted that they need to show respect in return.
2 players sent off? Are you for real? I was at the game and I struggle to recall the instance that warranted 2 players being red carded.
