that is absolute bollocks ! i have never seen a side tear teams apart the way the pies have been lately. You must have rocks for brains mate, i am a redbacks supporter, but the way maitland played on the weekend against us, was outstanding!Quote:

Maitland is hammering everyone much more than last year because generally the teams have dropped off in skill. Especially since people think last years maitland 19s were better than this years.Quote:

I have previously played at this club and live in the area and the culture seems to be contagious through out the grades as the whole Thornton club are gelled together nicely.#gomanyou #redbacksruleall any thoughts on why the you magpies side is doing so well socerloverQuote:

But also, the magpies midfield line of power and kmetyk are doing a sensational job of playing balls into strikers feet, with the other striker holding the ball up well for king. It will be interesting to watch the pies next time against the redbacks, i believe from a redbacks point of view, it will be ALOT closer of a match up, especially if the coach comes to his senses and give young Thomson a run, cheers soccer loverQuote:

Agreed socerlover I am also confused that magpies young coach has not been starting a key winger that has scored many goals this season I'm not sure of his name but his brother plays for Thornton 23s I think is Elliot or Ely or something like that anyway this young player has scored some outstanding goals this season and has been benched for some new unneeded recruits for the young maitland side now consisting of 16 or 17 players ,not sure what's going through the coaches head when they have only dropped 3 points all season #thompson to start on SundayQuote:

They appear well coached, are mobile and also physical - when needed. They are the team to beat OMHO (as a bird).Quote:

I mean seriously... 19's as ball boys is insulting them, esp when they are not even playing that night but then to demand they do it in the rain with a training top on and nothing covering it. Do some clubs actually realise the level of football they are in? It is really so shaming that in a mind week evening washout game first grade players should fetch their ball??? LOL
I'm going for 4 home wins in the NEWFM this week:
Singleton
Adamstown
Toronto
Thornton
Did they all get a pie and can of coke at halftime?Quote:

This is great, noone's above the game or club. I also hope when 1st or 23's have a shocker they are also obliged to return the favour.Quote:

Just my predictions mate, might be right might be wrong.
Looking forward to taking a short flight across the lake to the "Peacock" ground tomorrow. Will be waiting with anticipation to see Joel Shearer make his debut for BelSWANS along side his twin brother Luke. The word around the BelSWANS camp is that he's been buzzing at training! Should be good to see the midfield battle.
Might venture down 2morrow and watch sancho and the rest of his flock get plucked :tongue:Quote:

There is heaps of Talent in the side but I got to see a bit of the team last year and individuals may not be quite as good but they are showing improvement which is always good! No good having ability if there isn't a good coach there to develop it.
Would have to agree about that young Eli guy but suppose if you have a team that's winning so well week in week out it would be a bad habit for that young coach to go changing it around surely.
Cessnock, Thornton & Belswans are all good sides from what I've seen but Thornton don't seem to be improving at the same rate as the other sides and Cessnock are just struggling to grind out 3
Points consistently! Belswans are the dark horses but when push comes to shove Maitland should get over them (next week will tell)
Toronto v Bel Swans
1st- 0-4
23s 1-3
19s 0-3
Dougy?Quote:

Sat in the stands to watch the buds today. Maitland should do them easy. Buds very ordinary against a team coming 2nd last. Buds will need to lift and are capable of it I'm sure.
Did J.Shearer get that hatty sancho? I'm keen on a milkybar.Quote:
