The ref and linesman were terrible. The ref lost control of the game in the end. Majority of the 50/50 calls went to Valo. Poor effort from the referees again.

I agree that's the point trying to be made. My point however, is that he isn't crash hot at pens. I honestly can't say that I've seen him score one, I'm sure he has at some point but I have been there to witness him miss a few. The idea that the top striker in a team should step up to take the pens is misguided, the best penalty taker should take them regardless of potential hat-tricks and from the penalties I have seen him take, I'd probably be giving them to someone else in the team.

Beeny Martin did score from the spot last week but has missed 2 spot kicks in the past 3 games.
The ref had a very difficult game to control and constant pressure from the Valo bench. He did a decent job IMO and although his frustration led to cards in the 2nd half he handled it decent.

Any 1St grade match report?

Fairly dominant display by the BelSwans IMO. However, goalscoring is a bit of an issue. To have the majority of the play and field position in the first half and go in to the break at 0-0 must have been a concern. But a couple of quick goals after the break and then another sealed the win. Good goal by Singo in the dying stages was good reward for their efforts on the day. All three grades winning means a traditional pizza training night on Tuesday I believe.

Westy 2 - Toronto 1

from Thornton
1st grade redbacks 0-4
23s 1-5
19s reback 1-0 :)

Anyone got a report on the Maitland v Cessnock game ?

Maitland 3-0 winners over Cessnock in first. Maitland also won both lower grades ( from memory) 3-2 in 23's. Score evades me for lower grade.
In first Cessnock keeper kept his team in it as long as he could but the constant pressure from maitland in second half finished them off.

Any truth to the Rumours that Cessnocks First grade coach threatened to "rip out your f#*king throat" to the Maitland 19s coach at the end of first grade? I'm also told he is coaching the 19s as well. Nothing's changed at Cessnock!

Wouldn't be surprised if Thomo did say this as he is a nutter but he can back up his words with actions. I watched the games today and Cessnock were played off the park in all 3 grades.

When Cessnock realise that football isn't won by kicking the living **** out of teams they may see some results but at the moment their entire game plan in all 3 grades is based on this.

I also noticed some Hornets 1st graders being played in 19's. Fu@k they must be desperate to win a comp if they are doing this shit.

Apparently they are short in 19s & they are just helping out until they find some more players. That's what I got told.

Similar occurred in first attempt to play the washed out Cessnock V West Wallsend U19's. Second attempt is played tonight.

The rumour is true about Thommo.
It was said over comments to a player in first grade that had played for 19s.
im guessing the comments offended the player enough to go to his coach about it.

Maitland v Valentine (23's & 19's catch up games)
23's 2-0 Valentine
19's 7-1 Maitland

I've been told by many a person that a coach is close to being sacked at a strong NEWFM club? From all acounts (this is coming directly from the horses mouth) he has losts the dressing room.

Time will tell if the rumour is correct.
