This is the best draw of the opening two rounds for sure! The only thing that would have been better is Suns vs Olympic ZL1 where there would be much more passion from both clubs involved.

I have to disagree Imyourhero as I think the Bye will beat Jesmond LOL
Bye out of form, tipping the upset.
Actually I think with the format for this year we will finally get to see whether NEWFM teams are better than ZPL teams as we will see a few match ups which couldn't happen in previous years of the State cup.
My fearless predictions are:
Belmont Swansea v Swansea
Newy Uni v Wallsend FC
Cooks Hill v Barnsley United
Westlake v Kahibah
Plattsburg Maryland v Cardiff City
New Lambton Eagles v New Lambton FC
Merewether v Kotara FC
Beresfield United Senior v Warners Bay FC
Belmont Tingara FC v Newcastle Suns
Toronto Awaba v Garden Suburbs - UPSET!
Stockton Sharks v Dudley Redhead Senior
Valentine FC v Lake Macquarie City - UPSET!
Kurri Kurri Senior v Mayfield United Junior
Hunter Simba v Morriset United FC
Beresfeild Junior v West Wallsend - UPSET!
Muswelbrook v Singelton Strikers
Charlestown Junior v RAAF Williamtown
Mayfield United Senior v Dudley Redhead United
Tenambit v Medowie
Thornton v Cessnock
Jesmond v Bye

Swansea v Belswans
Cessnock v Thornton
And Valo v Lakes should give a good idea who will set the pace in NewFM this year.
Suns will be playing Magic U19's in a trial instead of Belmont Tingara... BT have forfeited... Round 2 FFA Cup Olympic Vs Suns...
Well it was discovered this afternoon i think that belmont tingara and Valentine FC are run by the same club/committee so were actually ineligible to compete in the first place... ground was booked by Suns so organising a trial was the way to go so they didnt lose the $$$ for booking.
Was said with my tongue firmly in my cheek, taking the piss from NNSW themselves :gent:
