Do any of them have a chance at NPLW status by 2022 or can we look forward to more mergers/takeovers?
If so, who will realistically associate with who?
I’m predicting more mergers/ takeovers next year. My guess is Warner’s Bay to either Lakes or Valo Merewether to Lambton and I would think New Lambton keep hold of their own in hope of going to NPL with the men’s... well that’s my guess anyway.Quote:

All makes sense. Especially if it’s true that NNSWF are offering financial incentives for these mergers/licence takeovers to happen. Only a matter of time.Quote:

I wouldn't call Adamstown affliated. It's ARJFC and ARFC, two clubs, two banks accounts, two committees, they just use the same ground and that's it.Quote:

Seriously people, this is what got this sub-forum shut down previously. Pull your heads in and stop this mud-slinging shit or the local football section will be shut down permanently.
Which would be a great shame, its a very popular section of the website but its not the wild west where you can post what you want. Naming individuals and then posting libelous statements about them is quite clearly against the rules (read the rules announcement at the top of every sub-forum page) and will result in disciplinary action.
Onyatoes has received a 2 point infraction, 1 more point and it will result in a month ban from the forum altogether.
Goose. It was a reply not the startQuote:

Does NOFC share their ground? Does Magic share theirs? Does Adamstown? No other NPL or Newfm teams there. Edden also has the WPL.Quote:

Anyone got any updates on the GF after Plovergate.
I know it’s moved to Macquarie Field but I heard rumours that the game was locked out or something similar as in full.
Then the new 1 in 2 rule came in so thought it would’ve changed.
Apparently it is ticket only but will be on Bar TVQuote:

Could split them. 13s 15s 17s and res 1sts?Quote:

Plovers were nesting and attacking players on field, had to change venue.
Covid restrictions on number of spectators same as every other sport in 2020.
Fair enough but I haven't seen tickets required for prepurchase before hand at these other sports at a similar level.Quote:

Had to prebuy tickets for Newcastle Rugby League Grand Finals at Maitland last weekend.
It was indeed.Quote:

I missed the Res game, but surprised Olympic lost, they have been the best team all year. However the core of that team have been the best 17's team for the last two years and have failed to win a GF.
1st grade - both teams had periods of dominance, and either "could" have won, but Olympic got the job done.
Given everything that has happened this year, a really good outcome for Women's football.
Current plan is to have all 5 games on the same day in 2021
Just speaking to my niece who plays in the Football Queensland WNPL U15's.
They've just found out in their wisdom in the lead up to the Womens World Cup next year the have made their age groups U14's, U16's and the next one is U23's. How many girls are they going to lose after U16's - it's no wonder AFL is kicking on with their girls numbers.
