Just call the season off and be done with it, who cares. Premier or no premier, much bigger issues facing us all at the moment

I agree. Lets be honest awarding it to any team doesn't really do anything to the other teams.Quote:

Stop putting people in limbo NNSW
From reports out of NNSW the competition will be called off on Friday and Jaffas announced premiers
Wouldn’t expect anything else from northern nsw football. Clowns from top to bottom.Quote:

If what is true of earlier posts with NNSW engaging with clubs to make the calls, why all the criticism ??
Thanks Dave EQuote:

Cancel final series and if we are in lockdown until October 10, let the 3 clubs Jaffas Maitland and Edgy play their last 2 matches. It would mean playing 5 games , say October 23 and 30.
You don't have to play all games , just get the Premier sorted. All 3 clubs would be in the same position preparation wise
Round 17
Maitland vs Broadmeadow
Jaffas vs Charleston
Edgeworth vs Adamstown
Round 18
Edgeworth vs Broadmeadow
Maitland vs Jaffas
Could you imagine the crowds at the round 18 games
Just give it to whoever had the most corners
lol some people in tears over something not fair with 2 games to go. Top place is "most likely" to finish top.
Remember when we lost an Aleague Grand Final due to cheating? Yeah, the sun came up again.
Indeed not just a plastic trophyQuote:

They don't need an incentive, they are in a comp that goes for 18 rounds and if Northern deemed those rounds to be played the clubs play or forfeit , but I think they would play.Quote:

Well Northern have cancelled it now and awarded Premiers on a points per game basis.
Though I note "Lambton Jaffas president Scott Douglas said clubs fully respected and supported the decision to end 2021 Premier Competitions seasons." Bit poor to include the Lambton President considering his team are declared Premiers because of the decision to announce Premiers. I'm sure his club is very supportive of that decision.
Could've had the Vic Chairman of the standing committee make the comment.

Now the season is done and dusted after looking at the ladders are Valo worthy of remaining in NPL last in all 3 grades, shite facilities, consistently poor performers surely they should go Cookers in 10 team competition no bye.Quote:

E.G Lakes blew all there money on pensioners, and still failed to improve ,cooks hill will do the same with DT's pensioners brigade in 2022. Valo and buds have been equivalent to pub teams the last 5 years +, and finished last and second last. But hey the grass isn't green enough. F me what's the focus here, quality of football or Hunter Valley Gardens as facilities
Just a flat pitch would be nice. And another artificial complex in Newy somewhere.Quote:
