Kotara South v Cooks Hill o35-C was called off as there was water on the cricket pitch at Lugar
suited us really well as we had barely half our players available
Kurri 7 - Stockton 1 O35-C
Good win for us but we need to be more clinical in front of goal with plenty of wasted opportunities. Credit to Stockton though they kept plugging away and were rewarded with a goal late on.
this doesn't surprise me - and I'm ashamed to say my own club is guilty of this crap

Sad reflection on the comps at the moment Boz.
People need to realise it’s a social game at the end of the day.
Not surprising been to several games of varying age groups. Miniroos where my grandson plays may as well be the World Cup,parents out of control abusing what would b e 12 year old Game Leaders. Told one guy from my own side to settle down and I got abused, seriously the game is getting worse it’s a joke. I also watched it all age game today where the referee was a player from the club that had played a previous game and the abuse he copped from the sideline from his own club supporters was unbelievable.Quote:

Frustrating game, just as we started getting into the game in the second half a red card to one of our better players put us well and truly on the back foot. Probably lucky in the end to keep it to 0-2.Quote:

If you’re wondering, I was number 45. Think I had a hole in my boot tonight :)
Kurri 0 Toronto 0
Hard fought end to end game with both teams probably only having 1 or 2 decent chances.
Beardo who got sent off really cost your team to be fair - there really wasn't any excuse for that sortof retaliation and from what i saw (in goals) that really changed the gameQuote:

The gradings are a joke,
The fixtures are a joke.
The competition is a joke.
Expecting over 35’s to play midweek as well as fridays has hamstrings twanging like banjo’s down on the bayou.
When else would they play the 15th game? And washouts?Quote:

A grade has 6 teams, B grade has 10 teams. B grade plays 18 games including 4 mid week games. Surely it would take the worlds biggest apologist to think that is anything but poor planningQuote:

I'd rather a six or ten team comp that didn't involve cricket scores every week
no-one wants to play 35As
Interesting thing about that story, no Jaffa’s or NL team all age or o35s play Cessnock....Quote:

I just checked the gradings spreadsheet too and this is correct - well spottedQuote:

no, it clearly states that you can only use a borrowed player from a lower grade - regulation D47 - https://macquariefootball.com.au/wp-...ION-D-2019.pdfQuote:

Stockton were a decent bunch of blokes - you feel shit for them being several grades above where they should be - it can't be fun losing every week
O35/C
Kotara 2
Valo 1
Very physical game but was a lot of fun.
Highlight of the game for me was the ref saying he would have given a penalty from a trip in the box if only the player fell over rather than trying to stay on their feet.
O35 C
Kurri 5 Swansea 3
Really good game 3-1 at half time, Swansea got it back to 3-3 then kurri scored 2 late goals for the win.
Got to add, Nesbit Park was probably the best pitch I’ve played on in years.
The highlight from my game Friday night was the referee giving an indirect free kick for a foul in the box. The justification was that the foul occurred in the indirect zone of the penalty area :wtf:Quote:

I think we belong in whatever grade Boz thinks Stockton should be in.
Only if they're multi-registered (regulation D50 in the link that boz sent)Quote:

Chewyonyaboots did this happen?
Tuesday night catch up old man football
Kotara South 5 Cooks Hill United 2
the cliche 'game of two halves' is thrown around a lot these days...
good game all in all, could have done without going down 4-0 in the first 10 minutes
Ouch. Kotara have a bit of pace up front with some decent control through midfield. They missed plenty of 1/2 chances against us.Quote:

It is possible to have indirect free kicks in the box but not for that reasonQuote:

all in all a pretty good game in good spirits - ruined by outright cheating leading the the first goal, and an unnecessary shoulder charge by a very fat man at the end of the game
you really have to wonder about some blokes in community football
