Tbh playing in the game today just doesn't give the best look, especially as players when we get pulled up for having different coloured tape/skins etc
Well firstly navy blue is the closest state league gets to black. I had to wear black on Saturday when doing lines for ZL1 and the guys in the centre had navy blue on, so that's a non issue, though personally I would've thought yellow would've been easier given the teams.
As for the senior assistant and the centre ref, they should have had the same kit on. As Mitchy said, we expect the players to conform to the rules, so should the refs, no matter the grade. So you were right, the two seniors should've had the same kit on, but juniors is hard when they decide to go navy on us.
What's happened to the all conquering Magic?
Two weeks ago we were expected to hand them the trophy now they have lost to the "shit flogs from Kurri" and the even shitter flogs from Whitebridge back to back.
A little reminder people you don't win the comp in May!
Don't stress, every side have a couple of games that they arent at their best throughout the season. Magic will be back in the winners circle soon enough.
Where was Kale , ambushing old ladies at Jesmond Mall?. Or avoiding his stalker?
Hows the bloke who got knocked out from Weston going? Looked pretty ordinary trying to get on his feet after going down.
He warmed up and pulled out after about 10 minutes, had the feeling Magic expected Azzuri to roll over. Azzuri showed good hunger and spirit and held a good shape, think they frustrated Magic a bit and IMO lost the mental battle.
Some huge games at both ends of the table this weekend. If southy win you would have to make maitland clear favourites for the drop. At the other end of the table if magic lose their 3rd game on the trot ( blasphemy I know ) it will put them a massive 7 points off the lead and long odds of winning the minor premiership
NPL is not my usual hangout but I thought Maitland were safe from relegation this year
I thought they got a year grace
Can any one confirm ???
Mind you in NPL youth they have bought nothing to the comp !!!
Only way their will be no relegation is if either of the 2 teams from NEWFM (Lakes/ Valentine) that have been granted permission to be promoted by NNSWF dont make the top spot... and after today's herald article... if Wallsend continue their winning ways there will be no relegation from NPL... its how Adamstown, Westy and Cessnock survived for so long back in the 90's/ early 00's when they were for years the whipping boys before finally going down.
Saying that Maitland come last, lakes/Valo premiers... Maitland go down.
gunners are crippled with injury. 11 players unavailable last weekend, nothing much on the horizon this weekend in players returning, need a quick fix fast, no excuses, steep learning curve for some very young players though
The key is in that the entire club has depth of strength surely?
Maitland promoted but with no depth, difficult to progress players up through the grades to cover for inevitable injuries etc when the quality isn't there. You can't make silk purse....
Of the sides licenced to be promoted Valo are sorely lacking in U17 whilst Lakes are very very strong, both the clubs other grades performing well too so I'm of the opinion that either of these Two clubs would add something to NPL next season.
I would say it does.
Last few seasons you have had 2 teams at the top Buds/Maitland/Valo smashing everyone and cooking out for the title
BelSwans were next well behind those two Thornton behind them and then 4 other sacrificial lambs who were getting smashed.
Now the teams appear closer as any team seems capable of winning games which makes it a stronger comp.
Maitland v Southy - going to be interesting if the home side have Joel Wood, Zac Hill, Justin Broadley, Nick Callghan and Fajkovic all out... Wonder how Southy are numbers wise this weekend?
Jets v Jaffas
Weston v Buds
Maitland v Southy
Olympic v Magic
CCB V Edgy
Predictions: Jaffas, Buds, Maitland, Olympic, CCB
