RAAF v Abermain
Res 3-1 RAAF
1sts 4-2 RAAF
Wallsend v Dudley at Dudley
Ressies 3-0 Wallsend
1st Grade 7 - 4 Dudley
2 all at halftime after a fairly even half. Its as if we didnt come out of the sheds for the 2nd half. Dudley came out firing and took it to us. They wanted it more and it showed. Congrats to Dudley on the win. Current benchmark for the competition.
How good is sunday zl3 football. A breakaway from the normal. So i ventured to watch dudley v wallsend since the game was postponed. And lets be honest. The ref has tried his best to control the outcome of both grades. Not even watchin raaf play yest provided so much entertainment. A pen in each game to wallsend that lets be honest would struggle to provide a free kick in any other game. God knows how many free kicks. And a bucketload of yellows/reds should have been given to both teams once the ref lost control. But back to the football. Reserve grade was a shut out to wallsend. Geez they looked good. 1st grade. Dudley took a long time to settle. Scored 2 against the run of play. But once settled made wallsend look underdone and flat for entire 2nd half. Both dudley CB and both ST looked immense. After what ive seen i hope the chance arises to watch some more zl3. Always good to know your competitionQuote:

I dont like to bag refs, but that ref needs to learn that the game is not about him. He also needs to learn that he is refereeing football not netball. So much time waisted talking crap to players, hard to get respect. 2 crap penalties to wallsend in firsts and ressies that could have had an affect, but luckily didnt.Quote:

1st 2-2. Uneventful match, dudley keeper 2 errors, shame but every keeper has a bad day. Dudley should have put 4 past em but to mayfields credit they hung tough and got an outcome they would be happy with.
Wallsend v Abermain
Ressies: 2-1 Wallsend
1st Grade: 4-1 Wallsend
Heard the kahibahs training was called of because nobody attended last night lol. I think dudley and wallsend are the teams to beat.Quote:

We are just happy to get a run of games going finally. Playing the 1st round then having the bye and then 2 weeks of washouts was not a good Way to get the season started.Quote:

1sts 2-2. Mayfield 2-0 down at halftime and came home strong. Mayfield had enough opportunities to win comfortably, but the referee didn't help. Edgy player already on a yellow takes a guy down in the box (and was the last man). Ref says I won't give you a yellow because you've already got one. Love the quality of ZL3 referees!
Still early days. Simba and cooks hill were hot favourites last year and kurri stormed home to win.
It doesnt look good for games tommorow. One thing is for sure , If I was wallsend I would be ready to play. Raaf will play rain, hail , shine or flood.
Kurri didn't storm home and win anything, simba won the comp with games to go and we're favourite from start to finish. I guess Kurri won the novelty of the grand final but that's all it is a novelty it really don't mean much in the long run.Quote:

Will know the verdict tonight.
Yep, RAAF will play in a monsoon (last week) or in a superstorm (dudley game). Suits them fine, the balls are plastic kmart balls, and the away shed is more akin to the 'showers' in a certain polish 'work camp'. Be prepared if you go up there, im still finding mud in places I didnt know existed.
Pack your insect repellent when playing @ Tomato. The mozzies around the sheds are the size of fruit bats
Our game is off tomorrow. Anyone on here from Edgeworth? We want to reschedule for this midweek coming up. We have gone through NF but this will be faster if we can make it happen.
Well kurri did win something, the grand Final. Minor premiership and promotion is one thing, but you cant say it's everything. Grand Finals in all divisions and levels in Australia are the biggest day for respective competions.Quote:

Obviously from DRUFC.
RAAF v Wallsend @ Tomago
Ressies: Wallsend 4-2
Another good win for the boys to keep the momentum going.
1st Grade: Wallsend 5-4
Well what to say about this game but wow. RAAF were up 3-0 within 10 minutes. We looked flat and tired from the midweek catchup game. Couldnt get the ball in midfield and everytime it was given away RAAF broke forward with speed cutting us apart. A formation change and early sub paid dividends and had it back to 3-2 at halftime.
2nd half the RAAF were still in control but we were better at soaking up the pressure. A ball lost in midfield and a quick ball through had the RAAF back in front at 4-2 and looked like shutting the game out. All credit to our boys though. We dug in and with about 15 to go pulled one back with a break down the right and cross to the far stick for a header into the top corner. 8 minutes to go managed to equalise again with another break out wide our player cutting in and squaring it up for the striker to take a touch and finish. Our striker was then sent for a 2nd yellow but with about 2 to go a cleared ball from defence found our 2nď striker one on one with a defender, turned him inside on the edge of the box and put the ball away for the winner.
RAAF definitely have the quality to hurt teams and they play some nice football. Goodluck for the season.
New Lambton v Wallsend

Dudley vs Edgie
1st 2-0 Dudley
Res 3-1 Dudley
First grade Dudley pretty much in control, Edgie could have hit first with a quick break only to push the shot wide. Dudley then created the next few real chances and took one. Pretty fair result vs a very competitive team with some quality young lads, quite nippy.
Res saw 2 pens to Dudley, they were pens as there was contact made but jeez they were soft, if they had of gone the other way I'd be pist! 2 reds given, 1 each team. 1 was 2nd yellow after reacting to being stomped about 6 times by the Edgie player, Dudley player took his shirt off and threw it on the ground before going off, 2nd red was a straight red for stomping on the Dudley player 6 times.
6 points today, well done lads.
NL vs Jesmond
Res: 1-0 NL
Firsts: 7-0 NL
Im not suprised that kahibah ressies players played well in firsts. I think there are one or two standouts in ressies that should have been in firsts anyway. Kahibah are a strong club, numbers appears to be an issue as it is with other clubs. You need at least 30 players in your squad with the ability to draw on players from all age to be competitive over the whole year.Quote:

Kahibah vs raaf
Irish here, Manager of the Kahibah Squad.
At the weekend against the RAAF, I witnessed something special from one of the RAAF guys and just wanted to note it.
In the Ressie game, it was a close 0-0 battle and towards the end of the 1st half one of my guys shoulder was injured and causing him pain. (we also had no subs)
Leaving the field, one of the RAAF guys offer to strap up his shoulder so he could continue playing.
So at half time this RAAF guy took out some sports strapping tape from his own bag - the really good stuff, ya know that black sports tape you see the NRL guys wearing on TV, not the crappy brown stuff we all get from coles.
He used like half a roll too...
Not sure anyone else from any other club would have done this ... Was amazing, and just a touch of class.
And believe it not, after the game finished he also gave my guy an ice-pack from his bag.
If any RAAF guys read this forum, can you let me know your guys name and what he drinks and when you come to Kahibah ill have an ice-cold 6-pack of beer in the dressing room for this guy.
Thank you so much again, and really hope the RAAF go well this year.
Great bunch of players all round.
Kahibah v Wallsend
Ressies: 2-1 Wallsend
1st Grade: 1-1
Dudley v jesmond
First grade dudley 8-0
Ressies dudley 3-0
Jesmond only had around 16 for both games. Ressies score should have been alot more and first grade score balloned out towards the end when jesmond ran out of legs. Credit must go to the Jesmond guys that played, I hope they can fix their number problems up and finish the season well.
NLFC vs Mayf
Res 2-2
Firsts 7-1 NLFC
Any news on how the grounds are looking for weekend with all the rain?
