I agree, being a keeper myself you can definitely see what is happening all over the park.. I know I always have something to say at the halftime chat as Iv seen something others on the field may not have.Quote:

As well as some lighthearted banter to go with it that we all know they are good for. Someone better tell them now to not kick the ball out of play when 1 up at Suburbs though.
3 up**Quote:

Agreed X, this looks like it will be a tough comp again. Uni combining their teams you'd imagine would be strong. Suburb() if they keep that same team really should win the thing and I'm still shocked they didn't last year. Wallsend, according to the ZPL thread, have lost their coach so I assume are a bit of an unknown. Terrace will be looking again to add another Grand Final and arguably more to their trophy cabinet for sure. And Azzuri, if able to keep the team together, have a squad that I reckon rivals Suburb() so they'll be phenomenal - wait sorry if you talk to the Azzuri boys they're fully ready for the battle to #survivethedrop :rof: looks like a tidy comp and a win for most that there are so few trips up the valley!
Makes sense too apply. Guess you guys are hoping for another morrisset of last year happening now.Quote:

More than half of our 1st grade recruitments from the last 3 years have been from wooden spooners from the previous years(medowie, tenambit and Nelson bay)lolQuote:
