Goal on 90 mins to win a poor game

4-1 Weston over Buds
2-1 Edgey over Maitland
And I heard valo beat olympic ?
Field very slippery, wasnt a peach surface after jets on wed night, both sides done their best in the conditions, thought azzurri deserved the result. 2-0 down against magic at magic and to come back and win is a great effort.
Bye - could you tell your scoreboard attendant of the pretty scoreboard, be nice to put correct score up, sure would have been up in a flash if was magic 3-2, also maybe call the goal scorers names out when the opposition score , just abit of etiquette ... Ta
Azzurri were full strength today were they mate ??? You wouldn't know ...... Cheers
If NPL1 is extended to 12 teams next season ill be very interested to see what happens to wages. I wouldn't be surprised to see an increase in the already inflated wages. I think a lack of depth in quality players (in a 12 team comp) will force clubs to pay overs to attract players or even retain players. Thoughts ??
If the planned Under 20s competition comes in then I think there will be downward pressure on player payments.
The impact of lowering 22s to 20s will mean the bulk of this years 22s will be unable to play NPL football unless they move to another club that is willing to fit them in their top 20.
In theory prices should come down as the supply of players looking for top 20 spots will probably increase.
For example, Edgworth 23s players may look to go to Lakes next year and play first grade NPL. The alternative is to stay at Edgy and play Zone league.
Probably won't be sustainable for most clubs to increase player wages. If for example you average 250/game per player (in the starting 11) it's already $11000 more for the year with the extra 4 games, before any pay rise. Don't know how much more clubs could take?
Which teams will play npl1 and when will relegation come back into play?
It seems if they do go with 12 teams, 11 of them pick themselves. The other would be tough to pick, alot of things to consider. Ground, coaching licence, junior availability etc. I do think the NPL teams should be playing 22 rounds, all it will mean for most clubs is a few less trial games most all ready had 6 or more trial games. Clubs might have to look at per season payments instead of match payments?
When do we find out about the new competition structure?
According to the federation the date has now moved due to the desire of the clubs to change from 20's to Reserve Grade. We may find that the decision will be made a month or so later as the board of the federation only meet every 2 months. The ratification meeting was to be held next week, but that has been taken off the agenda.
This is going to be a complete mess
Can anyone confirm semi final format in npl this year?
Feel like NNSW are getting a lot of flack for something they have little to no control over.
End of the day it's someone from the FFA deciding what happens, NNSW just have to enforce it.
Saying that, NNSW 100% need to do a better job communicating with the clubs about what is going on.
Leaving it to the after the GF and now possibly later is a joke, how are clubs meant to sign a coach and players without knowing what Comp they are in.
With the current reports of dissent amongst the NPL clubs regarding youth development, open reserves vs 20's etc - what are the consequences with the FFA if these are not satisfactorily resolved - In the favour of full implementation of FFA NPL structure?
Can the FFA remove not only the NPL license of individual clubs but also that of NNSW - thus resulting in no NPL Comp for the region?
Would be a shame - considering where Edgie and Jaffas are.
Why dont they just add Resevre grade and still have 20's and 18's and play 4 games a day. Surely we would still be NPL compliant.
Because the clubs in Newy haven't developed a Soccerroos in 20 years as they are more interested in buying players to win a 10 k comp than developing quality players themselves.
Why would they have any interest in developing players like they should be when they are more interested in pilfering from one another??
Easier doing it their way
Funny you should mention that EH9.. back when the region were producing socceroos like Curran , Jennings , Halpin etc , we had
1st grade
Reserve grade
19s
Back then the local competition was a mile better than it is now. I wonder if a strong 1st grade with a strong reserve grade putting pressure on 1st grade players had an impact on the quality of the comp.
The comp was strong but technically poor
Good draw tonight mr magic ... Edgeworth at home against the club with the biggest following supporters in the a-league , and no doubt to be played at the ground that the bloke who done the draws ground..... I know a draw but very ironic ...... Anyone know why magic were involved in the draw anyway ? Just a question , not having a dig .
