Good oneQuote:

No idea about Cardiff?s line up. Kudos to your team bud, plenty of solid trial game results.Quote:

Correct, no trophy in trials. It Seems some teams are allowed to share results without judgement, but as soon as Cardiff share some results it turns into bitterness and having to mention other teams players out, or money. A desperate grab by a desperate few
No desperate grabs or excuses here Vincent/Red. Simply stating facts.
Vincent you need to lighten up a little, not everything is an attack on your mob. You are constantly butt hurt.
People are acknowledging Cardiff?s rapid improvements, some may be intimidated.
It?s exciting to see another contender unearthed in what will be a competitive season.
Stockton v AC United (Sydney's Southern District Premier league)
Reserve: 1-4
First: 1-1
Another day, another post from Cardiff people getting upset that people know they pay players. Give it a rest, everyone knows, it isn't some big secret nor is it something to hide or care about, most clubs do it.
In my opinion, whether someone just wants to play with mates, or if his rego is covered, or gets match payment/win bonus etc, why would I care? You only play with whoever is in front of you regardless of how they ended up in that team. If you have the money to pay for whatever, good for you. I think it is going to be a very entertaining season of football ahead of ZL1 clubs.
Never seen money score a goal
This year will be interesting, heard that most clubs have picked up well and restocked some already good squads, bring the Croats into the mixture and makes for a good comp.Quote:

This could be anything! But I'll have a stab. Just going to jump on the Cardiff hype train! I think 2-5 could all spin around very closely...Quote:

1: Suns, clear favourites, expecting them to be promoted quite comfortably.
2-6: Quality line ups, hard to split.
7-9: To cause teams above problems on their day. Not consistent enough to play semi final football.
10-12: long season ahead.
Any chance of some predictions in a list preferably.Quote:

Croatia will be in reach to nab it by the end when those mysterious injuries occur in the final rounds. Of course they'll go 3 points clear of Suns at the end of Round 1.Quote:

Don't really give predictions River, especially about Cardiff and tables, I never have, no fence sitting, but i will give you the winner of ZL1, which i think it will be the Suns, they have recruited to well to not be the top dog.

One more result from the weekend.
Westlakes beat Nelson Bay 3-0
Ressies went the other way 0-4
The top 3 could literally be decided by goal difference, it will be great to watch for sure!
I don?t think beating Nelson bay 3-0 is a clear indication of where westlakes end upQuote:

Back again for another year of football in Newcastle's most entertaining competition.
1. Suns
2. Croatia
3. Cardiff
4. Uni
5. Olympic
6. Warners Bay
7. Kotara
8. Mayfield
9. Swansea
10. Westlakes
11. Azzurri
12. Stockton
Quick rundown:
Stocko are in big trouble this year, I'd be surprised if they win a game.
Cardiff will surprise everyone.
Teams in positions 6-10 basically nobody cares about, just there to fill numbers.
Olympic got lucky last year and will regress to their level (5th).
Suns way too strong, basically their team is the NSWIS team from years ago...
Azzurri may still go down even if they don't finish last. Zombie club.
Croatia with deep pockets and lots of quality. If they can stay out of trouble, it will help them big time and they will be challenging for the title + grand final. Don't be surprised to see them get promoted even if they come second because Suns won't want to go up. What a success story that would be from the bottom tier to NewFM.

Croatia did exactly the same thing 30 years ago...except they went NPLQuote:
