Interested to see how they finish off the season
Cardiff not happy, Warners Bay get the boost as they lost to Azzurri in the 2nd rd.Quote:

Azzurri should have zero points and all clubs given the 6 points from the matches.
Never been to Lisle Carr but Cessnock put on great game days. Like all grand finals, it isn't just the people running it, it is the people attending. Get a great crowd and it will be a great atmosphere.Quote:

Who else were they playing???
The competition regs have been in place for years.Quote:

The regulations are clear and have been followed to the letter.
The only entity to blame here is Azzuri.
Absolutely this.Quote:

Hopefully some of those involved learn some humility from this experience.
The main issue is the day, Friday night isn't good for anybody. I'm sure the crowd would be much better on a Saturday, which in turn would be better for the host club.Quote:

For mine, Sunday is Zone league 1 grand final day. Both ZL2 and ZL3 could easily be played at different venues on the Saturday. Just scatter First grade kickoff times.
Zl3 First grade kickoff at 1
Zl2 First grade kickoff at 4.30
I don't disagree, Friday night is an abomination. I can only guess it is done that way because it is easier for Newcastle Football.Quote:

That said, I reckon Kotara will beat Suns first game, and Suns will bounce back in prelim to grab GF place against Croatia. Neither team to finish with 11 on the park and Croatia to win by 2 goals
Terrible prediction. The students will toy with Mayfield.Quote:

Suns are hosting 4 games at Myers Park on Tuesday
ZL1 1st Grade 8pm Suns vs Kotara
ZL1 Res Grade 6pm TBC after weekends games
ZCL1 Myers 2 6:15pm Suns Vs Kotara
ZCL2 Myers 2 7:45 TBC
Game final predication is Hamilton Azzurri will be doing the halftime mini games for the crowd.Quote:

No excuses Bar tv you have the date and time now..Quote:
