You can't compare to winning a Grand Final. Packed out ground, whole club there supporting, family and friends coming along to watch. The atmosphere is like nothing else. Even if you go with the attitude "we've already won the minor and secured promotion, this doesn't really matter", the moment you see everyone there, the atmosphere is contagious and you'll feel stupid if you don't try and win. Hell, send a message to NBN teams that you mean business.
A minor/major double in both senior grades would be a superb achievement for the club.
heard from my mate didnt catch game due to playing myself lambton 4-3 over toronto "shitty conditions and rough pitch" would of been a good one to catch with that many goals :)
clearly never won a grand finalQuote:

It would interesting to see what coaches would do. All they need to do is get into the finals and make run for the gf.
Any Thoughts. Personally I wouldn't like to see this happen but who knows what they will do I the future.
Ergh. Promote to minor premiers. They've showed consistency throughout the whole year. That's what it takes in NBN, consistency all year or you miss out on semis or end up relegated.
Perhaps locally, our mindset may change to consider the minor trophy the Major Premiershp, and vice versa. imo, if promotion/relegation was introduced between all divisions, I think it would go a long way to changing the mindset.
I blame this mindset on AFL, NRL etc where there is one major competition; No relegation/promotion; And the hype these codes give to their grand finals.
Todays games:
19s: Lambton 1 - Adamstown 3
23s: Adamstown 1 - Maitland 2
1sts: Maitland 0 - Adamstown 2 (two very very very special goals from buds)
In what way?Quote:

Happy to stand corrected if the above scorelines are incorrect.
Looks like there will be no clean sweep for any club this yearQuote:

Poor reffing cost the stags the game with the second goal. The reff orignally called it as a goalkick yet the jaffas player played on and the reff went along with it.Quote:

But hey thats sport. We just need to think back at Diego Maradona "Hand of God" goal to realize even the best reffs get the decisions wrong.Quote:
