then that comment would be logical, if that wasn't the case.
i guarantee if you had no martial connection, bellbird vs denman dingoes would be better
your right, npl is pretty ordinary this year
My Daughter Plays at Wbay yes but my wife sadly can’t kick a ball and trust me Id prefer watch a good game of football then watch Denham that’s a stupid statementQuote:

that's it, unfortunately it will take years for wpl to improve.
Valo are not shit. You are!Quote:

All those accounts speak about the same three topics.
At this point in time your anon accounts are as easy to spot as the entire New Lambton board that’s on here 😂

And the conversation was going so well - except for the slanderous dribble that sneaks in every now and then!!!
And once again it comes back around to New Lambton.
And once again - WRONG - I think last count 3 committee members on here !!!! Sorry to disappoint!!!!!
Who did I bag?Quote:

The boys have been at it in Newcastle for some 100 years so over time their player numbers have increased and they have a huge pool of junior players all the way to senior grades. Women's football in comparison is a much younger development. That's not to say its not good because they have benefited from the experience and knowledge gained from the men.
increasing the numbers at the younger age groups with development from good coaching filters upwards. it takes time but as a group we need to be looking at increasing number and age groups which eventually creates a great pool of talent.
I just think reducing age groups in NPLW would reduce numbers and potentially the quality of players in general over time. like i said you need the numbers at the lower age groups and give the to coaching they need to become quality players. they are already leaving because of to few player spaces.
like any investment it takes time but needs to be planned out. look at the young numbers and adjust the team numbers and age brackets as they develop through the age groups.

I agree Lefting.
Why not structure it like the Mens/Youth NPL 13-16/18,Res,1sts ? There’s a huge gap between current 17’s and seniors at the moment, why do the girls not get a chance to further develop physically and technically before making the move to Reserves and Firsts ?
The only reason is ground availability I’d imagine. There’s just not enough room in Newcastle for the game to grow. Northern want the game to grow but seem to be happily continuing down the easy road as they have always done.
Spot on GL.Quote:

There are fields there from what i can recall not being utilised that could be developed to a synthetic field complex. could possibly put 3 pitches there. Food for thought.

We can’t produce a Marta when players from lower economic backgrounds can’t afford to play..
The pyramid is backwards in Australia, until that is fixed I believe there will always be minimal youth development and a small pool of talent to pick from as the ages go on..
Clubs can’t do it on there own
Maybe not a Marta, but definitely Sam Kerr, Ellie Carpenter, etc…….Quote:

You are all kidding yourselves if you think this is a premier competition, it’s clearly just a buy the plate for first grade comp.
Northern gives it a ‘premier’ status but nearly every game has a blow out score!
Check the scores from the NSW NPL, nothing of the like.
Definately NOT a premier competition but NNSW can say they have Women's Premier league to the FA.Quote:

I think all agree that the competition is not where it needs to be with depth and development. Buying comps seems to be the way to go and it will be interesting if the current dual NPL/NPLW programs survive post Women's World Cup. I hope Buds keep the kids they have and continue to support development. Northern need to intervene and enforce a draft and some rules on player points. Or double figure scores on NBN and stale trophies will continue to dominate across 2 teams year on year. It's just the teams that change...Quote:

Theres your truth that most arent game to announce.
Damn the peanuts are out today. Nothing jumps to the desired result without work and time to get there. Things are slowly getting better, there is no magic wand.
For those who want to keep comparing it to men's football, get a life.

You aren’t everyone terry, you’re a nobody.
I suppose these women playing football should be spending their time in a more useful way hey Terry ?
In the kitchen making sandwiches and ironing your undies perhaps ? 🤔

I'm wondering if it was because both grades managed to put one in the net against them or just the usual.
It’s pretty much expected behaviour at this point isn’t it?
Keelen to maitland again next year
They must have some $$
You can say what you like but those of us involved with the club and woman's program are very happy to have him back!!!Quote:

He has a reputation now that unless there is cattle he has little success. Fact. If Maitland are willing to splash the cash, all of the Warner's Bay crew take the drive out west. And so it goes unfortunately in the NPLW. Good luck to him if thats where his football journey takes him.Quote:

DidnÂ’t see the game but IÂ’m pretty sure his view on the game would be correct.
Atowns coach/td is just a 80/90Â’s type coach with more badges.
“They can’t run without legs girls, go get em”.
Have their first team made finals since heÂ’s taken over?
Had to look back and it was 2017 since they last played finals football. (Not sure when the new staff took over)?
Looking forward to the Maitland vs Atown games again next year. The technical area battle is usually better than the one on the field.
Should be a good competitive finals series. Bay should go on and do the double, but I think on a good day any of the top four could win it.
