How was it unlucky day for the rams?
Would any of the rams players agree?
I heard rumours that nesbitt Oval is full of fishing trawlers as fisherman all over the city have heard that kotara players will bite with only the smallest amount of bait!Quote:

Not the 7-5 win I had anticipated. Boring mayfield.
mayfield have only had 1-1s with the rest of the top four havent they? sounds like they just park the bus and then bully the other teams.
Warners Bay have scored 4 against Suns. Although I suppose credit to mayfield defence - kotara shipped a lot of goals to suns didnt they?
Watched the Mayfield, Suns game.
After watching Mayfield a few times now I'm very surprised they are still undefeated and so high on the table. Just hit it long to three strikers all game long.
So the Kotara strategy?Quote:

Might be a game of forcey- backs next week. Mayfield vs kotara
Route One, still gets it done!
Replace the ball with a Frisbee?Quote:

Yeah who are they bought players
Actually all three grounds at Barnsley have drainage, the old ground the senior use to play on was the first done. Seems you've gone off half cocked.Quote:

Relax man it was wetQuote:

Too bad their results don't match their fabulous drainage!Quote:

Still don't see the irony, I said fix the drainage, instead of spending your money on players. Once again we at Barnsley have never spent money on players and have invested in drainage. Please explain the irony with that, because I've missed it somewhere.Quote:

Seems I've hit a nerve with you have I, you joined up just to point out what everyone knows, that our 1st grade is last. You got me that stingsQuote:

I'm not sure whether Lake Macquarie Council have introduced it, but Newcastle City Council have introduced a 'risk assessment tool (or some shit) regarding potential damage to a ground, and it is expected that clubs abide by this or face Council sanctions.
My assumption is that they have held conversations with Northern/Newy Football about this, otherwise clubs may be at each others throats regarding what is deemed 'playable'.
That was the case when the Barnsley v lambton game was called, the ovals committee was asked to make a blanket call for the whole weekend on a Friday afternoon, as Friday night comps where due to use the ground. They deemed it unsafe and ground damage risk to high so called it closed for whole weekend. Then new lambton came out on Saturday mid morning and said it couldve been used, they contacted the association. The association then stated we should've waited until last minute to make closure call for zone league games. This is my reason for calling clubs out, when they deemed it unfit the day before, with a clear forecast ahead.Quote:

I’m starting to think that promotion/relegation should come down to how good a club’s ground’s drainage is….
Yeah, lets not let football get in the way of grass.Quote:
