Good to see Dudley & Warners Bay hold their own against NPL1 opposition.

That Azzurri comeback is just insane though. To be a fly on the wall in the Toronto sheds at full time.

Calling it early Suns, Dudley, Warners Bay & Kotara will all be playing finals football. Who will be the 5th team to join them? I think Cardiff might be a roughie

Are you trying to suggest that Croatia are paying players to be there and they are not just playing because they love the club?

Suns played Warners Bay in last seasons grand final as well so ZL1...

Not a great start to the season by Mayfield

Any chance of a cupset amongst those fixtures?

I literally said that realistically only one of the A-league clubs can win the whole thing.

Once again though by your logic what?s the point of the lower teams even entering it if they don?t have...

Poor attitude. By your logic no one other than the top A-league sides should take this competition seriously because they are the only ones realistically capable of winning it.

Maybe read what I wrote properly before blurting your rubbish clown

Did Dudley not get to last years GF? Yes

Did they battle past the team that finished last in the previous season? Yes

So...

For the Suns maybe. Dudley failed to get to last years GF and by all accounts last weekend struggled past the team who should have been relegated last season.

So just like last year and the year before that.

What happened in the lower grades? Dudley were practically invincible in 3rds and Res last year. Bit of a shock seeing them drop points in both in the first hit out of this season.

Any other scores today?

Crofty and Lofty haha play nice you two

Mayfield 3-1 Olympic
Azzurri 2-0 Swansea
Suns 6-1 Uni
Westlakes 1-3 Warners Bay
Cardiff 1-3 Dudley
Kotara 3-0 Minmi

Seems as though the Croats are still some way off being a team capable of stepping up and competing in this competition.

Yeah you actually did to be fair haha

Who do we think would want to go up from the current division? Suns and Dudley are the two powerhouses of the comp but I get the impression they are both comfortable where they are.

Could see...

Don?t forget that I was the first one to mention optional promotion from Zone league 1 to NPL 2 though :wink:

Stop it now you are talking too much sense

Its such a simple solution. Promotion from Zone league 1 to NPL 2 should be optional and not mandatory. This does not deny the opportunity for any Zone league team with the ambition to go up and...

So were Croatia really good or Lakes really poor or a bit of both? Either way Lakes currently pre season favourites to face the drop.

Good point I?m struggling to think of too many clubs in the current competition who would want rid of thirds.

Off the top of my head
Suns
Dudley
Warners Bay
Mayfield
Uni

These clubs as far...

Are you taking into account the zone teams dont always play their best players either? A lot of these fixtures are midweek and the reason some of these guys play at zone level is because they can?t...

Are you taking into account NL1 matches against any zone league opposition or the just the ones against ZPL opponents. Because of course that would make a massive difference.

Either way the...

Judging off the last 5 years the results you?re talking about would appear to be an anomaly. Because in previous years I would argue that the zone teams have a better record against NL1 opposition....
