FFA Cup - NNSWF

[NewyTy]

Thanks posting. You covering any of these games, good sir?

Not sure if this was directed at MonkeyKplunk or myself but I'm thinking it's me. I'll be covering both days and hopefully get a lot of photos and maybe some interviews. Will be a test of mental fatigue to watch that much football (especially two fields at once) over two days but I'm keen.

As for now I'm tipping Swansea to dump Belswans out for the second straight year, Beresfield will knock Toronto out, Thornton and Singo to ease through ZL3 opposition and Mayfield Seniors to lap Bolwarra-Lorn (no offence to those ZL3 teams). Will put up tips for all games sometime next week.

Forgot about that game. I wouldn't be surprised to see Azzurri beat them. Azzurri v Magic in Round 2 would be interesting.

Azzuri have? I didn't realise they had played yet. Who did they play?

It is a bigger call considering Barnsley knocked off Cardiff ZPL last weekend scoring 4 against them.
Will certainly make for an interesting round 2 clash though if they do!

Played Cardiff zpl 4-3 lost I heard and then mussy
And yes Barnsley did beat Cardiff but it's preseason and all that road running will pay off to show a result like that

Tenambit have withdrawn from the FFA cup game against Jesmond according to their face book page.

Its an interesting theory...
Azzuri results pre season mean they are good even though they lost. But Barnsley beating cardiff, its only pre season and it means nothing?

Long balls and road running, do you know guys at barnsley? Sounds like you have the inside word!

Regardless of that, it sounds as though Azzuri have a strong team and are going to be pretty successful in L3, which is what everyone wants from new teams coming in.

I am looking forward to this weekends games and hope to catch at least a couple. I expect a number of upsets as some teams won't be as ready as they need to be to play competitively particularly on the fast synthetic pitches.
Fearless predictions:

Garden Suburb v Kotara
Maryland Fletcher v Wallsend
Dudley jnrs v Muswellbrook
Mayfield snrs v Bolwarra
Azzuri v Barnsley
RAAF v Simba
Nelson Bay v Beresfield jnrs
Thornton v Edgeworth Jnrs
Raymond Terrace v Westlakes
South Cardiff v Cessnock
Lakes v Cardiff City
Cooks Hill v Dudley Snrs
Stockton v West Wallsend
Beresfield Snrs v Toronto
Uni v New Lambton
Warners Bay v Morisset
Medowie v Mayfield jnrs
Kahibah v Suns
Charlestown jnr v Singleton
Swansea v Belswans

Some really interesting match ups...I even surprised myself by tipping that 3 NewFM teams will be gone after this weekend.

You expect some upsets yet the only upset you really tipped is Swansea to beat Belswans... Bero to beat Toronto is pretty debatable that it would be called an upset.
I do, however, agree with every single one of your tips!

I'm also tipping Bero Juniors to get up over Nelson Bay. Plus adding Westlakes over Terrace and based on absolutely nothing, throwing in Stockton to upset West Wallsend.

Love the Cup!

Correct me if im wrong but i feel Jesmond havent played a first round match in the FFA Cup yet

Hey LRO.
I expect some upsets but that doesn't mean I can pick them.
My picks are based on form/knowledge but I expect that to go out the window in at least a few games.
That is the beauty of Cup football, results can be unpredictable.

Likely upset contenders in my mind are:
Warners Bay over Morisset
Kotara over Garden Suburb
Cessnock over South Cardiff, and
Azzuri over Barnsley.

Promotion vs Relegation match our boys are keen as. I won't make a prediction as I may be biased, however look at the ladders for both teams last year and see what that tells you 😉
