    A nicer person you won't meet and very capable coach who has simply run into a tough year.
    Seems you took the words right out of Graham's mouth!

    Maybe karma is visiting them for calling the game off 2 weekends ago against Valentine on the Saturday before their ffa cup game, when no other ground in newcastle was called off.

    Considering all games need to be played before next sunday ( well I think that's how it used to be ) , they may now need to play two catchups next week along with their last game next Sunday. Or will NNSW bend the rules and give them the Wednesday after the comp has ended ???? hhhmmmm

    Representatives from Valentine were present for the pitch inspection when originally postponed

    Yeah they got there just after all the sprinklers were turned off. Have no problem with them having that game off to prepare for such a big game where they made the whole region proud, but surely they would not be given any lenience in having games played by next Sunday to be fair to our competition.

    Was just confirmed on Edgeworth's Facebook page. Wondering if they'd have to pay the same amount as some team's that have trained and played there during pre-season and what not. Fortunate for them as a wash-out would have created a backlog of games to play.

    Yes, but emerging jets are using the full sized fields for training... Games to be played on small fields... 5 players per team halfs as normal but team that played first half cannot play second half. keeper remains for both halfs. referee to hang from netting like spiderman.

    this is my take on the grounds situation, NNSWF employ a turf/soil consultant, this consultant then does inspections of all grounds, lets say only npl at this stage, he does soil inspections, grass description , checks drainage, checks the field for level etc etc, he then gives a detailed report to NNSWF of each ground with an itemised structure on how to treat each ground and a total cost (approximately) put in place, all clubs are required to submit a strategic business plan in their submissions for the NPL but how many clubs cover grounds in this plan, zero I'd say, clubs are then given a strategic plan with costs outlayed on the best way to prepare each field to bring it to a standard where it becomes easy to maintain and and stand up to most weather and heavy traffic, just a thought, would love to hear from someone who may work in this field to gain an idea on how difficult or easy this would be, I'm sure most tom, dick and harry's who do their best preparing their local fields each week would love some help.
