Grounds been shagged for a while m8,too much traffic consistently on it,Mens,women's,0'35s,athletics, schools,council upgrading the amenities block in March but knowing Cessnock council they probably won't water the field let alone re-turf it.

Oh I was referring to Bellbird. Sorry to hear about you folding hopefully you guys can recover in the future.Originally Posted by 11 herbs&spices
How can you say that about bellbird best ground ever loved the crowd the most
Raaf are keen as for it too
Merewether are after a trial (2 grades) for this Sunday as the club we were meant to play has pulled out. Also we were using their ground so obviously we will need a club with a ground. PM me please if any club interested
Putting the feelers out to see which teams still have spots available. Things arnt looking good where I am at the moment, and just looking to see what other options I have. I'm a GK and possibly have some on field players looking to come with. Cheers Cal
Interesting.
Normal season
Dudley 2nd
New Lambton 3rd
Raaf 4th
All good squads, new Lambton strong in reserves so strong depth. Dudley has the better top end players. Raaf has some quality too.
Raaf facilities poor. New lambton and dudley ok facilities. Probably favour New Lambton on depth , association with ZPL Squad and large junior base. But all 3 would be competitive.
Well all clubs recieved the email about Kurri Kurri dropping out and that alternative clubs had to apply to come up to ZL2.
So are Dudley, New Lambton or RAAF going to submit an expression of interest??
Merewether still have a few spots left if you're keen to come have a kick at training and have a chat with the coach. Training on Wednesdays at 6:30pm Empire park Bar Beach
Dudley no. We simply do not have the depth NL have as a squad. A few top end injuries would see us struggle and in my opinion NL are the best outfit to take the promotion. They are now a "super" club with a wealth of juniors and should really be able to provide a quality development plan. I know RAAF have big aspirations also but I fear there rotating squad and potential deployments is a risk. Our plan is to gain our way to ZL2 within next 2 seasons as we continue to build our squad. The very unfortunate news from Kurri and Tenambit also played a part. It would be fantastic to go up, but if we are not ready do we risk capitulation?
I heard a whisper that quite a few players got dropped at Wallsend already? Good signup numbers I presume?
We had more turn up for trials than expected. Alot different to last year thats for sure. Plus some returning players so the numbers are looking good.
Hows everyone else shaping up?
Super late notice and most likely clutching at straws here, but if any all age or Zone League teams are wanting to play a trial against Hamilton Azzurri ZL3 reserve grade tomorrow night (Friday 12th), we have an opening as the team we were playing has pulled out. Field is booked for 7.00pm kick off at Rathmines Oval.
If interested don't message me on here get in contact on 0432 097 729
Cheers

Westlakes v Toronto in John Beguin memorial shield.
Res vs U23's 3-0 westlakes
1sts 4-1 westlakes
From my understanding Toronto were very understrengthed in both grades but still put up a massive challenge and credit to them they pushed us right to the end.
Was a great day for football which was played in hard fought but good spirits.
Any predictions for the upcoming season? This is a wild guess going off limited pre season info and last seasons standings and will probably be way off come end of season
Top 4 in no particular order will be out of
Hamilton
Simba
Wallsend
Westlakes
Id expect uni and New Lambton to be pushing for the 4 as well.
Maryland Fletcher, Merewether, Medowie and Mussy fighting it out for mid table.
Wallsend are looking strong, will be interesting to see how Simba fair if challenged in a physical match
Any predictions for this weekend people..... ? I'll go with:
Olympic beat Mussy
Simba beat New Lambton
Mereweather draw Maryland Fletcher
Uni beat Medowie
Westlakes beat Wallsend
Hope everyone has a good start to the season.
Hamilton v Mussy
Merewether v Maryland Fletcher Draw
Uni v Medowie
Simba v New Lambton
Wallsend v Westlakes
