Glad to have anyone support their club or even compliment another club for good performance. Drongo, Fat guts, doubleslop and Breakfastlounge add nothing to the chat. Good on Maitland 17s for toppling Weston, but I wouldn't write Weston off either. A strong side despite their position on the table. Remember teams have only played 2 or 3 games.
Yes agree
I am suprised by Weston so far I thought they would be strong this year as they finished strong last year to make 15's gf, maybe like CCB lost a few quality players in key positions and new members haven't quite gelled yet
Only rd 3 so plenty of time, will be watching with interest
I was at the maitland v Weston 17s game and thought the game was fairly even in my opinion.maitland were dangerous on the counter.it did appear they played 4 4 2 and didn't look like they tried to play out from the back.
Spot on brewman, I ignore those mentioned they add nothing
Don't worry about Weston boys, couple if key players moved up from 15's to 19's and like blue man says for CCB these boys played key positions
But all will be good, just in time for your team, who ever that is.
Was that meant to be me?
Don't recall trying to add anything to the debate/my teams better than your team rubbish. I care very little about the banter that borderlines harassment and childish name calling in this thread. It's often confusing whether it's the 14 year olds themselves posting or their parents trying to live precariously through their child with the level of intelligence behind comments.
Please, don't get me wrong, there's a lot of good discussion in here. And much of it is respectful and knowledgable from passionate people within the NPL comp, but when it gets to name calling and personal attacks, that's when it turns to rubbish.
Agreed, you haven't added anything to debate. Just made sarcastic comments about others and thrown out the old chestnut "living through their kids" - a line most often used by those without kids or very underachieving kids. Sure I've taken a dig at others, but based on their ugly snipes, they deserve little else.
As for Weston, Maitland or any other team, I respect the efforts they have made to compete at this level. Some don't have the same depth of talent at this point, but I expect them all to improve over the course of the season.
Fair enough. Don't know if you've noticed but sarcasm around this forum is pretty commonplace. The internet can be a pretty dangerous place for those easily offended.
I don't think I'm wrong though. Most in this thread have children, coach, or have a strong club tie within the NPL competition. And it often turns into a dick waving contest. Then everyone gets offended and things get personal.
The mighty Apollo
Only 17's for me don't know anything about seniors
But yes Olympic certainly look strong and their 14's 15's have been a great team the last two years so would expect them to continue
Magic 17's will depend on what they are left with after 19's are settled I think, but always seems to be drama around this team so I stay away
Buds will be strong, jets started well but injuries ( in both 15 & 16 ) could determine their season
Weston will come good
Interesting observation Apollo, but will the Magic 17s keep playing seniors once their comp starts???
And Jimbo, you would have seen seniors playing if you had been at Magic 17 games over last 3 weeks. As for Emerging Jets, they will be more competitive because they aren't prepared to give even game time anymore. Will even promote younger players if weaknesses in their team aren't firing. Not a criticism, just an observation.
