If you're going to replace players don't you go for someone that is better in that position? Runge is a long way from being a top NPL keeper.
Josh Lowe couldn't get in Azzurri 19s a couple of years ago, now in a First Grade GF against Magic on Mcdonald Jones Stadium. Coaches need faith in young blokes instead of " names " like Zany does. Im sure runge will do a job.
Been NYL keeper for the Jets and Gypos the laat few years
Jets called him up to fill in the other week in their trial at Maitland V Gypos
So someone other than you must rate him highly
Have seen very little advertisements regarding the NPL grand final.
He got called up because the top four teams were in the playoffs and wouldn't release their keeper even if they were asked. He is a product of the Goldman academy so that would help for a call up.
Can’t read we’re I said he was the best keeper in the NPL, so not sure what you are on about
But I will say players going to clubs is often very much a coaches call, if coach is comfortable with a player in a position, happy with how they play that position and believe that they will fit in with the coaches philosophy, then that might be a better solution than the “best” player
goldman academy
Since the big day is nearly upon us. Who is going to win
My predictions
Jets 3-0
Maitland to win on pens
Edgy 2-1
Sounds about right.
Last 3 years Edgy have ended Magics season
2017 on Pens in the semi
2016 2-1 in the GF without Piddo playing who was injured
2015 away goals in the semi
Magic have been incredibly stiff luck wise against them as the results could easily have gone the other way
They also havent beaten them in quite a few years
I thinking that will change Saturday night
Olympic in the 20s
Jets in the 18s
Two days out from the big dance and it’s a ghost town in here. Maybe someone should have accused someone of doing something on the pitch so everyone had something to talk about.
It's football, not s***er!!
Well Azzurri have confirmed Goodchild and Smith are staying put at Azzurri
So there goes the rumour of Maitand reunion for Goodchild at Bolch
to be brutally honest the second they took it away from sunday arvos it fell off my list of 'must do events'.
yes thats lazy of me, but for anyone who has gone to McDonald Jones to watch it, are the crowds any bigger? is it a better event?
I agree. I’m a bit more excited for the zone premier league grand final; Suns v Kotara at magic on Sunday arvo.
Didn’t get to the NPL gf last year, but will be there this year. Won’t make judgement on the atmosphere until I’ve seen it first hand.
It's football, not s***er!!
Last year KO was at 7:00 or 7 :30 or something like that
It was ****ing freezing there in the late arvo as the sun set
All right for the clowns in the Corporate Box out of the elements but not good for the plebs
This year they have brought it forward an hour or so hopefully not as bad
Ticket prices increased and booking in advance was dearer than walking up on the day thanks to all the booking fees
Crowd was noticeably down last year and atmosphere sucks
3/4k at Magic Park is a good thing
3/4k at Stade de Griffo is a joke
I for one think if they going to have it there they need to go back to the 3 pm KO for First Grade
Needs to be on a stand alone weekend. 3 divisions of Zone Leagues have their finals on the same day and one after it the following day.
I know for myself I'll be on the tins all day then into the evening I'll be either celebrating or commiserating with my mates after their game.
Hearing 2 departures from Olympic.
Tom Davis - Maitland
Jacob Bailey - Adamstown
Hodges to Azzurri
