    All self inflicted for Charlestown Blues City Azzurri Highfields Wolves FC.
    Time and time again politics and egos undermine success.
    Hard to sympathise when the same thing happens time and time again.

    You have to kidding Football, as if. If they stepped in more often their decision on who to have in the comp would be far easier, they just don't get it!!

    Honestly I hope Law is smart enough to walk away. Why would anyone want the job, from what I know, still two parties fighting for control of committee, which ever party wins will still have the other party sniping away, this is a long way from being settled

    Yeah I know, and I’m sure other coaches would love the time that affords Zane

    But they don’t and he does take full advantage, so kudos to Zane, et alios capiunt

    I can't imagine many players or coaches will be rushing to sign up for Azzurri at the moment.

    I cant seeing Jaffas turning this deficit around. Yeah they have the players but pressure will tell. 3-1 Edgy

    Magic Maitland take your pick.

    Jaffas to be over the line leading 3-0 in the 88th minute only for a dodgy penalty call to Edgy to lose 3-1

    With Evans back, I doubt Jaffa’s will get 3 shots on goal.

What Zaney has continually done and what Kew has done this year put them well in front for coach of the year.
    Kew did well to run 5th . Pascoe gone, but he will be fine for next year with the 10s of thousands he has spent on players for next year.

    Now that the season is all most dusted, to mine Johnno, coach of the year between Bolch and Zane, with Kew a mentionable without being able to make semi final football.
    Bolch in second year at Maitland has turned them around from a pub team, to a team who this year have qualified for the final 32cin ffa cup, won the club's first ever premiership and is one game away from Maitland's first ever appearance in a grand final.
    Zane has just qualified his side for a 5th straight grand final appearance incredible, plus made the round of 16 in the ffa cup.
    Possibly, if Maitland make the grand final, whoever wins it may get coach of the year

    Can’t disagree Hurra. Between Zane’s & Bloch both have done a great job, but I think you need to look who has developed players and brought them through and gave them opportunities to who hasn’t and relied on bringing players from other clubs to the club. Zane wins.

    Every coach brings players from other clubs Johnno.
    No difference for either of thesr coaches either, on balance Bolch has a similar squad with the addition of Wood Davies Cowburn. Not a big turnover of players realistically, and i believe young Thompson and Thomas have improved immensely this year, agreed last season bought 5 or 6 with him from Olympic.
    While Zane has done brilliant with young players, he has also bought plenty to the club. If you look at this year he has added Fabrizio, Oliver Smith ,Cavalieri, Gardner to his group. Then in last couple of years he has bought Josh Evans ,Josh Rose , McBreen, Byrnes , Saunders all to the club .
    Just an example of all clubs and coaches do the same thing Johnno , not just Tanch Bolch and Zads.
    But i agree with you that Zane is the best coach in the comp especially at bringing youth through the grades

    NPL football is franchise football, there is no club and no community support, hence transient squads and no supporters, barring mums and dads. It’s coach merry go round, samevrubbish just a different colour. For example , Jaffa’s have no zero home ground players, zero local support, except for the bbq chef

    Same with several clubs. Lakes next to no crowd. Valo the same. And some poor crowds at Maitland at times. Not so much second half of the season. Charlestown same.

    You might as well also throw in Adamstown Lambton . So that's over half of the competition. Weston have been poor for years, but were a lot better this season with some success.
    Really only Edgeworth Magic and Olympic, but i would also say that Magic and Olympic crowds have declined in the past 2 or 3 sessons

    Agree fully, I only named those with smaller crowds but all crowds down. Jaffa’s arguably the worst crowd numbers. Hard to say how much of that has to do with games being televised and how much to do with clubs changing and losing community support

    Agree with all the comments in this thread regarding crowds. Magic and Olympic have the largest crowds due to their ethnic backgrounds something FFA &NNSWF we’re trying to stamp out. Crowds are down in football at NPL and New FM seriously I don’t know how they survive. It’s followed on from A League trend. Not big numbers watching on Bar though I’d say these are more the football purists who can’t get to every game rather than a particular clubs supporters. Not good signs.
