    I only ask because I noticed on the news last night that the Jets are playing a trial against Coffs Harbour Allstars this weekend.
    Who would everyone's 11 be from Nnsw.
    4 3 3
    Pearce Olympic
    Wilson Magic
    Thomas Maitland
    Papas Jaffas
    Ensor Magic
    Cowburn Valo
    Pepper Cooks Hill
    Wells Magic
    Muller Olympic
    Crowley Maitland
    Thompson Maitland
    Great concept if it is a annual game.
    Pearce, Pepper and Cowburn. I think should not be selected as they had a chance and failed to take it.
    Most A-league coaches obviously feel they are not at that level or they would still be there

    Next week's final round games and still plenty to play for.
    Maitland (39) play Jaffas (38). Maitland win they are premiers. Jaffas win, then Magic (38), if they beat Lakes, can finish 1st on equal points with Jaffas but currently have a 1 goal better for/against. If Jaffas and Maitland draw, then Magic can still jump both with their own victory.
    Azzurri (34) and a bye next week seem to have wrapped up 4th spot unless Olympic can beat Weston by 4 or more goals. If Olympic (31) win they should be assured of at least a fifth place finals berth with Valentine (31) needing to beat Edgeworth (29) by a massive 15+ goals to jump Olympic. If Valentine and Edgy draw, Valo can still go through if Olympic lose. Edgeworth will need to win their game and hope Olympic loses to get through. If Olympic draw their game they will be safe in top 5 if Valo Edgy draw or Edgy wins (unless Edgy win by 14+ goals).
    Lakes (7) will need to beat Magic to avoid wooden spoon and hope that Adamstown (8) don't beat Cookers.
    Could be one of the best final rounds of football for a while. Certainly beats last years covid depleted season.

    Surely a game against Npl nnsw rep team makes more sense than this ?

    First grade fixture was always a bit tighter from memory.
    NNSW Youth select often beat the Jets Youth team.

    Think it’s a great initiative and something that hopefully could be used to promote eachother. Play it prior to finals, $25 ticket gives you access to the exhibition, an NPL fixture of your choice (work out some arrangement so the club gets the admission $$) and a Jets Opening game ticket. Or something to that extent.

    You will obviously have the issue of clubs not wanting their players to get injured etc but I think it could work well. Good opportunity for players too.

    Is it too early to declare a winner for this season? Well I am about to declare one anyway. The best canteen item from any NPL club goes to Lake Macquarie City for their City Burger. I am keen to know what other people think. Please don’t discount my choice until you have tried one (and no, I am not part of that club).

    I've heard it is very tasty. I'm yet to try it though. Always loved a burg at Olympic

    Weekend predictions?

    Jaffas 1 - 1 Maitland
    Lakes 0 - 2 Magic (Magic win the title)
    Olympic 2 - 2 Weston
    Edgeworth 3 - 2 Valentine
    Cooks Hill 1 - 2 Adamstown

    Both the title and the wooden spoon could be decided this weekend.

    And fifth finalist. 3 contenders for title, 3 for fifth finalist and 2 for spoon. On Devs predictions, Magic and Olympic get the rewards and Lakes the spoon.

    Since it is the final round, I think both the title and the wooden spoon will be decided this weekend

    Imagine the extra interest if there was relegation on the line?
