Champions league?? That's no where near prestigious enough to compare to the RSL CUP
Champions league?? That's no where near prestigious enough to compare to the RSL CUP
was at the ground late today(by defult, next door to the bowlo) a couple of dodgy patches, any more rain and i think it will be off thou.
sorry to upset my many fans i have out there, who cant wait for my(supposibly one sided match reports) hahahah i have gone back to playin golf, so wont be at as many games this year.
but i will still be throwin my two bobs worth in
Cardiff played Garden Suburbs for the Rsl cup in all grades.
3rds Cardiff 3-1
Good run for the young boys. Plenty of numbers ensures good competition for start spots.
Res Suburbs 2-1
Our guys are struggling to gel at the moment and it showed as Suburbs wanted it more.
1sts Suburbs 2-1
Suburbs will go well this year once they get game time together with there new signings. Two early goals shocked us and then we lifted. A lucky deflection got us into the game but the big issue was 4 clear chances wasted by us. We still haven't had all firsts on the park regularly so will probably not get anywhere until a few games into the season.
Great game played in good spirits and good crowd.
first round
New lambton vs barnsley
swansea vs dudley
mayfield vs uni
platsburg vs cooks hill
warnersbay vs cardiff

Ace are you at swansea?
I thought you guys were swimming in youth and from what I know about the club and I do know a lot of the people there you should have no problem. Have you had a mass walk out
thanks mate
After checking with a few people I found out what happened to some of the young lads from last year. Not good to hear you guys are struggling I hope you can pick up a few young blokes soon all the best for the season mate
you too . which club are you playing for or affiliated with?
Garden Suburb
guess i shall see you next season then if all goes to plan for you guys
Haha maybe there is a long way to go before that happens
Sounds like quite the dilemna mate...I guess with the rule changes you only really need 2 u/23's to play and another 4 on the bench (if thats the way your club is headed)....Our club is overall very disappointed with the associations decision to revert to basically a 3rd grade format, it pretty much kills any chances of promotion for ZPL teams (or the chance to be competitive if they are). We have continued with the u/23's vein though as it will be beneficial to our club, and will endeavour to have a maximum of 2 players over the age of 23 on our team sheet each week. Hopefully a lot of clubs have taken the same tack to ensure our competition continues to improve.
. From what ive heard they wish they were the same still under23s. But if they dont have the juniors staying what can they do. The facilities are good the club is good. But if that rule didnt change i doubt we would be fielding a team this season simple as that.
I very much doubt we have a player under 21 looking at the blokes. and only 39 registered atm. and plenty of people with commitments that take them away from games. We still need a player or to!

well lets not start on this again, U23's should never been introduced anyway, and if you think this will harm your chances of promotion think again. if you were to go into 2hd with your 23's you would be smashed as there is quite a differnce between our's and their's. As most know i was am still against bringing this into ZPL, we were actively bringing youth thru, 2 years ago NL v tigers you beat us at warners gay, 8 out of 14 were under 22. you still can promote youth it's up to you.
cheers
i also think theres enough grades with age restrictions . look at the 2 premier comps they have 17 19s and 23s ,firsts.
let zone leagues be open slather. Any youth with any chance of going anywere should make an nbn/newfm junior side anyway .
Barnsley
swansea
mayfield
cooks hill
warnerbay
very un educated predictions but ill run with them.
yep
