Come one Why Blue, you are joking aren't you? Those two teams in that grand final played the worst football I have ever seen. Boot the ball long and chase the hell out of it, and may the quickest kid win. No skill, no quality and an absolute rubbish game!
Yeah. I thought it lacked something. That's right - skill.Originally Posted by Doggydingo
Would agree that the gf was not the best quality game of the year, believe me I have the DVD, but you guys could surely appreciate that is was a grand final, played that way, FFA guide lines thrown out the window on the way to jack mac
Also was wet and pitch was very boggy,so skill probably got lost in the mud
But judge them for the way they played through out the year not that one game
And now it seems both these teams are victims of thier success, both having lost players up to 19's , 4 from CCB and 3 I think from Weston, but good on the kids for having a go and good on the clubs and coaches for giving the kids the chance

Come on doggy man be fair
Was pouring rain, ground was a bog hole and it was a grand final were both teams wanted to win
What did you expect, really ?
I actually thought the conditions would have better suited Weston and probably did
Hay blue man did you buy a copy of the DVD that Weston organised ?
Good of them to extend offer to CCB

Yep thru Weston

Have watched once, wouldn't even know were it is now !!!!
Have heard that NNSWF have bought in a system to penalise clubs if youth give away red & yellow cards for decent
Heard a few variations but don't know details
Can anyone confirm
Thx
I assume you meant "dissent".
Penalising it appropriately in game should be the first step. Dish the yellows and if needed second yellows and should decrease.
Good move to crack down on it. Not sure if this is the best way.
My understanding is possible loss of 1st grade points for ref abuse in any lower/younger grade. Club officials, Coaches and players have to behave.
Punish the player first, then their team, then the club.
Escalate as necessary.
Don't think first grade should be affected.
Yellow card the offender, put them on a 3 strikes system in addition to the usual yellow card system.
3 instances of dissent resulting in a yellow card and they should be susoended.
I daresay that's enough to stop most of it. Then if it continues Dock the team points, then fine clubs.
I hope/think it's more of a scare tactic to make club officials and coaches more responsible for their actions. To make sure they are internally policing dissent. Which is a good mood. Officials and coaches abuse refs, players, especially young ones see this and think it's ok. Problem starts with their mentors/people they aspire to be like.
These are young, testosterone filled boys that want to win and be the best and are very passionate. Tempers will flare and even the most even manners player can have a meltdown. And to punish first grade for this is a bit harsh imo. And I hope/believe it would be for multiple offences that are unresolved and still commenting.
NNSWF will open a can of worms once they do take the first 2 points off a first grade, once the precedent is set they will have to stick to it and be consistent. This is something that NNSWF have never been very good at.
More good news from EJ's program with a 2nd player going down to the AIS
Great young player, nice kid, wish him all the best
I'm all for cracking down on dissent, especially younger players, nothing worse than seeing young kids abusing ref's
But this does seem to lack logic ??
Is it only NPL ??
Is it NewFM ??
Zone and community ??
If so what is penalty process for other comps ??
Also what about coaches ??
And then we have the spectators
No doubt the problem is getting worse and I applaude NNSW for instigating something, but address the whole problem
Magic 19s looking tired. Probably still recovering from playing against Emerging Jets who had to bring up some 13 year olds to cover their injuries.

outcome please, let me guess 1st grade players were used
harsh pup ernie

Out of interest, are Npl 15s and/or 17s coaches required to have any coaching licences?
I believe all coaches in NPL Youth are supposed to have some credentials behind them, not sure what exactly but clubs use it as an explanation for Youth fees ie, needing to pay accredited coaches
Certainly applies to WPL (my closest contact with NNSW at the moment), pretty sure it is across all NNSW competitions.
This year to coach NPL 13/17 you only need a game training certificate
