Hopefully the weather is better for the Olympic game and a bigger crowd turns up. Local teams need support even if it’s the only game of the year you want to see them win

What an embarrassing performance …. 11 man camped in there 18 yard box. Didn’t even try an have a crack.
Very poorly coached.
Chalk and Cheese to how Zane approached the game last week.
Embarrassing is the first word that springs to mind
“Newcastles premier club” as they say
Bunch of w@nkers all walking around yesterday in their suits trying to look important as they suck up to the Lord Mayor to gain more funding to their ground. If only they spent half their efforts into trying to field a first grade team..
If that’s the squad they are going to field in 2022, Joel and his men are going to have a long year.. reserve grade team at best.. disappointing for “Newcastles premier club” 🤣🤣🤣
I want to be completely upfront here and say that I am an Olympic supporter. I went to the game on Saturday night and watching the game plan that Griffiths dished up made me sick. That negative crap is now what the national audience thinks of when they think of Olympic. Not to mention the fact that he sh*t on quite a few players that were a massive part of them getting there in the 1st place. He shouldn't be coaching under 12s, let alone NPL.
Some absolute genius coaches here. Olympic are a local NPL team who had 4 weeks to prepare to play against a Top professional outfit in MacArthur who were still training in lockdown. They had Mutch, Davilla, Da Silva, Noone, Meredith, Oar. All very good top tier players in the A League.
What did you want Olympic to do. If they went all out and played like they would on a weekend against other local NPL competitors, go all guns blazing playing out and sending people forward and got beat by 7/8/9 goals, all you heroes would’ve battered them for that anyway. Okay they probably should’ve tried to go forward more but they definitely didn’t “embarrass themselves” conceding 3 goals against those quality players under 4 weeks training and one warm up game.
One of you saying it’s a reserve grade squad is laughable.. they’ve made the semis more times then not in previous years.
Go out and have a crack maybe? Rather then parking 11players inside your box for 90mins, they would get a lot more credit from people getting pumped by a cricket score if they went and actually had a go considering the circumstances rather then approaching it the way they did.
Made the semis more times then not?
They have made the semis once in the last 4 years🤣🤣 and that was in a shortened covid season
2021 7th
2020 3rd (covid year where season was cut in half)
2019 7th
2018 5th

This made me laugh. I thought they must of ducked away from a “Greek wedding” with the suits. There is a few well known tosses which would have influenced this that think they are above everyone. Looked silly really I don’t think ALeague clubs wear suits anymore. It gives them a sense of importance for their own egos. From what I am hearing a few unhappy past and present players.
The TD, their reserve grade is full of blokes who will never play first grade, joel tried to move a couple on but was told he couldn’t so most of last years 18s moved on for a better chance and most ended up at cooks hill, when the committee under mines the coach then things can’t be good.
All this negative talk sounds like a few people trying to create a problem rather than reporting on an actual problem. Only actual fact mentioned was a negative defensive approach to last Saturday's game. Who cares if someone wears a suit, and apart from a lot of young players being selected in Jets and Mariners academies, who has left to go to other clubs?
