I see the mid season split has seen a bit of player movement again this year.Sounds like its just going to be how it is from now on.For the record I dont have an issue with it.

I heard with two clubs movements occurred because the coach was fired and those players weren't happy with that.
When is the rego cutoff?
I've heard of a coach sacking (or similar) at a DivA U13 team and if true... just wow.
Ok for you morons who cant comprehend english then get all defensive.
Point was the coach was allowed to try to influence a game and pressure the young ref to favour his team.
Why are coaches or team officals getting away with this. NNSW should be ensuring no club is pressuring the ref.
And my point was that you named one example that in your opinion was a young referee being influenced by a coaches behaviour(it is possible that the other team just played better in the second half and won the game fairly).My point is that there are many cases with factual evidence of young referees not being intimidated by coaches.So across the hundreds of games per weekend you are upset by one instance then thats fine but dont disregard the rest of the games that are done at the appropriate level.So if you are after perfection in the refereeing ranks then thats great but can we also get rid of the players,coaches and parents that arent good enough as well?
With so few games left of our very tiny season, thought I?d take a look at the Div 2 standings (Pro/Rel battle - most interesting part of the comp)
Northern may not have updated all recent games (Charlestown and South Cardiff 18s has not been updated (was a 2-0 win to S.Cardiff, but rather than tinker I?ve left as per Northern?s records?looks like very few 18s games have been updated)
1: Cooks Hill (GD+12)
2: New Lambton (GD+17)
3: Belswans (GD-5)
4: Northern Inland (GD-2)
5: Charlestown (GD-5)
6: Weston (GD-4)
7: South Cardiff (GD-17)
8: Mid Coast (GD+4)
Weston and Mid Coast have the lowest numbers of games recorded (10 each?highest is 14 games)
Points would help too, how fare ahead is Northern Inland to Charlestown? 1 point? 9 points?
Thanks, that looks pretty tight then, New Lambton to go up and I'd put in Cooks Hill as well. Only 4 points between 3rd and seventh
4 rounds down and I think the only clubs who can confidently plan for next year are New Lambton in Div A and Weston+Southy in Div B.

Rumour is Dudley and South Maitland are applying for JDL and/or PYL licenses for 2026...
NNSW pushed Nelson Bay for a license due to a need for some sort of development team in that area but haven't heard any word from the club, nor any rumours circulating
Does anyone have some inside knowledge of when the 5th/6th and 7th/8th 'play off' games will be played?
Any word on when they announce any new PYL teams. It was meant to be a few weeks ago if you go off what Northern posted as a timeline
