Jaf JAf, why are you arguing with a faceless bloke on a forum? Sensible people would acknowledge after a period of heavy rain that sometimes a pitch may be unplayable. Here is to you beating Magic next Wednesday night.

But your right. Said my say now.
Looking forward to the magic game. Hopefully we can make it a good game. Hopefully the rain stays away!
Makes one wonder how is Edden Oval going to cope over the whole season. The fact is that it has been pretty much dry weather for the past few weeks, we had a bit of rain over the past week (I think it was mainly Wednesday and Thursday)but there was no rain at all in the 24 hours prior to Saturday (I live in Lambton and there was no rain at all on Friday). If we have another wet Winter, like we have had for the past 4-5 seasons, Jaffas are probably realistically going to have to play their home games elsewhere.
Why are people so concerned about Eden oval, the man explained the problem and I'm sure it will be fixed, please move on
Or Woman? Good luck and i hope you beat Magic too, but as long as the game is entertaining. I have no allegiance to either one of those clubs.
Sensible people would wonder why all the other State League games were played and only Jaf Jafs games were called off. Sensible people would be wondering what the hell is going on at Arthur Edden that will prevent them from playing a game when it rains 3 days prior.
1. Cant play because ground unplayable = ground CRAP. BOM data shows rainfall of 69.8mm on the Thursday 4th and 8.4mm on the Friday 5th of April. Quite a fair bit of rain in such short period. And yes if the problem with the field was something that happened in the last month this would be great but we had over 167mm of rain on the 1st and 2nd of March. Strange this problem did not show up then.
2. Maybe he will be available, maybe he won't, but having JM playing in your side is a game breaker. I will wait and see if the game is played mid week.
3. Didnt know drainage problems even after the down poor we had in March and yes it may have happened since then. Leaking sprinklers are not the problem as the sprinkler lines are not charged with water unless you have the pump running and the sprinklers on. Not saying it was anyones fault but maybe the sprinklers were left on or malfunctioned?
4. You made the point about Edgeworth i mearly stated that thay made a great call.
I do not know it all, and im not about getting anybody on technicalities, sounds childish to me. I do however agree with MKFS that the "SHIT" begins.
Forever Red - this will be a problem mark my words...
Southy 3- CCB 3
Southy were on fire first half. 3-1 at HT, looked like it could get embarrassing for CCB. Southy underperformed 2nd half and struggled to clear the ball out of their own half. CCB would be happy with the draw, Southy will count it as the one that got away.
Bomb from Alex Pichalof as well to equalise.
Wow!! You're really looking for some suspicious activity aren't you!!
If the gorund was playable on Saturday, plus available on Sunday and playable...the Jaffas would have played!
Facts are, ground wasn't playable Saturday and still wasn't playable Sunday for Newcastle Football!
Also to correct your rubbish knowledge of a Club you know nothing about!! The ground has been the same for the last 5 years since re-turfed. Adequate drainage was not installed by NCC at this time and the ground has always had problems with wet weather on the far side.
That being said, the Jaffas in last few years have consistently provided one of the better surfaces in the top 2 divisions and have always played their matches in accordance with the rules established by NNSW.
This has and will not change and any ridiculous conspiracy theories are just baseless tripe from someone who has no clue!
Well said
+1 It happened, deal with and move on. Not everyone has the same facilities as Magic do.
And it's nice to see CStein is being positive about Edden Oval
Middleby Gone
Lawrie Out
Can you imagine Forever Red if they are all back to play Southy next week and then rested again the week after?? Meltdown would be epic!!!

Its just a shit way to start the NBN League and it annoyed the hell out of me, and still does
Let the truth be known i cant wait to see Johnny Maj on the park, and when he does he will be the game winner for the Jafs regardless of who they play.
