2013 Zone League 1 Thread

[ace22]

I know its early in the season but it looks like Morrisett and Belmont will be battling it out for the bottom place. If Belmont are struggling for numbers it could be a long season for them once a few injuries, holidays etc start to play there part. ive heard nothing about morrissett on here.

Bero and Wallsend appear to have improved since last season. We play bero this weekend and they are always tough to beat up there, especially first grade.

Raymond Terrace i think will surprise a few teams, especially the first time you play them. they have quite a few handy players and very quick blokes up front. They finished very well on the weekend but we bounced back to nearly claim a point. I thought it was a story of 2 halves, terrace dominated 1st half and deserved their 3-0 lead (im pretty sure they struck the post also). Second half we adjusted and got a few goals back to make it 3-2 and were unlucky not to get more with hitting the cross bar 3 times. Great free kick from terrace created the chance for the 4th and we scored another penalty to make it 4-3 and we just ran out of time!

its early days for all teams but i think it will be quite a competitive competition this year.

belmont have the numbers now full squad nearly . got a heap from phonex etc. got them all within the last 2 weeks before the comp now there overflowing and the team i moved to is struggling way more with 39 on the roster.

They said nelson bay improved a heap since winning zl2. And i think belmont will beat morriset and kahibah. After seeing kahibah play. But we shall see.

No hard feelings ace. The 2 lads your referring to from Warners Bay 1 of them actually played at Suburb 2 seasons ago and his 2 brothers are still with us the other is a good friend of a few of the boys and wanted a change. Nothing much to it other then that hope that answers your question

Had nothing to do with a coaching issue at WB?

Is Gilla still coaching at WB? great coach..

Sure it helped I know both blokes liked Gilla but as you already know what's going on its not my place to say. All I can comment on is why they choose Suburb

[Hiratio_Hufnagel]

HAHAHAHAH.. As I said.. Nothing..

Anyway, back on it..
After the Round 1 results there are some very interesting games coming up this weekend..

Raymo Vs Suns
Belmont Vs Kahibah
Gardo Vs Mo-town
Bero Vs Kotara
Wallsend Vs Nelson Bay

Gardo to score double figures this weekend

Ace where did you get this information from Bay Winning ZL2?

[amishpanda]

Raymo Vs Suns
Belmont Vs Kahibah
Gardo Vs Mo-town
Bero Vs Kotara
Wallsend Vs Nelson Bay

Raymond Terrace
Kahibah
Garden Suburbs
Berro
Wallsend

Interesting, most could go either way. I would say only a suburbs win is a safe bet. I like any team with pace against the suns. Kahibah may have players returning, know nothing about either team. Berro to do well at home. Wallsend vs the dark horse? Wallsend will edge it out I suspect.

Hmmmm.. Well this is definitely news to me..
If cheddar has been offered, its definitely been kept on the down-low (or just not to me, cause I'm not worth it, hahahaha)..
If anything its the opposite. I know players were offered money to go to other clubs, and they rejected it for whatever different reasons (loyalty, atmosphere, coaching, great bunch of blokes, social idiocy that the boys get up to, etc..)

Surely they are paying you to keep those luscious locks Bon?

They tried paying him to shave.
He spat on Fridge just for asking.

Those locks are only bettered by Slobs, sorry Bon but Slobsy's mane is just divine

Suburbs have never payed players and I would be surprised to here that it was occurring now. In the past not even rego has been payed for players. I'd be betting that Chinese whispers have kicked in.

Such an awesome club though, I am not surprised people are queuing up to get in.

Don't need to pay players with a club culture like suburbs u turn up for one training session n they make u feel like part of the family in a second that is why players love playing there football there!!

ment to be say raymond terrace . Im not posting on the drink anymore which coutns me out most nights. so many active people in this zl1 thread makes it interesting. The premier one has barely anything ever going on.

[Bon]

I'm sure you had a highlighter on our fixture this weekend soon as they came out to

Well, I played for Mo-town for 21 years, so its going to be quite a strange feeling playing against them for the first time..
Not sure how I'll feel about it on Sunday, haha..

didnt think i should be posting second hand information like that to do with money. but u got to it quick so ill answer.

Thats half of what the forum is for!!!!

I'm just flattered that you even mentioned me in the same sentence as Slobs.. The blokes plumage makes my giblets tingle..


Back on topic..
Gardo Vs Motown games are still on Sunday, but have been moved back an hour. So 3rds are at 10:30, Ressies at 12:15 and 1sts at 2pm.
Then boozing back at the razzle in time to see the Gypos choke again..

[Gary]

My round 2 tips(honest tips,I do not intend to offend any club):
Raymond 3-suns 2
Belmont 2-kahibah 2
Gardo 8-mo-town 1
Bero 5-kotara 2
Wallsend 4-the bay 1

I'd like to put $5 on Bon to score a header off a corner..
I'd also like to wish all clubs all the best for the weekend & the season,it would be nice to see a few upsets this round so if any club would like to make me eat my tipping words then that's be great

[Guiltykeep]

Bon surely only paying $1.90 to get a header
