Pretty fair analysis of the game. Terrrace played a very physical game, which Suns tried to match, which until half time prevented them form playing Football. The play it long to the fast guys system works a treat for terrace. The "Lumberjack" as his called was incredible. Power pace and a good finisher. Suns Dominated the footballing side of things for most of the second half but with Terrace's ability to play that ball into space into Lumberjack the extra man counted for little. Suns also had arguably their best player injured after about 5mins of play. Terrace will be very hard to beat with the system they play. One things for sure this year the competition has risen by 3 fold in my eyes.

They are pretty good at playing to their strengths, seriously if you had a bloke that quick, lethal, skiful and strong wouldn't you just give him space and the ball? I rate myself as a speed demon and im sure RANGER09 will back me up, but i nearly shit myself at how quick he is, i had nothing. Terrace were definitely underrated too much coming into this, they've strengthened their defence a bit, and added another quick striker. Them being undefeated honestly has not surprised me, even though i tipped them to not be in the top 2....

Just sitting here watching the Tigersv vs Souths game, if you get a chance check out Marika Koribete from the Tigers in full flight, lumberjack has similar running style to this guy and is just as quick, Buddha I don't remember you being so quick, most times I remember you picking yourself up off the ground given that you were just a wee las at the time it was understandable, good to see you have put some beef on those bones of yours!

Have just been looking at the tables for all three grades and looks like this weekend is a top of the table clash in all three grades between garden suburb and wallsend. What are your thoughts on the games? From what i have seen garden suburb have a strong squad and alot of depth as do wallsend but the scores in res and thirds looks like suburbs have the goods and have alot of depth!

no disrespect when i say this but im very surprissed that suburbs have the best defence in the league as it stands well done to those boys,
i also think wallsend haven't really tested themselves yet, kahibah scored alot against them they draw with kotara who look to be struggling and only beat suns by 1 a team which dont look as strong as in previous years, will be watching closely over the next two weekends, i think there gonna have a very tuff time with the suburbs midfield and the terrace attack. Good luck red devils. Nelsons bay are looking like a team that will do well and take a few scalps

no disrespect when i say this but im very surprissed that suburbs have the best defence in the league as it stands well done to those boys,

3 goals against one bloke which every team will struggle to close down.
3 goals against Bero after 2 mins 1st defender got injured replace by someone that had already played a full game in reserves, after 50mins 2nd defender gets injured and the whole back line was reshuffled. Bero were also handed a very dubious penalty as well. Suburb have quite a strong defense with great depth Strikers win games Defenders win Championships

[Hiratio_Hufnagel]

Kotara have not been struggling, they have dominated half the game in all the games they have played this year, they just haven't been able to put away teams when they had the chance, and have played catch up football. They have a dangerous attack & will be moving back up the table when the consistency kicks in

Does this Lumberjack character have a name? Or is he a character out of the Monty Python movies?

Wallsends v Suburbs
1st 4-0
Was told
Res 4-3

both teams struggled to put passes together, very scrappy with few clear chances. Wallsend were the least atrocious and earned the pts

Anyone heard the result for Berro/mori?

If Berro got up - I do believe I picked a perfect round. Scores were pretty close too.

Belmont vs terrace - we played each other in ID2 last year, terrace have recruited well, new mobile midfield who pass well and do the most important thing, feed the forwards. Firstly , terrace are a heap better than last year, chalk and cheese, that english bloke is a good player and will keep the team on the ball for longer. secondly, lumberjack....****. Last year he was fast and shot hard and well, this year or against us a least he dropped back as attacking midfield. Got the ball and didn't hit the burners every time, but still scored 3 retarded missiles that were unstoppable and walked around players at 1/3 speed. He's a freak wasting his time at this lvl. Terrace have recruited well...but lose lez and the team would be no where. As opposed to other teams like suburbs and wallsend whom don't rely on and 1 player singularly but rather hurt everywhere. To the teams in the mix, good luck stopping him, not sure at our lvl anyone can.
Its a shame on promotion that we lose half our first grade team and recruit young blokes not up to first grade. its a great comp that we are spectators in
