That being the case i wouldnt be surprised to see Lindsay Tapp follow piggo to Charlestown as his assistant
As for your point about Lakes have more inside parking. The reason they have this is they have nothing there other than a termite riddled grandstand in need of demolition. Lakes have been a joke of a club for the last 20 years other than the occasional year they have bought a team. The rest of the time they have been bottom end getting shit crowds and having shitty junior side. Also we don't need cars in the ground at the GF we need spectators. Magics capacity is more than big enough with no cars on site.
The gripes on here about Central Coast Phoenix are justified but Lakes seem to escape the wrath for their shortcomings. (Probably cause no one cares enough to hate them)
As for your points about the other clubs
Azzurri - Too small no parking for 3-5k
Southy - Not in a 2 sided chicken coop
Olympic- Unless you let the crowds out on the other field where is 4k gonna fit in there??400 people there and it appears packed
Weston have done **** all to their facility in 20 years. The reason you feel it has a Sunday arvo feel about it is Kurri is stuck in a time warp period
Edgy- Have some stands for seating but they also have a 3 sided ground. WTF??
Valo - You have too be ****ing kidding me. There ground is that shit they shouldn't be playing in the comp
Westy - What facilities are there??
Adamstown Another ground stuck in a time warp with piss poor management with the junior base and history they have that they can't get and stay in NBN level
End of day the GF is at the best venue if it is at Wanderers. Also when you walk into Wanderers Oval you actually field you are at a football ground
The rest of the clubs and their supporters should spend less time on here bitching about it here and go fix their clubs and grounds up so they can have decent facilities. As I have said before most of these grounds have barely changed in the last 20 years other than getting more wood rot from the termites
Forever red, has southy changed the date of your rescheduled match with the jets. I thought it was this thurs
Maybe the member has taken kale on holiday through the streets of Kotara and maybe a day trip to south to visit sanchow
So Kale and his new Member on there honeymoon.
Of course they don't, but ask HCCF and the other rebel leagues how easy it is to survive away from FFA and their umbrella organisations.
Imagine if Lambton were to go rogue (not that they would), but I doubt NNSWF would allow the Juniors to still participate in the Interdistrict competitions and SSF. So there goes approx 18 competition teams alone from Lambton alone (u/12s up). So at an average of 15 teams from each club bar Jets, you're looking at approx 120 leagueless teams. Sure, the A-graders will be fine with most A grades from each age group going rogue, but how about the kids in the 13/F? They wouldn't want to get their arse kicked each week, so they would leave the club for a NNSWF club where they can play to their standard. This would mean less money for each club to develop their juniors, resulting in a lesser competition.
Plus where would they get their referees from? I doubt many referees would join an organisation where they are at their highest rank already, when if they stay in NNSWF, they may some day be appointed to higher games (A-League etc).
So you aren't just talking about moving the NBN teams out of NNSWF, you're talking about moving their Junior clubs too, and trying to organise those matches as well. Who would do that? From what I've seen, most NBN teams just care about themselves, no thought is given to the juniors. Plus I doubt NNSWF would look kindly on any club that did do such a thing.
I really hope you weren't being seriously.

Can assure you Lakes aren't in financial troubles, players were simply told to perform or they wouldn't be getting paid is what iv'e heard. Thus the recent improvement in results this must be true.
some games scheduled midweek have been called out already, surely there hasn't been that much rain, Charlestown have even canceled games for thursday, crazy, it could be sunny for the next 2 days, clubs need to start playing otherwise who knows what could happen, no point having a prestine pitch if you don't play on it, c'mon, get the footy going
