can someone confirm to me how these HAL academies sides in the NPL works? 

i have noticed several A-league players playing on saturday for example then they are eligable to drop down and play for their NPL team on a sunday. 

if thats the case, then i dont agree with that at all. 

They have to be U-23

hey tFl, I see Fraser putting a EOI in.

Yep, interesting times ahead!

been going on for years.  

quality of the npl side each week very much depends on who drops from the a-league squad.

All players that drop down now have to be U23 or can they also have a few over age?

The age used to be U21

Better performance by both Marconi and APIA this weekend. Early days, but Romero looking  like a big big loss for APIA, after bagging the goals in early rounds, just Barley managing one since he’s left 

Every goal of the round.  :cool:

APIA & Marconi not getting results against the "Bulls Academy" and Sutherland is a surprise. 

lol @ the Bulls 'academy'

good to see the academy sides down the bottom, i hope they all get relegated. 

top of the table clash this week. I feel like APIA will run away with this title, too strong.

APIA with two losses on the trot, The gap is now only 4 points with 4 games to go.

Bulls Academy, all but gone, WSW & Druitt fighting to stay in the comp.

APIA need one more win & they take the title.  Their next game is against Sydney FC. 

any news on player movements, clean outs for next season?
