Us reserves won a very difficult and fantastic game 2-1.

First's had a 1-1, and deserved to lose.

Yeah my k.o is 6:30 and First Grade is 8:15. I'm going to stay back to watch First Grade play, so I'll let you know how they both look. And like you said, being on the foothills of the mountains, i'm going to freeze my ass off watch the first graders play.

Haha your going to freeze there. Hawksbury arent a bad side hey. I cant believe that they are bottom of the table. Good luck mate if we werent training id come down

I got a 6:30pm kick off tonight at.......... Richmond!!! And somehow it's our Home Game, at Richmond... versing Hawksbury. So it's out home game at Hawksbury home ground... makes perfect sense...

Good man Pimpsta should come down for the top of the table match next week and have a cevap

go on luddenham

Yep, its definitely the exception those earning $1k+, but I'd say the average would be around $5-600/game or however the contacts were arranged...

Super League is the new WSL.

Premier League is and always will be semi-pro.

Training 3 nights a week and a couple hundred bucks a week with a few exceptions to players getting $1000+

Was and is semi pro... We had guys anywhere from $200-$1000/wk so its a nice little earner for 6-8mths of the year. Some of the ethnically backed clubs offer more than that as well. A current A-League player was offered $1500/wk cash and I know that for a fact. There is some big and decent money around...

Is the premier league fully professional, or is that still semi pro?

Super League being the old Winter League I'm guessing...

To fill you in, the hierarchy is now

Premier League
Super League
Division 1
Division 2

Hahaha! Yep, thats the one... Old school.

WSL? wow, we're going 5+ years back, hahaha.

Fair enough, cheers mate...

I spent a few years in the Winter Super League (which I'm assuming is similar to this 2nd Div) and a few more in the Premier League...

The second division has some quality players in it for example Luddenham has about 5 or 6 players that were in super league last year and a few from div 1 but in most cases the players you get from that level have some sort of downside mostly work commitments where they can't always train or maybe injury prone or just ill disciplined. The standard amongst the top teams is quite high lower teams are usually just runners.Luddenhams ground is not far from st Mary's. Yeah clubs still offer trials best bet if your looking is to go onto footballnsw.com.au and in the competitions drop box you'll find player trials where clubs advertise for players. Who did you play for? Some clubs do pay but not much

Cheers mate, never heard of Luddenham; considering I rarely leave the Northern Beaches its not a massive surprise...

4th tier I wouldn't imagine is that strong; are these paid players? I know you said amateur league, but there were/are always ways to get round that...

We have a coach up game on Thursday night against Hawksbury @ Richmond. Reserve Grade is 6:30 and First's are 8:30.

It's going to suck trying to get to Richmond by 6:00 on Thursday!!!

Div 2 is the 4th tier of football in NSW and 5th if you count the A-League, it's amateur league.

Luddenham is a suburb of Sydney, in the state of New South Wales, Australia. Luddenham is located 42 kilometres west of the Sydney central business district, in the local government areas of the City of Penrith and City of Liverpool. It is part of the Greater Western Sydney region.



Does that answer your question?:-k

Whats this quality like and what the hell is a Luddenham?

I played a bit, but have had a few years away from the state leagues... Do clubs still offer trials?

Minotaurs are playing Prospect tomorrow night in a catch up. Might have to venture down there. A draw would be nice

Non of this was mentioned in the match report Mr Montgomery ;)

Haha yeah we play them in 3 weeks can't wait. Mate I've never seen a game like the game vs bulls yesterday. Luddenham 2 0 down at half time scored 4 goals in 13 mins to win 4 2. There were horrible tackles,a sideline brawl, yellow cards getting shown all over the shop, a dodgy ref and a 4 goal second half comeback was unbelievable

You forgot to mention that Minotaurs have copped 10 goals in 2 games ;)

Shock result. The Skinny one is the coach, the fat one is the assistant coach. Both clowns and won't be around next season, which is good for the club and the players as many were ready to walk away. I'm sure you understand the difficulty the Club went through this season being the first season back in the State League. We didn't start recruiting players till January!

Bathurst having a draw with Roosters is a shock result. Good on em. I still maintain that Roosters is a rubbish over rated team. But of course, I'd rather the Turks win then Minotaurs to go into Division 1 !!!

Good luck today, our game has been washed out. Shitty Canterbury Council!!!

The skinny one he was carrying on the whole game I see bathurst and roosters drew too

Did you get into an argument with the fat bloke or the skinny one?

Hahaha love that pic yeah i hope the belmore coach gets sacked too hes a loud mouth i had a argument with him at our ground at half time i told him to shut his mouth.WATP when did you play for Springwood? i played there when they were div 4 96- 98 ish

Hahaha circulating around Sydney Greeks
