Great photo Heineken, see what I meant about the jerseys.

Mitchell Long BWE player in the photo, worth the entrance fee on his own, what a performance, outrun the defence every time, most of the fouls were committed against him and in the first half should have had a penalty awarded for a foul inside the box only for the ref to see it outside the box, from which free kick he smashed the crossbar.

Ralerasic – I do not believe that most people have given up on NSW Premier League, BWE have increased their attendances (OK they also play very good football, at BWE more people are coming to see the youth also), goals scored per game in the league are up, we just need better promotion from FNSW, this is where our game future is. For e.g. better ground announcements at the games, tonight is CUP game night, many games played across town and not many people know about it.

Great photo. :lol:

Most people have given up on the NSWPL, save for the hardcore fans.

Further most clubs "lie" when it comes to ground attendances and you would be lucky if even one club pulls over 500 to a match.

Olympic v BWE 1:1

This game due to the pitch condition should have not gone ahead and I do not think that Belmore surface will recover till the end of the season after what happened here on the weekend.
Referee made another blunder by allowing BWE to play in their away white jersey as Olympic is half white/blue.

Game was awful due to the playing surface. BWE had plenty of chances to win the game, but congratulation to SO on snatching the point.

Where have all the SO fans gone? Crowd was around 200 and most of them were BWE supporters.

Big game on the weekend against Blacktown Demons, I hope the midweek Cup game gets cancelled as having Sunday, Wednesday and Saturday game is just too much for players in the State League

Certainly is interesting. Mid table has become so congested at the halfway mark.

3.02 either means teams are playing a more attacking style of football or the defence isn't as good as previous seasons. Depends how you look at it.

It is also interesting to see the spread of players scoring opposed to standout players scoring with respect to the teams place on the table. We can see target men and also balanced attacking styles.

Younis is on fire but helped greatly by 4 penalties added to his tally. Kwabena Appiah is impressive considering he didn't start playing until round 3 or 4 and at the time was still recovering from an injury and no penalties taken.

2nd half of the season looming and the business end so to speak will be most interesting.

Sweet

The league is 10 rounds in for 178 goals from 82 goal scorers
A goal average of 3.02 so far. Higher then last season (2.80) and the a-league (2.66).
It's an interesting season

well that opens up a whole new debate doesnt it.....given we are heading toward the new FFA & FNSW system next year with points and quoata's for developement, and the talk about associations owning PL teams??????? LOL....... the full circle has spun.....LOL

Batfink,

If what realrasic is saying is correct it appears a silly move by Parra FC. You blokes should be either recruiting high calibre experienced players or a coach that has a habit of moving teams up the table.

All this so called development will amount to nothing if Parra FC finish bottom and become relegated back to super league. Currently Parra FC are on the bottom of the club championship table by 22 points and their first grade side will need to pull some rabbits out of their hats. Their 20's will not save them this year.

Coaches do have a habit of using the word "development" when they do not have the skills to do the business.

oh well all we can do is have a go......and hope for the best

That list of top goalscorers is totally inaccurate..Ultimates is much better..



Marconi 20's were top of the table early and are now 8th...So I think you have some merit there ralerasic..

well i'm pretty sure there is a change coming....like i said cant say to much.....

Anybody looking for a top scorers list this site is very good

Batfink,

According to his post match report it will be players getting the golden handshake...


With no further addition to the score, at the final whistle a disgruntled Eagles coach Lee Sterrey commented:

“We went into the game knowing we had to lift our intensity, against Bonnyrigg we slipped off the pace with intensity and passion but we had some enormous performances here in the Cup and against Marconi and we were really on the upward scale and going really well. “We dropped 20 or 30-percent against Bonnyrigg and knew we had to lift and to take a goal like we did in the first 2’ minutes when there is two against one at the corner flag and Edwards manages to get a cross in and the blokes in the box still don’t mark their players and allow them an easy tap in is suicidal.
”The second goal was just as bad when from a corner the player is allowed to peel off to the far post because we are not showing enough aggression in getting to the ball inside the box. “And two goals let in from crossing situations where the defenders are not picking up their players at any level is asking for trouble.”
Left to chase the game it looked different after the equaliser:
“When we got back to one-all I thought we were a chance, we’re back in the game. “I thought we competed reasonably well although at about 75% of what we can be in passion and desire but the schoolboy errors on the goals are just shocking and it cost us tonight.”

Although a young squad has been assembled at the Eagles, does it mean changes in the future: “The front third in execution is lacking, the final ball option is the wrong one on many occasions and you know how young and naive your team is in this league overall but it’s that time year with the window of registration open and if I have to give a few handshakes then so be it. “I don’t want to as I really believe in what we’ve assembled here at the club, some good young kids and experienced players but everything comes into question. “I’ve shown my support for them right through, given them the opportunity but they have to take that and rise to the challenge and senior standards set so we may have to look at bringing new faces into the club.”

i believe coach change as well

marconi played some wonderful football first half against us and thoroughly deserved their 2-0 lead at the break. second half we improved dramatically and had a couple of chances to make it interesting. mcallister with a header and when young alex was through. wasnt to be. disappointing. now we gotta bounce back against parra this week. big game. im sure sterrey will be pumped for the game against us.

still scratching my head as to why the 20's was cancelled was marconi. the field was fine!

crowd was about 150 people of which there were 120 rockdale supporters.

Ultimate,

Your spreadsheet appears to be rather accurate. Good stuff.

Interesting statistics.



Batfink has told us some big changes are coming for Parra FC. So depending on those changes It's a tad early for myself to make the same call but at this point I would concur. It's not looking good thus far with Parra FC firmly on the bottom of the firsts table and U/20's table.

We've seen what a difference a new coach can make AKA Rockdale so let's see what eventuates at Parra FC. Parra are a young side and still developing with quite a few from their u/20's from last year in the side mixed with a few experienced guys. I think too many have been promoted up from u/20's in a move which hasn't paid off and may well have cost them a spot in NSWPL next season.

Sterrey has indicated player changes. So the coach isn't on the radar for a change.

Time will tell...

Parra eagles fail ><

After round 10

If all the reviews are right, I can adapt an old spreadsheet in 30 mins

Adam Casey is back! Playing for APIA and scored I believe in his debut.

Can anybody write up a top 5 goalscorers list or something? NSW PL Website is next to useless, as per normal.

another one of your quality posts...keep up the good work......

stanton has to go

Fulltime scores.

Blacktown City 1 - 0 Sutherland
Sydney Olympic 1 - 1 Bonnyrigg

Werent you asking Kolner to reveal how much a player was going to be paid? :-k

no can do mate.....not my right to spill the beans....but yes some big changes coming,

worst ref of the year by a country mile last night, had a clear penalty denied at 2-1 and when that decision went against them they dropped, fair result was a draw, also the news that things are changing and some will face the chop couldn't of helped......

anyway like they say in football....theres always next week...!!!!

Well it's early but I'm calling it, Melita will finish last again but this time their indifferent U/20's wont save them.

Don't know what happened. Don't know if I've ever been more thankful of having to work :lol:
