2021 NPL NSW season set to be cancelled as NPL Victoria match commentators Neal Symons and Michael Thompson mentioned it on Sunday morning during Kickoff Football show on Southern FM at about 13.18 into the show as that puts the 2021 FFA Cup and 2021 NPL national finals in serious question marks now as well.

I have received a big update from Russ Gibbs - NPL ACT commentator reckons it will struggle to even see FFA Cup at all this year due to the lockdown in Sydney and border closures applied right across the country.

As also 13 clubs are affected in the firing line (5 A League, 5 Football NSW, 2 Northern NSW, and 1 ACT).

NSW teams are also banned from travelling to ACT so APIA Leichhardt Tigers wouldn’t be able got come and play Cooma Tigers in Canberra.

Also with likelihood that both NSW and maybe Victoria are facing unlikely to finish their NPL seasons he can’t see FFA Cup national rounds or NPL National Finals series taking place.

Yep. 

developing news: I've just received word from NPL NSW an announcement will be made regarding the NPL season by weeks end watch this space (re: cancellation of the 2021 season).

That surely ends the FFA Cup 2021 also. 

Host the whole tournament in Perth ffs

If the WA government  allowes us to travel over there  and we don't have to quarantine for 2 weeks coming back to Melbourne Im game for the trip .... why not? Not fair for the lads in NPL teams that are trying to hold down full time work at the same time otherwise..... Oh and the scumbags at FA have to give us a share of the gate takings too ....

Time to just accept the fact this tournament is shelved until next year. 

hearing community sport winter season in Melbourne on the brink of being cancelled now according to Peter Gleeson on Sky News said it on The Front Page.

rumour mill is in overdrive that another 7 day extension lockdown until Thursday August 26th for Metro Melbourne Area & its doing the rounds on the socials also Neil Mitchell from 3AW said it as well and too many mystery cases unknown also over 400 exposure sites across Melbourne.

Terrible for Victorian football. 

As of this weekend I think its 7 rounds missed for some clubs....... I think its cooked for another year ......
 thanks goes out to the horse punchers and anti-vaxers out there......

This. Absolute hate those rioters, mucking up our lives, childrens sport, and the national economy.

Really?
i’d blame the government. 

Meanwhile, in the real world tens of thousands of cases a day (despite high rates of vaccination), tens of deaths a day, no lockdowns, life back to normal, and football with crowds is all systems go. 

Yes. 

I have a very bad feeling that NPL Northern NSW could well be the next NPL competition to cancel its season following this week's announcement of NPL NSW pulling the pin following its board meeting on Wednesday as the whole of NSW is in lockdown from 5pm today.

state of play:
NPL ACT - suspended til Thursday September 2nd 11.59pm
NPL NSW - season cancelled
NPL Northern NSW - suspended til Saturday August 21st 11.59pm
NPL Queensland - suspended til Sunday August 22nd (to resume Friday August 27th)
NPL South Australia - in progress
NPL Tasmania - in progress
NPL Victoria - suspended til Thursday September 2nd 11.59pm
NPL Western Australia - in progress

Looking like we will see a Summer NPL rather than a Winter A-league...

2021 FFA Cup round of 32 dates,

Tuesday September 14th 7.30pm AEST: Peninsula Power v Brisbane Roar at Moreton Daily Stadium
Wednesday September 15th 7.30pm AEST: Edge Hill United v Gold Coast Knights at Barlow Park

this is really good news. 

I reckon FFA Cup should not be happening this year and not go ahead imo despite them announcing schedule last week this is because 21 clubs (9 A League clubs & 12 NPL clubs) are in lockdown and border closures in New South Wales, Victoria, ACT, and New Zealand.

ACT - lockdown extended til Friday September 17th 11.59pm
New South Wales - (Sydney) lockdown extended til Thursday September 30th 11.59pm, (regional NSW), lockdown extended til Friday September 10th 11.59pm
Victoria - lockdown extended til Thursday September 23rd 11.59pm (regional maybe let out next week)

Victoria aint going to be opening for months. States will keep their borders closed to Vic and NSW till end of the year at least.
A League must be very worried now

I reckon FFA Cup is on the brink of being cancelled for the 2nd year in a row but Football Australia aren't keen to publicly cancel the tournament until they absolutely have to, so I doubt we'll get an announcement for another month or so.

Given currently 12 NPL clubs (1 ACT, 2 Newcastle, 4 Victoria, and 5 Sydney) are either in lockdown or season has been officially cancelled plus interstate travel border restrictions.

Also their are multiple state federations have officially cancelled the season (New South Wales and Victoria) or suspended the season (NPL Northern NSW and NPL ACT) i simply cannot see it happening you have 21 clubs (9 A League clubs and 12 NPL clubs) are banned from even leaving the state or New Zealand.

Hence
