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

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

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...

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+

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...

go on luddenham

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

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...

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

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.

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

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

Told you hey they aren't a bad side not skillful by any means but just a team of runners

You were 100% spot on, they're not a bad team and should be higher up the ladder.

It was 3 degrees playing out there...

Haha yeah its freezing there its in like a little pocket and all just flat land around it so the frost just drops on you. We played there last year it was freezing, had to have a couple of shots of sljivovica (Rakia) before the game to warm us up haha. Spare a thought for us we have to play Bathurst at their ground middle of August in a Saturday night match!! hey ive also heard that Roosters have lost a few players?

We have Bathurst in the middle of July, so we're in the same shit as you in regards to that.

As to with Roosters, no idea how they're going player wise. I don't really rate them anyway, and think they have been a bit lucky to date.

If Luddenham were to get promoted to Div 1, would you get Youth Leagues?

Yeah that's one of the major things I've put to the club is to get youth league.its imperative moving forward that you have a solid production of younger players coming through esp for under 20s cos there's only so many young kids looking for clubs and the ones who are generally have been discarded by their current clubs so I'm looking to build a good culture there. I think with the demise of Zagreb and the upturn with us I'm confident that next year well attract a lot more players. Good luck this weekend champion and go the soccerroos

Is it true loyalist that a certain pidgion has been asked to play first grade this weekend? shorly the team isnt in strife that much,:lol:

Us reserves won 5-0 against Hakoah, with yours truly once again scoring.

Firsts had a 3-3 draw, and scored in the last minute, against the run of play. Hakoah shouldve have hammered the Firsts, and a player chucked a dummy spit @ half time and is asking for a clearance, due to the first grade coach being a clueless fuck.

We won 1 0 against springwood shit it was cold hey. They play horrible stuff just big boot up the park and chase it like a under 12 div 6 side. In saying that but they do it pretty well and created a lot of chances if it wasn't for our keeper would have been a different result but finally we've hit first place and looking forward to playing roosters this weekend

The advantage Springwood have over many other Clubs (particularly the wog ones) is that they are very fit.

Luddenham is defiantly the place to be on sunday,because its a top of the table clash the club is doing $2 beers till first goal is scored! Expecting a decent crowd too

highly doubt you will get the few hundred we got at Minotaurs v Belmore :P

Biggest game in the history of Division 2 today Luddenham V Roosters. Going to be massive hope we can make it 10 games without a loss today and go 5 points clear

Us reserves won 3-0, putting us 3 games undefeated :)
Firsts won 1-0. We played Springwood.

Minotaurs lost 6-2 to the Bulls at home, HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! thats about 20 goals they have conceeded in 4 games!

how did you guys go?

Mate we dominated roosters had a goal disallowed in the 5th minute had a header crossed the line and the ref said play on our keeper didn't have 1 save to make! They had a free kick in the 80th minute it hit our wall and trickled in just absolutely wrong

There goes the 10 game undefeated winning streak. Good news is, that even though you have played one extra game, you are still in a very strong position for promotion.

btw, what was the crowd?

Yeah mate few good results during the week too, our crowd was about 100-150 so fell pretty short of you guys:-) cant wait for Sunday against your mates Minotaurs haha

Excellent. Our first grade had 2 draws 2 weeks in a row to the bottom 2 Clubs, Hakoah and Hawksbury, If they had beaten them they would be in 3rd spot and still in contention for promotion. Oh well....

Good luck with Minotaurs, I'll be getting my regularly updates throughout that match :D

Us Reserves played Bathurst, up at Bathurst. Had 9 players for the first half, and 11 in the second half, and no sub's. They had the full 11 and made 4 substitutions. We ended up winning 1-0, making the 4 hour trip up worth it :D

First's lost 2-1.

My good mate ref'd the Luddenham First Grade game.

Good result mate always hard to win up there refs are dodgy as there. You mate refed well today couldn't fault him. We had a player sent off in the 40th minute but he deserved it so can't complain. What happened with your first grade? 2-1? We won 3_1 today and back ontop of the table. I recon that we are the only team in history to be leading a comp with a -1 goal diff haha comp is so tight but anyone could win on their day
