Lousy prize money considering the wages and 'frills' in the office, not to mention gate takings and kiosks.

Anonymous 10.54pm, Tilford Zebras have cancelled their trip to Queensland. No grounds are available because of the floods and so the trip is off.

Juice said...

Walter, you mention if the games are drawn there will be extra time,then possibly penalties, is this for the group games also or just the finals?

I can't believe people are complaining about the level of prize money in a predominately amateur league, we should be happy that there is any at all. Maybe someone should be talking to Dick Smith and David Walsh, they may have a soft spot for football, and put up a purse of several million for the summer cup. GET REAL!

Why are the NTC/TIS mens team not in the summer cup? They want to play in the big boys comp so why aren't they? Not in the Hudson cup either. Scared of an open draw perhaps? Might have drawn a premier league team!!!!

last two comments are stupid along with anyone tipping eagles to win anything except the longest punts

Is George K the worst coach in the league? That will answer your question on how Eagles will go

They are already involved in a trans tasman competition in Newcastle, with teams from New Zealand and other NTC programs.

If Olympia are to win a game this year....they'll have to forget about the no train no game. Their best players are the ones least there.

Apparently Olympia chose the ground location so as to kick balls on the highway...good way to waste time.
