ReplyDeleteAnonymous 7.32pm, sorry about that. A slip of the finger. Correct score is up now (7-0).
ReplyDeletewho played for clarence? they have lost everyone so be interesting to see who is playing seniors?
ReplyDeleteKingborough v Beachside 3-3
ReplyDeleteSo what negative comments are we going to see about the eagles performance against south? Still missing minimum three first team players and again playing away from home.
ReplyDeleteEagles had a decent crack but are probably flattered by the 4-3 score line as the fill-in keeper made a hash of a couple of routine takes but that's football.
ReplyDeleteSouth not in their best form at the moment but youngsters doing a great job for them - Bladel, Williams and Pennicott stood up well today.
Congratulations to Hobart Zebras for putting together a great tournament in the Lightning Premiership. What a wonderful way to bring the women's soccer community together for a great cause. Apparently everything from food to raffle prizes and even the band were donated, so thanks for all those involved for making it a success.
ReplyDeleteClarence senior squad players lost from last year.

there was another game on last sunday.
ReplyDeletezebras vs nelson and Im pretty sure that it ended up being 10 - 0 to the zebras.
yes they are a div 1 team but didnt they draw 3 - 3 with knights earlier on in the week?
also I heard that the eagles south game went of for a while in the second half. until there was a result... for south.
Anonymous 10.57am, why don't clubs tell me of practice games and results? I try and attend ones I am told about, but it would be nice for clubs to let me know the results from ones I've missed. Surely there should be a media liaison officer at every club. But, then again, I've been saying that for more than a quarter of a century. One would think that email makes it so easy these days.
ReplyDeleteSo what does that say for Taroona.
ReplyDeleteIt may well be Metro for promotion in 2012
i heard at the south vs eagles game that the second half got timed at around 53 minutes. only south would do something like that. south referee in gary upton was goind to let the half go on until south scored. dont suppose you checked the time walter?
ReplyDeleteHave you ever thought that not all clubs feel the need for their pre season friendlies to be all over your blog so that other people can bag them out for whatever reason they feel like. Sometimes a friendly is just that, a bit of a kick between two clubs
ReplyDeleteYep, sorry Walter, I did mention we had the game coming up in my comments after our match v Knights. I made it 11-0 to Zebra's actually, but once it hits double figures it's better to stop counting! These are only practice matches after all!! We had 5 players unavailable from the squad that played Knights on Thursday evening in addition to a couple of our starting 11 who have been away for a few weeks which did leave us with a thin squad. But having made an excuse (woops), no more excuses, zebra's were way too good and look extremely menacing for the season.
ReplyDeleteThanks To Sandi, & Romeo at Zebra's for organising the game down at Sandown Park.
Thanks to Ivan as well for reffing, and he even left his cards in his pocket!
Anonymous 3.48pm, yes, I have thought of that. But, then those clubs shouldn't come crawling when they want some publicity during the season either.
ReplyDeletetoo true walter;)
ReplyDeletei heard at the south vs eagles game that the second half got timed at around 53 minutes
ReplyDeleteIf it in fact went that long, that might be down to the 'handbags at 2 paces' that broke out and some injuries that stopped the game. Stopt whinging - there werent 3 pts at stake.
Anon 3:48
ReplyDeleteWalter is the most committed personality in local soccer/football and his coverage of games is second to none and his absence would forever be a huge loss to the game statewide but particuarly in the south. For clubs to not want their games covered, practise or otherwise, is ridiculous as it boosts the games audience and raises publicity.
I support everything you do walter, even when Im not always portrayed in the best way haha. I hope you ignore morons who make comments like that and continue your amazing work!
