Lions looking a bit better maybe we don’t write them off just yet
Congratulations must go to Launceston City who played 88 minutes with only 10 players and only tired and conceded the winning goal in the last few minutes. You had the better of the game up until that point and you can hold your heads high boys ,well done !
Loss is a loss. That’s the kind of attitude that saw city as a basket case for years
Umm Ulverstone… say no more
Are Football Tasmania having an Easter Break their coverage is non- existent.
Well done to Ulverstone, travelled 4 hours each way to only lose by 9 goals. Hopefully South chucked them a few free slabs for the trip home
Agree a call of thank you to Walt and Rhodesy is in order when the CEO ever gets back to Tassie .
City fantastic today 10 men for 90 mins they played beautifully I would be a proud supporter.
Ulverstone wouldn’t finish top 4 of southern champ. Olympia, New Town, Taroona and South Hobart reserves would turn them over with relative ease.
Would chuck them straight back into the Northern champ. Never good enough and a waste of everyone’s time and energy!
I think it just says a lot about the difference in the coaches and players abilities when you can't come up with a plan to comfortably beat a 10 man side for the whole game and only score a goal in the last 3 minutes lol
Loose by 10 goals actually
Me too. A narrow loss to a formidable zebras team. Congrats city
Zebras 2 city 1
I’ve never seen a game where a team lose a player in 39 seconds to be exact and then outplays the opposing side. Credit to zebras advancing but I’d say that they should feel very fortunate advancing poor showing with an extra player for 90 mins. It’s a real shame there’s no footage to tell the story.
City could have played with 8 men and the result wouldn't have been much different Zebras are too old at the back ,too short at the front and too stubborn on the sidelines to make the right choices
Good to watch a couple of old rivals play in front of a good crowd at Olympia last night.
How does an NPL club concede 10 goals in a game not once, but twice and are how deep into the season. Great promotion
too old at the back? all under 25 but douce who brings experience. silly comment.
Poor discipline is a reflection of leadership
A perfect example of why this NPL setup should be an enforced South/North split.
South:
South Hobart
Kingborough Lions
Clarence Zebras
Glenorchy Knights
South East
New Town Eagles
Olympia Warriors
Taroona
North:
Devonport Strikers

With a State Final series…that would give you a good number of games for season
I don't understand how Olympia still makes these types of conversations.
Little to no structure at the club, I was there on Saturday and it felt as if the game was a hindrance to the club.
Tell me you are not part of the club without telling me YOU ARE NOT PART OF THE CLUB…
Right… because turning up for one game suddenly gives you a full understanding of how the whole club operates. Bit of a stretch.
It’s easy to call it “no structure” when you’ve got no idea what’s actually happening behind the scenes week to week. There’s a lot more going on than what you “felt” on the day.
And let’s not ignore the fact there was a big turnout there — clubs that are supposedly that disorganised don’t exactly draw that kind of crowd.
Everyone can have an opinion, but it carries a bit more weight when it’s based on more than a one-day observation.
Who are you mate sitting there saying Olympia has nothing, the club has been building itself up with no backing from football tas no backing from the government. A hinderance to the club there was 600+ people to watch a champ team take on an Npl team who only won off of two controversial penalties and Olympia dominated possession in the second half. Either shows the club has something going for them or the quality of Npl has just turned really far in the wrong direction
The NPL is dead. No media coverage outside of some great local people who do more than anyone on FFT. No money in it. Puts clubs in debt. More interstate and imports as the standard of local players isn’t ideal plus who want to travel the state on the weekends. She dead kids
Sorry my mistake I forgot its never Olympiad fault and its not fair that the government and ft are bailing them out. I saw a team in red comfortably win also sorry to disappoint you.
7:19 am are you really questioning City’s discipline over what we all witnessed at knights when old mate was in charge and how he talks and carries on with players, let’s see where he is next season …
Split the NPL together North and South then run a finals series to determine state NPL winner.
South 1st away to North 4th
South 2nd away to North 3rd
North 1st away to South 4th
North 2nd away to South 3rd
And so on
Anon – 2:33pm: What exactly are you expecting Football Tasmania or the Government to provide to Olympia? Who funded the fence around the ground and the new changerooms, weren’t those grant-funded? It was only 18 months ago that the club was fully committed to merging with the Zebras. It seems your memory is quite short and misguided on building itself up.
No one ever said it was or wasn’t Olympias fault. You ‘felt’ the need to reply to a post that mentioned Olympia in a southern league… and tried to turn it into a negative towards the club you probably have only ever seen from the outside.
Also congratulations to the Knights on their result and progression into the next stage..
You must also have ‘felt’ you played a big part in the result.
Anon 2:33 interesting fact out of that game on Saturday night the knights have 4 players in their NPL squad that used to be part of the old Olympia academy and all 4 played on the one team as kids at Olympia until the club imploded from within. Olympia academy was at one time on par with Souths.
If it wasn’t for a few poor decisions where they lost their licence those players and more would still be there
He would be jumping for joy if Zebras even got a Participation Certificate at seasons end
Anon 11:45am
The only hindrance was your attendance.
Anon 9:25pm
How do you think Metro, Glenorchy, Kingborough and South East all funded their ground upgrades?
Chook raffle?
Clueless comment from a person who attends one game every decade.
And if they were so committed to the merger, why didn't it go ahead.
Again, some know it all who knows nothing apart from just typing behind a keyboard because they have no idea as per my comment above.
