Never Was Been

Was initially from the Glove mans post having a shot at UNSW after what seemed a close game in 1's? Unsure if there was some tension on the sidelines which warranted the comment.
Although given the amount of responses, others seem to think the same.
Lol so you just judged the whole club based on one goon’s excitable comments

If it’s based on that comment then in my opinion you’re off the mark. I’m not sure if you have watched the 1st grade game but UNSW had an opportunity to win the game in the 79th minute with a shot from the sideline. It hit the post and Lindfield managed to kick into touch and celebrated a come from behind win.

Any club would be rightfully stoked to secure a win like that were they weren’t playing anywhere near their best

Why is it always the successful clubs that people think are bad winners. Any club in the competition would kill to be on a roll like Lindfield is. They’ve lost 4 games across the entire club so far this year and until 1st Grade on the weekend Uni barely got a point on them, same the week before vs Epping.

Surely has to be concerning for Uni blowing another close game after dropping the opportunity to steal the Barraclough last year from Newport when the winger dropped the ball with the line wide open. Would hate to have that hanging over you going into finals.

Motivation is what you make it.

Div 3 Round 9 Review

The winners

Knox
- Comprehensive sweep against Iggies highlighting the improvement the club has achieved over the course of this year. Vital games against Harlequins and Old Barker over the next two weeks. Winning those should seal finals footy.

Sydney Harbour - Easy win for Harbour against Manly Savers. The Beecroft loss opens the door for them to return to the top of the table if they can knock them off in a couple of rounds

Sydney Harlequins - Upset of the year! Late intercept wins the game against the competition favourites. If they can keep the momentum of that win for the back end of the season, they'll have a good shot at finals.

The losers

Old Ignatians
- Poor loss at home that all but ends their season this year. Regressing hard after the break.

Manly Savers - Will eye Iggies at home next week as their last realistic shot at grabbing a win this year. Good luck to them.

Beecroft - Shock loss for the crofties, losing their heads in the final moments. Team sheet shows a pretty undermanned lineup in this game, maybe due to the travel? Nevertheless, they have the bye to reset before a main event clash against Sydney Harbour. Plenty of positives out of this week to dwell on. 2nds with a good win to extend 1st place and colts knocking off an undefeated Easts outfit as well.

Div 4 Predictions:

Chatswood v Saints - not sure what the Staggies will bring after having to foreit 2s last week. Reckon the Saints can nab this one.

Merrylands v Rockdale - Wolves to win at home, but this will be keenly watched by a few teams to see what the new guys bring to Holroyd.

Irish v Raptors - long drive to play on plastic. Irish comfortably.

Mac Uni v Wakehurst- the Beacons will hold the ball better this week and win a close one.

Redfield v Renegades - has been a bit up and down for ROBRs. Got outmuscled against Merrylands and hopefully the same this week ;) they will be better at home so this could go either way.

I'll have a crack at Div 5:

Blacktown v Dukes - at home the Warriors will be different to the 13 they had turn up at Wills last week. Dukes also struggling.

Sea Lice v Canterbury - this will be a close one but I think the Berries might just out-enthuse their opponents.

Kings v Oatley - 2nd vs 6th. Should be a good game but Oatley are on a mission to hunt down Burraneer.

Convicts v Balmain - looking for the muzzled wolves to push into a top 6 spot here with a solid win.

Burraneer v Maccabi - they're undefeated for a reason. Maccabi have some points in them but might not be enough.
 

The Waverley Walrus

Anyone seen the Waverley Walrus or has he also migrated overseas to escape the cold?
