high quality match at normo oval.. pity no goals but chances were there. not very impressed with the small normo player on their right side - very uncomposed. boz was well contained but had his 2 moments.

What was he thinking.
wrote on 04-Jun-06 21:03

My guess is that their goals came from boz and afl boy. So that explains why they looked boring yesterday. Wph's team just sat back to defend. But couldn't do that to save their lives. Very ordinary team. Not to mention the field that looked the same as wph played. shite.

WPH boring? that's weird considering they usually score more goals in a season then any other team. where does that come from?

Juice
wrote on 04-Jun-06 21:06

Here we go again... "What was he thinking", sure a lot of goals came from Boz, but would it interest you to know that of Boz's time in PL at WPH, Kev Iredale won golden boot more times. Oh and Boz and AFL boy (Kieran) are strikers - it's a funny thing that, most of our goals coming from strikers... Genius! Yep, we were ordinary and from a spectators view point, probably boring on Saturday, and on Saturday two weeks earlier. Last week against, granted an average performance from NER, we were far more agressive. Ditto against PEN and NOR. Perhaps you should attend ALL our matches before passing judgement. "What was he thinking", it's a given your support is not affiliated with WPH so I'm assuming STA. Thanks for constructive feedback though...

There are 2 backs in North Epping reserves that shouldn't be playing for a few weeks. I won't comment what kind of people they are but the fatter of the two is a thug and his type don't belong in football. He belongs in a rugby code. He is about 35 I'd say. Everyone knows him. He is a dirty player. All refs call things as they see them. The fact that players can throw so many punches and not be identified is beyond me. Cost Thornleigh the game. Even down to 10 men they were 1-0 up at the half. Was too much though to cope with for the 2nd half. That kind of refereeing is disgraceful. I know they only do their best but it was shocking.

DAMIEN
wrote on 05-Jun-06 13:01

I do wonder what the refs watch during a game sometimes. The incident in the reserves game (thl v ner) is proof that our refs just arent up for it. They didnt see the first tackle by Scott (thl). They didnt see Jamie (ner) run 30metre to hit scott from behind with his elbow. They didnt see any numbers of players who were invovlved in the 'fight' (only scott's). Two red cards should of been shown. Not for the tackle, but for throwing punches.

Yeah his name is Jamie. I'm not into responding to taunts or anything on this site. It's pointless. I'm not even into revenge even though the Thornleigh side wanted him to be hurt to say the least. I am just shocked that so many punches can be thrown and not dealt with. People get reds for bad tackles. Surely numerous punches to the head is worse. Not seeing them is pathetic when it's your job to plus you have 2 assistants. Jamie you don't belong on a field. I won't call you anything as it's not my place as tempting as it is. The worse side of me would do alot worse but I know better. I'm not into man to man sledging etc either. All I know is that you shouldn't be playing. Actually HFC should suit you.

Darren
wrote on 05-Jun-06 17:03

Damien, I agree the refereeing was ordinary but to not have seen the 1st foul was understandable as it was so long after the ball, and yes one of our blokes did come in and throw a punch. It was not a fullback and it was not Jamie. Again we go to the refs and as they couldn't identify the number of our player they couldn't send him. This is not the first time refs have been unable to punish players for not getting their no. nor will it be the last. Without the disgusting late bodycheck/jump at/cheapshot we wouldn't be having this conversation. Enough said I think.

Fair comment Da Ref. It seems to be a thankless poor, paying 'hobby' at our level. Hence why not too many want to do it. Unfortunately with the small amount that go down the black and white path, mathematically speaking, the smaller pool of quality come of it. Like I said Da Ref, fair comment, but really over the years playing this level and higher, why is it these incidences are so poorly managed time and time again in our comp?

You cannot blame the refs (apart from the ones that lose you games... Joking) and you certaintly can't say that the THL fuckwit that took out the NER player about 5.6 seconds late, did not start the whole shamambles on saturday at THL. And without F###### stupid piece of human ridicule, the whole incident would not have occured. No blows would have been traded.

So what if our (thunders) players challenge was rough, it wasnt as late as you all are making it out to be. And if you numb nuts let the ref sort it out without taking matters into you own hands (elbowing players in the back of the head) then we wouldnt be in this debate. bottom line is the ref was probably right to send off thorns player (even though he was only defending himself), but how can he send him off and let NER off without anything??? everyone at the ground (except the ref & linesman it seems) knew which NER player ran 20 metres to elbow thorns player in the back of the head, so why was nothing done about it. what ever happened to asking the player involved...

Boris
wrote on 06-Jun-06 09:08

Didnt the THL player win the header?? Yes he did. Did he mean to get him with an elbow, ofcourse not. Was the referee going to award a penalty to NER for the challenge?? NO. But you NER heros decided to take the matter into your own hands and run and throw elbows and fists. Your an older more mature team I would of thought you wouldnt react with violence. I suppose Isaac above is showing us all that aggression. Its not really needed is it?

don't worry - help on the way from FIFA ===== MUNICH, June 5 (Reuters) - Sepp Blatter has told World Cup referees to protect the players and clamp down hard on elbowing. The president of soccer's ruling body FIFA said on Monday that this was the only instruction he gave the match officials when he visited them in Frankfurt last Tuesday. Speaking at a news conference following a two-day meeting of FIFA's executive committee, Blatter referred to elbowing as a 'devil'. He said: 'I gave them only one instruction, to protect the good games and to protect the good players and to pay special attention to the devil that has come into our game, elbowing.

Damo, the thornleigh reserve grade player that tackled so late and nasty that NER were forced to extract revenge, was he the same guy that came on late in 1st grade against YMCA and did the exact same thing and broke a Y players arm ?? Seems the Blunder are making late dangerous tackling part of their game. So if the refs are NOT going to curtail this dispicable behaviour then the opposition usually takes matters into their own hands. Personally I would prefer to see a 'square up' tackle but that would only end up in the same situation that you had last saturday. Seems NER thought to skip a step in the process. If the tackle against NER was as bad as against the YMCA, then I don't blame teh Rangers.

The tackle if handled properly would have been met wiht a yellow card only. The fact that heroes from north epping decided to run 30 metres and throw fly kicks and forearms is a disgrace. reminds me of how lebs fight....5 or 6 on 1. I am the reserve grade player that came on against YMCA and went into a challenge that the YMCA player came out of with a broken wrist or arm. My challenge was strong and its unfortunate he came out of it and landed the wrong way. I only ever went in for the ball.

Casual Observer
wrote on 07-Jun-06 12:08

How can you say you went for the ball when it had been gone for so long. When the tackles are that late someone is gonna get hurt. Your was disgracefull. If you are happy with your tackling that breaks arms then you are worse than the NER players, who it seems took matters into their own hands. Brawling is definately not desirable but when tackles become that late & dangerous that if the players don't have enough confidence in the ref to control the cheap shot merchants like yourself, then they take matters into their own hands. Its simple. Don't tackle so appallingly that you break arms & legs, then there won't be any punch ups.

The ball was not gone as when the challenge occurred the ball sprayed away when we both got a touch on it at the same time.

mystical your attempt at trying to prove your innocence is shaky i dont see how u think hitting a guy who is off balance clearing the ball with a hip and shoulder (AFL style) a few seconds late is going for the ball, an injury like the one the y player suffered doesnt result from a 50/50 tackle,not many 50/50 tackles send players tumbling to the ground in this case u hit the player with a shoulder who had no idea what you were planning to do as he was to busy clearing the ball ,if it was a 50/50 the y player wouldnt of been smashed like he was as he would of been prepared and was a much bigger build than that of your self.your eagerness to impress the coach as a substitute and lack of judgement cost a player his season

Umm lets think about that. you wouldnt be would you! It would be just another hard 50/50 tackle that you see in the game. Seriosuly if the tackle was that bad and he hip and shouldered him and smashed his wrist up on purpose, he would of been sent off wouldnt he??

Player
wrote on 08-Jun-06 17:08

All those fouls, bad tackles, mistimed headers, punches etc usually happen on the ball or just after it. So whether it is a hot league or not, the ref sees the incident. The problem lies in that refs do not see the foul even though are watching it. Normally both teams, and probably most of the subs and supporters see the above, but when the ref misses these blatantly is when trouble brews. Refereeing is not hard. Its only man management. The best refs are the ones that admit that they have missed the foul when they occur.

You cant explan these situtions cause everyone sees and thinks different when you read a game.Yes there are bad calls,missed things but unless you go to the N.R.L and have a 3rd ref it will never improve.If you watch a local rugby league team play in the Parramatta,Hornsby,Bankstown Comp(all age)they actually video the game and if you believe the incident is worth a look at a commitee panel decide if a suspension is nedded.Think about it 5 games/weekend dont think it would be that expensive just need to look into it.Maybe its a little over the top but if it meant 1 player not breaking his leg cause of players thinking twice about there challenge im all for it.

After ten years playing in the Manly comp I have been really impressed with the standard of refereeing in the GHFA The majority of the refs have been approachable and have explained their decisions when they don't have to. Of course they have made some errors but even the top refs like Collina make mistakes(Still can't believe he disallowed Duncan Fergusons goal against Villareal in the CL!)

wrote on 09-Jun-06 09:06

ref makes a very sensible point. who amongst you does not make several (or more) mistakes per game? apart from your clear and most often elementary mistakes, and you all make them, sometimes some of your team mates will think you have made a mistake in a situation (taken bad/silly option or whatever) when you dont think you have. its then a matter of opinion who is right/wrong/what should have happened etc,. The exact same thing applies to referees and their decisions. ive seen some very good refereeing this year and ive seen some bad refereeing. ive also seen some good football but ive seen some pretty terrible football too (and im talking 1st Grade here). anyone of you who thinks the refereeing standard in this comp, on average, is not relative to the playing standard needs a reality check. get someone to take a video of your games lads, and I guarantee you that when watching the replay you will cringe at the games'/and your personal playing standard more often than you think. dont feel too bad though - you are human and you are by no means a professional. Just make sure you apply the same understanding to your appraisal of referees.

I have just been made aware of the comments against me on the web site about the incident in the Thornleigh v NER ressies game: I am disappointed that a person, (who would only give an alias) has made an accusation against a specific person yet be totally wrong! I would have thought an apology would be in order for your accusations, cheap shots/comments and baseless opinions. I'm certainly no angel by any stretch of the imagination, I have never backed from a confrontation but, I have never intentionally hit anyone with an elbow (on or off the ball). As for the actual incident; The Thornleigh player was not just late, he was very late and he hit our player, with his forearm, across the chest/neck (that's not a tackle). Yes, the retaliation was over the top, and 'Yes' the referee could have sent more than one off (he can only call it how he sees it). However, I understand that the send off was due to the punches thrown after the fact. Interestingly, it was the same person who was very late with his challenge. Before that game, there was one or two teams that I didn’t particularly like in the comp, due to their type of play (HFC used to be one of them) Thornleigh wasn't one of them. I must confess, Thornleigh are now on that short list. The way that many individuals conducted themselves on the park that day, in both grades, (Damien, I suggest you need to have a good look at yourself) I suggest you have let your club down and set a poor example for your youth members. It's already obvious that your younger players in your squad have very little self control and have turned into nothing less than thugs on the park. This was made perfectly clear when the Thornleigh Keeper vocally rallied his team to (I quote) "go in studs up from now on, lads". Apart from his other indiscretions throughout the game, I thought this opitimised the type of club Thornleigh is currently.

The real Jamie, Blunder are not too bad, perhaps Suplina is problematic to say the least, but over all they're pretty tame. Certainly no KFC.

has made an accusation against a specific person yet be totally wrong! >>> So the accusation was completely wrong?..... Yes, the retaliation was over the top >>> Yet the retaliation was over the top and the accusation is still wrong? and 'Yes' the referee could have sent more than one off >>> Deffinantly no apology now (he can only call it how he sees it). >>> The play continued on for 10 seconds or so after the supposed late tackle with no blow of the referee's whistle. When the referee saw a group of players going at it he blew his whistle and play stopped. Approx 2 or 3 NER players unleashing cheap shots on a defenceless thornleigh player. The referee saw nothing and simply went with what he assumed to have happened. However, I understand that the send off was due to the punches thrown after the fact. Interestingly it was the same person who was very late with his challenge. >>> I wonder why he was throwing punches. NER players ran from 20 or 30 metres and set upon ONE thornleigh player who had no backup. Very courageous from NER.

Dear Mistackle... you have accused me of running 30 yards to throw an elbow... it wasn't me (I'm too fat and old to run that far)! This is what you should be apologising for (you've slandered the wrong person). I have already agreed that there were many actions within the whole incident that could be described as 'very ordinary' to say the least, but you seem quite reluctant to even consider that the initial action (the very late follow through, with forearm raised, by the Thornleigh coward) had any influence on the whole ugly incident. You've blamed individuals incorrectly (by name) youv'e blamed the referee, you've blamed the linesman, you've blamed 3-4 players of the opposition (NER) but not once have you even hinted that a Thornleigh player was even slightly at fault. I was always taught to take responsibility for your actions. I think you're just a wee bit one-eyed.
