Hey, Im that dweeb! It was all in good fun though, nothing like a bit of bullsh#t push and shove between rivals. I tell you though Billy, i dont know what club you play for...who exactly, id probably kick your ass. Damn it feels bad to be playing first grade all season for a few now, plus winning both trophies...i must be sh#t. Dont worry though i dropped myself. Decided that Germany has more appeal to it. In any case i think it will be close this season but i heard that John Spitoni has signed for Eastwood and he is worth at least twenty goals this season.

I have to agree with the Pie Man. The Blunder for the Top 4. My mate played against them in a trial for Lindfield and said they were "strong as" in both grades. I am not fancying the opening day of season, scene of the famous Xmas Cuddle Fest

Liam, both stories are correct. Firstly for some reason most rangers didn't handle the heat at all (self included) even a few fit bods were left wandering around aimlessly suffering heat exhaustion. Doesn't help if you back up i spose. Its the same heat for both camps but they seemed to cope much better than us. It was the worst DY side I have seen and they still beat us in both grades. Says more about us than them. But if you are not hungry enough to bring a full contingent of personel you deserve what you get. I am finding it hard to get the numbers at sessions that other clubs are getting. One team close to us gets 40 to every session. I could really do some proper coaching then instead of using my mathematics skills to juggle blokes between 2 games. Them's the breaks. Speaking of camps, good luck this saturday night. I hear Roselea has put to gether a stunning float.

Birdy Always room for another one on the float.We needed another big bloke to balance the float. We have got Hicky on a corner, Shrek on the other one, Batts is helping out so we need a big man to keep it steady.

Don't feel too bad Batts... one of the Ravens players once managed to exact a similar revenge. The Ravens player in question (Robbie) had been tussling with Gane all game and thought it would be funny if he lay down clutching his forehead in the box - the referee turns around, sees this guy on the ground, and immediately assumes Gane did it and shows him a red card. The irony is that it was probably a reasonable assumption on the ref's part - it just so happens that Gane didn't do anything in this specific case. -- Edwa

I havent heard much from NHM this year and west penno are being very low key. Not sure if thats a good or a bad thing. watch out for the North Epping special this year, we're looking good. we all got the same hair cuts last week and although the board wanted new shirts we insisted on keeping the very arttarctive Orange. I think its called "owranje". 1. North Epping 2. Sta 3. Penno 4. Nhm 5. Roselea 6. Gay 7. West Penno 7. Thornleigh

wrote on 13-Mar-06 17:00

Which is where I step in to assure everyone (well those who are silly enough not to have noticed) that Shanty is in now way shape or form, a Ranger. For a start, we have certainly not been producing any pre-season form to warrant that outburst. And in fact if we were, we would definately not be yelling it from the roof tops like this plonker has just done. It only draws attention to yourself. Me thinks he is more likely from a team that is being lauded as a favourite and is attempting to deflect some of the dreaded pressure that goes with the tag of "favourites". Considering that the Thunder has had mediocre results in the pre-season (as have ourselves) and the Thunder busters that I have spoken to have NOT been talking themselves up I would be reasonably confident that Shanty is from Penno, and i actually have a good idea whom it may be. Seeing that I took the mickey out of a Penno player on the WPH site without anybody else knowing (bar him and a few penno players) i beleive he is a) deflecting & b) giving me a raz. Considering that they have won 8-1, 8-2, lost to the Spirit only 2-1 and yesterday spanked Asquith 7-1, I think a whole lot more deflecting is on its way.

Fox and Covers, I'm not sure about the current crop of youth at Penno but blokes like Morrison and JJ (retired) and I know quite a few others but not sure of names we're the players that were originally from WPH. Boz, Johnno sparks, Shirty are a few of the more recent guys to swap the red white and blue for green and gold. Fox, as I understand it, the early leavers had something to do with the Iredale factor which comes as no surprise I guess. As for Sparks, the then moronic coach we had, cut him! (it was pleasing (to some extent) to see him knock the winner in against us at Penno 1st round that season and to hear Morrison constantly say "they didn't want you, they didn't want you"), Shirty liked the idea of training once a week and again the then coach was not flexible and then there's Boz, what ever the current rumour is for his leaving will do. So Fox, what's you take?... Do you play in either WPH or Penno squads and have some insight?????????

Shanty, I may not have figured it out correctly, but i am tipping I am close, you pond swimmer. What other team would try such a devious cunning stunt. To be honest I don't believe you have it in you, which is why I pointed the finger at the other chap, whom everybody loves. And you are correct in that its gonna be a great season.

It will be tough to predict the winner of this years comp in both grades. One thing is for sure, the local darbies will finally be dominated by different teams. Pennant Hills will be the strongest of the penno teams and take over, Thornleigh look to be stronger than Normo and will at last get out of their shadow, if they dont now then they never will and the mighty Crew Cut Oranges to put further pain on the ugly Crew cut EEW. Woodies will still win the derby of the homos, againts themselves. so it might be a new look top 4, some of the old dogs seem to have lost their bite. Juice, i appreciate the explenation on players leaving and agree with you to an extend. But surely a club of such stature cannot ignore players leaving to thornleigh, penno and some juniors moving to normo in the same year. YMCA for the drop this year.

Shanty, Lets not forget, there are only so many places in a squad. Tim Hill was a loss to Thorns I'll admit, but he has more mates at thunder than at WPH, and always has. That explains his departure. As for juniors, I can't remember a time when so many juniors made the squad as there has been this year - not even the '97 (I think) influx with the seales, bozs and the like. It's true to say that WPH are in a rebuilding stage... but I would say at least 90% of the new faces to the squad are lions juniors.

Jason/McFly, Having played in that team, the 04 team was playing very much the style of football that the 03 coach had moulded us into. Those who watch us play Normo in the 03 GF will remember that. The 04 team (under Kev) towards the end of the season was still playing well but seem to have fallen back into that ineffective long ball WPH has been known to play. Hence why STA deservedly cuts us to ribbons in the 04 GF. If you weren't aware Jason, the coach of 03 is, after coaching Hills United in 04, the current coach. Sure we bagged alot of goals, 3 4-0 wins in 3 of the first 4 rounds and a 7-1 drumming of Putney will add to that. The most consistent team deserved the premeirship that year (regardless of the EEW bungle) but that was largely due to the better football team we were in the 03 season, not one player 'carrying' the team.

Jason
wrote on 14-Mar-06 18:02

Juice I am aware of who the coach was who took over from gino mid 03 but he left west penno at short notice for perceived "greener pastures" at Hills in early 04, when it had been thought he had signed to continue with WPH that year. It is believed he then also left Hills before the 04 season had finished to eventually return to west penno in 05. Hills have an interesting tale to tell on that little saga. WPH definitely did not play as well in 05 as they did in 03 or 04. That coach is yet to show real staying power and I'd have to say the call is still out on the merit of his influence at west penno, especially in view of the drastic changes there this year. We are yet to see if he is in fact the true maistro that is being claimed.

Juice
wrote on 14-Mar-06 21:05

No one is calling him a maistro. Since I have been at WPH there have been only two blokes we've had that have actual qualities as a coach, i.e. they know what they're talking about and have the cred to back it up... Callun and Gus. Under both these guys since 97 to current anyway, is when we have played our best football. ] Unfortunately WPH has always had a problem with coaches - I remember going through six in 5 seasons. Internal disapproval from certain senior players has always been an issue and I would imagine that a team with the quality of players that we have had over this time that has had in my opinion anyway had an average decade of results, would also be frustrating for a coach. Alot of this element has moved on. The younger ones coming through may lack in quality compared to some of the departed, but they more than make up for it in ticker and character. This lot certainly do have much more of a fighting spirit than the previous squads I've been involved in. I know I've said an average decade of results knowing full well we have played in four GFs in 1st, winning two, and one premiership and played in even more res and had similar results in the res GF, but like I said, from what I saw of the oppositions in these seasons, we should have had better premiership results at best.

Juice / Gallo, anyone would think you were on this bloke's payroll, honestly. Andrew Callanan was definitely a breath of fresh air and he got good results from some of you blokes back in 1999 but he didnt stick around. All I'm saying is 04 was arguably west pennos best in more than a decade (thank you Gallo) and your current coach wasnt there then. I would'nt get too far up myself by thinking you played some of your best football last year cause you actually played some of your worst, especially against Thorns both times and more so for most of the second half of the comp. The coaches job is to get the most out of his charges and this justnt wasnt done last year and from what I hear you cant necessarily blame "certain senior players" (is that a touch disloyal?). The younger crop of players have still to be tested both as to their ability and sticking power in this league. But I do defer to your experience on understanding a fighting spirit when you see one, and though a nice cliche, not sure this will be enough this year. Gallo, you got me on your reference to (WPH) being a team this year, isnt that a given?

Juice
wrote on 15-Mar-06 08:07

Jason, No, neither of us are on a payroll. From my perspective, just a loyalty to the coach, no matter who is... No one said 05 was a good year mate, though finishing 2nd and making the GF for the 3rd successive year in a row may constitute a good year for many clubs. We didn't play quality football in 05, that we know. There is no disloyalty towards any player, past or present. All of the senior players have given an enormous amount of service to the club, especially 'love them or hate them' the Iredales. However, for some of the guys that left, it was time perhaps for them to move on, both in their minds and others. Anyway, there's no point in continuing this course of discussion with you. You are not a member of the WPH PL nor as it sounds have ever been. Therefore you have no understanding of what dynamics have taken place over any period of time. All you have to go on is hearsay... and probably from the disgruntled.

Anyway, its good how they talk up their history and their best season, oh it was 03, no it was 04 no sorry it was 03, blah, blah. Gus this and Iredale's are fat that, Seale's like pies, WHATEVER. It makes it sweeter when they lose to Penno or Roselea after they have done nothing but talk about themselves all pre.

Was this guy watching the right game?? "however looks deceive as just 10 mins in a quick break by Salimaee and he slotted the ball past David Erwin in the West Penno goal." "West Penno came out with more organisation after the break and looked like they might make a game of it but a breakway goal when H Hitazi was free in the area, with four red & whites standing marking each other, and receiving a precision ball he slotted it home. The rout was complete in the Salimee getting his brace in the 79th minute when he totally beat the off-side with all but one West Penno player pushed up and he strolled down field to steer the ball past the keeper. 0-4" 1st goal i was over the top off the ball and the forward had both hands in my back and kept pushing me over th top of it so i couldnt get a good swing at the ball. I asked the ref if he was allowed to push with both hands in my back and he said "you were playing the ball so play on" The 2nd goal was very well worked, we did let him run from about the half way line before he gave a nice one two and he slotted it well The 3rd goal wasnt a break a away the guy had a shot and it hit my shin straight to their forward who put it away, The 4th goal the guy didnt beat the offside trap our fullback put a beautiful through ball to him when he was aiming for another one of our fullbacks.

Some serious lessons to be learnt young lions about playing above kindy and AA level (but not sure about the English translation of the game report at www.back-of-the-net.com). What does "throughfully mean? "...just 10 mins in a quick break by Salimaee and he slotted the ball past David Erwin in the West Penno goal. In fact that was the game, with Aurora playing fast and throughfully on the break and defending in numbers. West Penno for their part were much younger and played quite naively at times, especially at the back and their strikers, though lively, were largely ineffectual. If they had just used more discipline and kept ther shape they would have outplayed Arncliffe for more than the few minutes that they did...."

On evidence so far it certainly looks like being a tussle between Penno and Woodies at the top, with maybe Penno being able to psyche em out again; then maybe NMH, perhaps THL and NER fighting for minor positions. I definitely have WPH out of the hunt and this year more likely to be among the rest of the scroungers.

wrote on 16-Mar-06 16:01

Maybe we need a kiddies corner for ben and co, where they can waste only each others time. From what i've been reading, Leo and Bevo arent in the Normo Team. WPH have lost some important players (boz, Iredales and the good Seale) and are relying on youth and STA have also lost some players but not not as many as the above teams. On the other side, there has been some positive feedback about Thornliegh and Penno teams, there also seems to be someone talking NER up but i'm not taking it seriously for now. Is there going to be a change in powerhouses?

Phantom
wrote on 16-Mar-06 16:03

No there will be no change in any powerhouses..(besides maybe WPH) STA, NOR, PEN to still be the top teams as they have been the last 3 or so years.. I seriously dont know where the positive feedback has been coming from for thornleigh, their trial form is mediocre at best as batts has suggested earlier. Penno rightfully though seem to have a good team, but you can not go past STA to dominate again...

If West Penno get relegated this year and after last nights game it could quite easily happen, all the boys that boycotted this for whatever reason will be hanging there heads in shame, not blaming the coach but themselves. At least they will have an All Age ones championship team...big deal. And those who have left to go to other clubs, your even worse.

Ladies, Ladies, theres no need to squable. A person is entitled to change their opinion, a little unwarranted after only 1 pre-season game, but thats his decision. We all know that this forum is now being used for mind games and to some extend childish antics (Ben, you are a classy bloke mate. Its good to see such fine examples being drafted into the police force....) Just in case you didnt pick that up it was sarcasm. You can find the definition of it in the dictionary. The simple facts are that WPH will not be relegated, Normo will be strong, as will Penno and STA. Thornleigh are generating some good football but not enough to be considered top 4 at the moment and even though they talk themselves down, NER will be a top 4 contender also. These are the bare facts and we all know it, West Penno will probably be only top 4 team that will show more change than the others this year but you can never count them out. The first 2 games of the season will indicate greatly how the season will go. Big games.

NO ONE IS TALKING US DOWN !!!!! I am simply correcting the "Deflectors" who are wrongly talking us up. Nothing more nothing less. We have lost 3 players + a vampire and gained 3 players + a vampire. 2 from All Age. In firsts we have simply swapped a 34 year old for a 17 y.o. THAT'S IT!! All your old favourites are back. Stix loitering around up front, "The Mouth from the South" in goal sledging, Captain Josh kicking blokes & the human Pie Oven Jamie wants to play early so he wont miss out if the canteen runs dry. Oh and at 98 kilos (I have lost 2) you wont miss me. The NERds will be the same as last year. Not better nor worse. All I am hoping for is that other top 4 candidates self destruct by massive defections; or weaken themselves by not selecting their best players in their squad making them toothless; or select a coach who is clueless and hence wastes their young talent. That way we may break the 5th place hoodoo that Budgie placed on me with a voodoo doll and sneak into the semis behind the aptly titled "Grave Diggers" & "Magillas Gorillas".

It stands to reason that there would be a fairly high proportion of comment relating to West Pennant Hills on the old website as the site was for WPH. Same names on the forum here and same conversation now so why do you think it would be any different Copper?

Just a tip, Some people like to live in the past and refer to it when convinient, others prefer to look to the future and live for the current day. I find referring to past victories, especialy in juniors, as resignatinatory action. i would prefer to continue the conversation about this season and this years teams wiithout having to read west penno players comparing their 03 team to their 02 team. It would also be nice for some of the has beens (or never beens) who are not going to be involved PL anymore, to stop talking as they can no longer back it up on the pitch (not that they ever did) and leave with at least some dignity and not blame knee injuries for their lack of skill.

With regards to me "not being the smartest bloke" I will leave you to your judgement. One thing you should know is how to spell psychic. The "tone" of my entry was simply to point out a quite obvious reason for a large amount of talk within this forum to relate to West Pennant Hills. Give it a little time and the talk may expand to more interesting topics like World Dictionary Day. Thank you for your tip - this is indeed true. Some people do like to refer to the past when convenient. Unfortunately we cannot all win the competition every year so sometimes people may delve into their past for their glory days. This is human nature and some may refer to it as "remembering the good times". As for your comment about WPH players comparing teams from 02 and 03 and 97 and whenever, you must remember that you have made the conscious decision to sit here and read these comments and that if you do not like the content then it is very easy: don't read it.

Big games. Just thought i would bring this post up as whoever GHFA fan is, he has basically got it 100% correct..... So how does everyone see it turning out at the end of the season now? Who is going to be in the top 4? and who is going down? Macquarie UNI are 99% certain of being up nect year aswell, so a nice oval to play on next year perhaps? whats your take on it all???

The next few weeks are going to interesting with team line ups very differently from the first round. We have lost Hicky for the next few weeks after he scammed a work trip to the UK then extended it to go the World Cup. According to the gossip STA and Normo have both lost important players. I reckon its between WPH and Penno if the gossip is correct
