My 18B's team- Not playin til week after- not happy!!!
My u13C's that i coach- 12:30 at Wyong- dunno how we will go. I reckon either way we will dominate game- just we cant score at all at the moment...despite havin 2 strikers of A grade standard!

21s and Reserves  (ourimbah) at Berkley- dunno if I am playin this early in season as
1) not ready for reserves yet
2) 21s have like 15 players- so those chances have been cut down!
they seem confident that they will use me later in season- when injuries pile up???

"My u13C's that i coach- ........etc...despite havin 2 strikers of A grade standard!"

Then either the players or the team are wrongly graded ... not something the Association encourages !!!!

unfortunately last year the 11a's and 11e's had to merge?
They were put in 12c's and came 5th or 6th. This is quite a common happening at SEU around that age group.
So to every A/B grade player there may be one of lesser ability...
Do you get what we are saying?
The Association cant do anything bout it unfortunately and it is a bit of a hindrance to the players that may be too good for team (and are loyal to club) or players not good enough (who in turn dont get a fair run).
This is why I personally dont like the idea of 21 clubs on the coast (although I do understand the different positions of clubs that share roughly the same area)

playin for 21s and lookin like I will be on bench for reserves most likely...
lol, last time I played at Berkley it was 16C's and I got man of the match- seriously doubt similar occurence this Sunday! (how big a gap between C's and 21s, lol)

I heard that in the C comp they used to give you man of the match if you managed to put your boots on the right feet

to be fair the standard of the 21s games i have watched have been very poor quality, also have filled in for the 21s once before my grade games as they were short players and that didnt not do anything to change my view.

well to be fair-in a club like Ourimbah 1/2 of their 18s go into Grade, the other half into 21s...so it isnt going to be that high a standard (as high as 18a's for example)(I found 18A's probs a bit more higher in terms of skill). 21s similar to skill level of 18B's?

Arn't most of the guys in grade that played 18s last year from wyoming(daniel edwards, michael horn?) and then lachlan who was at manly until he broke his leg on me last year in a school game.

Skill level of the Gosford side(which u have played) that i filled in for was very poor quality, the lack of basic passing skills and first touch was suprising. The pace i would say is faster in the 21s, but the skill level is down at around a top 18bs lower 18as side.

yea u summed it up pretty well!
But Gosford IMO were better than Kanwal (at beginning)! We beat Kanwal 2-0 (and Gosford 8-4)
lol i dont know any1 from Ourimbah yet (i am so bad with names)
but i do know of Lachlan- he is a crazy good player (didnt know he played for Manly altho that would explain why he is sooo good!). Good thing is that he is playin 18B's as well! (Centreback)...where does he play normally?

tonight i played at the new wadalba fields and lost 3-1 but felt like a win seeing as we had 9 players and they had 13, also they won the 16B's last year and we didnt even make the semis foe the 16C's
