SAASL Pre-Season Cup

[tibbaw]

Going by results....inter seem to not be fielding their best 11 in this tourney or are they simply being outplayed. Having played them already I'd say That they are mixing their sides up in this cup???

Believe they have played ressie squad in both games

Why? I would have thought it'd be a good chance to test themselves against quality opposition, especially given they're in Div 1 this year.

8 c's and 6 ressies made up the squad against the Vale

[DOC]

The round robin stage concludes at Kilburn this Friday with Saturday sides Uni Blacks and Saints squaring off in the early game while Sunday champions Gardens face Vista who won div 2.

Should be 2 cracking games and hopefully there is a big crowd down there.

Any predictions?

I can see Uni winnning 2-1 and vista of course

[tibbaw]

Uni by a couple and Gardens in a close one

[DOC]

uni looked good against the farm so i think they will win but saints put on a good showing last time out at kilburn so i reckon it will be close

As we well know Saints are our big rivals so anything could happen.

If Gardens have Agius back they should account for Vista, however as seen against Para Hills East they struggle without him.

hardly think they struggle without him as they have many quality players....cant read to much into pre season form

True, one game taken out of context is misleading.

The game I saw Parafield play against Adelaide Villa, he was causing all sorts of problems with his long range shooting which really put Villa under the pump.

Any results/reports from tonight's games?

How is JJ playing at vista?

[bored]

4-4 Uni vs st peters

Vista 3-1 gardens

[swannsong]

4-4 Uni vs st peters

Vista 3-1 gardens

Congrats to the Vista lads !

[KING NUGGETT]

Congratulations Vista

[BlackBrian_7]

From a neutral perspective, Vista's energy was too much for Parafield Gardens and their disorganised/shakey defence was exposed a lot by Vista. The African lad for Vista looked pretty good and dangerous, was surprised when they took him off.

In the Uni game, as I said anything can happen! 4-4, time to go back to the drawing board.

[DOC]

So the semis are next week?

Vista v Uni

Bosa v bosna

This correct

[BlackBrian_7]

According to the fixture information on the League website it is Uni v Bosna & Vista v BOSA.

[DOC]

Bit odd considering when the groups were decided

[giggseleven]

Vista have a game against the downs on Sunday so players were rested. Plenty of players to come back for both gardens and Vista. The season will tell a completely different story. Look forward to another game against the gardens.

Congrats on the win and your ripper of a goal giggs11, good to see a bit of forum decorum

And JJ is playing good, slotting in well had a good game last night.

Gardens 1 (Velaquesz 43') Modbury Vista 3 (Carmen 58' , Williams 76' , 78' ) , 40 min halves .....Modbury left it late , but were the fitter team .

You right giggseleven the Gardens do have pleanty to come back, with 9x 1st Team starters out last night. No excuses as I said before congratulations to Vista deserved the win & Well Done to our Reserves for a solid performance...

We look forward to the season proper !

Gardens 1 (Velaquesz 43') Modbury Vista 3 (Carmen 58' , Williams 76' , 78' ) , 40 min halves .....Modbury left it late , but were the fitter team .

Just a correction Daniel brzezinksi scored the first.

[tibbaw]

Uni 4 (P.Decelis 2, M.Decelis 2) Saints 4 (Unsure of scorers). High intensity scrapy game, Uni did enough to get through to the semi's but disappointed to hit the lead with 4 mins to go only to concede a late equaliser. Well contested game and some good goals from both teams.

Should change your team to Adelaide Vale

Thought that was odd. We all know pc has a nose bleed every time he crosses the halfway line.
