Grumpy Old Mens 4 v The Gardeners 0

Cup predictions

Coastal 3 Tech 1

Caversham 5 Roslyn 0,Hancock to score all 5

grants braes offically can't win the league now, that new coach worked a treat

I heard there were a few dramas at their game on the weekend.

Does anyone know what happened?

player coach from mos took exception to a rough challenge on his son, guess who the Braes player was??

i'm hearing the big fella won't be back for the rest of the season, Al Laider has had enough & quite simply the club can't afford to play the thug 

Chatham Cup results from Christchurch:

Cashmere Technical 2 Nelson Suburbs 0 HT 1 - 0

Coastal Spirit 0 Dunedin Tech 2  (Rickerby, Lockhart) HT 0 - 2

Western 1 Otago University 0 HT 0 - 0

Green Island 6 Northern 2.

Some of the islands goals were really top drawer stuff. Very complete performance on a park where it's tricky to play good footy.

Park?

They are the Gardens, plant some spuds there and play on something resembling a football pitch

Massive game this week, can GI beat Mosgiel? Mosgiel will throw in new recruits Kris & Nicky Wheeler to rectify their poor league standing

Sorry Conte, no chance for the blue splutter

i tend to agree Dino

Good luck to Cavy & Tech for their cup games i guess, what days are which teams playing on? 

Just read the programme this week & agree with Roslyn supporter Rab Smith, i think it's time for Northern to scrap the Gardens & play at Forrester Park, play the games at 12:45pm so it doesn't get too cold & also get the added bonus of not having to shower in something that resembles a gas chamber

The only Premier game in Dunedin on Saturday was played on a substandard pitch, its a disgrace.

Southern Region 
Dunedin Technical v Western – Caledonian, Sun 8
Caversham v Cashmere Technical – TBC

are cavy going to play on the sat? hope so as i want to watch both games

Hi Conte,

Any chance of a write up of the GI game? Would like to watch but cant make the game.

Thanks

sorry, will be back in Dunners next week

Todays results:

Tech 1 Caversham 3

Grants Braes 1 University 1

Points: Cavy 25, Tech 24, Green Is. 18, Roslyn 16, Mosgiel 14, University 13, Queenstown 10, Northern 9, Grants Braes 4

expected result

Today's results:

Mosgiel 2 Roslyn 1

Quenstown 7 Grants Braes 1

Grants are in some difficulties at the moment, Al is doing his best, team/players attitude is poor/struggling. A week off will help them.

The Horse is starting to look like the Moana SLIDE.

PICKS

Time for the Onions to cement 3rd against Varsity (Holidays and all). 4-1 home win

Stripies to win 2-1 over the Mosgolians 

Grumpy Old MEns Club 4 - 1 over Butlins

Horse to loose 2-4 to The Arse

Scott Gannon = broken?

Heard Donnie played well for the seconds but that's about it on the GI front. 

Surprised in the stripes win, looked very agricultural against the onions. The bearded short striding front man looked useful but the rest were heavy footed!

i heard the opposite about Donnie

Geez that was terrible, onions of old. Think it was either 4-1 or 3-1 loss, due to disappointment i kinda lost count .

Missing the broken Aussie, Joel and the two wide backs. Made a huge difference. Varsity were very good especially down the left flank.

I was being sarcastic about Donnie, he has the touch of Mark Ellis!

not a good result for the island, i hear Mosgiel could be playing an unregistered player? unless he transferred back a few years ago, would be a shame to lose the points vs Roslyn & Northern

Two losses in a row, the onions are sliding..

Woah the Rosyln website is finally back up...

move ahead of Mosgiel cause GI will beat the Braes and Mosgiel have zero chance against Caversham

Sorry to change the subject somewhat.  What happened with the ref that got suspened and then reffed again? 

http://www.odt.co.nz/news/dunedin/213501/eight-match-ban-football-referee-after-racist-remarks-game

Looked put the scores and can only find a 4-1 win to varsity over northern, can't find any others?
