Bloody old Waitakere, they do this every season, more so than Central, I'm being idealist here but I don't really want them to win on the back of players who will only play roughly a third of the season for them. Sports could topple them, it's a possibility, and one which I hope occurs.
Melville are unbeaten at home this season, I'm heading to that game but I just can't quite forecast a win, it was nice to get five goals against Glenfield but the likes of Sam Jasper and Dave Parkinson are going to be much harder to break down. 2-1 to Birko is my unbiased prediction but I would love to finally have another Hamilton side in the semis.
As for the other two quarters - what's the thoughts down in Wellington? Obviously Olympic are a good side but Cavvy are too, and they love making the semifinals. Thinking a slight Olympic victory for mine, while I think Cashmere Tech should be too good for PNM? Lots of Canty United players going against a team pushing above their weight.
Just the one Saturday game, should be a cracker, will be providing updates on Twitter for anybody interested but I'm sure there will be plenty doing the same.
Waitakere City have brought in 4 ASBP players all off whom played for Waitakere City last season
Krishna, Butler, Myers and Turner
I think you'll find that a few clubs have more than 4 ASBP players in there squads currently
Are these players supposed to not play at all in Winter?
How many Waikato players are in Hamilton Wanderers team?
If Waikato make ASBP playoffs next season and missed start of Northern League season would you object to them playing for Wanderers or Melville at conclusion of ASB season
And do you object to Aaron Scott joining Melville halfway through this year after Waitakere Utd finished O-League
How many Hawke's Bay Utd players at Napier City Rovers
How many Otago Utd players at Caversham?
How many NZFC players at Bay Olympic?
Cavy have 6 by my reckoning plus this kid Jackson who will be this season unless the nix or someone else grabs him-had to laugh at the bay Olympic comment! Ouch all those national league players and in a relegation battle
The Bay Olympic comment was just pointing out that plenty of clubs have lots of ASBP players,
It wasnt suggesting that having them guarantees success quite the contrary in their case
