Excellent Wests in the final again too bad my home town team( they
are Porirua based) have no players living in the area or so I
believe. Oh well still they made the final.

Mind you what teams in the Central League have all their players live in the respective area, having said that I believe in there current senior team roster there are probably up to 8 players who live in the "greater Wests region" i.e. from JVille, Tawa, Whitby, and Paraparaumu. chareimos2007-08-11 19:27:48

thats good news . the clubrooms lack character THOUGH I SUPPOSE THE
HISTORY OF THE CLUB IS ALL UP AT THE OLE ACADEMY. THEY NEED THINGS
ON THE WALLS ETC

There used to be plenty of history adorned on the walls, when we
moved from the Kenepuru clubrooms to Endeavour.
i agree it is a shame that the history of the club has no
place on the walls, just recent achievements and tops and t-shirts
of recent visitors.

Western were a functional if boring team, size advantage, Cavvie
were noticeably smaller.
Cavvie lost a bit of their way after the loss of the import up
front, hammy. They play an attractive style, quick movement of ball
and player.
2nd goal was goalkeeper error. Third goal was pushing forward,
tired legs left space.
The ginga called Roddy was impressive, quick, strong.
John Harrahap is the most overrated player Iv'e played
against, he was overrated when he played down south, The Gorilla
next to him was entertaining, even if Cavvie should have exposed
his lack of pace.
Keeper looked class.

Dino10 were you at the game? sounded like a real battle. wouldve
been interesting if Dave Walker was able to play the full 90mins, i
hear he is quality, will he play NZFC?

Ive only watched Cavvie a couple of times this year, Dave does look the goods except there are some concerns about being injury prone. Cavvie nurse him every game.
Cavvie play an attractive flowing game but probably lacked the depth across the paddock to beat Wests. Wests out muscled them in the midfield but lacked flair, very one dimensional. Overall Wests deserved the win.It would be good if Canterbury and Otago could sort out a
South Island League. There are three teams in the Southern League
who are well above the rest. Overall the standard has slipped in
the last 10 years. Some very average teams, Southland (Old and
slow, Kenny Cresswell is playing for them), Green Island, Grants
Braes, Mosgiel etc

Would agree totally, I understand that Southland are the only other
one from the Southern League that have indicated they are keen.
Would be a mistake to include them, they are poor at best.
The whole point is to increase the standard.
It now all depends on the Christchurch/Nelson teams.

and i dont know of many leagues were all the teams have the same
quality of players, there will always be some teams that are better
and some that are below par

The difference in the teams is comparable to the difference in Grades. There is a very noticeable gap between 3rd and 4th.
Where are Mosgiel sitting on the table?
