Waimak finished a game off by getting two players sent, with one of them throwing (and hitting) a referee with the ball, after the red card. Ridiculous.

surprised to see Waimak involved in such carry on...

Same - usually they're all class! They might be tomorrow with a few of their players only able to watch....

Some huge games in the girls draw tomorrow, with Wellington United who sit top of Pool A to play Coastal Spirit A and Cashmere Tech while Coastal's other game is against an impressive Parkland's outfit. In Pool B 3 teams, FC Twenty11, Stop Out and Western all level on 7 points after 3 games with Stop Out set to play FC and Western in their remaining pool games. Very tight in both pools with the winners playing the final on Monday, no quarters or semis for the girls this year due to the 12 team format.

Huge norwester came up over the course of the day seriously affecting some of the games depending on whether the field was setup North /South or East/West, hopefully it stays away for tomorrows crucial games. Forecast is for moderate westerlies with bulk sun shine. Not looking so good on Monday with light rain and moderate southerly forecast.

Still windy but easing off, hopefully better by the time games kick off at 9:30

Bit of a shock in the semi then today with Coastal going down! 

Mosgiel v Nomads final tomorrow

Mosgiel well worth the win as were Nomads in the other semi. Will be a top game in the final, no doubt the 2 best teams playing for the title. Another awesome day of football despite the blustery conditions

Has anyone seen any of Southlands games? How did they look?

Haven't seen them other than a penalty shoot out Big Homie... Sorry...Although they have made top 8  I think so can't be too bad

Last comment may be a bit harsh. Southland is unbeten in regular time, losing to Mosgiel in the quarters on penalties then Burwood on penalties.

Well done to Mosgiel on winning the final 2 nil over Nomads with a goal in each half.

Mosgiel the better team all over the park and played the last 25 mins with 10 after a player got [looked like] a double yellow card, must have been one for the tackle and one for back chat.

Nomads should have grabbed an equaliser early in the second half but blasted over when it looked harder to miss than score.

Riley in goal for Mosgiel got a ear full from the spectators behind his goal for the whole of the second half, well done son for not getting involved you had the last laugh on those that didn't make the grade.

Enjoy the trip home.

Have to say it was a great girls final between Parklands United & FC2011 with FC winning 1-0 with a well taken goal in the first half, thought Parklands were probably a little unlucky not to get the win, some really good football on display, also well done to Coastal for a well run weekend

I've never seen a double yellow card before. One for the tackle and then one for kicking the ball away in the same 3 seconds.

That's why Coastal got rated 3 stars by Stretford End.

Can't believe I screwed up for Mosgiel's first goal. Still peeved off about it, misjudged the bounce and it goes straight over my head to their LM/LW. He was class throughout the tournament.

He is class but you guys erred by playing young PR on him. Total mismatch right there.

He's always been a CB from what I've known, but he would have gained heaps of experience from playing in this tournament, no doubt.

I sure did learn a lot from playing in this cup for the first time, way more intense then playing in 18th 2nd Div this season.

Did James McGarry play for Mosgiel?

Yip, I think he even got named MVP.  It was one of the McGarrys...  And not the Dad.

haha just found this now. my tackle was definitely not reckless
