The Australian Championship 🇦🇺🏆

I want to watch both - how dare you limit my viewing.

As longs as Roar and Hellas dont play at the same time, you'll be fine

is it because removing the olympic symbol is removing association with greek heritage?

I think it has more to do with IOC trademark on the 5 overlapping rings symbol mate... Olympic Airways had all sorts of shenanigans in the 60s-70s to change their logo to not infringe.

yer about right, I think this bubbled up due to Sydney 2000 olympics ???

Breakwater Eagles were until they moved out of the Polish Club and became Geelong City. Bell Park Sports Club are the other one although they're more sports club first and venue second. In Melbourne there's also Casa d'Abruzzo (Epping City) that's pretty big

CS George Cross, Western Eagles Polonia & Sunbury United as well. Would be 1 or 2 in Geelong too, or at least was

Cheers, I was only thinking of the NPL tier I suppose.. forgot about Abruzzi club, and I though Georgies didnt have the pokies club anymore? Its been a while since we've played them..

I know Avondale play out of the Reggio Calabria club but I’m not sure what their relationship is with it. I think one of the Brunswick juventus’ might have an association with the abruzzo club. Also Sydney united have the king tomislav Croatian club, and I’m pretty sure Melbourne knights have a little Croatian social club attached too called “Melbourne Croatia soccer club” i believe the nickname is “the bat cave”

The "bat cave" hahaha I havent heard that name since the 90s......

Marconis stadium and history of youth development is top class

One thing that surprised me is that their crowd averages have historically been quite weak

its not easy to drag all their members away from the buffet table and the pokies room on matchday...

So I’m right, I thought I remembered that correctly. See, first I bring back the term “the palace”, now “the bat cave”

If Olympic win against Excelsior this week and South do the usual, Olympic will be second. Don't write them off yet.

I'd be surprised if Olympic win at all. Like Sydney United they've had a poor season.

 

[Monoethnic Social Club]

Yeah, I reckon they would have thought they could get away with it due to them having used it 'historically' or something. I think that only covers the name "Olympic" for them. I wonder how many of the "Olympic" clubs in Australia have this in writing? I know Canberra Olympic has the rings. I wonder if we can get them expelled from the NPL for copyright infringement? Might be one way to get Yoogali back in.

Italians and their vendetta's... sheeesh mate... hahahahahah

Don't go down the copyright ingfringement route, G&G may cop the backlash of your revenge.... lol

You should see their latest reno's in regards to the dining. I wouldn't go anywhere either, it's beautiful.

All this shit talk about Marconi’s crowd numbers..then as I predicted earlier this year, Marconi pull a bigger crowd v south Hobart on a Saturday at lunchtime than both Sydney united or Sydney Olympic. Then refer to my earlier post re crowd numbers at their height, they were always comparable.

Although no doubt in the interest of fairness, United’s fan base has a level of passion that’s hard to match. And the Italian community in this country is much bigger than the Croatian one

also on this, can’t understate what you were saying the other day about “amazing what a sniff of relevance does” as a factor

Spirit have lost all 3 first grade keepers what an absolute disaster

Mate, I dont know what has to happen results wise for it to occur but I would be very very pleased if South has to come to the Palace this year...

They can borrow the one from Syd Olympic, i believe after last weekends shambles 'exodus' to get that through ball (3rd goal) he may still be running, just has ro contine going north to spirit.

HAhaha just shit stirring mate...

Olympic is the biggest dissapointment of them all, they should be rivalling South and Preston but have fallen off a cliff. You can go back to those nsl averages and see they were usually the biggest after South as far as the traditional clubs go.

Well that’s why this has to go to a full home and away league asap. You’d think given the very promising early signs it’s going to be very hard for the power to be to deny.

It definitely hasn’t just felt like npl on planes imo, no doubt there’s been a rise in profile and professionalism, there’s definitely already seen scenes that wouldnt have been possible at regular npl level. Good to see so many people re engage and the general football community get around it as well as new faces etc

One day...

THAT day we will shake the heavens and our cries of "Hellas" or "Roar" will reach Valhalla.........
