Group C and Group D are not as difficult.

Group D seems to be the easiest of the lot though and Preston Lions should be topping the group comfortably.

Gonna have to get a lot of practice on synthetic in to prepare for those away games.

Do many of you blokes reckon south will get many away at Sutherland, would assume Sydney united will be the main Sydney away day this year. Unique little game that’ll be. I’d say high chance it’s the first time the two clubs have ever played. You’d not have thought Sutherland were heading in this direction the way they held onto their npl 1 status by the skin of their teeth for multiple years this decade, but good on em for what they’ve been able to achieve

Is rather go to that match for a few reasons.

Never played them; I have already been to Edensor Park; could fit in a swim; I think it’s marginally closer to where I would stay.

It will probably depend which weekend suits me more

Will be aiming to go all 3 away games this year. Last year was very tricky to get to broadmeadows on the Sunday and Brisbane on the fruday with work commitments.

Depends on the schedule for me.. Edensor Park is a lock, already discussed with the boys, and Canberra, if its Thursday or Friday will be a "business trip" .. Will try and go to Sutherland, but November is a pain in the arse with work travel anyway so depends on how close it is to the other two...

Interesting watching suited and booted Stefan Zinni said lakeside playing surface is the worst hes played on this yr and described it like a cricket pitch.

Worst is complete overkill but its really looked ordinary at times this season. One game about a month ago where it was so sandy and bumpy everywhere.

Every time it starts coming good some school athletics carnival rocks up midweek and stuffs it.

Probably for the best they dont make anymore finals then... Pffft as if he really thinks Lakeside is the worst after some of the doozies served up by other NPL clubs this year..... hateful prick.

Dandy City literally play on a cow paddock not saying Lakeside is the greatest surface in the world but come on now

You are right. Yes the Lakeside pitch has been ordinary at time, but its far from the worst. We have played on some really awful surfaces this year.
