PL vs. Invicta

PL is very bad...Invicta is a bit better....Though I think PL is due for a point...I don't think it happens now...That being said, Invicta doesn't really have any "killer instinct" strikers like Penelakut....This game is close...I'm saying 2-0 for Invicta...Prove me wrong PL...Prove me wrong


Invicta vs. Penelakut

Tough weekend for Invicta...Up early after an evening battle with PL...Invicta travels light and Penelakut looks to prove that last week's result was a blip on the radar screen...Pen win this easily 5-2


Zgoda vs. SPL

Zgoda looks to improve on their 4-1 record against an SPL team that seems to be putting up some good battles with teams in the division....That being said, Zgoda's experience, trumps SPL's grit and they earn 3 points....3-0


VW vs. Spartans

This is going to be a battle...Spartans are fresh of stealing a point on Penelakut Island and will be looking to "posterize" VW and prove it was no fluke...VW have been coming on strong and will be out to prove that last week's 1-1 against JDF was a "bad day at the office"...


Shady Lane vs. JDF

After having played JDF last week and apparently being the only team to play the "A" version of Shady Lane...I'm tempted to give JDF the benefit of the doubt....However, Shady Lane has far too much talent to lost to JDF regardless of who shows up. Shady Lane is as, if not more, physical than JDF and will prove to be a tough game...I like Shady Lane to win this game 3-1

[fanatic]

I think everyone is underestimating Invicta. They only have one loss to date. I wouldn't be surprised if they stomp PL and ride the victory all the way up to Penelekut and at least steal a point.

Zgoda should handle SPL. If they don't they'll regret it.

VW should be able to sneak out a victory over the spartans.

Shady Lane should be geared up and ready to get back to their winning ways.

Sorry to disappoint fanatic Invicta did not stomp PL.

[crossbar]

What was the score Sarum?

[crossbar]

Thanks Looking....so, underestimation eh fanatic?

Congrats to PL on their first point of the season!


Anybody have a game recap?

[estario]

Castaways scored around the 25 minute mark on a seeing eye bouncing through ball from beyond half that ended up as a breakaway (even though it was a shanked shot it caught inside of far post).

Much of the next 50 minutes was each team trying to grind through the midfield with little success.

PL scored around the 75 min mark in similar fashion to the Castaways goal only it was a chip by the finisher.

A hell of a save by the Castaways keeper about 5 minutes before that on a shot destined for the top corner from distance.

Castaways missed a couple golden opportunities to take full points near the death.


All in all. A pretty fair result considering the play.

Disappoint? I wrote I wouldn't be surprised with a stomping... and that wasn't a lie. A tie is not disappointing? Whenever two other teams tie and leave a point off the table I am anything but disappointed. Great job PL.

Score from penelakut?

[gulfy99]

Huge battle at pen island it was a even tilt for the full 90. The games are getting tougher for us as teams are gunning to give us our first loss. Penelakut over invicta 2-1 with a late winner from roger Charlie with 2 mins left in the game.

Spartans over VW by a score of 3-1...scoreline was not indicative of the battle that took place...Spartans first goal game off of a corner. It his about 6 guys and then made it's way into the net...Second goal came when Spartans player stuck his foot out and redirected the ball off of the post and in....VW got one back in second half on a beautiful through ball and well placed finish into the corner....Spartans made it 3-1 on a beautiful volley over the VW keeper and into the net.....Cudos to Spartans for taking 3 points....looking forward to the rematch!

Word on the street was SPL over Zgoda by a score of 4-1...4 penalties in the game?

[sarum88]

Quadshot do you have a game recap of the Zgoda SPL game? Crossbar what do you mean by scoreline was not indicative of the battle that took place?

[div1]

Give quadshot till tomorrow before he comes on here and snaps......some would say justifiably....

[bigdaddy]

justifiable? the ref was terribly consistent all game. both teams had 2 PKs, both teams had a dissallowed goal. I don't know how you could complain when you get pumped for 4 goals. give SPL credit, or don't but we comes ready to play.

[realcordova]

You've sort of avoided giving us any useful information there though haven't you? Giving 2 pens each and disallowing a goal each doesn't automatically mean all were right or all wrong calls (therefor even). I wasn't there and have no idea but just saying, sounds like a bit of a smokescreen. 2 pk's for one team could be phantom calls whereas the other two were undeniable, one disallowed goal could be for a blatant infringement whereas the other one has everyone scratching their head... wish we filmed our div 4 games so we could all chime in!!
