Some great touches by Auva'a and Carter.

Thanks for that.

Spot on Auva'a and Carter looked very good.

Shame Auva'a will most likely miss 2 matches.

[IN THE KNOW]

Don't know anything about him but he does sound like a possibility, how is he for pace, can he break tackles, what's his style of play?

Was @ Parra for a few years NYC and NSW CUP , Tigers NSW cup has a highlights tape on you tube. i think if he finds form could be a good back up at Norths or some depth for the Bunnies ??

[IN THE KNOW]

Yeah , thats the clip i saw, has some skill and size and from what Ive heard is agood defender,reads the defense well. As has plyed with some guys already at the bunnies could be one to keep an eye on for the rest of the year to see how his form is after coming back from injury.

"Fill the Hill" at North Sydney Oval this Sunday
Fri 17th July, 03:30PM

The iconic North Sydney Oval is set to light up on Sunday as fans are being urged to “Fill the Hill” in a vital VB NSW Cup fixture for both clubs.

A venue filled with rich history and tradition, the illustrious hill, from where thousands of fans flocked to watch the likes of Jason Taylor, Peter Jackson and Greg Florimo run around, will light up once again as North Sydney look to climb into the top-eight.

Club legend Florimo has advised fans to turn out in numbers, calling on a big show of support from the North Sydney faithful to get behind them against the Magpies.

“It looks sensational when it’s full. It’s a great backdrop for the players and they certainly enjoy having a good crowd turning up,” Florimo said.

“You can’t ask for a better afternoon than sitting on the hill in the sunshine, watching your kids running around and riding on their scooters, watching a great game of footy.

“That sort of picturesque aspect, the picket fence, the heritage stand, it all adds to the experience.

“Even though we don’t have anymore NRL matches played there, a number of the NRL players end up turning up. On any given day you can see Greg Inglis or George Burgess at North Sydney Oval because they enjoy the experience so much.”

Both teams have vastly improved in the past month, with the Bears recording just one loss since round nine, going for three wins and two thrilling draws against Mounties in that period.

Bears coach Ben Gardiner echoed the sentiments regarding the historic venue. “We’re trying to get as many people there as we possibly can whether they’re new or old fans or just fans who want to get out on a Sunday to enjoy themselves on the hill,” Gardiner said.

“It’s like in the NRL, where the more people you get at the ground with the more noise and support, whether it’s heckling or yelling or people barracking for you, it just gives you a rise because you know there are people there rooting for the same game as you are.”

North Sydney v Wentworthville: Sunday afternoon “Fill the Hill” blockbuster
(North Sydney Oval, Sunday 19 July, 
3:00pm)

Listen Live on Sunday at 3:00pm via 100.1FM or triplehfm.com.au

The North Sydney Bears and Wentworthville Magpies meet for a classic Sunday afternoon of football – dubbed “Fill the Hill” – at North Sydney Oval.

Both teams have vastly improved in the past month, with the Bears recording just one loss since Round nine, going for three wins and two thrilling draws against Mounties in that period.

“I expect a side that will fight as hard as they can as they have the past six weeks,” Bears coach Ben Gardiner said. “Wentworthville have done a great job at keeping in the game and fighting. They’re a side that’s struggled with close games like us.

“Against Mounties, we were in position to win but we allowed them back into the game because we didn’t take the bull by the horns. If we go in with the same approach against Wenty, you have to be careful because they bounce back and stay in the game for the whole 80 minutes.”

Gardiner states the team has greatly benefited from bonding together.

“We’ve been working hard as a team and spending more time together,” Gardiner said. “When you work together as group, you start to get better performances because people are on the same page. I thought that would be difficult because like every club at the NSW Cup level, you’re dealing with people coming in and out of the NRL and Under 20s.

“That’s one of the challenges for the NSW Cup- you don’t always have everyone train with you. But we’ve been lucky to have everyone training for one or two sessions each week, which is obviously more effective because people have more cohesion in their roles.”

Gardiner is calling on a big show of support from the North Sydney faithful to get behind them against the Magpies.

“We’re trying to get as many people there as we possibly can whether they’re new or old fans or just fans who want to get out on a Sunday to enjoy themselves on the hill.

“It’s like in the NRL, where the more people you get at the ground with the more noise and support, whether it’s heckling or yelling or people barracking for you, it just gives you a rise because you know there are people there rooting for the same game as you are.”

Interesting to see Kyle starting and Carter at hooker.

Hopefully they put in a good performance, pretty sure the Pies are last.

 

[alien]

pretty sure the Pies are last.

yeah wenty are last

 

[rabbitohs95]

Heard they lost 27-20 which is disappointing but does anyone know how they went? Especially Turner i'd like to know.

Wentworthville Magpies 27 (B Henry 3, F Goodall, V Toutai tries; Henry 3 goals; Henry field goal) bt North Sydney Bears 20 (C Walker 2, J Reddy, J Gosiewski tries; D Nicholls 2 goals)

SUMMARY: Wentworthville have resisted a North Sydney Bears fightback to pick up an important 27-20 victory. Magpies halfback Beau Henry scored an early hat-trick for the visitors, before calmly slotting a field goal to seal the win. The Bears welcomed back Rabbitohs-contracted Kyle Turner, who inspirationally returned from a serious injury.

Awesome many thanks.

Disappointed we lost to the team coming last though seriously.

Good to see Cody Walker again getting 2 tries. Wonder how many he's racked up for the season.

I went to the game although the 14 Schooners I had before made the game a bit cloudy!!

I think Turner may have even played the whole game which was good to see. I thought Paul Carter was very good yesterday. Was hitting very solid in defence.

One player who did impress me and I'd never heard of was Cheyne Whitelaw the young lock. Played well and got a beautiful off load out at one stage. I think he is still very young.

Yeah I heard all that.

Also heard Cheyne got man of the match. He's still eligible for 20's this year so but he's been playing Bears all year when not injured. Great young forward, doesn't have much height on him but has a lot for strength, I can recall playing against him was not fun.

Turner played 72 minutes.

Good to hear Whitelaw played well.

Thanks for the info mate.

Do you know if we are keeping him next year?

I assume we are but you never know!
