Sydney Shield

[Fin077]

Anyone got any info on a draw or who is actually playing in this comp?

Do they play before Bundy Cup?

 

[MountainMan]

Why did Windsor drop out?
Why dont brothers have a team?

 

[***MH***]

The Sydney Shield came about because Wentworthville and Mounties needed a competition for their fringe players whom aren't allowed to play in the Parra/Penrith A Grade competition.

 

[The Wrong Eye]

I assume Brothers aren't in it as they were already in Penrith A Grade comps.
Heard Windsor president was pushing for it to go ahead but the board knocked in on the head, not enough players as they are already committed to Penrith A Grade

Kind of like a Bundy Cup reserve grade isnt it?

Last week:

Mounties 30 Wenty 28
Bulls 54 Cabra 26
Campbelltown bye

this week:

Mounties vs Bulls at Mounties 5pm
Cabra vs Campbelltown at Cabra 4pm
Wenty bye

Mounties confirmed their status as favourites with their first up win last week.

I believe the Bulls are like a "transit lounge" for the Bulldogs Toyota Cup aswell as a Bulls "reserve grade".....I guess its a better quality than playing in a local comp.

But 6 sides???!!! Thats sh*thouse! Seriously. How monotonous would that get playing the same sides over and over

Last year the Parramatta A Grade had 4 teams and this year they were down to three, that's sh*thouse.
6 teams is a luxury.
