Olympic snatched a 1-1 draw against Blacktown City and were unlucky to get the win during an thrilling It has been a horror season for the Gavin Rae coached end to end encounter. side who have hit rock bottom in 2019. However, that has been the story of the reigning Nothing the Eastern Suburbs side do seems to work premier’s season with flashes of excellence undone compounded by the fact their attack has failed to fire by moments of madness. scoring a league worst tally of only nine goals from 14 matches this season. Coach Abbas Saad is surely desperate for answers as he searches for a way to return his team to the Hakoah historically has frustrated opposition sides heights of last season. with dogged defence and pragmatic football but it’s been a gameplay which hasn’t quite hit the mark this Saad has made a number of small changes to his year. team in recent weeks including moving Will Angel to a central defensive position while moving incumbent Olympic will be heavy favourites for this game but centre back Tom Whiteside out to right back. with the threat of Relegation looming maybe Hakoah will find a new lease of life to save themselves from These changes have failed to help Olympic find the drop. major improvement but don’t expect the squad tinkering to end until results start going the Blues way. 1ST GRADE - NPL NSW MEN’S POS TEAM P W D L F A GD PTS 1 Wollongong Wolves FC 14 9 3 2 34 13 21 30 2 APIA Leichhardt Tigers FC 14 7 4 3 25 21 4 25 3 Blacktown City FC 14 7 3 4 18 15 3 24 4 Sydney United 58 FC 14 7 3 4 23 25 -2 24 5 Rockdale City Suns FC 14 7 2 5 19 22 -3 23 6 Manly United FC 14 5 5 4 20 19 1 20 7 Marconi Stallions FC 14 6 1 7 32 25 7 19 8 Sydney Olympic FC 14 4 5 5 25 24 1 17 9 Sutherland Sharks FC 14 3 6 5 17 18 -1 15 10 Mt Druitt Town Rangers FC 14 3 5 6 23 32 -9 14 11 Sydney FC 14 4 2 8 21 30 -9 14 12 Hakoah Sydney City East FC 14 2 1 11 9 22 -13 7 NPLNSW.COM.AU 5 1ST GRADE TEAM LISTS 1ST GRADE REVIEWS Blacktown City 1 – Sydney Olympic 1 at Lily Homes Stadium Blacktown City and Sydney Olympic have shared the spoils after an exhilarating 1-1 draw at Lily Homes Stadium on Sunday. It was a thrilling end to end encounter with Olympic unlucky not to snatch an unlikely victory in a frantic final minutes. Joey Gibbs fired home for Blacktown midway through the second half, but it was quickly cancelled out when Olympic equalised only two minutes later through Radovan Pavicevic. Both sides traded chances in crazy closing ten minutes but neither could find the breakthrough as they took only a point away from an enthralling contest. Hakoah Sydney City East 0 – Rockdale City Suns 4 at Hensley Athletic Field Rockdale City Suns re-entered the NPL NSW top five and heaped more misery on rock- bottom Hakoah Sydney City East with a 4-0 win at Eastgardens on Sunday. Nick Porreca’s side had dropped out of the finals positions following their five-goal collapse against Marconi Stallions a week ago but returned at the expense of Manly United after strolling past the luckless Hakoah at Hensley Athletic Field. Jordan Figon and Leigh Egger fired in scrappy first-half goals before Suns striker Figon sealed his double and put the visitors in the clear five minutes after the interval. Alec Urosevski added a fourth late on, consigning Hakoah – who lost ex-A-League star Predrag Bojic and his replacement James Combes to injury inside the space of 34 first half minutes – to their eleventh defeat of the campaign. It leaves Gavin Rae’s side seven points adrift of eleventh-placed Mt. Druitt Town Rangers at the foot of the ladder. 8 #NPLNSW TEAM OF THE WEEK 01: LARGE USE: OVER 150MM WIDE This logo has a smaller ‘®’ symbol FOOTBALL NSW WOULD LIKE TO THANK THEIR SPONSORS FOR THEIR CONTINUED SUPPORT 02: SMALL USE: 55MM - 150MM WIDE This logo has a larger ‘®’ symbol NPLNSW.COM.AU 9 APPAREL PARTNERS keep our game beautiful INTEGRITY IN SPORT 01 Football NSW and the 25 September 2018 Printed colours C M Y K National Premier Leagues NSW File name Kelloggs_Special K_K Logo_RGB Client Kelloggs Project Master Logos Artworker AM Cutter ref N/A Print process N/A are bound by 40 Chancery Lane, London, WC2A 1JA.

  • Old Soccer, New Football. 69
    Off the Ball: Ethnicity, Commercialism and Australian Football, 1974-2004. A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Bachelor of Arts (Honours) in History. University of Sydney Joe Gorman Joe Gorman 308216385 Abstract Despite its seemingly marginal role in Australian sport, football (soccer) contributed significantly to public debates regarding multiculturalism and imagined Australian national identity. This thesis explores the relationship between the ongoing de-ethnicisation of Australian football and the game’s rapid commercialisation. I contend that the introduction of a new professional competition in 2004 rounded out decades of attempts by football administrators to downplay the ethnic image of the game in order to sell the game to a ‘mainstream’ audience. 2 Joe Gorman 308216385 Acknowledgments This thesis is for my Dad, who introduced me to the pleasures of football, and the value of writing. Many thanks also to my supervisor Richard White, who helped turn my love of the game into an academic pursuit. 3 Joe Gorman 308216385 Contents. Introduction. 5 1. A Sporting People. 10 2.

I was eight years old when I first saw my father cry. He left the room, walked to the kitchen and stared out into the night as unwanted tears squeezed out. There had been no death in the family, no tragic accident, no argument with my mother – the usual reasons to drive a fully-grown man to tears.
