The overwhelming impression i got when i was on the way home was that in the last 20 minutes Otago showed that they could play football. The reason that they didn't show that early was because i felt they lacked motivation. They only seemed to want to play decent football after wellingtons thrid goal which involved jackson getting chopped down on halfway and them scoring. It seemed there only motivation was to try and some how prove the ref wrong by trying to salvage a draw.
Sorry Dino i missed page 1 1st up good work
Christie to move to Dunedin? Are you that bored???
Rumors going round hes signing for queenstown due to uni commitments however iv'e also heard he is on the verge of getting mckenzie and parkin to play alongside him at queenstown.
iv'e been wrong before..
Im aware that Jasper has been asking for 300 a game and same with Mckenzie at Tech but both clubs can only offer 299 and they wont take that!!
I can confirm this rumour is true.
Detrimental..$300 a game! Come on now really did you mean $30?, I would properly agree with that statement with Parkin I think he will be the linchpin of Dunedin Techs defense this year and if something were to happen to him with chisom already gone they could be in big trouble for there shot at winning the 1st league title in more than 10 years, Mckenzie on the other hand has he ever really done anything good at Tech ?From the games I watched last year he seemed to hide on the big occasion�s when a national league player of his standard (if he is up to the standard) should take the game by the neck ( As did Coburn with his header against Mirama and all round crushing tackles,Burgess HATRICK,And well the page isn�t big enough for the list of what Chisom contributed to those games) and I haven�t seen him do that yet. Although I haven�t seen him play for Wellington he does get big raps on yellowfever so he must be doing the right things on the field or he�s just paying his $300 match fee back to the right people on on these forums. Did he play against Otago? I can�t remember seeing him although he may have been on the bench.
Any news on new signing�s in Dunedin big 3? Apart from J cristie of course
Ha are you sure he isn't going to Tech with Christie..The phonix will be playing at Culling next.
To be honest, there are stuff all players imo that are worth cash, however if they can get it, good on them. This game needs as much money going to it as opposed to going to other sports and if a foundation is giving money to footballers as opposed to rugby then I'm in favour of that (note other sports, not community benefits - different issue)
So they are getting it, it doesn't affect you, so why even talk like that...
Deception is rife everywhere in this world and its not limited to what coach gets a fence in Otago - ask Doug Rollerston. If that offends you enough the say 'Internal Affairs' then you are one sheltered person because there are bigger shams going on in football in New Zealand outside of Otago (let alone outside of football socially in NZ). Thats not an accusation of you personally, just a statement.
NZF can't run any programs or the ones they do run are so tight on purse strings its almost not worth the exercise yet ACFC and Waitakere United get over 1 million from charities to run their club when its clearly going on players wages? 5 other franchises (I'll leave HBU out) are struggling to even get the entrance fee to enter the league. No one goes poking their noses into that sham or cries 'disgrace' yet you are huffing over a fence and other little oddities? Perspective there mate....
If the cash goes into 'football' as opposed to any other sport then I'll take that. I may not like what it gets spent on, but 1 million to ACFC or a fence to a coach in Dunedin is 1 million less to rugby and a happy coach that has a new fence.

Ive heard jasper has been wearing pink boots at his summer soccer in Auckland...
Ex Hawkes Bay and varsity big man Liam McKinley has moved from varsity to tech - a very good replacement for John Chisolm. He is better on the ball than Chisolm and is just as effective in the air. A pairing with Cambel "Mr Soccer" Parkin will be the begining of a great partership between the two.
Truth, what is Nick Dale doing this season?
Im really not sure never met the guy,Properly sitting on the bench again or playing in the vacant rightback spot left by Hayden gun and Ricki Chidley after leaving for there respected clubs?It could be a problem position for Tech again this year
Your thoughts?
thetruthnz2009-02-20 12:33:33I think that if Christie signs with tech he can play there too. It will be a good battle between Christie and Dale to see who picks up the role... with all of the other places on the field takn - christie might not even make the tech startin lineup!
