17/10/10: State Titles Success
STATE TITLES SUCCESS
For those who are not aware State Titles was concluded on the 9 October at various country locations.
The KDSA and Central Coast Football play as a combined region known as Metropolitan Far North (MFN).
Teams were chosen after trials several months ago. Players selected for our combined region needed to reside within the two association boundaries. Most of these players are involved in representative football. All the hard work in organizing teams, booking accommodation etc for these October games was undertaken by committee members of the Northern Tigers.
The five teams that played were;
• Under 12 boys
• Under 13 boys
• Under 12 girls
• Under 14 girls
• Under 16 girls
Our region (MFN) again, for the 2nd year running took out the Under 14 and Under 16 girls at the State Titles. With the other teams being more than competitive. No doubt you would all agree this is a great achievement.
I would like to thank the Northern Tigers Committee members that sacrificed many hours in making this tournament a great success on and off the field.

NORTHERN TIGERS ROAR TO 2010
SUPER LEAGUE CHAMPIONSHIP SUCCESS
Northern Tigers claimed their first ever Championship after comfortably defeating St George 4-0 in the Super League Grand Final at Lily Homes Stadium on Sunday.
New Central Coast Mariners National Youth League star Max Glanville stole the show with a man of the match performance scoring a hatrick in what set the scene for a scorching Tigers display.
Despite a nervy opening few minutes, it was always likely that the Tigers would win this one, looking a lot more in control of the ball throughout the match and dominating large passages of play while for St George, it seemed very early on that it just wasn’t going to be their day. In fact, the Saints probably saved one of their worst performances of the year for Grand Final Day.
As always, the Tigers fielded their first choice eleven while Andrew Heath came in for the suspended Saints captain, Simon Verrender. But it was the Tigers who led the way, Glanville showing signs of what was to come with his first shot of the game after just ten minutes. Two minutes later, and he was to make St George pay for some poor defending when he got the ball over the line in a scramble, the Saints not being able to clear.
By twenty minutes, Glanville had put Northern Tigers 2-0 up. A slide rule pass from Tom Spencer, across the Saints defence, fell perfectly for the gun youngster who smashed the ball into the goal for his second.
Even by this early stage, you sensed that the Tigers had it won already. Nothing seemed to go St George’s way, each loose ball falling the way of the Tigers, who certainly looked the sharper. St George’s first decent chance didn’t come until just after the half hour mark but Denis Cutura could not quite connect when in the box. Peter Crevani crossed sublimely not long after but his firm ball evaded all, including the onrushing Christian Cevenini.
Tigers keeper Stuart Page didn’t have a lot to do to this point but he was at his best when he got down low to his right, just touching away David Smith’s long range strike. It was the closest the Saints got to a goal during a tough first half.
Things didn’t auger well for St George either when Andrew Heath earned a red card as the first half ticked down, an of the ball incident with Sungyun Park resulting in an early departure. Two goals down and one player down would certainly test St George’s mettle. The loss of an injured Juan Chavez after forty minutes also meant a reshuffled line-up.
But to their credit, St George did improve, at least in the early stages of the second half. They almost pulled one back when a Cevenini header was tipped onto the bar by Page. Ivo de Jesus worked hard as he looked to create the openings but again, it was to be the Tigers who were to gain the upper hand. Paul Davies broke through down the right and should have done better than blasting well over but this warning signal wasn’t heeded.
And so it was Glanville again.
After turning David Smith, Glanville found the way to goal one more time, slotting away past Daniel Nash for his hat trick, just after an hour had passed.
By this time, the possibility was there that things could get nasty for St George, the way the Tigers were playing. Glanville left the field, perhaps to the relief of the Saints, to be replaced by the experienced Luke Tomich.
But while Glanville was gone, Tomich just took his place. After just five minutes or so of coming on, he beat Nash to the ball well outside the area, and then had the simplest of tasks in slipping the ball into an empty net to make it 4-0. He should have made it five too but in a similar chance, was this time wide of the post. A well taken half volley from a corner, also, was just cleared as the Tigers turned the screws.
In the end, the score-line remained at 4-0, coincidentally the same result as St George’s last Grand Final appearance. But on that occasion, they had beaten APIA-Leichhardt 4-0 in the 1987 NSL Grand Final, this time they were on the receiving end.
It was a deserving result for Northern Tigers, their first championship in their short history.
“It is very, very satisfying,” stated Jason Eagar. “We were a little bit nervous for the first five minutes or so but then we started to play some really nice stuff”.
“It was very comfortable. We expected St George to be hard and physical but to be honest, it was not the best St George we have seen this year”.
“And I don’t think the send off made that much difference. We were still a bit worried, remembering our semi final of a few weeks ago when they also had a send off, and won. We talked about that at half time and made sure it didn’t affect the way we would play”.
