Super Youth League Rounds 15 and 16

The one thing none of us can control is the weather and so it does no good to whinge about it. We are best to make the best of what we have with the knowledge that the problems will be sorted out in very short order.
This week the format is slightly different in that I have covered the results of the two days and then referred to the standings on the table.
Club Championship
Round 15
Spirit FC picked up ten points from their home matches against Schofields Scorpions and that was quite a change from the first round outcome when Spirit had claimed all the points.
Central Coast?s visit to West Sydney Berries added ten points to their tally and that was a marginal reduction on the eleven points the Coast had taken from the first round clash.
Blacktown Spartans bagged eight points from their trip to Dulwich Hill, reversing the first round result when the Spartans could only take five points from the day.
After they had grabbed ten points from their first round encounter with Northern Tigers, Fraser Park would have been disappointed to earn only three points this time while the Tigers must have been delighted with their twelve points share, especially since it was their best day of the season so far.
When Sydney University and Granville Rage split the points at seven apiece on Saturday, the outcome was a repeat of the first round when each club had gone home with seven points.
The first round meeting between Macarthur Rams and Mounties Wanderers had resulted in the clubs sharing the spoils at seven points each but this time the Mounties made off with eight points and that left the Rams with five points to show for the efforts.
Western NSW Panthers had the bye on Saturday
