SUPA IGA NPL NSW Men’s 2 The Teenage Revolution Round 15
The wettest month of June for a decade has again had an impact on the competition with only one of the six fixtures being played and that has meant that the various tables have a slightly distorted look to them.
Supa IGA National Premier League NSW Men’s 2 – Overview
In the only fixture completed in this division over the weekend Sydney University collected nine points from their clash with Bankstown City Lions and that was a considerable drop from the sixteen points that Uni had taken from the first round fixture.
Every other fixture was washed out and that means that the Mt Druitt Town Rangers v St George, Spirit FC v Macarthur Rams, Fraser Park v Bankstown Berries, Parramatta FC v Mounties Wanderers and the Hills Brumbies v Northern Tigers fixture will need to be rescheduled and they should all be completed in the next few weeks.

At this stage of the competition only Sydney University and Bankstown City have completed the scheduled number of matches and that means that the catch-up matches, when they are played, will all have some sort of impact on the appearance of this and all the other tables.
As you will see, it will not take much in the way of good results or a couple of good days to cause a dramatic change to the table, especially when you consider that there are twelve points on offer from each and every fixture.
The same is true for each of the age grade tables where a bad result or two can have very serious consequences in term of the position on the ladder.
Competition frontrunners Sydney University took a total of ten points from their first round clash with eleventh placed Bankstown City Lions but on this occasion the clubs split the points at five apiece. This has given Uni a lead of six points at the top of the table and left the Lions in eleventh position.
That leaves Mt Druitt Town Rangers in second spot and they are only six points behind the leaders while Spirit FC are twenty-eight points further adrift in third position.
Hills Brumbies have the same number of points as Spirit but they are placed fourth on goal difference and they are twelve points ahead of fifth placed Bankstown Berries.
Then St George are only two points behind the Brumbies with the seventh placed Mounties Wanderers just one point further back while Fraser Park who have a total of ten matches in hand, are only two points behind the Wanderers.
Northern Tigers in ninth position and they are five points behind the Mounties and they are eleven points ahead of Macarthur Rams who have an advantage of five points over Bankstown City.
