The Wolves had it all to play for but the big question remained could they continue their red hot form over the past few weeks which saw them demolish Macarthur 7-0 and then a deserved 1-0 away win over Manly FC. The other question that remained was whether or not the week spell that the…

Whilst Blacktown Spartans picked up the easiest three points of the season when they beat Hills Brumbies courtesy of a forfeit, usually unheard of at this level.

Some quality match ups were on the cards with some of the league?s most talented teams and players doing battle.

He rates the first, and only, time he had to go ?under the knife? as a very low point because it was uncharted territory for the right sided centre-midfield man: ?I had to have an Arthroscope on a lateral ligament tear and to be honest it was frightening as I?d never had an injury like…

Paul Carter?s Rams outfit produced a tireless performance on a cold night in Sydney’s  west and it was Shannon Hankin?s opportunistic equaliser in first-half stoppage time that earned lowly Macarthur another precious point, after Ben Vidaic had opened the scoring for the visitors with a well-placed header on 33? minutes. Europe-bound Rams midfielder Michael Brown…

Apart from a Shane Lyons solo effort early on, it was pretty much one-way traffic from the visitors and when they did manage to find the target they found custodian Phillip Zabaks, arguably the best goalkeeper in the league this term, in Man-of-the-Match form and you could sense this was to be a night of…

Played at a frantic pace, under the watchful eyes of A-League coaches John Kosmina, Aurelio Vidmar and Steve O?Connor at Lambert Park neither side managed to gain the upper-hand with very few clear-cut chances of note.

The 2008 NSW Super League season is unravelling as a tightly-fought affair ahead of round 14 action this weekend.
