[MWSL Selects] 2013 / 2014 Predictions

[soccerboss]

Three teams were promoted into selects; Westside Rovers, Dasmesh United and NCUSC Exterme.....how will these teams fair?

Selects B
Westside Rovers
Dasmesh United
NCUSC Exterme
Van City A
North Coquitlam Elite
Richmond
NSGSC Hearts
BGSCC Tigers

NCUSC Extreme & Dasmesh should fair well, don't know that either is capable of finishing top over both the Tigers and Elite but should be competitive. Dasmesh, in particular, have been working toward this level for a few seasons so should be well-prepared.

The Rovers are a bit of a guesser's paradise; could be either very competitive, or very not.

My sense for all three of the newly-promoted sides is that all three scored a great deal last season in D1 while were tight defensively. Given that goals are far harder to come by in Selects, their ability to be again solid defensively and manufacture goals from all over the pitch will determine more than anything how they fare.

Seems as though Dashmesh and NCUSC isn't doing all that well. Seems to b a 2 horse race between abby and van city. Only one gets promoted I think

Right you are Lovers, only one promotion spot available. With a match in hand, Abbotsford looks to be the favourite but if they stumble in the next two league matches then it's all to play for.

Dasmesh and NCUSC are struggling overall, no doubt, though Dasmesh lost to Abby 2-1 last weekend which shows that they're not far off. Key is to be more consistent, but they need a result or two otherwise they're likely going back down after the season. Looks like Richmond is a lock for relegation.

Richmond is playing better of late (they've added some college players to their roster), NCUSC is doing well, and Dasmesh has been struggling (they lost 4 starters due to injuries in first 2 games, and only 1 has returned) though they have been playing better of late also.

Abbotsford will take the group, Van City really not that strong but have been avoiding any defeats thus far in league play!

Yeah Richmond and Dasmesh have been looking better last couple games and will be battling BGSCC for the two relegation spots.

NCUSC/Westside/NSGSC to far ahead with only 3/4 league games left

Van City has been bit lucky but have come though with some wins to make it a battle with Abbotsford.

Abby has only let in 3 goals this year which seems to be how they are winning their games. Good Defence/Keeper.

Abby vs NSGSC hearts...two select b teams make it to the final. Congrats to both teams. Abby probably favorites considering their record in league play.

Shocking to see TSS lose to Hearts. TSS womens team is struggling. Used to be prem now borderline select team.
