haz Posted October 29, 2018 Report Share Posted October 29, 2018 Sydney have the FFA Cup final tomorrow night, which also means travelling to Adelaide. While we have a less interupted week, and the game at home. Their marquee de Jong might still be injured, but at the very most only come off the bench agaisnt us. ========================================== The odds are in our favour. But who knows if we will come out with the same slow intenstity as the CCM game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jw1739 Posted October 29, 2018 Report Share Posted October 29, 2018 In 24 league matches we've beaten them only 6 times, never beaten them more than once in a season, and have taken only one point from them in the past two seasons. Our records against both Sydney teams are woeful. Goalscoring looks to be our problem at the moment. 1-1 draw. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mus-28 Posted October 29, 2018 Report Share Posted October 29, 2018 Hopefully see Jamo and Vidosic start in place of Big Boy Haz and Wales. Also despite Bacchus being quite good I'd still prefer Griffiths beside Brattan to add some extra steel in the middle and give Brattan a bit more freedom to push higher up the park.

Popular Post Missing_Moy Posted October 29, 2018 Popular Post Report Share Posted October 29, 2018 This is how I’d line up LaRocca out IMO cost us the first goal. Wales to come on as a Sub as Dario has more of a chance of scoring than Wales! Jamo to bomb forward from the left which will help Berenguer!! 3-1 Win Bruno to score 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Originalmeme Posted October 30, 2018 Report Share Posted October 30, 2018 yep, jamo has to be in! Wondering when good is going to get given a shot. Not likely with the form of delbo and bort. Going to be a huge game from the midfield and centerbacks. Le Fondre is looking the goods and sydneys midfield with ninko is probably the best in the league, at least the most consistent. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inchcolm Posted October 30, 2018 Report Share Posted October 30, 2018 (edited) I think he will give Wales 1 more opportunity to prove himself. He played him in the first 2 rounds even though Vidosic is our main goal scorer at the moment Edited October 30, 2018 by Inchcolm 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delbridge into CB, Jamieson to LB, Vidosic for Wales, and La Rocca dropped. Delbridge has been a gun at CB so far this season. He's just not an attacking LB. 11 hours ago, Missing_Moy said: This is how I’d line up LaRocca out IMO cost us the first goal.

Griffiths to come on at 75' for Brattan if we are winning. Wales to come on between 60'-80' to run at tired defenders. Caceras as backup incase Mcgree or Florian run out of puff. If we win this game, good chance we will be outright 1st. Edited October 30, 2018 by haz 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neio Posted October 30, 2018 Report Share Posted October 30, 2018 Sydney have gone full strength as expected for Cup final You would probably think brosque is a very good chance not to back up Friday night. I don't know about vanderlinden, but the rest I'd say will be fine to back up unless they cop an injury etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dylan Posted October 30, 2018 Report Share Posted October 30, 2018 Hopefully we put out our full strength XI. I know its a good thing to decide the XI by merit, but sometimes the flaw in that arises whereby you have games like last week. Although I fully acknowledge we really should have won that game. I know people are having a whinge about the boring style so far, but its round three, usually takes a few rounds for teams to get up and going.

HEARTinator Posted October 31, 2018 Report Share Posted October 31, 2018 The template for beating SFC has been set by Adelaide. In round 1 this season they played high tempo, trying to nullify Ninkovic by cutting off service from O'Neill and Brillante. It nearly worked. It worked last night but it required wonder goals from Goodwin. That's the point. Not only will we have to keep their midfield quiet and mug Ninkovic and Le Fondre, but we're going to have to score. You can bet that Bruno is going to get battered and he'll get very little sympathy from the ref or VAR. We've shown we can get goals from McGree, Vidosic and De Laet but our midfield are going to have to do battle with theirs and get on top. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just keep in mind that each family pass has 2 adult tickets and 2 children’s tickets, so make sure you don’t have any adult friends with child tickets. You could even go back and buy more - there’s no limit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whole promotion is a McDonalds initiative where if you buy a family meal at McDonalds the code is at the bottom of the reciept. Someone realised that the code is the same for everyone and hence anyone can just go and get the tickets that were supposed to only be for McDonalds customers.
