Nup I'm backing us in.. no interuppted week for our front 3.. full week of training. We had our scare last week with brisbane nearly snatching a draw, so lads should we right on their game this week. Tough game City 3-1

👀

Wouldn't say massive alarm bells got the 3 points.. we had an extremely slow start to last season and we won it all.. Will take the lads a few weeks to really fire together.. our front 3 obviously had an interuppted preparation Also that disallowed goal for brisbane, if they always give the benefit of the doubt to the attacker apparently you'd almost say it shoulda ended 2-2 looked very tight. As a city supporter I'm glad it was ruled out but as a football supporter you'd like them paid wouldn't you?

Returning socceroo has to start. Wouldn't take into account someone who dominated a poor South melbourne outfit.. cola, Galloway or tilio to be the unlucky change

I'm gonna go outside the box. Obviously Paddy K has shown faith in young players in the past, so I'm gonna predict Raphael Borges Rodrigues to be this seasons Tilio/Cola. Maybe a few 30 min / 20 min spells halfway/ 2nd half of year for 3 goals and an assist.

Maybe leave the Mrs and kids at home for an away trip to Broady lads. Might have to get the kangas up

Decent hitout before the real thing next week!

Family friendly chant - You bagged us when we're poor, You bagged us when we we're rich, Now we've won the fkn league, You can suck our dicks Ohhhh

Actually devastating lol

Puciarelli to start surely

I agree. Way to much coverage.. he's gay cool lets play football.. people want it to be normal? Then why don't they act like its normal instead of a tell it all interview shared across the world.. yes he's brave to come out, yes hes the 2nd footballer to ever come out but if we want it to be normal then let's act like its normal ?

Yes they did. I think Leckie said the same.. just a bit weird the lads would miss a whole finals series to play Vietnam lol but wouldn't leave pre season training to play an important game like Japan away. I guess they are just over the lockdowns and quarantines like everyone else

Would have been interesting to see Nabbout on the wing instead of Karacic.. He could have bodied them easily. Even throw Leckie in their and macca off the bench in the second half... Would have been handy inclusions at 1-1..

As bad as it sounds, maybe a stint back in the a-league would be good for him? Get fit, get theconfidence back and then have another tilt at europe?? He has the ability

Hate to think the injury he got at Celtic has really fkd him up. The bloke looked like he coulda been anything that season he played with us then at the World cup at 18. Really sad
