I had this problem as well, I sat on bottom level reserved seat (my old man supports the other team and this was his only derby he could get to so we decided to sit in a neutral area) Anyway when we scored me and about the other 10 heart supporters near jumped up We got told very quickly to sit the fuck down So I gave them a bit of "SUUUUUPER SUPER DAVE" which they thoughrly didn't enjoy

If this is the case then why has he said on radio to expect 2 new signings? I think one was wheelhouse but where is the other

I thought I would wait till after the victory game to see how it sounded to pass judgement And to be honest I'm not a massive fan of the crowd yelling the last name, apart from when they said Bru I couldn't tell what they were saying. Might be worth a try but there needs to be an improvement in the scoreboard when teams getting read out IMO Here's what I think - we read out opposition like we always have (number 3 Adama Traore, and his picture comes up) - after all them have been read out, you put up their full team in formation position - now for us, however the name gets read out (either by announcer or by y-side) Number 4 Simon Colosimo - up on the scoreboard is some game vision of the player doing something, then it freezes and COLOSIMO comes up on the screen And so on - at the end again you put the whole team up in position formation With the way it is now, we have no real difference to the opposition

Only if he puts on a funny Australian accent in his first press confrence

Interesting to see what JA does Does he keep Babalj playing as that number 10 in behind the striker who I assume would be Merbrahtu or does he shuffle Garcia to the middle. Merbrahtu to the right and Babalj up front

agreed about williams for the most part, but seriously didn't you see gol gol's free kick? he's also the only one to score directly from a free kick this season. a fuck load better than others who blast it 10 metres over the goal or straight into the wall. sat in GA level 3 with me old man and my mate, he seemed bemused for the first 20 mins or so but was enjoying those giving it to large to archie. hopefully he'll be back. self enforced ban of getting drunk was a shame, could've done with it. went to cherry afterward, full of shit cunts so went home to bed. I think you have misread my free kicks comment While GolGol is on, Williams can't take free kicks or corners I want GolGol taking them

D-Mac hasn't played since Adelaide game. He also is injured Groin IIRC

Tadic has a broken toe Didn't get taken off for diving

The yarraaide is much much better than them Was it just me or did the sing the same song all night. I was fucking over that we are Melbourne, the boys in blue shit On to the game, well the effort was there but they are a very polished unit Redmayne was superb Walker kept Rojas in reasonable check, Mitchinson was killed by Thompson The midfield didn't hold onto the ball well enough, after their first goal we gave the ball up the next 5 possessions Now I might cop a bit for this but I thought Williams was poor, he is up against a 17 yr old first gamer and it took till the 88th minute for him to get around him down the sideline. Also while GolGol is on he can't take corners or free kicks Now onto etihad that is the worst place to watch football, they can move the bottom deck seats in so why don't they? And also was it just me or could no body really see the scoreboard, the vision was blurry

It's not Carney, clubs made enquiries about Carney and he wants to have one last crack in Europe

Ok so we just pick 1 off that quite sizeable list

I heard that as well on SEN today Its actually Munn saying that he is in Europe looking for a European based Australian I sent in a SMS asking about if they knew if they were looking at Valeri and they just spoke about Valeri being a good fit but didnt know if he was a chance

Because JA felt we did not even have a NYL player capable of playing the position, such were are injuries... You have inadvertanly backed up my point We didnt have a NYL player (Mitchinson) for the position last week, but now the same player is apparantly ready against the best performed player in comp Dont get me wrong Id like to see Mitchinson play, but i'm not sure if JA has the same ideas as us

I wouldnt have thought Hoffman was a viable option at LB either, but it was done EDIT - also I dont think Babalj will start

Im not trying to defend the bloke but the 1 game Gray played none of the goals were his fault IIRC Goal 1 - Hoffman decided he didnt want the ball anymore 5 metres outside box and Fenton ran into open goal Goal 2 - Marronne pushed Brockie fair and square in the back on a cross, penalty Goal 3 - Vrankovic went walk abouts and left Brockie alone in the box, and Bolton should have done better

I still dont think Mitchinson will start, JA didnt have the confidence in him last week, I cant see him having the confidence to have him this week against Rojas

I think he is worth taking for rest of year Hes natural position is the position we need and he shows a bit of aggression and he shows that he cares, something we lack at times Also it's another natural leader to the club We could do worse I think

Munn said that he is Europe to talk to 2 Australian players to play for Heart He said something should be announced in next 4-5 days

I thought he answered that - there will not be a formation change. He said moving to a 4-4-2 will not work. I reckon we're gonna see Golgol, Eli and probably Vrankovic (demoted after giving away the penalty) on the bench this week. If Kalmar starts again, I see Golgol replacing him and Eli replacing Thomo(?) and playing behind Tadic ;-) Who is playing CB then? It seems clear it won't be Gray

The club has said that Eli is no guarntee to play this week, he is sore - I would have thought he could pump out another 15-20 mins though GolGol is apparantly ok, but really we cant be sure as the club has still never really told us what the problem is

Ferriera is suspended

Just for anyone wondering, im assuming this is how Victory will line up Coe Foschini - Leijer - Ansell - Traore Milligan - Broxham Celeski Flores Rojas--------------------------Thompson So the need for a real strong CB combo isnt needed as needed as in other games, so im not against Gerhardt pushing up to DM to take Flores Garcia has to play as the AM, the role Fred usually plays to make Milligan accountable. Williams is one of the keys this week, in first derby he got around Foschini every time, hopefully he can do that again Also if GolGol is fit I think he needs to start, he played with Traore at GC, so hopefully he knows how to unlock it to get around him. and he will also make Traore work back defensively

I know he got cut from his Uzbekistan club (the ones that Adelaide played in ACL - Bunyikor or something like that) and I believe he is clubless

I could think of a lot worse options Might definitely be worth looking at

My team now Redmayne Walker - Gerhardt - Gray - Thompson Germano - Kalmar Garcia Merbrahtu - Tadic - Williams Bolton - Mitchinson - Babalj - Edwards Thompson played a bit a LB for Newcastle, here is his chance to regain a bit of supporter support against Rojas I would prefer a bit of expirience over Mitchinson who I think Rojas would run rings around (because of his lack of expirience, not his ability) Also people saying season over, were still 6th. If we can sneak a finals spot I can guarntee Victory or Adelaide wont want to play is in a knockout final
