I'm so fucking pumped for this one. It's a shame all the talk is centred around how poor the crowd will inevitably be when in reality, we've got two Victorian clubs who have been the best all season in the Grand Final for the first time.
Likewise, it's also baffling/trivialising how much publicity the A-League All-Stars vs Barcelona exhibition has received in direct contrast to the Grand Final, and from the official A-League accounts no less. You'd hope they bombard viewers with advertising that promotes the Grand Final, otherwise you'd have to question the FA's scheduling and priorities.

Ticket secured, front row dead centre baby!! 😁
I'm optimistic we'll get a full house for this one, Melbourne loves a derby and it loves a final.-

Anyone know how much tickets will be? Trying to convince a few mates to come
I'm hoping the worry of trying to fill AAMI Park means they'll be cheaper than they would have had Victory made it

Deserves the plaudits, he was terrific
-
Leckie and Tilio were absolute game-changers, whilst Good, Nuno and Glover did all they could to keep us in it.
Outstanding win that showed real grit under enormous pressure.

We're fucked if we don't lift second half

Nerves have already kicked in.

Callum Talbot released from Sydney. There has been rumors he has signed for us for a few weeks. Looking likely now
Kinda weird signing. Hopefully he's just LB/RB cover for Bos and Galloway next season as he's been bog average in the games I've watched.
Good age at least.

I couldn't watch the game but kept check of the highlights. So based off that there was only one team that was winning that game and it was us. So well done boys. Great job.
Yep, Adelaide were pretty toothless and Glover (thankfully) had very little to do. Our forwards could have been cleaner but overall, you'd take a 0-0 in Adelaide any day
-
Huge result and momentum fully with us. Terrific work lads!!

Well done to even up the contest and control the tempo after that horrible first 10 minutes.
-
Bloody nervous about this one.
Honestly, I could even tolerate a 1 goal loss tonight - just no blowouts please PK, at whatever cost.

Haven't commentators credited Hayden Fox with their defensive strength?
Aloisi/Foxe, they're one and the same 😂
Either way, they press so well and really nullified Victory's forwards. Only conceded to a freak hit

If after 2 legs it’s all square, does the good old away goal rule come into play before any ET or penalties?
If it does, it’ll be peak A-League if one of these teams progresses because they happen to score a goal at AAMI park the week it was their “away” game!! 😅
No away goals rule.
Forum hate aside, Aloisi deserves full credit for Western United's defensive structure. It's elite

I couldn't stomach a grand final against Victory, as monumental as it would be for the league. Not in the form they're in of late, nope

Having Florin back is huge but I am worried we'll get his pedestrian version coming off a bad injury.
Honestly, I'd only bring him off the bench for the first leg personally but Adelaide away is a massive test so I guess we can't afford to hold back.

I believe Sail has an aussie passport so I dont think he would count as a visa + his contract isn't up till 2023, Piscopo is someone I would love city to sign as he is a free agent in a couple months but where would he fit in the side?
Piscopo is flashy but he's such a one-way runner. I don't think he'd work well in our system.

we are so fucked lmao

Yeah, I 100% wanna face Central Coast - especially as we have to play an away fixture and I'm not keen on Adelaide at all.
As for that Western v Nix game, that Young save was the best I've ever seen in the A-League. Hopefully he and Western can perform a miracle and topple Victory in the semi.

So does this mean that Victory will need to face Western United if they beat Wellington (assuming City win their final)? If so then perhaps WU could eliminate Victory thus improving our chances of winning the GF whilst still guaranteeing an all Victorian GF.
It does, yes.
Central Coast and Adelaide away are both tough assignments though.

Got to remember he was MOTM in our first grand final against Sydney.
He's had a crappy error-riddled season but the talent's there, and he's been decent of late. I'm backing him in
