It is a bugger of a place to get to. Close to the rail line, but about halfway between the current Tarneit and Wyndham Vale stations. Will even be a bugger to drive as the road network round there is still a mess. I'm not holding my breath for the new station, though if and when it's built, it will become very accessible.

Largely relevant to the violent gargoyles that follow Victory. They should ban most of them.

Absolutely brilliant if true.

Agreed. I do like him. Bit of a supersub and changes the game when he comes on.

I watched on TV and I would struggle to disagree with much of that. We were much sharper all over the pitch. None of the rusty doziness from the Oakleigh game. Us much better or Wellington worse? I'd give us a lot of credit TBH. The defence looked way sounder and the midfield is beginning to click. McLaren was simply a different player.

No obvious duds in our signings so far. Very good business done so far given just how much talent has left us.

Looking like a good squad. Some central defensive reinforcement and we look set.

Lovely pass from Antonis to make the second goal. From what we've seen so far he's been a really canny pick up.

Caught a heavy tackle in the first half. Looked like he'd been hurt at the time.

Looking much more assured and a lot less rusty than the previous round.

I want to see football matches. Is that a good enough answer? Definitely not rugby or fishing. Golf would be bad.

Pretty much all my crowd from City matches followed the WWC, and one made both the AusEng semi and the final. Was a constant source of conversation in my office and several colleagues also attending matches. I got tickets for one and would have gone to more if I could have got more tickets. And I'm always selling the idea of going to watch City to friends and colleagues. WWC is just one more point of contact.

At least I know where it is now... Nice little ground. Needs more food options and people who can find their keys though...

OK. I only saw the one. Behind one goal. Didn't see the others so can't offer comment. The one behind the goal that I saw didn't unduly trouble me.

Was there. Was only a smokie, and on a grass bank in the open air it didn't feel remotely dangerous. Not a fan of them, but not bothered at all in this case.

That would be my guess. We weren't at our strongest in that position last year, compared to the rest of the squad.

That has the potential to be a bloody strong squad...

Yep, think so. Me and a mate.

And confirmed Berenguer has been released.

Aziz Behich confirmed this morning.

Likely they'll just send us something virtual if the physical stuff isn't ready...

Lovely to see one of our own return towards the end of a great career. This does feel like a bit of genuine heritage.

Still think we're a wee bit light given Nuno not where he was, and Good potentially being offered a last pay day in India. Probably the weakest area last season even with Bos. Having said all that, I reckon compared to other clubs, we've arrived at this stage of preseason looking relatively strong. Possibly not where we were last season, but suspect others have gone backwards at least as far.
