LR9 Posted December 3, 2012 Report Share Posted December 3, 2012 (edited) Grella will play a half (and maybe a little more) and Golgol will make his 'long awaited debut'. This weeks squad: Bolton Walker - Gerhardt - Colosimo - Mitchinson Grella Fred - Thompson Williams - Tadic - Mebrahtu B: Redders, Vranks, Roffman, Dmac Edit: Fucked up date/time, mod please fix. 8 Dec, 5:30pm Edited December 3, 2012 by LR9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

belaguttman Posted December 3, 2012 Report Share Posted December 3, 2012 I'll be happy if we can even just score 1 goal. The cumulative score (incl practice game) since we won there last year is Perth Glory 12 - Melbourne Heart 0. Smeltz gets a regular brace against us except when he gets a hat trick. We're playing at AAMI Park as well, our worst performing ground. Perth play their regular physical game, we get intimidated off the ball and allow them to control the game. I heard Garruccio is out for 4-5 weeks. It would be great if Grella was playing, that will make some difference. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rocco Jones Posted December 3, 2012 Report Share Posted December 3, 2012 Any direct info about Grella being fit to play? Last I heard he was meant to make his debut in derby, hope it's sooner though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biancorosso7 Posted December 3, 2012 Report Share Posted December 3, 2012 With Garrucio out and Grella still not fit, surely there has to be 3 or 4 Youth names floating around: 1) E. Batsis 2) S. Mauk 3) N. Epifiano 4) Z. Walker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schrecky Posted December 3, 2012 Report Share Posted December 3, 2012 I think we need it to rain really really heavy like that game a season or 2 ago, and get the game postponed to a midweek fixture later on I want to watch our #1 team - thats what i signed up for, not our youth team. Who knows, maybe its no all doom and gloom (sorry still havent gotten over last weeks performance - not sure i can sit through that again) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
United Posted December 3, 2012 Report Share Posted December 3, 2012 (edited) Hoping to make it down to this one. For the sake of those that come along with me i hope it's a decent game, and we play like we potentially could. Could be a great day out to the city hopefully. Is KO 5 or 5:30? Cuz i could've sworn it's generally 5? Edited December 3, 2012 by United Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That could work, I'm all for Batsis getting a shot, but he played as a number 9 on the weekend. He would add some spark and enthusiasm in what has the potential to be a mega dull game v Perf. He'd be full of confidence atm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

biancorosso7 Posted December 4, 2012 Report Share Posted December 4, 2012 that involves a logical formation change and we all know that won't happen. The other option would be to drop a player/s who is/are not performing (i.e. Thompson, Hoffman, Fred) in a straight swap scenario. A fan can only dream ......

Che Posted December 4, 2012 Report Share Posted December 4, 2012 (edited) If golgol is being outperformed by Batsis/Epifano in NYL then surely JA is smart enough to promote them ahead of him like he did with Garuccio? Don't see any reason why we couldn't win this tbh, Perth have lost 3 out of 4 away games this season. Edited December 4, 2012 by Che Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy Posted December 4, 2012 Report Share Posted December 4, 2012 (edited) Looking back on previous years we'll need to earn on average about 2.3 points a game for the rest of the season to win the league. So it's time to get our ass into gear with a win here to put us back on our way to the premiers plate. Melbourne to win 4-3. This is factoring in the inevitable Smeltz hatrick.

toogood18 Posted December 4, 2012 Report Share Posted December 4, 2012 Yet again it would be nice to see Phil Petreski get given a chance, but that won't happen. I still believe though that we have a really good chance to win this game, Glory are without Thwaite and Jamieson, who have been quite solid for them this year. If we take our chances I believe we can get out of this game with a 1-0 win.

Move PG into midfield and sure it up, we have the cover at CB and need to get some consistency in the way we play. Yes, we have it at the moment, but we need to win and keep on winning. The rot has to stop! Even with our depleted squad, I believe we have the players to win on Saturday. Things need to be re-jiged however. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mulhollanddrive Posted December 5, 2012 Report Share Posted December 5, 2012 Last time we played Perth we complained it was too hot in 25 degrees. It's 37 on Saturday. I'm not a fan of Aloisi's whinging like a girl in his post game when we don't win. Get the team to play better, don't play PR games or give the club excuses.

MaliMate Posted December 6, 2012 Report Share Posted December 6, 2012 The boys were training today & when they played a game, they lined up with the same back 4 from the Sydney game (Mitchinson, Shime, Patty & Walker), with Hoffman, Kalmar, Fred, Williams & Thompson in the midfield & Jos up front. Guessing this will be our starting XI on Saturday. Germano looked good on the other team and I'm guessing he will be on the bench this week. I can see why Golgol hasn't played yet, don't think he is ready to play ATM. Poor game sense & his work-rate could be a lot higher. Although 1 on 1 against a defender he is brilliant, as shown by when he skinned Mitchinson with a brilliant step over today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
