soxrow Posted March 17, 2013 Report Share Posted March 17, 2013 We have a good chance I reckon, our form in Brisbane is strong, and they aren't as tough as in previous years. Still a tough task, but we are SURELY due a win away! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Posted March 17, 2013 Report Share Posted March 17, 2013 Speaking to the players after the match last night they seemed down and rightly so. Still, it was good to see they appeared to care. All I am hoping for now that our finals chances are shot (JA) is that we give a good account of ourselves as we look to next season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

belaguttman Posted March 17, 2013 Report Share Posted March 17, 2013 Hopefully JA tells them to stop worrying about the finals, rather, go out and have some fun playing football. The team looks joyless and freezes with anxiety. I don't think that we'll get another point this season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heart_fan10 Posted March 17, 2013 Report Share Posted March 17, 2013 must win this game to at least give something to the fans. Â could make for an entertaining last round if we win Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
belaguttman Posted March 17, 2013 Report Share Posted March 17, 2013 maybe we can actually play someone like Cameron Edwards with the view to signing him next season? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benzema23 Posted March 17, 2013 Report Share Posted March 17, 2013 Hope we can get a result out of the last two games. I mean the fact that he haven't been able to get any results away is embarrassing and shows that JA is not good at preparing games, he could have played much more defensively away when he noticed that we were struggling. Van't Schip really knew how to set up the team to get results, even though he had a weaker squad at his disposal IMO (a Though he had Dugandzic who was sorely missed). He always had creative solutions, playing false 9-formation, 3-4-3 etc, etc. Aloisi, due to his lack of experience and qualifications, lacked confidence to try new things. I mean why not play an extremely defensive formation away for example with 3 defensive midfielders, Gerhardt, Germano and Thompson? Just to grind out results. Van't Schip played a much more destructive style at times when necessary. Do I want us to play an attractive style of football? Of course. But would I have wanted to see my team in the finals if it meant being a bit more realistic for the away games? Yes. Aloisi has made a lot of mistakes this season (questionable team selections, substitutions, drawing Phoenix's second team at home, etc.), but I think he should get another half season to show that he has learned from his mistakes. If the problems persist, get an experienced coach in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeartFc Posted March 17, 2013 Report Share Posted March 17, 2013 Won't watch the game. Pointless. Hope we finish last so these muppets wake and realize they fucked up by appointing Aloisi. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dazman Posted March 17, 2013 Report Share Posted March 17, 2013 in an ironic way, this game is kind of a win-win. if we win, we win. if we lose the club's (i hope) more likely to take action and fix the multitude of frustrating issues with this team 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red or Dead Posted March 17, 2013 Report Share Posted March 17, 2013 I think we can win. But I say that a lot and we all know what ends up happening We CAN win, but we won't win!  I've run out of optimism...I can't get excited at away matches anymore. Ever since Perth, Nix, WSW, Nix, etc. I have no confidence whatsoever.  The best thing about this game is that Colosimo is out so Vranks is back in. Hopefully JA plays: Redmayne Walker, Vrankovic, Gerhardt, Mitchinson Germano, Fred, Kalmar Garcia, Tadic, Williams  Bench: Bolton, Meeuwis, Babalj, Golgol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

United Posted March 17, 2013 Report Share Posted March 17, 2013 Never say never, ill watch both our last two games and remain optimistic, mainly due to the nautre of the league, and the ludicrous top 6 finals format, rather than the teams ability....

biancorosso7 Posted March 18, 2013 Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 Apparently Gerhardt will be out on international duty. Will be Coyne and Vrankovic in defence. Yay. Â This is huge news. Coyne as a CB? Has he played there before? Â Alternative would be a massive risk, leave Coyne out and have 3 at the back with Walker-Vankovic-Mitchinson. Won't happen, but would surprise Brisbane.

Dylan Posted March 18, 2013 Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 Surely Matt thompson would play CB and marcel would start alongside germano  I like this.  Although JA says we can still make it, I think thats just Spin he has to say because of the nature of professional sport these days. So hopefully he throws caution in the wind and does alot of experimentation in prep for next season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy Posted March 18, 2013 Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 Start a NYL centre back and see how he goes. Might find another Good or Hamil. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony999 Posted March 18, 2013 Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 JA will start experimenting. I mean that's what good managers do; experiment towards the end of the season, not at preseason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrAiDaN66 Posted March 18, 2013 Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 I still think we should really have a go at getting 6 points from the last two games. Even if the season is technically over, still go for it I wouldn't be putting any "unknown" players in but would consider mitchinson walker and vrankovic at the back. Matt Thompson at CB Germano and meeuvis (spelling?) DM I would experiment with the team rather than with new players by bringing them in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kontra.11 Posted March 18, 2013 Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 Abbott from the youth team should be given a go at centre back. I think he has potential. Rather him that Coyne. And please start Meeuwis and Germano together with Garcia as a number 10. Gol Gol should retain his place and he gives us something upfront that others don't which is unpredictability, set pieces and an ability to beat a defender 1 on 1. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heart_fan10 Posted March 18, 2013 Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 win this match and we've got a decent chance of making finals, as results should go our way. Â graham arnold said he's going to rest players in these last 2 a-league matches so we've got a very good chance against them in the last match.

And please start Meeuwis and Germano together with Garcia as a number 10. Gol Gol should retain his place and he gives us something upfront that others don't which is unpredictability, set pieces and an ability to beat a defender 1 on 1. Golgol is certainly unpredictable. Much talent, but goodness me - any slower walking to take a corner and he would have gone to sleep. And we actually needed to score so I don't understand the wasting of time like that. If goalkeepers get yellows for taking too long to take a goalkick then maybe the same should apply for corners.  And Meeuwis - well, who can understand what's happened there? Why bring him all the way from Holland and then not play him? Even if he isn't acclimatised to the heat he could have played in Dunedin and against WSW. Instead he plays 45 against Adelaide and then doesn't even get off the bench against WSW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
