Deluka Posted August 21, 2013 Report Share Posted August 21, 2013  Would anyone have more information about the event; September 29th vs Peninsula XI @ Frankston? or a link to a timetable of friendlies? http://www.footballaustralia.com.au/melbourneheart/news-display/Melbourne-Heart-FC-Cup/72694  The match is listed under "Details."  Scott Munn tweeted today that there will be four matches in September, details to follow.  Good to hear, I was beginning to feel a little concerned about the number of preseason matches. Brisbane have played about six, where we've played about three. It will be an intriguing game against the Roar to see where we sit. I'm particularly looking forward to the footage provided by http://paulytv.com.au/ of the Roar v. Heart game. It'll be nice to see a bit more footage than what mFootball provide us with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeartinHobart Posted August 21, 2013 Report Share Posted August 21, 2013 I presume that match against the Peninsula XI will be our last before round 1 considering is less than two weeks after that match. I personally would rather us playing stronger opposition that close to the season. Victory that same day play the wanderers down here a much better preparation for the derby IMO.

Every side gets/only is allowed 2 friendlies against A League opposition. Â Don't think that's quite true there Caddy. Â There are two "official" pre-season matches against A-League opposition. The one in Lismore is not one of those. Â Last pre-season the two "official" matches were against Adelaide and Perth, and in addition we played WSW in Lismore. Â People like to say that pre-season form doesn't count for much. I beg to differ. The only pre-season match against A-League opposition that we've ever won was that one against WSW, and we did that on penalties because (IIRC) it was for the Craig Foster Cup. The full-time score was 0-0. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jw1739 Posted August 24, 2013 Report Share Posted August 24, 2013  Away game, pencil In a loss Also didn't I read on here recently we've never won a preseason game against A-League opponents. Is that right?  That is correct except for the game against WSW in Lismore last year when it was 0-0 at full-time and the match was decided on penalties - which we won. IIRC it was decided on penalties because the teams were playing for the "Craig Foster Cup."  Otherwise we have lost or drawn all our pre-season matches against A-League opposition. Last year we lost both - to Adelaide and then Perth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingofhearts Posted August 24, 2013 Report Share Posted August 24, 2013 I'm confident we can get a win. We're taking a full squad up there, so no less than a draw is acceptable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexandro Posted August 24, 2013 Report Share Posted August 24, 2013 (edited) Seriously what is wrong with our club that we can't win a preseason game against A-League teams? I mean surely it points to something just like not winning away from Victoria did last year.  The fitness training seems the most likely candidate. That explains poor second half results as well.  I really hope we win a preseason game this year or I will lack confidence going into the comp proper. Edited August 24, 2013 by alexandro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other clubs have up to 12 matches against State league opposition. However, this may not be Heart's fault. From where I sit many of the senior Victorian clubs seem to have giant chips on their shoulders  - see, for example, their opposition to the National Premier League concept. From what I've read the other States are getting behind this concept and it will be starting next season. So maybe there's a reluctance to have anything to do with the Melbourne A-League clubs?  I think we're doing our best, and credit is due to Heart, WSW and now Brisbane for being prepared to play in Lismore, which probably does absolutely zero for membership numbers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

schrecky Posted August 24, 2013 Report Share Posted August 24, 2013 New year, New players, new prizes.... You cant compare to any previous year Way to much negativity this early.  Pre-season is used for getting things right for the main season. The focus ain't on winning these games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
