Reckon this will be a tough one, it usually is against Perth. They're looking sharp on the attack but might be susceptible when defending.

If Castro plays then we could be in trouble. Castro, Fornaroli, Keogh, Kilkenny - creative accounting?

Keogh would be on peanuts these days, and Killa was signed from us after we effectively froze him out. 

Theyd be pretty safe i think.

IMO it's a bit rich to allow 30,000 people to mill around the tennis centre for a whole day and still screw down our attendances and not be allowed into the seats that we have paid for via our memberships.

Double standards all over the place for a bunch of tennis players and hangers-on that I've never heard of.

Are we to assume that Aidan O’Neill has been released?

Honestly who prepares and checks these things?

The same bloke who spells it Colacovski?

But, seriously @Shahanga weren't we given the explanation a couple of seasons ago? O'Neill isn't injured so he's not "unavailable," he wasn't in the previous matchday squad so he's not "out," so his absence means he's "not selected." And the same applies to Jordan BOS, Borges OLIVEIRO and (if he's still on our books) Idrus ABDULAHI.

Yes that’s true.

However it also means he’s managed to recover from an estimated 3 month back injury in a fortnight or so. Having recovered his fitness miraculously, he then failed to impress the coach, who didn’t select him.

Far more likely is that “they” forgot to list him as injured, which is a bit poor.

@Shahanga Oh, yes, mea culpa! I completely forgot the announcement that he would be out for three months! Which makes his omission piss poor indeed.

For me they can all bugger off home...

How come there are no decent conspiracy theories about the disappearance of Idrus from the planet? Alien abduction?

Jamieson will come back in. I’d be stunned if he didn’t. 

Atkinson is back and might play a part. In the press conference yesterday Kisnorbo said he sees Atkinson as a FB, so going forward we will probably see that Jamieson and Atkinson combination.

As for midfield it’ll probably be Gomulka again. Unless he starts Stokes down back and goes with Griffiths as the defensive midfielder.

If Atkinson is fit, then I can't possibly understand how Jamieson starts (unless it's as a central defender).

Garuccio and Atkinson are both far more complete players than Jamo - evidently, it's the captain's armband that's making selection/non-selection all the trickier.
