MHFCRC Posted October 7, 2015 Report Share Posted October 7, 2015 We seem to not mind travelling to Sydney. Beat them last year with a team of:VelaphiClisby-Kisnorbo-Jaliens-RetreGermano-Mooy-PartaaluDugandzic-Koren-Brown (scored the winner) surely we we still field a team stronger than that.. still a chance for at least a draw.

jw1739 Posted October 7, 2015 Report Share Posted October 7, 2015 It is looking more difficult almost by the minute, but I'd rate Richardson as highly as Chapman. IMO he's a cooler head than Chapman as well. If Chapman doesn't make it, I would think the back line will be:Retre, Richardson, Kisnorbo and Clisby/Zullo.And I reckon with a thinner back line than we would have hoped for JvS will go with experience and have Sorensen in goal.

Tommykins Posted October 8, 2015 Report Share Posted October 8, 2015 Richardson needs to play competitive football to be judged properly, however as a 4th choice centre half, he's certainly a decent choice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loriente Posted October 8, 2015 Report Share Posted October 8, 2015 novillo 4-5 ffs bring in an injury replacement Has he torn it off the bone or something? Wtf is going on.

bt50 Posted October 8, 2015 Report Share Posted October 8, 2015 (edited) the two players that we are going to omit .. hope not one of them is Mooy.. Think he'll play a part, even if its just as sub. Espindola and one of Chapman/Richardson to miss out depending on whether Chapman gets up or not.Was under the impression that Williams and Franjic, and possibly even Gameiro will be available for next week.

jw1739 Posted October 8, 2015 Report Share Posted October 8, 2015 Look at that injury list already and we haven't even played a game yet ffs.I don't take much notice of these squads TBH. I've seen people named as pretty much certainties who didn't even make the trip, and people be named as injured but take the field.I don't know really why FFA bothers to announce them. All that really counts is the team sheet handed to the match officials after the warm-up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agoalie Posted October 8, 2015 Report Share Posted October 8, 2015 When I went training yesterday, only player training away from everyone was novillo. He seemed to be moving ok as well. Everyone was else was playing a match simulation on a half pitch. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shahanga Posted October 8, 2015 Report Share Posted October 8, 2015 It's been a long wait, but happy to see the season upon us.I do believe we are capable of getting something from this game. We managed a draw last season and I think we are a lot stronger this one.I am not sure how much Sydney have strengthened. Maybe some of you more informed guys could let me know. However, I do believe there are very good reasons to feel optimistic about this season. Sydney (aka Scum FC, the self styled "Manchester United of Australia") have had a fair bit of turn over including the departure of top scoring Marquee Mark Janko. On paper their recruitment looks alright but probably their strongest point is their gaffer Arnold, who could seemingly almost get a title challenging team from players recruited solely from this forum.having said that he has started seasons slowly in the past.

Torn Asunder Posted October 9, 2015 Report Share Posted October 9, 2015 Doubt Melling will play. Saw him last night at the Northcote Food Truck Park, enjoying a cold frothy beverage. Garrucio was with him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
