I will be surprised if JVS plays 3-5-2. He will want to keep a solid shape so I expect to see a 4-2-1-3

Cahill will probably play behind Bruno with Kilkenny and Brattan as the two deepest midfielders.

I expect this line up

                                                                                         Sorenson

                                      Muscat                           Malik                           Jakobsen              Rose

                                                                       Kilkenny                       Brattan

                                                                                           Cahill

                                                    Kamau                           Bruno                    Brandan

 

Subs: Bouzanis, Retre, Chapman, Caceres, Fitzgerald

Just hope he doesn't play that high press from the onset and just has a bit of patience and balance to start with or we might concede on the counter early. WSW are set up quite good for this. But I agree a back 4 2 is solid. Hope you are right.

One of the plebs that seems in the know over on the wsw forum seems to think theyll line up like this :

Redmayne
Neville, NTS, Aspro, Hamill
Dimas, Pinatares
Jumpei, Nichols, Lustica
Bulut

Bench: Tyson, Borda, Cole, Nico, Santalab 

 

Not a very strong side but they are seriously advantaged over us having Poppa

Completely forgot about the fact that Redmayne will play. I'm sure he's looking forward to keeping at our end once again haha

I'm probably driving into the game tonight, just want to see where I could park for free close to AAMI?

Anyone got any streets they park in?

I usually park in Clarendon St and then walk through the G and over the train lines to AAMi. It's about a 15 minute walk - it's a shit walk after a loss. You'll probably be able to find something closer given it's a weeknight and nothing is on.

I reckon we'll lose this 4-1. Hope I'm wrong.

Just park in the Carepark or whatever it is on the corner of swan and punt near the train bridge. They have no legal right to fine you so you could get away without a ticket if you wish given there is no boom gate....:ph34r:

You know, the thing you use to get in... Sorry if this is a dumb question, am a first time member.

The membership cards haven't been sent out to anyone yet. Have to buy a ticket. You can use the code FFACUPCITY on ticketek to get half price off the ticket but will be charged an extra $5 for 'handling' or whatever. Or you have to get at the gate.

Yep, just checked. Sorry again if this is a dumb question, but will the same arrangements as tonight take place in the Derby?

Depends on where you want to sit. If you want the away active area, they go on sale this Friday and you will have to enter the last 12 digits of your membership barcode (which I believe they'll send tomorrow mayne) to buy. Or if you're just gonna sit in normal reserved seating around the ground, it's already on sale.

EDIT: this is for the away derby at Etihad if thatw hat you're asking.
