Love the fact that we're back at AAMI in 3 days time.  Brisbane will play their typical game and sit back and wait for a quick counter which tbh will suit us considering it'll be our 3rd game within 7 days so they'll try make us play at them. Expecting to be quite a few changes to the starting lineup you'd think also.

a true test of support here

after last nights turnout, what will crowd numbers be like ???

IMO we'll be around that 10-11k mark, hopefully a little higher.

Looks like Cahill will probably miss with a knee, and Kilkenny is suspended but otherwise we should have pretty much a full list to choose from.

Think we will go with :

                               Bouzanis

Muscat         Chapman     Jakobsen     Colazo

                     Brattan         Malik

                                Caceres

Fitzgerald               Fornaroli         Brandan

Subs : Sorensen  Rose  Retre  Arzani  Kamau

Could potentially see Rose at LB and Colazo at LW if they want to give Tiprat a spell tho. If that happens Arzani misses for Tongyik.

With Kilkenny out and Malik under an injury cloud I'm a little concerned with how we will go without a physically demanding player in midfield over the 90.

Can't say I'm fully confident in Retre but fingers crossed we've got it covered.

Please God almighty let Bambi see  the cup presentation pregame - shit the c*#t right up

Not sure that the crowd will be anything special, because I don't think there's time for our FFA Cup win to sink right in yet. It's a tough week for any football club - three matches in 7 days - and we're going to have to follow it up by matches against Sydney and then Victory. JvS will have to shuffle the cards a bit to get the best out of the squad.
Brisbane's next match is not until the following Sunday, so this match could have been put back to Sunday once the FFA Cup Final date was set and the two clubs known. Would have made more sense really.
