Weird because publicity has been next to zero.

My brother, who lives in Canberra, didn't even know it was on until I rang him this week.

Sales guy that works for me was in Canberra during the week and he said he saw paper ads for it and also a heap of Mariners stuff in a shop he went into promo'ing the game???

 

[FFC Mariner]

I'm pretty comfortable sticking with my <2k guesstimate.

Apparently the W League will add the extra numbers...............

2-1 to Adelaide.

 

[krusty]

I think it will be 4-1 to Mariners with matty getting one and super Nik to get 3 if he plays.
Around 9000 there.
God i love living in a fantasy world.

Central Coast Mariners v Adelaide United

McKellar Park, Canberra ACT (Belconnen Way, Hawker, Belconnen)
Local kick-off: 11.00am

 

[Wombat]

crowd fk all 4300 max
mariners 4-2 (i'll be drinking with an adelaide fan and we're gonna do shots for every goal so i'm hopeing for high scoring)
our midfield/defense will score all our goals
and there goals will be embarressing set play goals.

Reminds me of a flat mate that told me he would pull a cone everytime Boony smacked a four against England during an Ashes tour  in the old dart many years ago.
I laughed at the tosser and said i'd join him......until Boony weny on a spree.  I staggered to bed to dream in multi colour for the night (about 1am) only for Australia's new Bernaud to kick open my door every Boon 4 until about 4am when thankfully play was halted and Boon retired for the night on about 130no (with about 20 4's!!)
Now that was Aussie resilence and endurance at its finest!

 

[Wombat]

We were fairly shite last week so by rights we should be good this week.

I'm tipping 3.1 win if we turn up and a crowd of 6K as we always get half decent crowd down there.

 

[bjw]

2-0 win with Matty and Hutch to get the goals.

 

[Ben]

1 nil win to us, kwasnik to score from a set piece. crowd 5500

 

[BrisRecky]

crowd..3000-ish
US 2
them zip

I don't care who scores as long as we do..

 

[blakus]

FIRE UP FARKEN!!!! GAME DAY. WOOOOOOOOOT.
