Hope it's not too early to start talking about the Mariners second foray in this event but with the later finish to the A-League season we should be more competitive in terms of match preparedness this time around. Assuming it starts in early March, as it did this year, we will still be about a month away from the end of the regular rounds with still the play offs ahead. Again assumming we are in the play offs (of course we will be!!)
then there will be no excuse as we will be match fit and our opponents will be just starting their season. I guess it will be a case off managing the travelling whilst still staying competitive. Admittedly, difficult with a much smaller squad than our opponents.
