LAST GAME VS ADELAIDE

[Marquee]

Very possible lineup if the resting plan goes ahead.

 

[marinermick]

he may be forced to play three at the back

wilko - stringers - boogs

 

[brett]

With Mick's development on Pedj, why wouldn't he bring D'Apuzzo into the squad in case we just need to make up the numbers?

Can Lewis play at the back at all?

if we play that lineup we're gonna get raped unless we have a pretty athletic pair screening in front...

 

[Marquee]

Is it too late to change the squad?

EDIT - Didn't Dapuzzo have keyhole surgery on his knee a few weeks ago?
Possibly the reason he isnt in the squad.

 

[Bear]

As seen by Sydney swapping keepers on the bench 5 minutes before kick off at their last game, no its not to late

Lawrie knows what he is doing.......... i hope..........

 

[Marinerchick]

dapuzzo is still battling a knee injury
should be back next week

Matthew f**king Breeze
Thinks he's a ref
But we all really know
That he is blind, stupid and deaf.

Used to be a police prosecutor
But we all really know
He can't turn on a f**king computer.

This would only happen if Melbourne do the business tonight......tbh those 3 at the back isn't too bad but Dodd would have a great time on the wing, as would Cassio!

Slowest back three in A League History

Agree. Regardless of middle two or middle three, it's more about the flanks when it comes to playing Adelaide. If we had Porter/Ossie on the right and Heff/D'Apuzzo for the left, I'd be calling for a back three anyway because it gives our wide backs cover in defence and the freedom to attack more.

We have no one to play left wingback in this game though.

 

[FFC Mariner]

Owens?

(I'm sorry, the heat has got to me. I am imagining things)

 

[cruiser]

Dead rubber for us. Minor premiership and AFC spot for Adelaide.

We have got no chance of winning. I dont feel half as sorry now that I'm going away this weekend.

I agree, we should take bribes to try and at least get a positive out of the game.

Five nil, to the Adelaide......

4-0 to Adelaide at the TAB is paying $41, 5-0 to Adelaide is paying $51.

Get in.

Not a smart bet. If they get to 2-0, they'll sit on it. Wellington is the only team to keep us out this season. Adelaide have only scored about 5 goals away. Get off.

I'm just being a smartarse 'cause we're sending the kids out to get slaughtered.  If they do win by either of those scores though, you owe me whatever money I might have won.  Or a drink.  Whatever suits.

If that's the score we're all gonna need a LOT of drinks. Hmmm, maybe you should put $5 on each and put it over the bar if it comes true.

In all seriousness, with nothing to play for I can see the kids and fringe guys giving it a better go than the same old 1st teamers. Our guys in card trouble in particular would have no motivation to go hard.

I am sick of this negativity.

We will win 2-1. Crowd, 10156.

Go ahead and bet against us. Just bring it.

Sledge to fire up the game:

To Michael Valkanis, "Does Jimmy Nail actually realise he has a love child who is as ugly as you".

Actually mate, we could upset the apple cart and win it. Nothing is impossible in football.
