Pre-Season games 2017/18

[scottmac]

The left side was great against Blacktown as it was against Wellington. Both with him and Pain in it. I think that left edge will be a big boon for us this year. I'm not sure how many he has left in him though.

With Rose back I reckon Pain will score more.

 

[Wombat]

Yes he has looked good and Rowles has also looked good so LB should not be an issue.

Anyone heard more about the SFC game? This will be a great indicator of how we are traveling.

Should be this week. One if the players mentioned playing SFC next week when asked by the MC

It is Thursday, behind closed doors in Sydney- not 100% sure of kick off time but it is evening not day match. Sydney will be looking after the communications out of this so probably just a post match wrap rather than any ongoing tweets.

 

[scottmac]

Started at 6. Would have to be close to finishing. f**k SFC and their shit comms. We would have tweeted the shit out of this. Obviously a condition of a friendly with the bling c**ts

 

[NoDiggity]

0-0 final score. Great result against a team that have been scoring relentlessly.

More clean sheets. Keep that up during the season and points will keep flowing

 

[Tevor]

Yep done MV 2 nil and kept Bling scoreless, I hate getting excited by pre season games but recalling last year when we were done by the Nux in two games. Big contrast.

 

[Coastalraider]

So we have played 4 a-league sides this preseason, including both last seasons grand finalists, and we haven't conceded a goal.

These are fantastic signs.

 

[scottmac]

Just saw the facebook rundown of the game. Fairly even contest with chances at both ends. Clean sheet. Yeah boi.

 

[pjennings]

Forgetting the loss to Blacktown we have only conceded goals against City when we fielded what is likely only going to be 6 starters

1.Ben KENNEDY, 3.Josh ROSE, 5.Anthony GOLEC, 15.Alan BARO, 4.Jake MCGING, 6.Tom HIARIEJ, 16.Liam ROSE, 7.Andrew HOOLE, 12.Trent BUHAGIAR, 11. Connor PAIN, 17.Josh BINGHAM

I think you'll find this is going to be the starting 11 other than roux missing. Hoole subs on for DDS after 60 or so until he gains more fitness. Then it's between Hoole and Appiah.

I think paulo wanted to try appiah starting as this will be the team (bar storm) in round one, since Hoole will be missing this game. From the rundown on Facebook, appiah seemed very dangerous!

In the podcast Paul said the keeper named today was getting 90mins and going to be the keeper for Rnd 1.

Glover it is. Woohoo

 

[Big Al]

Full strength Sydney and MV shutouts are very good. SFC sound like they had legit chances but well they didn't score

 

[Capn Gus Bloodbeard]

Very glad to hear this. Of course, preseason is preseason. but winning preseason sure beats losing it.
And f*** me, if there's one thing we all need it's hope.
Sounds like the squad is coming together nicely. I'm liking these clean sheets. It's a far cry from 'concede as many goals as you like, just score more. Oh....you don't score more. Well.....f***'

 

[style_cafe]

He has played in quite a few. Was a starter for the win against Victory. I saw him in one of the previous games and he looks pretty sharp.

Thanks Capt.
That`s the first report I`ve seen about him since he came back.

 

[priorpeter]

Just give us the pre-season cup already
