Rubbish! Australia are at home and with Indo look to have a solid goalkeeper and defenders, they don’t look so strong in other positions.

Nice attempt at a troll NoMates. Their forward line looks average (Struik isn’t even getting minutes off the bench for Brisbane Roar, and neither are those players that play for Oxford, the other forwards play for domestic teams). They look very strong in defense with Paes in goals and their...

The above post demonstrates the damned if you do, damned if you don’t situation regarding former NSL clubs/NPL clubs. If Tuckerman had written a negative article he would have copped it, he writes TWO positive articles articles and instead of that being celebrated an imaginary negative angle is...

Apparently the crowd at Preston v Smellas was more than 9,000. Impressive! Good to see NPL teams getting a good turnout and bodes well for the Championship later in the year.

Lion City could be awarded a 3-0 win. Hiroshima could probably quite easily still win 4-0 or more though and still go through. Would be nice to see Bailey Wright play against Sydney if they can both go through to the semis.

And they sold Piol, Drew, and Oli Jones!

Go Smellas!

Good luck to Smellas tonight!

I’m not Vince. What has he actually done to SMH/NPL fans? He didn’t support SMH joining the A-League? But SMH don’t want to join the A-League? Oh wait……….

It would be great to see Kikianis and Bennie in the squad, but I don’t think Popovic has ever played youth unless they were his own sons?

Very true!
