Sort of, but not really. If AU and ACK both lose their next game MC is still on top. All teams have played at least 11 games. This is what the table would have looked after round 11 had the games been played in a typically order. POS CLUB MP W D L GF GA GD PTS PPG FORM 1 Adelaide United 11...

Yeah the table positions are not really an accurate representation at the moment. In the latest round thread, I've included the PPG (point per game) column. https://greenandgoldfc.com/threads/a-league-mens-24-25-round-14-part-1.340/ This helps us compare teams a little better. For example: Both...

Another midweek split round. Round 15 on the weekend and then part 2 of Round 14 midweek next week.

Short answer is byes. It should even out quite a bit by Feb as there a bunch of midweek games in Jan which should even things out a bit. However, a comp with a bye round is always going to have an uneven table. I might add an avg-points-per-game column in the next thread as that can be a good...

The WU games are a bit of a novelty though. Same when MV played games down there. Getting people week in week out for a full regular season is a different kettle of fish. That being said, I reckon a Hobart club would work but not a blanket Tasmania united club. The main cities are way too far...

To be fair, the entire state is a ghost town. Gold Coast has a higher population (by a good 100k) than the entire state of Tasmania.

Yep, Victory was seeking approval to develop their academy at Footscray Park but it ultimately got rejected due to the NIMBYs and dog walkers. Alot of the anit-development campaign was pushed heavily by AFL friendly media outlets.

WSW is down to two factors. Disgruntled fans and poor on-field performance. Excluding the current season, if you look at total competition points earned over the course of their history they are pretty average/poor. From memory they have only got 10-20 more points than the Roar over the same...

Yep, when you look at Adelaide, they play at a 15k venue and usually have it about 65-70% full. If they were playing at a 30k stadium, there is no way they would be getting those kind of consistent numbers as the atmosphere just wouldn't be the same.

I don't think the training ground matters all that much. They play at AAMI, so as far as the fans (and potential fans) are concerned, they are based at AAMI and always have been.

It's a bit of an interesting situation. Heart branding was bad (colours were ok though). City branding is worse due to CFG baggage and the light blue is the worst possible colour choice for a club based in Victoria. Heart on field results were rubbish whereas City results have been very good...

If the biggest crowd of the round is poor, the other games must have absolutely atrocious crowds. Most clubs have been around for 20 years now. More than enough time to be getting above 10k to a game every week. Yeah Melbourne and Sydney are huge population centres but all other clubs are in...

Only in the A-League will people look at the biggest crowd of the round and find negatives.
