He's actually been ok/lucky this season. I get what you are saying though, he definitely takes risks and I definitely wouldn't be surprised if he copped a red. In general MV have been pretty good when it comes to cards. Teague has the highest number of yellows with 3. Looking at the stats, these...

Yes, but it's a tough path. If they won all their remaining games, they would finish on 46 points. They have 8 games remaining, 6 of which are against teams directly above them. So they have the opportunity to take 18 points from those teams and close the gap. Not an impossible task, but...

I wouldn't be so sure about that. SFC have a lot of opportunity to make finals. They have 5 games against teams directly above them. Including the AFC games they are undefeated in the last 7. They have also scored 16 goals in the last 7. Clean sheets in the last 3. I'm predicting Adelaide drop...

I reckon the Jets are a bit of a dark horse to actually make finals. They are in good form at the moment. Their confidence should be high. 9 games left. 7 of those games are against teams above them, so plenty of opportunity to climb. Combine that with the fact that AU, MC, MV, MAC and SFC are...

It's a bit of a fascinating situation at the moment. Historically, the new generation has pretty much followed in the footsteps of the previous generation when it comes to watching sports. There has always been a new batch of young people filling the seats as the previous ones grow older...

Doubt it. They have 8 games left and play Roar twice and Glory once. They also play MV, MC and SFC. If they can take points from any of those, they should be able to finish pretty high on the table.

A-League (and future NST) are fully professional. Clubs need the capacity to pay professional wages. As it stands right now, only 8 clubs were able to meet NST requirements. So, with the current structure, short answer is $.

Coaches are only one aspect. They are not insignificant, but they are also only one piece of a much larger pie. What we need to do is look at these other nations and look at what they are doing, what we are not doing and what we can do. Obviously the Arab clubs are throwing money at it. They...

Looking at squad values in the ACL Elite (i recognise transfermarkt values have issues). It's pretty clear how far the rest of Asia has grown whereas Australia has stood still. The majority of clubs have squad values double that of CCM. Even if we look at Australia's current most valuable squad...

I reckon a Gold Coast (or any QLD team) would get much better crowds in a Winter comp. Summer does them no favours. High temps. High rainfall. Also competing with the summer lifestyle and summer activities. Also everyone seems to be in bed by 8pm. Compare that to Winter, when the weather is...
