Ngl, I'm scared that Western are going to turn it on.

Oh and that Riso will be rushed back then out indefinitely.

It'd be just our luck.

 

[JS96]

Seems the train strike is off with some reduced service here and there though. Would've really dampened the round. Hope lots turn out.

Love the icons and everything on the posts. Trust everyone will look it up themselves but are the latter two games accurately dated? They're in chronological order so I doubt there'll be confusion.

All fixed.

What’s the pitch at Allianz going to look like after this weekend? Hope there is no wet weather.

Sat/Sun 29/30's Keeper66.
Gonna be damn warm arvo's.

I've always disliked playing pre season games as it is late Jan onwards towards start of late March season.
Playing summer comp sure has its challenges.

I would imagine it will be nowhere near as bad as Lang park is, during the Rugby magic round. That is just not safe on day three.

 

[MelvinsonofAlvin]

I f Auckland don't concede this round might as well just give them the plate already.

 

[Vieri]

Aoyama and Hamzaoui starting

 

[West Adelaide Hellas]

I’m saying that’s the worst miss in a-league history

Rugby league. Yes I agree

 

[grazorblade]

Quality of this game surprisingly decent given who is involved

Leonard might be the biggest talent ive seen in the a league

 

[Keeper66]

I was of the understanding that undershorts that protrude below the level of the shorts leg are supposed to be the same colour as the shorts. The Western keeper with the black undershorts clearly visible below the yellow shorts is impacting on my OCD

Those refs here, what is the situation?

 

[grazorblade]

Thats a shame leonard sent off in injury time

Still a decent game

You are correct but sometimes the cheeky buggers hike them up before the match and you can't see them. Only after they've been playing a while they'll ride down and then you go hmmmm.

Ref is within his rights to ask him to change them or remove them. (And give him a YC if he was so inclined.)

Covered under Law 4. https://www.theifab.com/laws/latest/the-players-equipment/#colours

Aoyama and Hamzaoui starting

I f**king called it.

Canga also a big liability at the back.

Slowly getting on the Zdrilla Out bandwagon.

If your press can't get back to defend and the two at the back aren't up to calibre... Saying that Barr is okay... Then don't play a pressing style.

I'm going to go drink my sorrows.

I think the commentators said at the start of the game that he had to change kit for some reason.

 

[grazorblade]

will this be the start of another ccm run?
