Looks like Caputo and Leckie for City & Thomas for WSW are gonna miss the start of the season with injuries.

Scott Neville with the Roar also in doubt to begin the season.

Happy A-Leagues Eve to everyone that celebrates.

Not just for the Nix, but time for all football fans across the A League to get pumped up and excited about their various teams. The media need to do their part too. Promoting the game as a good package of entertainment.
Proud to have attended the first 175 Consecutive "Home" Wellington Phoenix "A League" Games !!

The Ruf, The Ruf, The Ruf is on Fire!!

I'm so hyped for this season! This weekend will be epic. Looking forward to AFCs first game, and the Nix on Sunday is the icing on the cake. Also, I'll be able to watch the Nix live this season here in Chch. Cannot wait

A few surprises in this CCM starting XI

And so it begins... CCM with an 18 year old goalkeeper, where have I heard that before?

never a card, would hardly even say he's to blame

Red card downgraded to yellow after a VAR review, which is the right call imo. 0-0

Very much an early season A-Leagues match that, 0-0.

Gotta love the clip of Lucas Mauragis wiping out Kisnorbo and Kisnorbo pulling him up by the shirt like a 90s high school bully lmao

Victory had more than enough chances to have been up by a couple of goals before the red card. I feel that was a trend of theirs last season as well? Just not being able to score goals despite their chances

I would assume that Auckland is lining up like this:

Paulsen Sakai Hall Pijnaker De Vries 
Verstraete Gallegos 
Rogerson Brimmer Gillion

An own goal for AFCs first ever goal

HVDS with an oggie, AFC lead 1-0

Currently AFC's all time leading goalscorer without ever having played a game for them - hell of a stat!

Half a Pint
An own goal for AFCs first ever goal

Iirc, Heart's first goal was also an oggie

Not sure if Auckland is good going forward or the Roar's defence is terrible yet, 1-0

It's your typical early season game. A lot of poor ball control, misplaced passes and panicky clearances from the back. On balance AKL the better team though. 

Enjoying Gillion's quick footwork.

Decent first half for AFC, yet to figure out the final ball for the most part though.

Brisbane put a bit more pressure on later in the half but don't seem to be offering too much so far

Gillian has done well so far.

Brimmer is looking very sharp as well, maybe he can get back to his Johnny Warren Medal winning form. 1-0

Ah I see this is the match thread for AFC. Sorry! 

Enjoying Sakai, Rogerson, Paulsen and have been impressed by de Vries, though we haven’t seen him go forward much. 

Everything else feels a bit like it’s still in 2nd gear. Have to see how things go once the subs start to come on. 


19 Oct 04:59
Just love that AFC's first ever goal will always be an own goal!
Can't say ive been impressed with the port, maybe their noise isnt coming through the TV mics that well. On top of that the claim that AFC is the pride of NZ and the "our team, our club, our island" byline. Already can't stand them.

Looks like we are getting a 1hr lead in on Sky for the Nix game as well.

Auckland Pride, lulz. 1-0

Best chance of the game so far.
