Agree. 36 would appear to be minimum, and even that may not prove enough. If we beat both City and Macarthur, but lose to WSW (which would be so Nix), we have a chance. Other combinations of two wins and a loss, less so. It's a bit of a prick that Melb City have the very last game - they will know what they need.
Even though I was relieved when the Mariners conceded a pretty unlucky goal in the 94th minute I couldn't help feeling sorry for them. They are a great bunch of battlers. Some nice scenes when their latest pint sized wunderkind Jesse Mantell scored in his first ever start for the club.
Difficult to really assess Auckland’s stocks as an argument could be made if the OFC pro league players were available a good portion of the reserves today may not have appeared today.
Minor premiership looks a pipe dream now but still on track for the top two place.
AL refs eh! Gives an early yellow to a MV player pulling back an attacker and then ignores this offense for the rest of the match. Ends up a scrappy match because the players know they can get away with it. AFC are now finding out what the Nix have often lived with. Having to play kids because of injuries. Fitzharris looks a good prospect. Not a big fan of playing youngsters in defense. Tough game for young Vucelich, but he will be a very good player. AFC have dropped lots of points at home this season. They seem better away
