Monday curtain-raiser - Victory v Jets

8pm on SS1 at AAMI Park.
 
Melbourne unbeaten in their last five; the Jets were unbeaten in 7 before losing 4-0 to the Phoenix last Saturday.
 
Newcastle actually have a really good record against MV - they've won 8 and draw 4 of their 16 previous matches.  In fact, no other team has as good a record against MV than the Jets.
 
Victory have made five changes to the side that beat Perth 2-0 last Saturday - Broxham, Celeski, Pondeljak, Vargas and Dugandzic in for Sukha, Ferreira, Brebner (suspended), Kemp and Thompson.
 
Five changes for the Jets too; Kennedy back in goal (Nash's injury near the end of last Saturday's loss to the Phoenix rules him out) as well as Milicevic, Wehrman, Zadkovich and Wheelhouse with Regan, Pepper, Misura and Fiorentini all dropping out.

Should be a good game.
Perhaps a draw might be OK for us.

Just seen the ref. Wonder how long he takes to ruin this game?

Funny you should that, said to my missus at kick off, I don't rate this keeper.
Very poor goalkeeping.

I can see Petkovic fumbling a save for the Jets to score, he seems to be having alot of trouble catching the ball

At least Breeze has been OK so far, but still 45m to go.

Yep, draw would be nice. Really don't want Newcastle to win, that's for sure.

MV going for the W, bringing Ricardinho and Diogo Ferreira on.

Bwanko would probably take the draw?

IMO if there was a winner, we'd probably have wanted the Tards to get up. I think the Tards are on the improve and could yet make a decent finals run.

As for the Jets, did our 4-0 win over them (despite them having a depleted team) burst their bubble?  So for them to lose again could set off a Perth-like capitulation..

Robbie, the Jets goal wasn't sloppy. In fact both of yours were sloppier!

A lot of those Melbourne players have huge heads and tiny bodies... Or is it just me?

I just love the anti Kruses. This bloke is class and it is a pity we don;t have him. Might even be in the top 4.

the hatred of ljubo at aami park is one of the funnier a-league experiences. he walks over to acknowledge the 10 or so jets fans in the away bay and half the south end section one bay over run down to abuse him.
as dismissive as he was, he gave a long unimpressed stare which egged everyone on.
ljubo, ljubo what's the score?

Ljubo's going to be furious when he realises he's not actually Jesus...nobody tell him, k?

Good on Ljubo for giving it to Muscat, he nearly sh*t himself. The scumbag.
Muscat is a blight on the game.
