Come on CCM, Spank them Jets

Some resonable results for us, our next win could still throw us in to 5th

I have worked out, if we win all of our 3 remaining home games and get one draw away (sydney) and with results going roughly by the standings final standings would be:

5th Wellington Phoenix 39 points
6th Melbourne Victory 38 points
7th Newcastle Jets 37 points
8th Melbourne Heart     35 points

Need a decent home performance and a bit of luck :)

A Newcastle draw or loss tonight would do nicely.

If you get all that right== go buy a lotto.

Newcastle Jets 0 CCM 2

great result for us there

Even better considering the For and Against.

Awesome result for us!

Ups to CCM.

Looking good - Game in hand against MH who have a pretty hard several games like the Jets. MV is a bit ahead but their form has been horrid as of late so thats another positive :)

Why? They are 0 and we are minus.

better than +2

Form table: Last five games...

Take out the top two and Fury and thats a very even form table

good weekend for results

possibly helped 'ever-so-slightly' by the postponement

Gold Coast United (A)

We play two teams from the top 4. As do Victory and Jets. Heart play 3 teams from the top 4.

We have 3 home games. As do Victory.  Heart have 4 home games and Jets just 2.

We play the fury.  As do Victory.  Heart and Jets don't.

Let's delve for 12.

lady luck weekend has dealt us a kind league table

Hearts are not going to make it....they could easily lose 4 of their last five...GC, Victory, Roar, CCM

Results have gone our way majorly of late.  Very relieved about that.  We absolutely must win those games at home.

We have to aim for fourth.  Victory are catchable.  Horrible form they've been in.  They've got a hatful of players out.  Allsopp missed an open goal the other week.

You mean fifth.

Or sixth

If there's no Wehrman the Jets are done I think. Has anyone heard how long he is out for? I think if its any longer than one game the Jets season is over, they don't really look up to it without Ljubo, Wehrman or Abbas.

I think GCU is about to hit some real form which will be good for us this week.
Victory still don't look any good, hopefully it stays that way but you expect them to fire up for a derby.
The Heart have looked good but their schedule is probably to hard for them..
So we should end up in the top 6... Finger crossed.

I have a big stick that I will gladly poke all you optimists with in 5 weeks' time.

I do mean 5th.  Fail.  That's not to say 4th wouldn't go down an absolute treat.

Have confidence and our Phoenix will win at least 4 out of the reamaining 6 games!! Get your wallets ready for playoff games!

I've said this many times. When were are good we are great, when we are bad we are shocking.
I don't know why there are so many people who have given us no chance against Roar or Adelaide.
If we play to our potential for 90m, then there is no problem.

Not wishing to re-ignite the Dom Post chestnut (on this thread), but comments in above posts include "Good weekend for results", "Lady luck has dealt us a kind league table" & "results have gone our way".

And yes, we are probably better placed after the weekend than before.

So what is the (mini) headline in this morning's Dom Post?

"Melbourne teams open up gap on Phoenix".

Well, yes, but not really. It's enough to send one on a diving expedition to Clive.

Nice! This should become one of those meme things the university types are always talking about.

Anyway, I cannot get too excited about results going our way, of course it helps, but the ball is at our feet, so to speak, and it is up to us to get the results. COYN!

Anyone heard anything about Wehrman? How long will he be out?

Jets are looking less and less likely, yet more injuries: http://au.fourfourtwo.com/News/193899,more-injury-woe-for-branko.aspx
And with this set off games mostly away they look like falling out of the 6.
I don't see the beating GCU, CCM, Us or MV. Sydney are looking on form too if and if key players aren't back it'll be stretch for them to beat them at home too.

Gold Coast United (A)
Wellington Phoenix FC (A)
Melbourne Victory FC (A)
Sydney FC (H)
Perth Glory FC (H)
Central Coast Mariners FC (A)
More good for us I guess.

I thought the results went our way.

Never thought I'd say this, but... all aboard the GCU bandwagon (for the next four days)

They are away at Heart tomorrow and host the Jets on Saturday.

Denying our finals' foes would do us a favour.

come on Smeltz, get a brace for us for these next few games!

Two things in favour of Perth: Heart need to travel to Perth, and Heart haven't played since Jan 2nd.

Could have sworn Melbourne Heart played on the weekend against perth... Terra scored an amazing bicycle kick?

Heart GCU tonight.

Dude, the game you are referring to happened on the weekend...
