League Table 2016/17

Have to agree.  One article I read saying we are closer to the bottom than the top 6.  You'd have to say playoffs is impossible now, and we don't deserve to be there anyway.

#embrace the spoon

Well done Feverbot. It's not often that a table lines up with the Goal Diffs in correct numerical order.

Still rocking 8th place.  Never thought I'd be so pleased to say that.

I thought this was quite interesting/telling....

With our strongest back four starting (Tratt, Dura, Rossi, Doyle) we've conceded 9 goals in 8 games (1.1 goals a game)

When our strongest back four aren't starting we've coneded 25 goals in 12 games (2.1 goals a game) 

WSW do have an ACL campaign to content with. think I read they've never won a game the weekend after an ACL game.

Fingers crossed.

Little Nix, eerily like the Big Nix

Speaking of WSW, is it possible that they may get a point deduction after the whole Graham Arnold sucking on a schlong tifu? They've been warned/ fined plenty of times before... Would help us out a bit too!

Nope. $20,000 fine.

That seems like a tap on the wrist especially since they had the point deduction/fine hanging over their head from excessive flares that was suspended... Darn! Now we've got to perform like a Top Six side to finish in the Top Six. 

The threat of a points deduction is a joke. Just take the damn points off them. It looked nothing like Arnold anyway.

Feverbot alseep?

Incredible season

We want a draw today Jets and Mariners.

No cause the Jets will go above us on goal difference. CCM win and we stay where we are

1 nil CCM win would suit me

Top 5 reasonably secure, but a real scrap for the 6th. 4 teams in it still you'd think. We've got a tough run in, though. 

Victory and Sydney might not have much to play for by the time we face them. Hopefully they rest some key players against us.

Could the club try and ask nicely again to have the March game against Newcastle postponed?

Results are falling in our favour... FeverBot stop toying with my emotions please...

This was posted on A-League facebook page. Shows the coaching bounce we got and makes Sydney even more impressive that they have been in first place since round 1

That table also has a feature that shows recent form over the past 6 games. Perth are top of the table, equal on points with Sydney. Hopefully we can knock them off of their stride on Saturday

Not anymore! The results across the league over the past 2-3 weeks have favoured us, our season has signs of life!

Sure makes our next game with WSW an all at stake game

They have, and we've barely capitalised on them.

Now WE need to do our bit and play 90 minutes and result in a win.
