Nix vs Brisbane Roar, Sunday 7pm SS3

Game Day, yusssssssssss.  Put a lazy $5 on the Phoenix, so here goes.  Being a Phoenix supporter these days is a bit like being a Liverpool supporter - so heartbreaking at times.  As one wit put though, I don't have the life skills to cope with being a supporter of Liverpool - and that is how I sometimes feel with the 'Nix. So up and down, like a roller-coaster.   Would just like us to thrash a side, and surprise us all.

We want 6

I'd just be happy if we keep them down to 2 or 3 goals, the way things have been going lately..

C'mon boys... don't do another Arsenal on me. How I have hair I'll never know!

Maybe Ricki has been listening to the Podcasts, that's the call Hard News would make.

 With Lia at RB how long into the game before he gets a card?

Lia at RB is always a disaster. Crap.

 As an Queenslander and ex Roar player, I think Cernak could be the one to shine today.

Reckon he will be trying to prove a point.

"It means a reshuffle with Vince Lia moving to right back, Isaka Cernak dropping into midfield with Manny Muscat and Tyler Boyd joining the attack alongside Paul Ifill, Louis Fenton and debutant Corey Gameiro."

Game day fire up. Coyn

On our way to the game to create loud noises

Does that mean Cernak is dropping back to play with Muscat, or that Muscat and Boyd are going forward into the attack?

Thought so, but grr, bad grammar!

Cernak to DM.... Great.

That's not me being a Nazi, that is me reading something completely different to what was meant. I even asked Piney if he knew why Manny was being moved into attack.

 I'm skiving off one of my regular commitments to watch tonight's game. The boys better not make me regret my decision.

I'm intrigued.... What commitments ?

But, I thought we were good mates ?

 big day for NZ sport- what are the chances of 3 good results?

no overwhelming favourites- Nix and cricketers certainly don't have the form- though black caps and Miss Ko have put themselves in with a grin.

Hopefully the 'Nix can do the same and better!!

Fark at WSW their bench: Mooy, Haliti and Shannon Cole- you'd think at least two of them would be automatic starters for us, if not all three.

link?

Still feeling the effects from staying up for Rovers this morning. Hoping I can get 2 wins today! #DontStopBelievin

Leo on the bench? Didn't we take a 16th man over to Brisbane?

The way the Nix have been playing, perhaps they could employ "The 12th Man":. At least we'd get some decent laughs for our money. Still, fingers crossed for a surprise away win!

Halloran v Lia is making me break out in cold sweats already

 Pitch is rubbish.

Totori to score phoenix's first hat trick ! COYN !
