Phoenix V's Australia Glory (Pre-Game thread)

Well people what will be the score on Sunday??? Will we win our 1st home game? Hard News2007-09-26 20:02:56

3-0 nix win

Dang straight

0-0

7-0 Nix...I want the australia glory players to be crying as they walk off the park MESSIAH2007-09-26 20:23:37

Please, please, a clean sheet is all I'm asking. After that I don't care if we win by an own goal or a dodgy penalty from a Dan dive.

if the Nix win I will be over the moon, it would be nice to have some goals, but we need the win, although Perth haven't scored many goals they haven't conceded much either. So the Nix to get home by 1-0,2-0,or 2-1. 

If perth were smart they'd just defend till we made a mistake.

Jardel doesn't play for Perth.

I say 3-0 Phoenix.

1 - 0 Dodd to score from a corner

First clean sheet, 2-0.

3-2 to the nix, with lots of spastic/frantic headless chickenesque running around and high blood pressures and ricki grinding his teeth and players falling over slapstick style, and tears and lots of gay laughter when the final whistle blows, and tomfoolery in the stands

3 - 1 Nix!!

They are comming last yet have the 2nd best defence in the league. They cant score so I say we win 1 - 0

1-0 the Nix. I hope we get a decent crowd. Christie will enjoy this game for sure.

Worrying stat...

The weather forecast doesn't look promising, it'll be interesting to see what effect that has on the crowd figure.

And the performance of the game!!

3-1 to the nix!!! stunning goals from feilpe smeltz and daniel.

Yeah, I don't think our Brazilian lads would like playing on a day like today...

Hell no, let's hope they are tough n ready, i doubt Perth will like it either, bloody Aussie poofs

Meant to be the other way.  So warmer, but stronger winds.

Perth have to fly in

That's true. To be honest, I've been secretly hoping for a game with a big southerly and horizontal rain...just to see how the Aussie teams react to it

I heard it was gonna rain and be windy...

US Navy calling it a Northerly though.

Oh crap... the FeverZone in a northerly...  last one to Aisle 1 has to make sure Feverish gets home.

Yep, they would forfeit the game then. 2-0 to us (or is 3-0? I forget now...damn alcohol, killed all my brain cells )

And of course, US Navy has never been wrong before...

Not in any Western Countries.

True, true. I was just reminded of the joke-email that did the rounds a few years back involving a US Navy ship and a Canadian lighthouse...wow, I've really gone off-topic now...

f**k me.  Nervous.  And still four days to go!  But if the Glory's fansite is anything to go by, it'll be a cakewalk for us.  www.gloryboys.net has almost dropped to NZ Knights' confidence levels...

1-0 to phoenix

2-0 phoenix . A scrappy match but the nix come out on top. Goals from Daniel (header) smeltz tap in.

i am hoping 2-0 to phoenix,looking forward to home win hope that sh*t weather stays away,bad enough driving for a couple of hours to game and a couple of hours home without doing it in the rain and wind.worth it though just for crowd noise and hopefully good football 

This is a tough trip for australia glory. They will have to fly via sydney/melbourne or Auckland. A good 12 hours of travel. glory have never done that well on their trips to N.Z. So 2 nil to us.
(edit) I see, they have spent the week in Sydney. So travel not a factor. For that i will give them a goal, 2-1.

I think we are at risk of underestimating Perth (or "misunderestimating" if we are still on the anti-American theme of above).  Against Queensland they looked pretty good in their midfield play but have obviously some problem with putting the small round leather thing in the "old onion bag".  If that comes right for them on Sunday we will have a hard job to get the three points.  I doubt that Ricki will let the team be complacent, even so I reckon a draw is quite likely with Perth's record.

man, i'm more excited about this game than any other so far...except the Melbourne game

I hope it's a drubbing!
