Umm in sydney phoenix are paying $3.65, Draw $3.55, And sydney $1.88.
anyone else going to the game tonight?
I flew over from wellington yesterday(saturday)
Must put a bet on the phoenix. they are paying great odds
Think in NZ the odds are Phoenix $3.40. Sydney $2.00
 
I put a fiver on the Nix at $3.40. Some good odds really... just have to hope we can bring home the win!

On a random note, I flew back home (Christchurch) from Rotorua and I met Greg Draper at the airport.  Couldn't believe my eyes.  I went over to have a yarn with him and asked him if he's being signed on again and he said it isn't decided but he spoke to Ricki yesterday.  He also has no idea what's happening over the Phoenix in the A-league post 2011 debacle (so I'm hoping that doesn't mean nobody there knows).

I'd love to see him play somewhere in the A-League... May not be likely just yet, but I'd be just as happy if he signed for another A-League team and got first team action as if he re-signed for the Phoenix.

Yeah, I'm happy as long as he's in the a-league.  Far out, he's tall as though (not that that's relevant).

Jeez!  I'm getting real nervous.
In the past whenever the phoenix play you really want them to do well....but if they lose then Oh well...there is always next week. But now, there's so much riding on these games. The  pressure is really cranked up. I wonder how the players will respond.
 
Making the playoffs in year two would be phenominal! the benefits would be huge....kudos for the club...maybe more sponsors coming on board. At least one more home game...playoff game at the ROF would surely bring in a big crowd. The players must be feeling the heat. Not many  kiwi players have been in this position before.

It's going to be a close one. The table and past performances this year would suggest Phoenix should bring it home... but home advantage for Sydney and the TAB suggest otherwise!

about Draper- As Leeds Chris pointed out he did all right in the HBU games...is he the only person in the side not to get a run this season??? Apart from Lia of course.

It's definitely at 8pm our time, 6pm Sydney time. Sky are muppets - they can't even promote their own content at the right time.

Perfect weather conditions here in SYD, nice warm day and the wind is starting to cool things down a little. Lets just hope that we can go with it and  get a hatrick of wins over them. Viva La Phoenix 2-1 is my prediction..

good chance early from a free kick and a decent shout for a handball in the box

Bertos turned Cairncross, who was lucky not to get a card for chopping him once he got past
