phoenix vs. tards

No, just no.

There's an ACL spot up for grabs this weekend. Melbourne, Adelaide and Queensland all want it.

There will be no reason for Adelaide to not go for broke against CCM on Sunday after the Friday and Saturday results. If Queensland beats Perth by 2 or more at home (as they are expected to), it means Adelaide will have to win to claim the minor premiership.

Melbourne of course will want to spank us to get themselves in the hunt.

Melbourne weren't great against CCM and were lucky to win 3-0. We're gonna have to show a lot more than we have in away games (we've lost our past three away).

If we can't win, I'd still rather have a draw and mean that we WILL finish 5th and most likely cost those Tards the automatic ACL berth.

Well done Wellington, you just gave Melbourne the premiership. Now everyone hates you! Besides Melbourne. By the way, could you not put Moss in goals because he's like.. going to Melbourne next season?? All Moss has to do is let 3 or 4 goals in on purpose and he will be off to the ACL next year.
So please, Australia is relying on you to beat Melbourne.

Thanks, on behalf of Australia excluding Melbourne.


Also, if you beat the tards, we will repay you by beating CCM. Wellington is my 2nd favorite A-League team.
So i hope you do well in the finals, but i would rather beat Melbourne in the grand final than Wellington. Thanks.

And the winner of stupidest post of there year goes to......

Not sure about that looking at a couple of the teams that have been put i reckon there are acouple of others who will go close.

we'll beat melbourne, you beat the coast next week and we're even

My post wasn't stupid, its a serious matter!

It was seriously stupid

Good luck to your lads next week - I don't want Queensland to win the Premiership, and next week's fixture means I don't want Melbourne to win either!

No I think this is the stupidest post. No McKain...... What?

Kad have you actually made any intelligent posts in the 23 you have made since you joined?

Well atleast with Wyners he does it on purpose this guy (Kad9) is simply an idiot. wellyphoenixfan2009-01-19 20:18:12

It is humourous from United123 but if Melbourne were to win then Moss would get to play in Asia next year.........
Back on track - he's not that stupid!
Is he?

Brown has done us a disservice by getting the cards, so McKain will have to play like he did yesterday.
Daniel's only got 45 minutes in him so I'll be interested if it's at the start or end. I'm picking the end. Costa to get another crack.

So you wouldn't play one of our best players in the most important game of our club history.

Hell yes - but I don't get it. You're a Paston fan!

He may be fat, but can he play? Any Nix player played at the standard he has.

"We must break you."

We gave you guys Moss for next year in exchange for the last game of the season.

No dice.

I was talking about McKain not Mr Over-rated.wellyphoenixfan2009-01-19 22:18:02

Worried there big guy?

im sure Moss will be giving it 100% so he's the AW's number 1 for confeds cup etc

Can't wait for this game.  Basically McKain has to be brutal and has to cripple there midfield (I'm not speaking in metaphors).  It's inevitible he'll get a redcard so he has to take a couple of them out with him   Yes, he'll be suspended next week, but we'll have Brown back who can do the same and then for the game after that we'll have McKain back again (and it keeps going like that).

Moss has everything to play for. He isn't gauranteed the keeper spot at Melbin next year if Theo is still around so he has to impress against his new team

I think you've run out of games LG

Don't mean to rehash old ground but losing Brown is a crucial blow. He was definitely the player we needed against a side like Melbourne. just because some dickhead referee screwd up we losea vital player(the first yellow was no contact therefore no yellow)

That was a late and dangerous tackle - imo, the referees are well within their rights to discourage that sort of play, even if no contact is made. A more experienced ref may have just told Brown to calm it down rather than issuing a yellow, but that's a moot point. Once on a yellow, Brown should have known better.

This..ain't...over!.

Agree first challenge was reckless and having got the first yellow he was always going to be gone for the second foul and was just plain dumb if he thought different.

Agree that the first card was harsh, but the second yellow was clear as day.

On another note, IIRC Durante was great against Melbourne when we won 2-1.  

It may not happen but.......

                  Moss

Durante     Siggy      Dodd      Muscat

Herbert wont drop Lochhead for the most important game of the year. hockeycam2009-01-20 16:17:54

As long as Herbert makes a forceful and tactical substitution if we are a goal up with 10mins to play (ie screw defence and search for the killer blow with at least 3 up front.) He needs to grow some nuts and give us what we want!!!
