There was that ACFC Waitakere game at NHS around then when Ricki Van Steeden got utterly poleaxed by Commins Menapi.

What was that one.


2007


Yep, that would have been it. WUFC was the home team but their home ground was unavailable for some reason I forgot.

No, you misunderstand. The ACFC fans I met at 2007 (fixed) were lovely people. The ones I meet on this forum are generally numpties who are full of bitterness. I'll never forget the time they chased away that foreign football journo from their forum because they thought he was a Nix fan trolling.

WSW game is at Lily Homes Stadium, 7:15pm kick off. $15 Adult, limited to 4k tickets aparently.

Tickets are $15 (plus assorted booking and credit card fees, flare supplements etc) through Proticket. Hopefully I'm not going to be the only nix fan there.

Not much chatter about the game tonight... is there going to be any form of coverage? Dodgy cameras, twitter feeds etc.

Sounds like Dura, Iffy & Lia are crook, and Brockie and Cunningham are not here yet. Possible starting lineup?

Fenton    Boxall   Siggy   Caira

           Manny    Thompson

Probably a pretty good guess. Has Leo had much of a run this season? He could get a start rather than 2 young guys up front.

I don't think Boyds back to full fitness yet either and he certainly doesnt have a left foot
More likely above with Stevens for Boyd with a reserve keeper, Adams, Ridenton, Gulley, Lia and Watson on the bench with one more? Perhaps Hudson-Wihongi or Shermy>

I saw him 4:30 am in the waiting room of a whorehouse on Kensington Street. Don't ask me what I was doing there.

You seem to have an intimate knowledge of the Wgtn night scene.

Front 4 probably more like this I'd say.

EDIT: Excuse me, Watson is playing out on the left, Huyse up front.

Half time 0-0. Sounds like a pretty even game. From what I can gather from tweets Phoenix dominated the first 15 then WSW had a decent spell then it evened out. Hernandez seems to be mentioned a fair bit, must be involved a lot which is good news.

I see Thompson got on at 67 mins. Beats me why they didn't start him. It's not like Ernie wouldn't already know what Manny or Lia have to offer. I know building combinations blah blah, but really.
