FWIW, Prime are showing the game live tonight. They've offered highlights packages so far this season, but never live action. I wonder what the thinking is behind this decision? 

Probably something to do with it being the first game at ‘Sky’ stadium.

Ah, makes sense. Will the stadium now shed the name Cake Tin? How about Sky Sponge?

PAX was 9210 a few hours ago but should be decent roll-up with this weather.

CCM will be really up for this, especially in midfield where they are very good with disputed possession.

Should be a top game.

Any let-up in intensity will cost us, but then I think this Ufuk side has a totally different mentality to most previous Nix outfits, other than the Ifill/Greenacre big year.

I could say much more positive things about where we could end up this season, but am so used to inconsistency

with the Phoenix over the years, that I don't want to pre-empt anything !    

But hey - it's not away to Perth, and if we're to be any chance of winning this thing, then you have to win this game.

looking forward to game just a bit worried about traffic on the way down, might be lucky to make kickoff if as busy as other seasons at this time of the year.cannot leave any earlier as people i am bringing work this morning.

It took me 3 hours to get down from Palmy last year for a game around this time and I missed the first 10 minutes of the game. Leaving a bit earlier this year and hoping the traffic isn't so bad.

Levin and Otaki were a nightmare yesterday and that was heading north against the main flow

You must have missed the subtle hints Talay has been dropping, like him saying they were targeting to have him ready for this game ...

Hopefully it's more than just a half this time.

If he does get injured it's now going to be all your fault.

Fair point, but they switched it off during the applause.

He's been given some defensive duties to fit Hooper into the front line, not surprising he's quiet, but he has been getting back on defence
