Sarpong in just to give us a full squad?

Na **two to be omitted** according to the page so you are probably looking at the youngsters then that will be omitted on game day. Patrick did tweet the other day that Sarpong was training and looked ok. So I'm taking what he said as gospal and Sarpong is ok.

I'm an optimistic pessimist. 
I'm positive things will go wrong.

id like to see us go for a 442 set up.

gulley. Durante.   Doyle.  Danaskos

Saprong. Riera. Lia. Mcgarry

        Powell.       McG

McG to play just in behind Powell.

We have lacked width and don't have bonevancia to create through the center.

Anyone know when the Brisbane team arrive? Hopefully about now and have shat themselves on the plane ride in!

Hopefully they land in Nelson and have to take the ferry across!

Hey what time do the Fever normally show up at the bencher?

Consider Ernie's reluctant to play Powell, might I suggest a formation that QPR have adopted for the last 6 games which is pissing everyone off big time. A 4-6-0 formation, played at Home, effectively killing any chance of the home team scoring. Away from home QPR have been playing a 6-4-0 formation with similar results. I feel so sorry for Charlie Austin - allegedly currently injured.

So, according to Stuff, Fox may well be starting.

Will it be Gulley, Fox, Dura and Danaskos; Ridenton, Lia, Riera and Mikey; Powell & Appiah?

Not reflection on Fox, but this Sunday I am expecting the worst for us so anything above it will make for a good evening. I want to enjoy the game so here's hoping we do alright.

We would need the plane to crash to have any chance

Still some quality players in that squad, and some who may really want to be making a name for themselves. Maybe getting a bit more space, having a bit more responsibility and being the serious underdogs might inspire some performances?

Yeah I don't think it would take a plane crash for us to win, that is a bit pessimistic.

You often see fringe players play out of their skin because they are fighting for that first team spot and don't get many opportunities to impress.

And nothing like an opposition expecting a team to be weak and leaving a few too many gaps to make for a wicked upset.

It varies depending on day of the week and kick-off time.
But I suspect this Sunday there'll be some people in by 4.30 PM, so that half-an-eye can be kept on the ASB Premiership game on the telly.

i kind of agree with this but it is usually 1 or 2 fringe players that can impress with the rest of the team but almost a team of fringe players may be a little different. still hoping for a decent game and hopefully we can sneak a win or a draw at the very least.

bringing 4 extras today including my grandaughter who has never been to a phoenix game.she has seen all my signed shirts and wants to bring something so she can get in on the signature collecting.

On a serious note, I'm expecting us to be down 3-4 at half time so will probably come home then and watch The Martian. Apparently Matt Damon puts on a great performance. Looking forward to it.
