Funny you mention mowing pattern. That's been a debacle. Long story short phoenix/ffa win but = more work for me.

So that's a very reluctant no.

Fuck this stupid game

Just realised, this'll be Jeronimo's first game against us in NZ.

I still haven't forgiven him for diving against us.

Lineup for this game, if all are fit must be the same XI that beat Melbourne. Personally i disagree with Lia (Becomes a passenger after about 35mins) being in the team at all, but for some reason if it worked to such an extent that we beat Victory 5-0, why change it?

Tactical sub at half time(Brisbane game) in terms of changing formation to be narrower was mind boggling, reverting to the 433 with Cunningham and Boyd out wide who both have pace and movement (I'm looking at you Jeremy) is a strength that we haven't had for ages. Use the strengths we have. 

Youth should be played at every chance. Sure, Hicks might not be quite as clinical as Lia but he's not far behind, much fitter and he's so much younger, so he'll get better with age (Lia won't :P)

Boyd got pulled at half time for been ineffectual and Ernie noted they haven't got much out of him in the last two games.

I'd expect to seem him benched again and brockie starting once more. Not sure I agree with this if it happens, but its what i expect.

pax anyone?

I reckon ernie will show boyd a little more faith than that - he gave Brockie a good run before benching him - sure briockie has worked hard when he has come on but I think Boyd deserves a bit more time to get used t starting.

I have a bad feeling about this game. 11 left, only 4 in Wellington. These home-away-from-home games always suck, I reckon theyre going to be the difference between making the top 6, and well... not.

Ticketmaster.

There's no number like the PAX on Ticketek tickets.

Most important game of the season I recon, three games against Adelaide so good to show them who's boss from the start - also another team who's moving up the ranks.

Can you buy tickets at the Ticketek place in Birkenhead? or is Ticketmaster a completely different outlet?

Got to win it.  Still think as victory match was our best performance of the season we should be starting with that side, injuries permitting.

Gutted I can't be up in Dorkland for this one. Was on the radar for a trip up in the Hawkes Bay Fever Bus then found out the Hastings Open golf was on same weekend.

Would be like trying to order a Big Mac at a Burger King. Or starting a chant (any chant) at a Canes game.

First game.

Big and angry when they couldn't get in because of Eden Pk ticket-staff faffing over seat position/type etc. If it's a hot sunny day it will happen again so get there early -ish if you haven't got a ticket.

Btw any word on who's playing in this 'celebrity' curtain-raiser?
