Looks like it might be WeeMac back into the Midfield, with Griff coming into the Starting line-up. Will probably make for a slightly different frmation than normal.

Good, WeeMac is not and never will be a striker. His pass is way better than his shot

Has been playing as a false 9 ; drops back into midfield anyway - hasn't been playing as a classic striker.

If that formation is how we lineup then WeeMac and Roly are going to have to do a lot of work to help A-Rod out on defence, because its usually him and/or Lia helping Riera out in that area

We've got a little bit of a treat in store for you in the Zone just before kickoff.

Some of you might not be able to get to your seats because of it though, so if that's you, just be patient and your seats will be ready for you straight after it finishes (right before kickoff). Thanks team.

did someone get a new pullover for Easter Patrick?

I expect we'll be hearing plenty of retro chants....I I Iiffy; nothing like Tim Brown; we've got the best Muscat in the League; Muscat, Muscat what's the score?

I think this is bigger than the finals serious,  we win this we can be champions.  Finals serious is just some end of season cup competition.  The Champion is the team on top of the league at the end of the regular season.  Dont for a second think I wouldnt like to see us win the grand final,  I would just love to see us be Champions

Yup you are probably right, although hype for those games was bigger
