Assuming no injuries I guess Patterson will come on for McGlinchey after half time.

This is gonna be interesting. Let’s win this.

I reckon the WSW lineup is beatable if do not leak early, and if we do not see Santalab come on too early either.   Their midfield is probably the strongest part of this lineup but their defence looks weakened somewhat. Surprised Gombau chose to leave Clisby on the bench.

Actually, getting outplayed quite a bit these days

COYN. We need this win to get off the bottom of the ladder.

Lately I found you can quietly find one on the utub thingy once the game starts.

Where are the goals going to come from - thats the biggest question for me with this line up.

I think Lujic and Patterson will link up well, they both like to pass and go - so hoping for some nice short interplay when Patterson comes on.

Played a quick game of Nix vs WSW on FIFA before the match, won 2-1 with a deflected volley from Dylan Fox and a tap in from AK cancelling out an early Riera rocket. Would not be too fussed with that result at all

I admit i haven't seen much of him at all but are you sure Monty's a pass and go type of player? Hope you're right, that would be great with Ljujic for sure, but from what I've seen he does Rojas-esque dribbles, bombarding into nowhere before trying to beat a man and getting dispossessed.

AK and Burns are proven goalscorers for us. Lujic and weemac can also contribute. The midfield is probably a bit light on goals overall but is the other end I'm more worried about...

AK has to do more to fit in with Burns IMO. That includes finishing some with his feet! Hopefully this will happen. Coaches' problem.

Yeah - I hope we have enough pace at the back

Fox is a better option than Rossi, as proven in previous games.

We will miss Doyle. 

It's a bold move for the coach to put Dr Libby on the field from kickoff. Best of luck to the lad.

Great to see Cacace starting.  Get Singh out there for McGlinchy for some good game time and i'd be pretty happy regardless of the result.  We need to start getting some game time into these young guys - the seasons goooooone.

Edit: Also happy to see Fox back starting.

It's bad when i agree with the sharkty commentator that the nix are a pretty big waste of space in the league atm. We are the worst team by miles.

Have you watched the last couple of games? We gifted two goals in a row last week and looks like we are doing it again.

That's the thing the team is better than the goals gifted because they're the individual howlers. That's why they aren't miles worse
