nice one

Picking:

                Moss

Fenton Dura Siggy Caira

   Hicks    Manny    Lia

               Carlos

      Brockie    Waffles

Iffy & Kenny to get time off the bench.

seems to be the most logical choice - I just hope that the front three put some pressue on the keeper and score some goals, I'd still prefer Reira instead of Lia but I can't see it happening.

please let it be the real pav, please

hilarious stuff

I think Bertos will be on the bench. I hope Fentons positional woes are behind him after hopefully being worked on significantly over the last fortnight. He looks to have the right skill set but so far has had a couple of shockers and will almost certainly be targeted again.

What we do up front is the real issue that needs to be resolved though. Still no real indication what the best front 3 or 4 players are or how we intend to create goals. Needs to be sorted as soon as possible.

The thought of ADP runing at Louie scares me a bit, which is why I would have Manny at RB

I would be very very very surprised if it is the real Pav. Just some 10 year old kid who thinks he's being funny. Don't jump to conclusions guys, Mirjan is probably a reasonably decent human being, unlike this troll.

Its probably someone like Stu Hogg or some other angry little dwarf.

The one I feel sorry for is Ernie. He really has had a shit opening start to the season with an unsettled line up through internationals along with 'home games' on the road. A 3rd of the season gone and now things will settle down for him to a simple home and away draw (and 1 in Auckland)

5 games into a 27 game season???

Haha, no worries JV. I was just shocked that a third of the season had gone and I'd only been to one game so far :)

2-1 to the Black and Yella! COYN!

Ernie will probably be more concerned about fans being patient as he works the jigsaw out. Think that lineup is spot on. Still think Cunningham will have a lot to offer, despite being hammered a bit on this forum.    

1 a league start 2 goals. What a record

swap reira for lia, send lia to estonia to research deep lying inverse trequartista until march, manny into right back, fenton in midfield, and wtf - boxall for siggy

Is it a 7 pm or 7:30 pm kick off?

7:30 pm according to the fixtures but 7 pm on this thread (special Bling time zone?).

Sorry. My fault

Where are the boys meeting up pre game for all the fellas that are going sydney

Sydney, January 2013. Ricky Herberts halftime talk, a second before he kicked the bottle on the floor. Phoenix 5 down. I guess he is blaming the players not following his tactics.

The point of the above is lost on me

This must be the shortest match thread ever. Guess we all got caught up in the Mexico games.

I hope the Four Kings is a bit more livelier..

i cant wait to see the nix play again, it feels like a 2nd off season waiting between games like this

also, the new sydney serbian guy seems like a cocky twat from the interview i saw today. he'll fit in fine to their squad, and i hope siggy puts him on his arse

I think we're going tear you guys up tonight, to be honest.

Which probably means we'll get "arse blasted".

By now the "Spectators" also is proving to be a reliable spot for us in Christchurch. Easy to park and walk in, good front-row couches, burger and chips option cheap and good quality. As a plus the beer choice is good.

meanwhile back in Wellington the spiritual home of the Nix...
