The problem with Nelsen is that you can't autocorrect Nelson.

Worked quite well with Kosta Rica ...


Yeah exactly. Nelson will just have to rename their town Nelsen. I believe that is how it is correctly pronounced and spelt in Maori anyway.


Nelshen?

Somewhere along the line Nel is turning in his grave that one of his descendants couldn't spell very well.

Can't believe that the Oz TAB has us at $6.50 for the win.

If I was a gambler I would have $100 on that.

If you are old and wise you were probably young and stupid

We had a bye a couple of weeks ago. I would have thought if a player did need a rest, even if just a mental refresher, the timing doesn't make much sense. Against his old team as well.


You don't think that Hersi being out might possibly have influenced the decision?


I was pondering that, but if anything Hersi being in may have enforced a rest?

Completely agree SJ (although I seriously do not rate Hersi but I accept I am in the minority)

$6.50? That's does seem a bit long with the amount of players they are missing.

Edit: I see it's dropped to $3.50 looking right now.

I think ballane should get it for free too. He's been here since day one, so shouldn't have to pay for things like match day programmes.

Reira isn't a fullback IMO, I would not like to see him starting at LB. Remember the stint he had at RB off the bench earlier in the season, did not look at home as a fullback. Rather Manny at LB and Reira DM for this one.

I also haven't been hugely enamoured by Kenny but he looked good last week so deserves a start with Brockie out.

Played a few games for ACFC as a LB. Got a couple of MOM awards.

Interesting. Didn't know that. Sure didn't look comfortable there for the Nix.

You could give him a free seat in gareths executive box with free piss and food and he'd still find something to bitch about. Sorry but after being banned he comes back and is as negative as ever. Oh and 83 consecutive home based a league games for me. Yep, not missed one, now give me a friggen medal - not! It doesn't make me special.

It's still bloody impressive though LG. Even I've missed one or two in there. Hopefully you can reach the century!

Even I have missed 1 home game. 6-0 will never live it down. Had to drive to Carrot town and explain to manager why I had to have him turn off ski video's.

100 is my target. I've done shit loads of shift swaps to keep it going. After 100, I'll still try and make them but the pressure will be off! hehehe.

Not really sure what you are going on about TODAY is the first time i have logged on since October so not sure what your prattling about "as being negative as ever".As for being negative give it up have you read some of the stuff posted by some.Really its a  case of pot kettle black in many cases. 

Not to worry guess its easier to just go with the crowd LG. Good to see that obviously you and none of the others have never posted anything negative about any subject on the site.
See you at the game,but not here sadly.
Look forward to reading all the positive  comments whatever the result after the game sunday.Im guessing the forums will be negativity free from know on.

Drama on the forum today!

Anyway looking forward to this one. Will be interesting to see if Kenny starts tomorrow. TBH I wouldn't mind if either Kenny or Ifill start in the place of Brockie but I think Kenny showed the goods last week.

He's not that bloody accurate

He is if he gets the ball while on the ground, on edge of the area, back to goal, gets up beats two, the balls bounces, hits his knee and goes between two defenders legs and under the keepers armpit in to the goal.
One on one? The wall would be safe
