Not if they're favs - and I can only assume they are - you might only win $1 back

1. Higher on the table

2. Haven't lost away from home

3. Pumped us in our last meeting not so long ago ...

Didn't we beat them over there? So we should loose and win the next one there?

Yes. The game with the questionable lino call which lead to all sorts going down on here.

Three for me, and two for them.

Sydney are playing pretty well at the moment.  It could go either way.  Hopefully we show up with massive balls to win this one.

If Newcastle can score three goals against them as happened last weekend, then so can we - maybe even four.

I thought their defence looked pretty shaky last weekend.

Their defence has been erratic - their last ten games have included 3-3, won 4-2, won 4-3, won 5-4, won 4-3

So in four out of ten games they've conceded three or more goals...

They have admittedly scored 27 goals in those ten games but the Nix have a better defensive record than the teams that Sydney has hammered.

I remember we said that last time.  It didn't work out well.  Can't see a clean sheet for either team in this one.

Boxall will score a header (OFF A CORNER) in the 95th minute to win it for us 2-1

Roly with the other goal.

Ool that is a big change for the final game of the regular season. Would still rather have arod in there over Fenton n lia. His all round game is better than both of theirs. Putting one of them in there might work. But both? Surely that would create an imbalance.
I have an amazing ability to find my way out of mazes. I'm pathological.

Fenton in midfield is surprising, but perhaps they are just practicing Plan B because it worked so well last week. It said that Muscat was in the reserve team so would that mean starting Doyle in a Fenton midfield scenario?

That boy is developing into quite a utility player.

I read that and think he wants Lia for a bit of grunt and Fenton for pace in the midfield. I find that odd cause he sacrifices pace up front in Krishna who is not exactly slow.

I suppose if SFC press very well (which they did last month), being able to beat a man in midfield helps create overloads and space.

If that's the line up then i'm happy with it, except for  Lia starting over A Rod. I think Fenton has been really good lately and last week his switch to midfield worked wonders. Krishna in my opinion is out of form and Boxall is simply a beast and has to start. COYN
